Mods, please move this to the Movie Forum.
My Cinematic Titanic DVD's came in yesterday and watched the Oozing Skull last night. First off, it includes the original cast is from MST3K, so there's no Mike, Kevin Murphy (newer servo) or Bill Corbett (new crow).
Once the movie started, I was a bit concerned that there were 5 commentary silhouettes instead of the 3 I was used to...could this be too many people spouting off derogatory remarks? At first it did seem like that during the opening but things got better. During the movie, they will interact with their hands and props and also will pause the movie to discuss something - which is good, it breaks up the movie.
The commentary is what you remember from yesteryear. Witty, fun and entertaining. If you like you like MST3K you'll enjoy this offering from Cinematic Titanic..
Things I do miss are the the robots, the skits (although they were cheesy, I still enjoyed them - they broke up the movie), and the overall premise that this poor guy was stuck in space forced to watch these movies, held captive by a mad scientists...
