Like "Master Ninja 1 & 2, Fugitive Alien 1 & 2, or any Gamera film
are presented in a "Completely serious tone"...
SCCTM was indeed terrible, but I wouldn't say that any of its truly 
cheesy aspects were really intentional, although they were motivated
by large absences of budget. It's just cheap. Love those Wham-O
Air Blasters!  
I keep hoping they will dig up the other mutant X-Mas film of my
early life: Santa Claus. Not the Dudley Moore/John Lithgow stinker
of a few years back, but the original, K. Gordon Murray, atrocity!
Santa Claus must defeat the evil Red Devil <?>, a guy in red tights
with horrible Spock ears. Laff riot.

According to a posting on alt.tv.simpsons I read last night, it is

newsgroup mentioned that Josh is a 1988 Stanford grad (I hope I

This sounds about right. I think Servo makes mention of "There were other
8 (maybve he says 12) episode action adventure series, like Manimal, Automan,
etc..." and I think it would've been right in that ballpark.
If you think the movies are bad, I watched the whole series when it was first
run! Too terrible to miss.

   Sahl's career was actually destroyed by Papa Joe Kennedy, who
didn't like Sahl making up jokes about his son.  (Many humorless
Democrats of the day thought it was outright traitorous for him to
have told jokes about Eisenhower, and then later tell jokes about
Kennedy.)  Ironic, isn't it?  Sahl has made a nice comeback, by the
way, and is still doing standup -- I saw him a couple of years ago in
his Broadway one-man show.  He's still doing what he does best -
telling jokes about the powerful and the pompous.

This is from An Officer and a Gentleman, in the scene where Louis Gossett
tells Richard Gere he's going to kick him out.  The full quote is "Don't
you do it!  I got nowhere else to go!", said in a cracking voice...Tom
Servo is usually (always?) the one who does this one, and sometimes he

Lloyd:  Thank god.  My lungs were aching for air!

I know that there are probably some people who think this is a work of genius,
but I found "Eraserhead" to be so amazingly boring as to be undredeamable even
by the SOL.  I had to bite myself to stay awake (and it wasn't fun) because of
a perverse family streak that means that once we start watching a movie we have
to see it through until the end.
