MST3K - Santa Claus Conquers the Martians

*It’s my way or the highway, this Christmas at my ba-ha-haar.
I’ll have to smash your kneecaps if you bastards touch my car!
I got the word that Santa has been stealing from the till.
I think that that right jolly old elf better make out his will, ohh,

Oh, let’s have a Patrick Swayze Christmas, one and all.
And this can be the haziest…
This can be the laziest…
This can be the Swayziest
Christmas of them aaallllllllll!*

He’s mister White Christmas.
He’s mister snow.
He’s mister icicle,
He’s mister ten below.
“They call me Snow Miser.
Whatever I touch
turns to snow in my clutch!
I’m too much.”

and

He’s mister Green Christmas.
He’s mister sun.
He’s mister heat blister,
He’s mister hundred-and-one.
“They call me Heat Miser.
Whatever I touch
starts to melt in my clutch!
I’m too much.”

Classic.

Great - now I can’t get the opening of those darn tunes out of my head. (Bah dump BAAH DUM! Duuuum Dum! Bah dump BAH DUM!)

Must…resist…singing them…out…loud.

83

Why you gonna order and send it to me? :smiley: I knew it was there but I figured that I would rent it if anyone has a copy around. I think my parents have a copy too.

Garfield226, A Christmas Story was filmed in Cleveland. I got to watch part of the filming as a kid (the scene with the departmenent-store Santa), and all of the public busses were done up as electric street-cars for a while. It’s fun picking out all of the familiar landmarks (especially the Terminal Tower: It’s the pointy, Gothic-looking skyscraper that’s always on the skyline).

85

Narrator voice: Some men are Baptists…others Catholics…My
father was an Oldsmobile man.

Narrator: I could feel the Christmas noose beginning to tighten.
Maybe what happened next was inevitable.
Ralphie’s Mom: Ralphie, what would you like for Christmas?
Narrator: Horrified, I hurt myself blurt it out!
Ralphie: I want an official Red Ryder Carbon Action 200 shot range
model air rifle!
Narrator: Oooooooo…
Ralphie’s Mom: No…You’ll shoot your eye out.
Narrator: Oh no, it was the classic mother BB gun block! Heh,
heh. “You’ll shoot your eye out!” That deadly phrase uttered many
times before by hundreds of mothers was not surmountable by any means known to kiddom.
:D:D

86

Being a fan of the movie, I thought for sure you’d recognize the reference.

87

I can’t believe no one has said this yet…The Muppets Christmas Special where all the muppets, and Sesame Street characters go to Fozzie’s Mom’s house for Christmas…a classic…

“Be careful of the icy patch”
"Huh?"CRASH

88

“The Spirit of Christmas,” with that lovable four-some from South Park. Puts everything into perspective

89

In case anyone’s interested…Santa Claus Is Comin’ to Town is on the ABC Family channel tonight.

Slight hijack:

There was a thread a couple years ago with an interesting discussion about the ‘Rudolph’ Christmas special, which involved a couple amusing topics:

Topic 1: Was it Hermie? Hermy? Herbie?
Topic 2: Wasn’t there some sort of tooth extraction that was a little unsettling in that movie?
Topic 3: At one point when toys were being flung out of the airborne sled with little parachutes, one of the little “live” toys was mercilessly thrown sans parachute presumably to meet an unspeakable end. (A number of Dopers had caught this, I believe)

Do these ring a bell w/anyone?

Here you go:“Rudolph” T.V. Special

My wife and I were in Wal-Mart yesterday singing “Here we come a waffling.”

Some lady overheard us and stopped us later and asked if we were the people singing from Claymation Christmas. We ended up spending a few minutes discussing how underrated that show is.

93

Had the funkiest darn rendition of Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer I’ve ever heard. And those camels ruled.

You’re right I should have. But I’m an idiot. :slight_smile:

98

Thanks, Peregrine. For some reason my computer doesn’t like the search function, and my one success I realized I had spelled “Rudolf” wrong. Duh.
