MST3K: Hobgoblins (FULL MOVIE)

[@hilarymol6607]

One of my favorite episodes ever! And, sadly, a good representation of what living in the 80s was like. Every weekend after this movie came out there were Choose Your Garden Weasel Championships everywhere.

[@rinoz47]

Club Scum's opening everywhere. Scummin in the Streets (Fish Picker) was tearing up the charts...

This is probably my favorite MST3K episode of all time. It's like this movie was made just to be riffed

[@matty6878]

remember before youtube removed those pop up windows on videos MST3K used to upload episodes that appeared on screen like Pop Up Video with trivia and notes for each joke? if they released that in some form i'd totally buy it

[@ps5blows317]

Yeah. Annotations.

[@Porkchop_Delight]

There is a MST3k Annotated website, that lists each reference in chronological order. Not as convenient as the pop ups, but it's still useful

thats an ok fact but a real fun fact: after watching this movie on SciFi late one night before the infomercials came on I ate a whole pot ov chilli and got yelled at for being a growing teenager. they tested me for drugs but nope... just puberty.

Probably my and my brother's favorite episode. We quote it a lot too. In particular, whenever a movie or show is being aggressively 80s-y, we'll sing "It's the 80s! Do a lot of coke and vote for Ronald Reagan!"

As a kid i used to watch snippets on this on tv but it never got my attention or understood it, but now an adult, I love 3000 so much

[@zenkomenhi]

Were it not for the MST3K crew I would not have made it through this movie. Even with their riffing sustaining my life, my ears were ringing fiercely by the end.

[@emmaiblass]

I realized about halfway through watching this episode the first time that I had seen Hobgoblins on its own. I wonder if mom had assured me we had Gremlins at home…

[@LifesNeverHumDrum]

Maybe if you spill water in a copy of Gremlins, it spawns a copy of Hobgoblins

[@trustno173]

Let's give a round of sarcastic applause to Rick Sloane, who was the one who recommended MST3K do this movie over his others (Blood Theater, The Visitants and Vice Academy) which were also considered for riffing.

"This from an assistant security guard." That line just straight killed me., it was perfectly timed.

[@Menuki]

MST3K elicits a very unique type of laughter the delayed audible giggle. It’s more than an exhale thru the nose but not a full audible, but it always hits a few seconds after the joke.

[@Blueskybuffalo]

Thank you Rick Sloane. And bless your heart.

[@LateralTwitlerLT]

"Hey creep, just *_climb_* back under your rock!" Who need retakes? She almost said the line right, so that's good enough.

[@mikeoyler2983]

I had forgotten all about this episode. It is such a gem. I love the bit about "Do Women Exist?" What a funny expression on Mike's face when Crows says to him "maybe one other woman exists." At the time, I am not sure if I knew that he and Bridget Jones were married, but the facial expression is so funny.

Anyone remember The Final Sacrifice? That's my favorite episode but can't be shown because the director of the actual movie sued them or something? Such a shame, I still have the recording but can't post it because it would probably get pulled right away! 👿

[@mjjoe76]

It is a shame. The director has not been a Greidanus about the whole thing.

[@gagadreams]

@mjjoe76 it's really such a hilarious episode, there are a ton of awesome episodes but that one stands out to me, I laughed so hard and still haven't found out if there's beer on the sun! 😭

[@trustno173]

I'm lucky to have gotten the DVD while it was in print. Apparently it's because the director of The Final Sacrifice wasn't happy with the movie being mocked, as it was something he made while as a college student and felt a little insulted by it. He apparently wants too much money for the episode to go back into circulation, but luckily KZbin and other sites have fans covered.

[@gagadreams]

@trustno173 is it on KZbin? I haven't seen it but someone sent me the file and I have it saved on my phone, computer and flash drive lol I'm sure I have a VHS which I recorded off the Sci fi channel somewhere and probably also a DVD I burned! 🤭

The cardboard cutout idea worked in the theater but not outside. They should have just made it appear that they were staying in the theater without any breaks as they snuck off on vacation.

This is gonna be a controversial opinon: I don't think Hobgoblins is as bad as Monster a Go Go. Hobgoblins is stupid and fun. Monster a Go Go was soul crushing. Actually, Hobgoblins was a masterpiece compared to the Creeping Terror.

So in the original he's imprisoned in a satellite and forced to watch bad movies as an experiment so they can monitor his mind and see what happens. Not exactly realistic but it made sense as a premise. But now she's chasing him across the universe and sending them cheesy movies. Just because she's a sadist I guess. I don't know. And she wants to rule the world but she spends all her time chasing these robots and a guy through space with a van full of bad movies. Why'd they change it? It was fine before. You can change the cast without changing the premise.
