Lol, Walmart is not a gas station.
Pff. You don’t go inside and pay at the checkout. You pay outside. At the station.
What’s the point arguing with Imp’scum? Not once in his entire history here has he ever admitted to being wrong; never admitted to the possibility of being wrong; never even admitted to the legitimacy of a differing POV. He’s 110% right 110% of the time, everyone else is equally wrong, end of story.
When even Alderaan and Mala are arguing against his viewpoint, you know he’s 110% wrong.
At least he brings us all together. 😉
Schlocky '70s/'80s-type horror/sci-fi musicals need to make a resurgence.
I’m not against this, but, despite some of them being right up my alley, I don’t like any of em.
The only musicals I like are the Blues Brothers and Hedwig and the Angry Inch.
Why are you buying anything from your gas station? (other than gas, of course)

Well the big chain has stations are probably okay. In fact Casey’s have really good pizza that’s actually prepared fresh on location and not shipped in Frozen and it’s as good as any chain pizza joint.
I highly doubt that.
JEDIT: nvm, you said “chain” pizza joint. Still I wouldn’t trust anything at a gas station.
Well the one where I live you can actually see the kitchen, they have actual food workers not just the clerk running back and forth throwing things in the microwave like other gas station food.
Apparently where Frink lives it’s still 1975 and every gas station is a dingy den of filth. Most of the stations in my city look like sterilized, futuristic diners with gas pumps out front.

If they have an actual kitchen then they’re not a gas station, they just happen to also sell gas.
Meh. If I can by gas there, it’s a gas station.
Buy that argument some grocery stores are gas stations. And Costco/BJ’s/Sam’s club/etc
If someone from out of town was staying with me, need to get gas and I directed them to the walmart down the street, nobody’s gonna argue that it isn’t a gas station.
So I’ll still stand by it.
(these semantics are fun. Been dealing with semantics that aren’t all day.)

Whew. Glad that’s sorted.
^ Yes. And the Shaw ghost doesn’t look older than Obi-Wan’s at all.
Respect? I dunno. I’ve heard that he’s still in the official SE credits, too.
JEDIT: 005 beat me.
It always seemed to me that twist was meant to cash-in with Vader’s own revelation, and on its downside it shrunk that universe further. However, it’s not enough to ruin the movie for me, as the payoff to that sisterhood is Luke’s brief taste of the Dark Side, which is one the better scenes in the trilogy. The progression of the Skywalker/Vader narrative, while bumpy still managed to provide a satisfiying whole despite its improvised nature.
It feels to me like Lucas was tired, didn’t want to do any more Star Wars movies and having Leia be the sister wrapped up the triangle with Han easily
Having Leia and Han fall in love in ESB wrapped up that triangle already.
I’d like to see the original song return, but instead of stopping to watch a musical number, it’s just in the background like the band in the bar in Star Wars.
Cats or Cookies?
A thread that classifies and separates the Cool Cats from the Cookie Crunchers.What.
Drugs thread.
If my translator is operating at peak efficiency, I’d warrant “Cool Cats” refer to he-men
women haterswho swear like sailors, smoke like chimneys, and drink like fish while “Cookie Crunchers” refer to limp-wristed momma’s boys who eat dainty pastries.
I’ll take it.

All I know of it is that .gif and the first three segments of that video you linked. I gotta check this out!
I like this one.
That makes me happy!
Do they still make ‘sea foam green’ crayons?
This is fantastic.
Desserts? The kids table is that way.
I think I love Devo more than most people love anything.
What I mean when I tell the waitress to “Fill it up.”
Arguably indeed good sir!
Again, just a personal peeve. I’m sure I’ll survive. 😉
Obi-Wan tells Luke “your father wanted you to have [the lightsaber] when you were old enough.” He also mentions Owen being afraid Luke would follow Obi-Wan on some “idealistic crusade” like Anakin.
This one bugs me because you can’t really justify it as Obi-Wan simply lying about Luke’s father. Why even bring it up? All he needed to say is “by the way, I have your father’s lightsaber, if you want it.” Why even mention anything about the “idealistic crusade” or Anakin wanting Luke to have the lightsaber?
It is psychology.
It is quite clear from the dialogs, that Luke probably idolizes his father, as he jumps right away when his father is mentioned in any way, because he represents something that he dreams of.
Obi-wan knows this, and tells this lie to Luke to motivate him, to manipulate him. Obi-wan wants him to believe that he can actually do something, that his father always wanted him to do.If he’d say what you suggest, that “by the way, I have your father’s lightsaber, if you want it.”, it would only mean that he gets an object, that he can put in a drawer, and Obi-wan would not get the result he wants.
You can work around it that way, sure. But it would have been better if the PT actually connected to the OT and this would have been a strong moment of connection.
Or you can do what that other guy does and just assume everyone is constantly lying and just not pay much attention while the movie is on and give it no thought once it’s over.
I’ve found the best way while watching the movies is to just take it as it comes and don’t assume anything you hear is the truth. And just don’t think about it too much.
ALLOL
But it’s not a creation of MST3K.
Just a little peeve of mine.
I often hear people say that the quote “I don’t try anything. I just do it. Wanna try me?” is from White Zombie’s Thunderkiss '65. The quote is used in Thunderkiss, but it’s from Faster Pussycat Kill Kill!
