More MST3K coming in November

Nice! More MST3K means more money in Rhino's pocket from me. It's good to see 4 out at once instead of just 2.

I like the plea for more extras, too. There's something funny about the fact that these movies are so worthless they can't even dig up some extras.

 

After these, I think the only eps Rhino has left (that they've already done on tape) are:
Pod People
Cave Dwellers
Sidehackers
The Unearthly
Angels' Revenge
Gunslinger
The Atomic Brain
I know MST3k has rights issues and all, but this pace is just killing me.

 

The next wave of new releases (after the tape episodes are exhausted) should include The Painted Hills, The Black Scorpion, Robot Monster, and Gorgo since they're all owned or distributed by WB. (Rhino has a 3-D version of Robot Monster on tape, so that would be a neat extra)

Also, Horrors of Spider Island, Hamlet, Girl In Gold Boots, The Screaming Skull, The Phantom Planet, Devil Doll, The Incredibly Strange Creatures..., and countless other episodes feature public domain movies.

The only movies which really have extensive rights problems are MGM-owned films (Orion and post-1960 AIP), Universal-owned films, and the Sandy Frank-owned movies...the Gamera movies. Perhaps Universal can control the episodes featuring their movies, MGM can do the Orion and AIP episodes, and Sandy Frank can be blackmailed. (He is extremely protective over the Gamera movies for some moronic reason.)

 

Crap. more already-available-on-VHS releases. I guess I can give up hope that Rhino will release any new titles.

 

Whatever happened to the promise that Rhino would release 50 episodes on VHS? 50 episodes are NOT on VHS OR DVD...

 

When Rhino first announced that they were going to release episodes on DVD VHS, they promised something like 20 per year. I believe that was back around 1996 or so. So their expectations have fallen a little short.

 

THE CREEPING TERROR!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my god, the best "Mike" episode ever. Period. Dear lord, please include the special promo Comedy Central ran the week before this episode ran. Yes, CC actually made a unique ad just for this episode, it's *that* *funny*.

 

Where is SANTA CLAUS CONQUERS THE MARTIANS!!!!!

 

I want WAR OF THE COLLOSAL BEAST, just for MISTER B NATURAL. IMHO the best short ever featured on the program.

 

Steve,
did you e-mail the comments place, to tell them about this advertisement extra?
Maybe CC would give it up.?
Looking foward to all these.

 

Yay! More MST on DVD! I have all eight currently available and the movie as well. I'm extremely proud of this collection and I plan to own 'em all.

Dumb question: Does "4-pack" mean they all come together??
