Film watched: The Girl in Lovers Lane

The MST3K presentation of this movie contains examples of:

  • Contemplate Our Navels: Literally — Crow and Tom each drill themselves a bellybutton. Upon getting his, Crow starts contemplating it.
  • Continuity Nod: "To live like the E-lam, to be like the E-lam..."
    • Joel and the Bots compare Jesse to Torgo.
  • Canon Discontinuity: Crow and Servo, upset at the ending, come up with their own instead, which involves Carrie living, Jack Elam getting abducted by aliens, Danny and Bix taming dinosaurs in a post-apocalyptic world, and a kingdom of pygmies. Frank comes up with his own, which involves Bix as a being of pure energy.
  • Fix Fic: The final host segment consists of Joel and the Boys rewriting the ending to remove Carrie's death from the plot.
  • My Name Is Not Durwood: Joel and the Bots mishear Bix Dugan's name as "Big Stupid", and keep referring to him as such.
  • Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot: Crow and Servo's alternate ending is just full of this.
  • Spoof Aesop: In Crow and Servo's bizarre alternate ending to the movie

Servo: And the moral is "Never love a pygmy!"
Crow: Because...they're immortal!
Servo: Yeah!
Crow: And they can fly!
Servo: Mm-hm!
Crow: And you can't fly!

Joel: (singing) The Girl In Lovers' Lane...
Crow: With Jack Elam, not Jack La-Lanne. (Servo: Not La-La-a-ane...)
Joel: And lots of actors, there's no time to name...
Crow: A screenplay by Joe Heims that's pretty lame. (Servo: Pretty lame...)
Servo: The entire crew, feels a sense of shame. (Crow: Shame.) If only they'd had / half a brain / they could attain / a measure of fame / from a film like Shane! / But no. To their disdain, / The Girl In Lov-ers Lane!
Joel: (Makes Rawhide whip crack noise.)

"Are you waitin' for a bus?"
