The cat MUST meow every time it's on the screen. Otherwise the audience might forget that it's looking at a cat. Likewise, the mouse must always squeak.
Well South African accents sort of sound like a bastard mix of Aussie and Brit. And I think the parents weren't from SA and they were trying their best to be South African and butchered it pretty hard. Edit: Scratch that, reverse it. I couldn't remember which place this movie claimed to be from lol
"Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonders?" Classic MST3K episode, and one of my favorites. I always felt that movie they riffed on was secretly a pilot for a never produced anthology TV series reminiscent of the "Twilight Zone," but with Merlin. Alot of old shows like that started with a "movie" pilot. Including a few Disney Afternoon shows.
When I was six Freejack, Lawnmower Man, and A Clockwork Orange were my favorite movies! I still think Freejack was somewhat underrated. Mick Jagger was the bad guy!
1:03:54 If you've ever played Might and Magic 5: The Mandate of Heaven you can recognize that music sting! It's the same sound that plays whenever you pause the game for combat.
Anyone else notice that the director is Dave Lister? I thought he was 3 million years into deep space hanging out with a cat, an android and a hologram.
When I was a kid we got a bootleg copy of "Jurassic Park II". All the packaging said Jurassic Park II, the tape contained the bizarre Denise Richards movie 'Tammy and the T-Rex'
This reminds me of a Frankie Boyle skit about a group of kids who meet a magical, wish-granting fairy. Unfortunately, the kids were from Glasgow, so they just torture the shit out of him.
Please don't get me wrong, I friggin' LOVE rifftrax and this one is hilarious as usual, but the ads are a bit much...maybe the most I've ever seen. Like, 2 ads every 5 minutes (literally) is insane. That means there are *thirty one* ads in this video
if you can't deal with ads, get a browser or extension that blocks them. if you feel guilty blocking ads, pay for youtube premium. if you're not willing to pay a couple bucks a month for ad free content, then just keep whining, I guess. see how well that works out for you.
@@sigurdgram Not everybody can afford youtube premium. And I don't really mind ads too much, just when it's every 4 or 5 minutes is ridiculous. You say "Bucks" so I assume you're American Iyes, I know Australia and Canada have dollars, too)...American TV has ads like every 5 or 6 minutes, too, so you're probably used to it, TV in my country only has ads every 15 minutes
Some ads are trying to play you - the gist is in the first 6 seconds so you can skip and they don't have to pay. But they're on the cheap tier being 15-30s long - I make em pay. Longer than that I skip.
Between these, "The Little Unicorn", and the "Fairy King", I wonder just what it was about the late nineties/early 2000s with minimalist fantasy movies with fake accents (bonus points if they include otherwise respectable actors).
Morgatron must be stopped - no matter the cost... I forgot this film existed. It kinda seems apparent that Disney was likely inspired by this, when they updated/abridged the idea for their own movie. (based on the Fantasia clip (based on the musical piece (based on the poem ))
Knowing there is a Weird Science era Kelly in this is a pleasant surprise in the manner of attending a funeral but hooking up with a hot distant cousin 😂
This is nowhere NEAR the WEIRD SCIENCE era (1985) - this movie is 2001. Kelly Le Brock is almost past her Use By date; you can tell by the desperate upsizing of her bosoms (what most 40+ women do to re-up their desirability). She's still hot, no doubt, but not a PATCH on her actual 1985 WEIRD SCIENCE self!...
59:02 "A couple more and she'll have half a Gwar!" The other Scumdogs of the Universe are still dealing with a drunken Lash LaRue on "The Dark Power" set.
It's crazy but when I see all the kids filing into class (@ 11:00) & the kid introduced to the class... it reminds me of the kids in the "The Wall" singing "we don't need no education".
I'm back. I had to go watch Ghost House first so I could refresh myself on the deep cut at the beginning. Yes, I've seen that before. But I've also seen Sorcerer's Apprentice before too. Why do you ask?
i fucken loved this movie as a kid! the kid used to host 'disney cartoon café' with a bunch of other kids. not sure if that was a thing everywhere or specifically in south africa 🤔
Program-hosting of that nature is always regional, usually only a small country or an area within a larger country is covered. Other areas had similar ones of course. It's too bad, because they could probably do well to 'franchise' and recycle the same programming block idea across different areas... ah, but that was back when TV was TV, it's all moot now.
Oh wow I got this! Byron Taylor was a main host on Yo-TV (a mainstream late 90s kids tv variety show with all kid hosts. “For kids by kids” that had interviews, music performances, kid friendly news portions and human interest stories as well as cartoons all introduced by the kids) on SABC for a couple of years before leaving to the UK to try being an actor. It was only rivalled by KTV on paid service channel MNet. The Disney Cartoon Cafe was one of their segments. The hosts really were childhood heroes for a lot of us, they all were household names.

An insane number of movies are guilty of this, it's baffling

I love how at times their accents can't decide if they are South African, British, or Australian
Well South African accents sort of sound like a bastard mix of Aussie and Brit. And I think the parents weren't from SA and they were trying their best to be South African and butchered it pretty hard.
Edit: Scratch that, reverse it. I couldn't remember which place this movie claimed to be from lol
Thank you; my ears were so confused 🤣 I kept guessing each of those & it kept changing!

1 minute into the movie... And i feel like I should see Bruce Campbell on a horse asking for directions to an evil graveyard
THAT would rule
Like... in a movie? Because I can totally see Bruce Campbell doing that in real life, too.
Nah, I just thing the opening set and crew looked like a scene from Army of Darkness
This dog of a film is beneath Bruce's standards. Which is really saying something.
Yes!!!!!
They filmed several "Teach me!" "No." "I hate you" "Wait!" Scenes and just...put them all in I guess!
I am pleased with the Elric joke. *Raises nerd goblet.* Do continue.

This is when you get a bootleg movie and then you tell kids is a Disney movie

Well, judging by the costumes in this.......LeBrock is definitely "bigger".
