Mystery Science Theater 3000 (1988–1999; 2017–2018) is an American TV show that mocks bad movies by riffing on their strange characters, absurd settings, and silly plot twists, interspersing erudite cultural quips with schoolboy jokes and general zaniness. There are 198 movies, 60 shorts, and 4 specials in the MST3K canon. (See Notes below for help on using this page.)

[Ator and Thong are attacked by invisible enemies.] Joel: I don't believe it — they were too cheap to hire villains in this movie.

[…] learned aerodynamics…

[Ator glides over the castle walls, dropping hand-made bombs on the guards.] Servo: Message for you, sir! Oh, he also made bombs while he was up there. Joel: Looks like he's gonna carpet-bomb.

[Despite flying over a castle amidst a mountain range, Ator brings his glider in for a landing in an open field.] Joel: Oh, he's landing in the outback now. [The scene then switches to Ator landing on top of said castle.] Crow: Uh— huh? Joel: How'd he do that? Servo [as Ator]: How'd I do that?

Joel: Yeah.

[As the military prepares to destroy Gamera, little Kenny runs up to Dr. Murase and the General.] Kenny: Don't shoot Gamera! Don't shoot Gamera! He's good, he's good! Joel [as Dr. Murase]: Let's listen to what Kenny has to say! Dr. Murase: Yes. It might be a mistake. Maybe we shouldn't use those missiles. General: Why not? It's the only way to kill that monster. Servo [as Murase]: Because Kenny said so.

[A television newsman is reporting on Gamera-related natural disasters.] Newsman: There's going to be a special conference later this evening at the university, during which Dr. Hidaka will talk to high-ranking officers... Crow [as Newsman]: ... and Kenny...

Dr. Murase: Gamera seems able to resist attacks by all offensive weapons known to us. Therefore, I am forced to admit there may be even greater catastrophes ahead. Servo: More Gamera movies?

[Scene: the city of Oshima, where people are milling about.] Announcer: The city is off-limits to civilians. Not even the press is allowed to enter the area. Joel [as Announcer]: Kenny, however, is free to move about.

Pod People [ edit ]

[Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank explain the benefits of their invention: the public domain karaoke machine] Dr. Forrester: For example, say you're at a karaoke bar. Now, what happens when someone gets on stage and wants to sing... oh, "I Want to Know What Love Is" by Foreigner? TV's Frank: People vomit?

Dr. Forrester: Your movie today is Pod People. It has nothing to do with pods, it has nothing to do with people, it has everything to do with hurting!

[The film opens with a view through a bedroom window, with a crash of lightning and the sound of thunder.] Crow: It was a dark and stormy night. I'd taken a creative writing class.

[One of the pod people comes upon two hunters in the woods.] Hunter #1: What the hell is that? Hunter #2: I don't know...it looks like a cross between a pig and a bear! Crow: A pear?

[a hunter comes upon the pods in a cave, and begins to violently smash them with a large stick] Crow: Oh, what is he, an L.A. Cop?

[The scene cuts from the cruising camper to the cave, emitting a red glow.] Joel: Oh, terrific — we were saved by the gates of Hell.

Crow: And what's he going to do, borrow a cup of sugar from Satan?

Tommy: You know what "play" means, Trumpy? Crow [as Trumpy]: Yes, it's where I break you in half.

[Tommy shows Trumpy how to work a jigsaw puzzle.] Tommy: You see? The pieces go together. Joel: Oh, if only this film were so lucky.

[With Trumpy's help, Tommy sees African-veldt stock footage through his telescope.] Joel: They got Wild Kingdom on the telescope. . . . Tommy: You can do magic things! [Trumpy turns to reveal his eyes blazing with white light.] Crow [as Trumpy]: It's called "evil", kid. Servo: Hey, he's got his high-beams on. Hmm? Joel: He's got Bette Davis eyes. Crow: Orphan Annie eyes.

[Later:] Servo: First up on Hearts of Space, John Tesh with Whispering Firestorm. Then it's Yanni with SnoreMaster of Trafalgamar. Then comes bay area musician DelMondo with his Sominex Suite in B-flat. Then a synthesized interplanetary salute to Perry Como. At the end of the hour, we'll have information about the types of sedatives used by tonight's artists, on Music... from... The Hearts... of Space.

Gamera vs. Barugon [ edit ]

[A scorpion slowly crawls on Kawajiri as he maniacally celebrates the opal's discovery.] Servo: Death, where is thy sting? We're waiting.

[Paul Nelson (Peter Graves) observes the carnage of Tom Anderson's mutually fatal battle with the alien.] Paul Nelson: He learned almost too late that man is a feeling creature… and, because of it, the greatest in the universe. He learned too late for himself that men have to find their own way, to make their own mistakes. There can't be any gift of perfection from outside ourselves. And when men seek such perfection… they find only death… fire… loss… disillusionment… the end of everything that's gone forward. Men have always sought an end to the toil and misery, but it can't be given, it has to be achieved. There is hope, but it has to come from inside — from man himself.

Tom Servo: (as Tom, Crow, and Joel are doing a sketch of trucker characters riding magic carpets and communicating via radio) Hurry up, men, I'm running out of hard candy. Condition red, send in the clowns... oh, what's the use?! (breaks into hysterical sobbing as Crow and Joel enter) Crow: Ah, man, Joel, he's totally off-script! There's nothing that says anything about sobbing like a broken man! Joel: Yeah, you're right; let's see here... Tom says "Time formation, men. These kids are all over me; argh". It just says "Argh", there's nothing about sobbing pitifully. Servo: (while still crying) I can't do it guys, I just can't do it! I can't go through another sketch loosely based off some vague reference in the movie! There are only a few kinds of fezes in this movie, then suddenly people are riding flying carpets on national street days! Oh, why?!? Get me out of here!! Crow: I don't understand; how is this sketch any different than anything else we do during the movie? Joel: Well, I figure, Crow, it's not the sketch, it's this movie. I mean, look at him; he's just a broken man. Servo: You're telling me! There's absolutely no psychological funnels in this movie! It's like trying to climb El Capitan! There's something wrong with me... there's something wrong with me!! Why? Why?!? (sobs uncontrollably) Crow: Better you than me! Joel: Oh, Crow, c'mon... (addresses Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank in disgust) Look at what you've done to him! Do you see what you've done to this guy?! Come on! Dr. Forrester: (watching the scene unfold in satisfaction alongside Frank) You see Frank, it feels good to be with the winners, doesn't it?

Joel: (after trying, and failing, to cheer the bots up with a sketch about the backstory of Fu Manchu; crying) Oh, what's the use?! Why am I up here? What are you doing to us?! Dr. Forrester: (mockingly) Auntie Em, Auntie Em!

(Fu Manchu sits down; the crew all make raspberry noises)

Servo: Oh... King's on his throne.

Dr. Forrester: (gloating over their perceived victory in leaving Joel and the bots broken by the movie) Well, we should be expecting your surrender any moment now. Joel: You haven't won, Dr. Forrester; you've lost. And I feel sorry for you. You're nothing but a sad little man in a hole in the ground who can only feel power by hurting others. Well, we won because, we survived, and we survived because, well, we're Robinsons, roughly. That's what Robinsons do is survive, basically, and well, if you think it's so easy, well, YOU should try and watch a movie sometime! Dr. Forrester: You're sounding like a Hallmark card.

TV's Frank: (after Forrester and Frank attempt to riff on the movie themselves, only to quit after one scene) You know, we could've made funny comments, but the movie wasn't that good. Dr. Forrester: (angrily) Frank! Joel, Crow, and Servo: Gotcha!
