MST3K - Krankor Visits

[@KeiFox]

Gotta love how Neptune Men actually broke the trio, and then Krankor arrives to save them with his bellicose ways, but still an affectionate guy at heart. We love ya, Krankor! 🥰

[@clamscasino6488]

It's good to be able to check in with a voice of sanity like Krankor every now and then.

[@Yggi11]

That was, no joke, actually really sweet.

[@TheStapleGunKid]

This was one of my favorite skits of all time. I love how the main theme of this episode is how shocked Mike and the Bots are that they found a movie worse than prince of space.

[@Asterra2]

I don't remember what channel it was, but there was a streaming service that offered old and rare movies like Neptune Men up for grabs in honest to goodness HD. I'll always feel really dumb for not taking the opportunity to store some of those for safekeeping. Neptune Men stood out because after all it is so abysmal and also features that Hitler building at one point. That streaming service died out very shortly after I discovered it.

[@mauricedavis2160]

HILARIOUS, CAUSTIC VAPORS AND ALL!!!🙏👌👻❣️

[@hawaiidispenser]

One of my favorite host segments. I think of it often and fondly.

[@Tyrannicus]

I LIKE IT VERY MUCH!

[@dirkstevens4457]

Krankor: I TOO, OFTEN THINK OF THIS SEGMENT OFTEN AND FONDLY, HAHHH, HEAHHHHH, HAAHHAAH.

[@mauricedavis2160]

You and I both, classic!!!🙏👌👻❣️

[@trfesok]

A touching hug from Krankor at the end. LOL. Good thing they didn't ask Bill Corbett to TOTALLY simulate Krankor's outfit, if you know what I mean...

[@vincemacek681]

Or, we should be thankful that we only see him from the waist up.

[@jreese7436]

??? ...Oh right, the underground tank.

[@Yabuturtle]

One of the few films that nearly broke their will to live.

[@cobaltspectre]

I recorded a videotape that had Prince of Space and Invasion of the Neptune Men together as a double feature-- it was the last thing my mom watched with us in her hospital room before she died of pancreatic cancer. But, someone stole the tape (I suspect that it might have been my estranged brother who took it as a souvenir; but, who knows?). I own the Prince of Space DVD, now; but, I've been waiting and waiting for Invasion of the Neptune Men to come out on DVD.

[@albee1000]

Mike workin' the bromance with Krankor. Oh, yes.

[@nadair2112]

Krankor, God it is good to see you.

[@emilyfarfadet9131]

Krankor and Ortega are the absolute best of late stage Mst3k sketch regulars.

[@pressureworks]

The best visitor. Krankor is still out there, probably giving Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarins, Ice Warriors, etc a hard time !!! Ha ha ha!

[@Nickel_The_Wise]

Man, you can really feel it by the end of this segment, once Krankor's left: Mike, Crow, Servo, Gypsy, Magic Voice, they're all each other have up there, with the occasional calls from the Mads and all. It's gotta real feel hard losing hope in a situation like that, trapped up above Earth and starting to collapse under it all, only for a sucker punch like Neptune Men to nearly burn the sails.

[@loganbednar6491]

I love Krankor! Anyone else notice that he looks a lot like Waluigi?

[@Lobsterwithinternet]

Where do you think Waluigi came from?

[@the-four-seven]

I always loved the host segments where it got really wholesome out of nowhere like this, like when Mike and Pearl sat in her space-van and had hot chocolate, and Crow appeared and sat on Mike's lap like a kid. Smiles all around.

[@AdudenamedVince]

This segment never fails to make me feel good inside. =)

[@PWPH1984]

I simply cannot stop laughing at the ridiculousness of both Bill's costume and performance as Krankor. I'm having trouble breathing!

[@GoblinXXX]

Seriously, we all THOUGHT Prince of Space was bad until Invasion of the Neptune Men, Goofy as they were, at least the Prince and Krankor had some personality- Space Chief and the water heaters from Neptune had nothing.

[@OptimisticCynic715]

Except Sonny Chiba! HAAAH...HAAAH...HAAAH...HAAAH!

[@musictraXffa]

You've already conquered my heart.

[@AndrewNeilFalconer]

This is one of the most memorable moments of the show.

[@mdflorida1233]

Prince of Space was such a good episode.

[@mauricedavis2160]

This segment is right up there with Frank leaving for the Land of Second Bananas!!!🙏👌👻❣️

[@GoblinXXX]

You can never BE Krankor, but you can emulate him, and let him guide your life. Me, I pattern MY existance on Rommel, from SIDEHACKERS.

[@OptimisticCynic715]

Had this in my head for days.

[@SgtHydra]

Krankor is my moral and spiritual leader.

[@HazyChase20]

... I miss Krankor already.

[@devbob]

One of my favorite interludes ever.

[@AnimationReCreation]

You know things were bad on the SOL when Phantom of Krankor becomes everyone's favorite uncle. He'd be a riot to have over at the Holidays. Or at least Thanksgiving. Still the man!

[@bloodgrss]

My favorite host segment ever! So funny to this day-for those who sat thru The Prince of Space and this turkey...

[@silvereagle2061]

Krankor should have come over more often.

[@AmyLSacks]

I wanted him to be Pearl's henchman... instead of Brain Guy & Bobo.

[@silvereagle2061]

@@AmyLSacks That would have been pretty cool.

[@AmyLSacks]

@@silvereagle2061 Y'know with that laugh, Pearl woulda' killed him at *least* as often as Clayton killed TV's Frank. :D

[@silvereagle2061]

@@AmyLSacks LOL You're probably right.

[@joebove4]

Double Bill Corbett goodness. Gotta love it.

[@JDAN.]

Well he's a little older and a little slower, but he's still our Krankor at heart.

[@fatdogtavern]

Who wins in a battle to the death between Krankor and Torgo? Or do they just end up waltzing around and holding each other?

[@JoeKerr420]

Ortega and his Stench

[@bingerz237]

I LOVE THIS MAN!!!

[@Dacfu]

This is one of the first MST3Ks Ive seen

[@jorgelopez-pr6dr]

Krankor , hooray!

[@GoblinXXX]

Oh, I realized when I first started watching anime, years ago, that the Japanese are simply not happy unless hundreds, if not THOUSANDS, of people die in their stories. The more innocent casualties, the better, for them. (Look at the body count in any slasher movie, and compare that to what it would be in any Gamera or Godzilla movie!)

[@SgtHydra]

He conquered our hearts.

[@TheElusiveRobertDenby]

So Krankor, how are ya man?

[@kamenraider1175]

I LIKE IT VERY MUCH

[@mas8705]

Makes me realize if they were visited by Torgo, Mike and the bots would be fighting among themselves to see who would be first out the airlock.

[@callumprice1710]

Nah they also like Torgo.

[@jeffeastwood15]

Bill Corbett as Leonardo di Vinci in the 'Quest of the Delta Knights' episode is even funnier

[@HumblyArtsy]

😅 love this, I love how they make such real moments

[@Atheneastro]

@OzzyFan87 I know. Oh, I just can't bear it when Servo cries. It's so... cute....

[@ebrules]

IT IS YOU WHO NEEDS SAVING!

[@parchiethegreat]

this is so funny. i love the way krankor laughs...hahahahahaha!!!

[@joelzsheridancomedy3983]

This is just dern funny!

[@AengusFallon]

"He's conquered my heart."

[@GoblinXXX]

You are not kidding, mi compadre. The "hero" doesn't even show up for the whole last HALF of NEPTUNE MEN, it's just shots of that tedious saucer attack.

[@user-gk9lg5sp4y]

Three words; Roji Panty Complex

[@sserpent21]

RD and Blade would love this

[@encliticcopula]

Plus, Invasion of the Neptune Men's use of stock footage of actual buildings (with people inside, probably) exploding makes the film depressing and disturbing as well as dull.

[@robertgill7115]

Does anyone remember the MST3K movie, where Krankor and Mike pulled a prank on Tom and Crow, followed by Krankor saying: "They ... Run .. Like ... Fools ... HA! .. HA! .. HA!"

[@sagaofbluewing]

This is one of my favorite episodes ever. Too bad it's not on DVD.

[@Atheneastro]

I can't agree with you more.

[@Auteckre]

"Cambot, c'mon."

[@Atheneastro]

3:39 AWWWW, look at Mike and Servo!

[@philipmonihan8222]

This was such a fun surprise the first time I saw it. Too bad he hadn't been there for the Sandy Frank years. That said, in the face of Agent from HARM, Yucca Flats, and the dark Master we call Manos, was Neptune Men really that bad?

[@cahummel2]

+Philip Monihan Yes, yes it was. Really, really bad.

[@philipmonihan8222]

cahummel2 Well if that's how you feel, where do you stand on Prince of Space. My family loves that one.

[@cahummel2]

To be clear, the movie is terrible (Neptune Men) by itself. The comments make it great. Prince of Space a film is silly and fun by itself. Mike and the bots make it a classic. I love MST3K.

[@philipmonihan8222]

cahummel2 My assessment exactly. Although I firmly believe Neptune Men by itself is still better than, say, Manos or the Coleman Francis trilogy. Or Master Ninja. Bride of the Monster? I'm not sure.

[@pressureworks]

Still waiting for The Phantom of Krankor to take over. Anyone or Thing is much better than the orange skinned, funny haired yelling maniac we had.

[@OptimisticCynic715]

Have you been in a coma the past 2 years?

Haaah, Haaah, Haaah, Haaah, Haaah, Haaah, Haaah, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@pshepherd58]

my son hated how crow sounded like jr on kane attacking his own brother then setting him in the casket on fire at the end of the 1998 royal rumble with wwe home video footage in season 8 saying dammit him and servo both that's why he prefers the 1st of the final three episodes of sponk where miles Julia vanessa of the red took on louie lori and tim of the blue cause of the global wrestling federation on espn classic that still lives on at&t uverse

[@EricNinden]

@fyiab A little something people in the biz' like to call "TV magic".

[@DailyMotionBetter]

1:43

[@d983394]

does anyone know what episode they did the "andy rooney off" host segment

[@tremorsfan]

Did they pre record Bill's lines as crow?

[@MotownFan1962]

I think so.

[@TheDarkKRoo]

Did anyone notice crows mouth is a bowling pin cut in half?

[@jacoboblandonpineda]

The bots were made from a variety of recycled objects.

[@jacoboblandonpineda]

The bots were made from a variety of recycled objects.

[@TheDarkKRoo]

I know. I was just wondering if anyone noticed. I didn't until I read his wiki article. Now I can't unsee it.

[@TheGenericNerd]

IKR, did you ever notice that Tom kinda looks like an old gumball machine?

[@TheDarkKRoo]

Dexter Riley he also has a body made from a money lover barrel bank. He looks like a beer keg with a gumball machine sitting on top.

[@mr1000Cent]

I hear Krankor is working for Wrestlecrap Radio right now, is this story true?

[@TokyoKnights3]

Krankor didn't laugh that slow...

[@Tekev]

it seems incredibly creepy though XD
