Things I liked in the movie:
The captain’s beard.
The dangerous railings.
Floor waxers.
Recycled dead women.
Impressions
You probably won’t believe me, but once upon a time
in Hollywood, people made crappy movies just to make money. This is a great example. With all the success of Battlestar
Galactica, Star Wars, and Star Trek, there was apparently
money just waiting to be made on movies with big space ships and people
shooting lasers at each other. That’s
just the feeling you get from Space Mutiny – that someone thinks you’re
stupid enough to watch it and not realize it’s crap just because it’s a space
movie. This is a very fun episode. There’s lots of stuff to make fun of. The captain looks like Santa Claus. The deputy looks like Sting. The captain’s “daughter” looks like Lamb
Chop’s Shari Lewis. There’s a very
long floor waxer chase scene. There are
lots of women with huge hair. And the
riffing! Oh, the riffing!
I didn’t like the host segments at all in this one. Except when Bobo says, “I like potatoes.” The entire trapped in Rome theme is very tiresome over this season’s episodes.
Synopsis
A tough guy chickens out during a space fighter dogfight. He ends up on the Battlestar Galactica where Shari Lewis hates him for being a coward. Shari quickly drops her principles because he’s too charming to resist. The head of security is inciting a rebellion and eventually declares his plans to take over. Shari and Studly drive around on floor waxers and shoot the bad guys until enough of them fall over balcony rails that the rebellion is quashed or whatever you do to rebellions. Big McLargehuge burns the crippled guy to death to finish off any future rebellion plans.
Host Segments
Opening: Crow and Tom think Mike's encyclopedias are outdated. Mike gets them new ones and then they complain that they don’t have anything to complain about.
Intro: Mike has new encyclopedias. Pearl, Bobo and Observer are in prison in ancient Rome.
Host segment 1: Mike's tea time is interrupted by the bots trashing some escape pods
Host segment 2: Crow pretends to be one of the mystical Bellerians. Bobo's escape plan fails.
Host segment 3: Servo installs railings like in the movie.
End: Tom and crow wear muscle suits so they can look like the stud in the movie. Meanwhile Pearl, Bobo, and Brain Guy escape, and a fire begins (in Rome)!
Stinger: Our hero bravely screams like a girl and bails out
Funny Riffs
Mike as the Santa-like commander: I don't know if this helps, but 'Ho ho ho.'
The hero is obnoxiously buff and the movie flaunts it.
Servo: Punch Sideiron!
Mike: Gristly McThornbody!
Crow: Slake Fistcrunch!
Mike: Buff Hardback!
Servo: Bob Johnson! Oh, wait... Lump Beefbroth!
Crow: Touch Rustrod!
Mike: Reef Blastbody! Big McLargehuge! Smoke Manmuscle! Roll Fizzlebeef!
Servo: Boy, you know, a retarded jellyfish could make a better movie than this.
Crow: A severely impaired box turtle with a very busy schedule. Just give him a camera for a day, he'd come up with something better than this.
Mike: Ow! Why do you hate my groin?
Lea: I know that woman over there. She works on the bridge.
Mike: She's got an awesome package; I never noticed that before.
Crow: She's got an armadillo down her trousers.
Calgon: Is this the man?
Mike: Why, no, sir, you da man.
Mike: And our brave hero roasts the disabled man!
Mike: You know, a lot of people have compared this scene with the climactic chariot scene in Ben Hur. Yeah, you know they usually say, "Ben Hur was really good. This movie totally sucks."
The movie recycles an actress after she’s killed.
Crow to Captain: Nice of you to give that dead woman a second chance, sir.
Crow, commenting on go-kart chase scene: Put your helmet on, we'll be reaching speeds of 3!
Guy on screen: It's gonna blow!
Servo: If the first 10 minutes are any indication, the whole movie's gonna blow!
Calgon shoots a guy on the stairs.
Crow as Calgon: Hey, don't use those stairs!
Mike: Man, Sherry Lewis has got it going on!
Mike: Man, I'd rather get a table dance from Trent Lott!
Lea is tied up for torture and a stupid-looking middle-aged bald guy is guarding her. She acts suggestive and tries to seduce him.
Mike: You know, the last 8 times this happened the woman just wanted to get away.
Lea is dancing to goofy futuristic music and spends a lot of time showing her butt:
Tom: She’s presenting like a mandrill!
Lea, wearing a space-age leotard, runs toward the burning shuttlecraft.
Crow as Lea: My Buns of Steel videos are in there!
Cmdr. Jansen: It's very perilous for everyone on board… we do not make wild accusations… so we keep this Top Classified Secret.
Servo as Cmdr. Jansen: Top Super-Duper Maxi-Extreme Ultra Secret.
