MST3K - Speech

[@MythicSuns]

PSA: "THINK TALL, TALK TALL, STAND TALL, WALK TALL" This PSA was bought to you by everyone who has never been in a wheelchair

[@jaynenunya6070]

yeah these 50s shorts are just full of ableism

[@artistwithouttalent]

"Now remember that appearance is important."You must appear, and you must have matter.

[@TanzDerSchatten]

I was at the dentist this morning getting a cleaning and got to thinking about this short for some reason. That's a tough place to get the giggles.

[@gargoyles9999]

we all know the most important part of a speech is to use plenty of lip and tongue action

[@pronkb000]

John Heard?

[@rickblaine5429]

SPEECH! SPEECH!

[@Redmond17]

The knee test got me through speech class.

[@JellicleKitten]

Servo's "eagle" cries at the end kill me every single time. I can't believe I always forget this one.

[@mangakid19]

"The ear is the human organ a public speaker is most likely to try and impress." "Right after the nipple." XD

[@falariem]

"Don't do this DURING the speech."

[@razbizzle]

"Now you're a can-opener, metal and shiny and taciturn." xD lmaooo

[@daftoptimist]

"Remember, appearance has a 'pear' in it!" Mind, blown.

[@MrHmg55]

In one of the "Alice and Jerry" readers used in elementary schools in the '50s and '60s, a chapter about a spelling bee contained the advice, "Remember, there's 'a rat' in 'separate.'" That, at least, reminded you how to spell "separate" correctly. Using "a pear" as a guide would lead you to misspell "appearance" with only one "p."

[@codyt.346]

“And maybe you should smile more.”

[@menslady125eif2590]

Narrator: Why? Servo: Because we like you!

[@purpleshamrock17]

"Shake that money maker!" Servo's scream at the end! hahaha

[@MrVictorClark]

I love MST3K, and this short actually helped me out in my Public Speaking class.

[@RaphBlade7]

The sexual innuendo of Servo's comment at 0:25 goes along great with the "Use plenty of Lip & Tongue Action" comment from "MST3K - Using Your Voice" (short).

[@logan_cadfgs]

"Yes, that's Eisenhower's America!"

[@luisreyes1963]

Especially at 3:15 😑

[@harveygriffiths9383]

I am really suprised at the audio quality on this one.

[@Magic_beans_]

I just can't take Professor Buehler seriously without his wire rack.

[@purpleshamrock17]

"I like this one cuz it's whiter" (I laughed for like a minute after that!) "plus the polish gets you high" "make sure your part is GAUGHED into your skull!" "next we have the he-man, athletic type...Grandpa?" "You'll look poised and dignified...uh, no you wont"

[@shuttittuppitt9355]

Also, from (approximately) 7:05 to 8:05 just gets WEIRD! Did the makers of this PSA REALLY think that ANYBODY wanted to see THAT?! & for at least a whole minute too! It was good for one of the better jokes though. "Yeah. That's it, baby. Shake that MONEY MAKER!"

[@erin1786]

"Now you're ready to rub out Sonny Corleone." "Make sure your part is gouged into your skull."

[@davincent98]

Me as soon as the video ended: 🎵It's time for Rifftrax (Riff-trax)🎶

[@monkeymouse]

Ear, eyes, a doll, a tree, a flower... were they STONED when they made this movie?

[@williamhiers1280]

The doll, tree and flower were about how we tend to judge based on whether something is pleasant to look at.

[@vinny4411]

Yes

[@steveairport]

"Next, we have the he-man athletic type..." Grandpa?!

[@song8777]

I just act like I have good appearance, when I shop at the dollar store, and people treat me like I do.

[@bjiadmg]

"She keeps her feet clamped tightly together." "Enough said." "The lion senses weakness and close in, chewing at his hamstrings."

[@RealmsOfThePossible]

10 people did not make the knee test.

[@AFVfan1]

"I will not make the knee test!" LOL! "....until you're incrediblely turned on!"

[@HighPriestXeno]

Think tall, talk tall, stand tall and walk tall. ...shave tall, jump tall, and crouch tall.

[@SammyThomas]

"My posture looks good KAAAWWWW KAWWWWW!"

[@Buzzygirl63]

"Women be different than men! Word." LMAO!

[@Sejscube]

THAT'S what I've been doing wrong all this time! I havn't been crouching tall! No wonder my speeches didn't go over well.

[@drphiI]

My postures' good! *scree* *scraw*

[@Deathundothee]

I was looking for this when you first mentioned it on lj. Thank for uploading!

[@jrsiv4462]

"I like this one cause it's whiter" HAHAHAHAHAHA!! LOL! That was hilarious.

[@elusiverobertdenby]

The old man at 5:04 is E.C. Buehler, who uttered the memorable line "use plenty of lip and tongue action" in a previous speech short.

[@communistjesus]

I really miss the SATELLITE OF LOVE and IT'S Astronauts of MS3K,

[@TackyRackyComixNEO]

"...Plus, the polish gets you high!"

[@DrGregoryHouseIT]

The eyes of Kenneth Mars!

[@kcool134]

Love the Posture Pals reference at the beginning These guys are hilarious XD "SPEECH! SPEECH!" "Women be different than men... word." "I'm nor a FLOWER!!!" XD

[@TheSolarWolf]

"Remember appearance has a pear in it"

[@OscarTangoWhisky]

"Now you're ready to rub out Sonny Corleone" 2:40 hilarious

[@laurallewien2165]

Leave the gun, take the cannoli!

[@maciejbacal5562]

5:17 Best part.

[@RMNCOfficial]

"Women be different than men... word."

[@dcbandnerd]

"My posture's good! *SQWAAAK!*"

[@RImAPhan]

"There, I said it and I'd say it again if I have to"

[@MrJrodarod]

"I will not make the KNEE test!" XD

[@MrObvious333]

"Ever seen a one eared elephant?" LOL, I haven't heard that one in years and it somehow slipped past the censors. Good work guys.

[@ThatManOverThere]

I like how Lindybeige has disproven everything said in this supposed informative movie just by talking.

[@jtlee891]

@resonanceth He was pretending he was the eagle at the end of the film. Notice the crowing.

[@AzaleaDane]

"Now you're ready to rub out Sonny Corleone!"

[@luisreyes1963]

Funny. 😬

[@laurallewien2165]

Meet me at the toll booth....leave the gun, take the cannoli

[@WAAAAAAAAAAAY]

"you must appear and you must have matter"

[@RaphBlade7]

[Tom Servo:] "After The Human Nipple!" - 0:24 - 0:25 (possibly best to start at 0:23)

[@parchiethegreat]

i love that part too!

[@WhoseLineFanXD]

"WOOORD." "My posture's good! REEEE! REEE!"

[@RaphBlade7]

7:14 - "Knee Test?" You've got to be kidding me. (Note: the "Knee Test" is apparenty an early version of the "Macarena" that never quite caught on as a popular dance.)

[@thefaboloussob]

7:15 Aaaay Macarena! (IIIIIGHT)

[@Dablkwid0w2008]

I can't believe they made that old man do that twirling his knees

[@mememe2323]

I will not take the knee test!

[@AutobotLover]

why cause we like you

[@OverlordJake]

MST3k was awesome, thanks for posting!

[@ChaosCat79]

3:45 That rather bedraggled man is the gym teacher from another MST3K'd short, "Why Study Industrial Arts". His "acting" hasn't gotten better between the two shorts either... :)

[@eartianwerewolf]

Seriously though this seems like a PSA for Duloc's citizens

[@LynelleHinkley]

Psssh..that exercise doesn't matter when you are a skier. I can keep my balance no matter how far apart my feet are.

[@satch234]

"I will not make the knee test!"

[@rickblaine5429]

Haha, nice "My Three Sons" reference from Tom Servo (8:10)

[@Evertide05]

Professor Buehler is an expert on lip and tongue action AND doing the knee dance? I think he had...issues to work out....

[@t1mmysrevenge]

Gotta love MST3K.

[@Brett2031]

lmfao!!! "you MUST appear and you must have matter!!" ROFL!!

[@Nixel85]

....Do I Please You?

[@TanzDerSchatten]

"There were a lot of forensics going on in Kansas in the 50's." A reference to In Cold Blood, perhaps?

[@RaphBlade7]

I love the riff Servo made after the narrator's comment about the human ear at 0:21 [Narrator:] "The Ear is the human organ, the public speaker is most likely to try to impress, as he makes a speech." [Tom Servo:] "After The Human Nipple!" - 0:26 (I have to admit, I got "cracked up" a few time as I was typing this, it's the kind Riff that makes you laugh the more you think about it.)

[@SJDraco]

shave tall, jump tall, and crouch tall

[@phodder]

Women be different than men. Word.

[@JustShoveJayOhBe]

i watched this in high school, and bleive it or not i actually use a lot of the posture advice from this whenever ive done speeches in school!!!

[@rickblaine5429]

SPEECH! SPEECH!

[@ErinIsPunk]

I'm not a flower...

[@imyerpepper]

00:46 I'd like to be a tree.

[@GlitchanBlack]

"In your mind, you must convince yourself that you will think tall... talk tall... stand tall... and walk tall." Shave tall, jump tall, and crouch tall.

[@JulieFreyHomeWebBiz]

Let's do the time warp again!

[@RImAPhan]

"until you're incredibly turned on" - LMFAO

[@Marhaba1973]

Appearance is the basis upon which a girl chooses a new doll. "I like this one 'cause it's whiter." LOL!

[@corwinlw]

the best short, in front of the best episode of MST3K.

[@prettysplash5bell]

Plus the polish gets you high!

[@elusiverobertdenby]

Thank you, E.C. Buehler, for two hilarious shorts.

[@CBear47]

@cyberdragonessmaster Soda may be stickier; but the chocolate milk smells. (typed from a different computer)

[@Athils]

Did people have trouble standing still without falling over back then?

[@Jcolinsol]

This is basically what they teach you in tai-chi.

[@RImAPhan]

"Be sure to get a new chin" :D

[@CBear47]

So, I was drinking chocolate milk while watching this. Anyone know how to dry out a keyboard?

[@zeke7775]

look tall, act tall, think tall. pfft lol

[@luisreyes1963]

What if you're Robert Reich?

[@Awesome4Prez]

"Ummm..Is your speech over, Mr. Johnston ?"

[@OrmondTheMagnificent]

5:57!!!! Funny as HELL!

[@vonzigle]

6:00 You know, this is the same guy from another Young America production about public speaking. ("Speech: Using Your Voice"). He convinced us the key to public speaking is to have a good "Wire Rack" (per the 'bots, anyway.)...

[@thefaboloussob]

0:27 Ahh. The album cover of Hall & Oates' "Private Eyes." My Dad has it; true story.

[@kaitoshion7806]

0:22 That ear has no canal. What the?

[@thefaboloussob]

3:38 "His speech about maintaining segregation is so powerful!"

[@luisreyes1963]

Did ancient Toastmasters make this film? 🎥

[@RaoulDuke77]

"Now you're ready to rub out Sonny Corleone."

[@kdraper2007]

reminds me of the filmstrips we had to watch in school.

[@SAClassHunterZero]

"Be sure to get a new chin". And that guys' look.. it's like a cross between "dictator" and "constipated".

[@eartianwerewolf]

Keep your feet off the grass, shine your shoes, wipe your.....face! Duloc is, Duloc is, Duloc is a perffeedttt placceeee!!!

[@jurahsik]

Women be different than men.
