Didn't read the article. by rev_skarekroe	Jan 8th, 2004 11:40:21 AM
I'd rather talk about Britney Spears getting married to that guy. Or the Batman script review. Or my ass. sk

CD Japan has the DVD
It's on HBO.... by Termin8er69	Jan 8th, 2004 11:46:30 AM
right now. saw it last night and over the weekend. Get out the VCR!
I won't read it unless there are pictures. by beastie	Jan 8th, 2004 11:46:44 AM
The King Arthur article had the best pictures I've seen on this site to date. Therefore, I have decided since nothing can compare, I won't read it unless there are pictures that are historically inaccurate.
This thing plays on cable all the time. by Bloodstained	Jan 8th, 2004 12:01:43 PM
It's not like this is some rare film near impossible to find. Besides, Infra-Man is much better.
tasteless indeed by speed	Jan 8th, 2004 12:18:45 PM
that review is a barry crocker (shocker).
MST3K should have viewed this movie by Jeditemple	Jan 8th, 2004 12:25:50 PM
I remember seeing this movie back around '78 and loved it. Of course, back in those days, we watched Godzilla movies every Saturday, so we were used to bad Japanese cinema. This movie is a classic...watch with your friends and laugh your ass off.
This instead of SPIDERMAN 2 script review, or BATMAN news, or an by T.T. Boy	Jan 8th, 2004 12:25:52 PM
I can't decide which site sucks more. This or CHUD. Both suck in special and unique ways. Both suck harder with each passin week. Each is pompous, overblown, and run by fat losers. Christ. I can't wait until the Oscar noms are announced and ROTK doesn't get nominated in every single category, so Harry can whine more about GOLLUM'S SONG or Fat Astin deserving an Oscar. Instead we get a look at an old movie about slanty-eyed fucks in spaceships. Whoppee.
Harry says he loves this movie, and then posts a vulgar, tastele by guerillatokyo	Jan 8th, 2004 12:46:03 PM
Its on thing to love asian cinema for it cheesiness, its another to post absolutely tasteless reviews by pukefucks like this guy. This asshole is obviously trying to write his review like Neil Cumpston. unfortuneatly, he doesn't mask his unoriginality all that well. Shame on you Harry. Shame on you for posting a this disgusting neagative review by some shit heel who pretends to like the movie. Besides, there stuff going down on the Batman movie, and your throwing up vintage "reviews".

Lep 6!! by drunkenspec	Jan 8th, 2004 12:57:15 PM
You post this but not my insightful Leprechaun 6: Back 2 Da' Hood review??? The man that makes Leprechaun movies needs to be taken down.
MESSAGE IN SPACE is the only movie I've seen that made me scream by koomoReborn	Jan 8th, 2004 01:51:00 PM
And Invasion of the Neptune Men was lampooned wonderfully on a MST3K ep that's easy to find on KaZaa. Where's my record?
I agree Guerilla Tokyo by M.D. Douche	Jan 8th, 2004 02:51:52 PM
Its wrong to make fun of gooks. HAHAHA. Seriously Harry has some shitty ass taste in film to bother with trash like this.
SPACE FIREFLIES! SPACE FIREFLIES! by Manos	Jan 8th, 2004 03:10:55 PM
Must be where Wheadon got his idea for Firefly. Sorry.

Sorry, couldn't help myself...
lookes interesting. I'll have to check this out by fun guy	Jan 8th, 2004 04:40:29 PM
But my question is: Why does Legolas have to slide down things in the LOTR movies? The TTT shield surfing scene is only outdone by the ROTK mumakil trunk slide in gayness. Otherwise, it was a fairly excellent trilogy.
beastie, no photos, but you did get historical inaccuracy by eraser_x	Jan 8th, 2004 04:50:20 PM
kamikazes at Pearl Harbor are an inaccuracy. On two levels. First, kamikazes didn't exist at the time of Pearl Harbor. Second, kamikazes are Japanese, whereas anyone who has watched Animal House knows that it was the Germans who bombed Pearl Harbor.
Lets make a trip to quentins house and DEMAND to see this film by Jon E Cin	Jan 8th, 2004 06:01:39 PM
That would be fun.
FUCK THIS! by AznRockMan	Jan 8th, 2004 06:10:15 PM
Damn harry for posting shit reviews crafted by illiterates. Check out Filmrot.com for intelligent reviews of all sorts of films. Harry's been biting the fat penis for a while. But, what can you expect from an inbred redeck 2 ton piece of white trash anyways? Fuck you harry! Go fuck yourself you cock! I hope your genitals fall off after fuching McWeeny's "fun lovin'" ass. You fucking shill fuck.
This guy ripped off half of his review from the first one on IMD by JWBlack67	Jan 8th, 2004 06:16:38 PM
Check it out.
I SEE DEAD PEOPLE, all you maniacs reading this shit by harrysoldout	Jan 8th, 2004 07:37:20 PM

Knowles, You Have Lost It by filker-tom	Jan 8th, 2004 08:34:07 PM
Hokay, lemme get this straight. First you lead with the premise that this movie, MESSAGE FROM SPACE, is what "Disney ripped off for TREASURE PLANET", never mind that TrPl was an obvious, blatant, and CREDITED retelling of Stevenson's TREASURE ISLAND, and then you print a badly written review that not only slams MFS, but identifies it as a STAR WARS rip-off. Man, it's been obvious for awhile that you've run out of stuff to say. But this cinches it. And, by the way, how many films DO you love mostest and bestest of all? 'Cause most people have, y'now, one.
A plea from a fellow film geek/writer who needs some feedback! by dr_scott	Jan 9th, 2004 04:12:55 AM
Howdy, everyone. My name's Scott, and I'm yet another amateur film critic operating out of Dallas on the internet. I've finally corralled a section of a friend's webpage to post my online reviews (which are sent out to people on my mailing list; Heretofor, I was too lazy to set up a website, someone offered to give me the space), and I'm sending out word to all my fellow film geeks: Please stop by and read some of my stuff! We writers need ample feedback, and I figure my fellow bitter, cynical film geeks are the best people to ask for support! The friend who set up the pseudo-page for me is the director of FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS, which is a student-film/comedy set in an unnamed college, which you can find at friendswithbenefits.com. It's a pretty entertaining little flick, so feel free to check that out after reading some of my reviews! The address is http://fwb.proboards18.com, and my stuff is under "The Doctor's..." If you don't have time, don't worry about it. Just trying to spread the word. I have faith in you, fellow film geeks. Thanks! Dr.Scott

MFS vs. Battle Beyond The Stars by Syd Mead	Jan 9th, 2004 11:20:32 AM
First up leave Vic Morrow out of this. He was the shit in COMBAT!, therefore does not need to be dissed by some ass wipe who couldn't find his own opinion unless somebody handed it to him. Second, while Message From Space is a definent WTF was that experence, Battle Beyond The Stars is a much suckier, nacho cheesier and more laughable space opera rip off of Star Wars. Why? 1) It's from the Roger Corman school of bad cinema. 2) It has Robert Vaughn who is bad in every movie he's ever made. 3) It has John Boy from the Waltons as a starry eyed Luke Skywalker rip off. 4) It has some half Swedish alien - half Queen Amazonian - like warrior with HUGE fucking tits. 5) It even has space ships with breast implants!! 'Nuff said. Battle Beyond The Stars is a royal flush of bad taste while Message From Space is a two pair. MST3K where are you when we need you?
Uh, Harry, you do know that Treasure Planet was based on Treasur by St.Buggering	Jan 10th, 2004 12:20:52 AM
You did know that, right? Hello? But then, nothing lights up a film geek's black little heart like being able to say that a big-budget studio film "ripped off" a tiny, insignificant movie no one's heard of. That's crack to a film geek. They just love the word "rip-off".
What the hell? by Robert Blake	Jan 10th, 2004 12:45:07 AM
This does NOT sound like it has anything at all to do with Disney's EXCELLENT 'Treasure Planet'.
I saw it in the 70s along with Death of Honor and the Yagyu Cons by watashiwadare	Jan 11th, 2004 09:18:22 PM

Sowrds Of the Space Ark AKA Message From Space by sambronkowitz	Jan 12th, 2004 01:54:06 AM
back in 1995 me and some friends re audio'ed a message from space spinoff movie called Swords Of The Space Ark this movie used the same footage from message from space but with a new story with some of the same characters but with a drunken ape named Baron. It is awsome chessey fun. our version we replaced all the dialog and sound effects and music and made it a comedy. if you get a chance to watch messsage from space do it!
Memories... by chasfkane	Jan 12th, 2004 02:29:29 PM
Back in '78, I caught this movie with a friend at the Northcross Crackerbox Theater in Austin, drawn by the obvious Star Wars influences. In the first few minutes, we realized this was going to be hilariously bad, and started engaging in some pre-MST3K heckling in the theater. The glowing walnuts were particularly good fodder for wisecracks. We probably pissed off some people, but we had a good time. It still shows up every once in a while on Encore's WAM channel for kids. Last time I tried to watch it I fell asleep and dreamed about being in high school again.
