Add MST3K’s Godzilla and Gamera to the list…

Mystery Science Theater 3000 (you know, the show there a guy and his two robot friends watch movies and make fun of them) had twelve different episodes dedicated to either Godzilla or Gamera (Godzilla had two, Gamera had the rest).

Before the show made it to Comedy Central, they aired on KTMA, a public access channel in Minnesota. Here, they did five Gamera movies. Two years later, on Comedy Central, they did a couple of Godzilla flicks and finally, a year after did, redid four of the five Gamera movies.

The regular versions will post on Wednesdays (as is now normal) and the MST3K versions will post on the follow Saturdays. Nifty, eh? It sure is!

I’ll be watching all of these as I watch the original Japanese versions of the movies themselves.
