"How long do you think it'll take you to get the unit out of the rocket?" "Hey! That's kind of personal."
Hey, Jerry, there's a problem with the stock footage simulator.
"Not since Andy Warhol's Empire State has a camera stayed in one place for so long!"
"It all started at a little 500-watt radio station in Fresno, California..."
"Hey, I've gone color blind." Well, if this movie were in color that would mean something.
Now this is only for conversation, but if you were going to eat a human body where would you start?
"Hey, does this movie have a continental breakfast?" No... they 'lost' the continental breakfast.
"We'll worry about that when the time comes." God knows we have tons of that lying around!!!
Maybe there was hand soap in the hydraulic fluid... (SST Death Flight)
Woah! It's like an operation game! Touch her there and she buzzes!
As I was telling that other guy, I never wanted to die in a plane but now I'm very excited about it!
This is where they shot Mad Monster, and a little ways down here you'll see where they did Jungle Goddess, and there's Rocketship-XM...
It's like a game of Operation. Touch her there and she buzzes. Remove tongue from tonsils.
Would someone please tell the director about compressing time through editing??
Turns out I'm a herbivore- these guys got nothing to worry about. I'm really just a red herring. Please enjoy the film.
Hey, we landed on a witch! Maybe the film will be in color from this point.





That opening skit has to be one of Frank's finest.
13:31 How can you not love Crow and his promiscuous antics?
0:38:33- Check out how Hugh Beaumont starts laughing once Monkey Boy reaches the top! I think you can even hear him laugh!
Sweet, a reference to the world's truly worst movie, Andy Warhol's Empire State Building--the Movie. (Some call it art, but then again some people would call it art if Warhol had farted in a jar and declared it to be his masterpiece.)
These sets look oddly familiar...
Mountain climbing Joel
Hey! That's the army base from Rocketship XM!
Seeing Sid Melton getting killed by a triceratops makes it all worth it.
This episode is great underrated goodness, I guess I was weaned on Manos, so I love the movies that reach such terribleness to make them nearly lose it.

It took me the whole movie to figure out that scientist Mike (Black hat guy) was the man in the wheelchair from "When Worlds Collide"!

Ceasar Romero one of the orginal Jokers. who would have thought. Ha Ha Ha Ha
over 5 minutes of walking and climing around the mountain.
This was also called "Cesar Romero's Night of the Living Dead".

Oh, for the Trekkies out there: The Russian scientist in this film played Dr. Boyce, McCoy's predecessor as CMO of the Enterprise, in the rejected Original Series pilot: The Cage, under Captain Pike.

Nice to have an answer to the question : "What if he simply REFUSES to go watch the movie ?"
Some of the best riffing from the early years. What cracks me up is that they riffed on Sid Melton for being on The Danny Thomas Show but never made a riff about his most famous role as Alf Monroe on "Green Acres."

Wretchedness of the movie aside, I'm just thrown off by Joel's beard.
If Jungle Goddess met Jurassic Park...
So I guess the original order was Rocket Attack USA, then Wild Rebels, then Lost Continent. I wonder how Ring of Terror slipped in there.

How bad is this movie, when the whole premise of the show is that these guys can't be driven crazy, even by the worst movies? I gotta believe the guys were actually out of character, and really couldn't tolerate this movie.

ouch....this really HURTS!
This is one of my favorites because of the way that Joel and the Bots totally lose it because of the rock climbing. I know a lot of folks that have a tough time with this episode, but I think the pay off is worth it. Not only do we get Cesar Romero, but we also get "monkey boy" Sid Melton. Plus, Crow's line, "Will someone PLEASE tell the director about compressing time through editing?!", is a complete classic.

Somehow I thought a movie about The Joker fighting dinosaurs would be more entertaining.
This movie would be completely unwatchable without the riffing. "Rock Climbing..." has been a household joke since I was a kid and first saw this episode. I'd forgotten how plodding and pointless it really is.

Huh, I only just now realised that the Mads' invention became reality in the most ridiculous product launch of 2007: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=XUuwEq98ByM . Ahead of their time!

I think Rock Climbing may in fact be worse than Deep Hurting. What do you think, sirs?
