Find my comment snes.. poor little boy. He asked for a papa or even a mama. Pretty sad I guess this shit was long before you snes I over edited snes I guess that little boy crushed my heart
I own a copy; it was $2.00 on Amazon. There was a lot that was cut out: the entire dance in hell, the dolls in Lupita's nightmare shambling out of the presents like zombies and dancing, Merlin in his lab making sleeping powder for Santa to use and giving him the magic flower, Santa using a vibrating exerciser belt to lose weight so he can fit down chimneys, and the keymaster forging a magic key for Santa. Granted, all those scenes were way too long.
Guess the American distributors thought the treacly scenes involving that rich kid & his negligent parents will bring in bigger box office receipts. Boy, were they wrong. 🤷🏻♂️
i saw a old episode of What's My Line that reminds me of that. this little girl writes a advice column. they said as a example, a girl complains she has 3 brothers and wishes she had a sister. Gene Shalit went, introduce me to your mom.
Makes sense. I mean, a sleigh and reindeer don’t have a big radar cross section. It took NORAD how many years to come up with a tracking system to beat that?
I've watched this about every year since 1993, including the simulcast theater lives. As much bad as there is in this film I always enjoy Lupita bravely resisting evil and getting a huge dolly for Christmas. "That's not a doll, that's a sister!" still comes to mind whenever I see those huge Elsa or Darth Vader toys. And I always remember that there are poor children who want "a dolly, any dolly" for the holidays so donate to make that happen. Thanks for the excellent upload. Remember folks, keep circulating the tapes.
233monte it's the funniest episode ever made love to watch this episode and this movie uncut every year and Santa Claus conquers the Martians mst3k episode is also the funniest watch that episode every year😇
Chris Cullen28 Nope. Santa’s brownies are addressed in a Rifftrax live show. Either that or it’s the confection that Willie Nelson leaves out each year for St. Nick.
lol, you should santa claus and the ice cream bunny saw that on rifftrax live DVD laughing so hard at it and watch the mst3k version of Santa Claus conquers the martians it's the funniest episode ever made the rifftrax live version was hilarious, just saw the cinematic titanic version last year on shoutfactorytv website though it was hilarious, saw santa claus conquers the martians on the archive webstie fall asleep watching it
"And now the hollow feeling that follows any puppet show." I know. When i hear the MST3K closing credits, I always feel so hollow knowing that the show is over. (MST3K = Best puppet show ever!)
Actually the show was revived on Netflix by Joel and 40+ thousand Kickstarter backers. There's 2 new seasons on Netflix right now with a total of 20 new episodes. Different host, different mads and different bot voices but it's the riffing I love so I love all MST3K.
Oh yeah there's a 24/7 MST3K channel on Pluto. There's a RiffTrax channel too (Rifftrax is Mike, Kevin, Bill, Mary Jo & Bridget riffing good and bad movies for anyone who doesn't know).
ngl, Lupita's sad eyes during her moral quandary was REALLY moving. I don't know if she was that great an actress or if her mom "spurred" towards sadness like Natalie Woods' mom did. But yeah. Sure. I did tear up.
@@Psychohistorian42 Pretty funny, I haven't watched this since I made the comment. And just today it came on randomly as I was letting a playlist play out. not even because it's christmas day! that's funny to me you commented on it too. but yeah. I just rewatched the scene today too, when it came on. I have a lot of mexican family so maybe I have a soft spot there too.
She’s one of the cutest kids I’ve ever seen in a movie. And actually she reminds me a lot of my daughter so now it hits me extra hard. That’s an extraordinarily cute little girl. You can’t help but root for her to get a dolly.
mine is santa claus from 1959,santa claus conquers the martians,eegah,fugitive alien,manos hands of fate,moon zero two,pod people, teenagers from outer space earth vs the spider are the funniest mst3k episodes ever made watch this episode and the mst3k episode santa claus conquers the martians ever year i watch santa claus from 1959 uncut every year too
The mother says that Christmas makes her sad, then Mike says kind of under his breath and a lot of other people, I know what he means, when you get older and all your family is gone the memories come flooding back of when everyone was together, I have my two sisters and that's it, I almost wish it wouldn't come every year.
@@LoneKharnivore This is true unfortunately, my mom passed away six years ago at 91, I live alone with my cats, 11 years ago my fiance decided she didn't want to get married and wanted to become a nun, I was friends with her twin sister and husband but they didn't want any thing to do with me two years after she left and women only want men with money so I never bothered trying to find another, my two sisters live in Colorado and come visit for Christmas but she brings her husband my brother in law who in plain English is a real dumbass, it's a pleasure when they leave, my older sister is 69 and a widow, I don't know why I'm going on about this, yeah Christmas to me isn't what it used to be, except for the birth of Jesus of course it has become just another day.
@@Peter-pv8xx I do feel sorrow and sympathy for you, Peter...even if I also feel sure that you wouldn't want to be a source of the former, and would prefer something a bit more practical than the latter. ☹️ 😐 🙂
Yep. After The Vampire chicks, and Pitch failed him, he decided to take matters into his own hands... only to lose a fiddle duel to a guy named Johnny.
It's great to watch Frank and his savings bond on Christmas 2022! Two more weeks till you get that $25, Frank won't like how little he can get with it. BTW, that's a parody of The Gift of the Magi.
There is no better Christmas tradition than watching this.Like many others, I've been watching every year.It's the only holiday thing that cheers me up anymore 😀
So, how many takes did it take to have Crow's disembodied eyes land perfectly on the counter, staring towards the camera c. 2:13? ;-)) The show was shear brilliance even when it came to happenstance.
I feel like them falling apart was semi-improv, like it happened on accident on one take and it was really funny so they just started using that instead
@@HylianFox3 I swear to god, the entire opening from 1:55 onward is so stupid I can't even try to make sense of it. For context, the thermos full of hot cocoa is in THE PERFECT SPOT and aimed at THE PERFECT ANGLE to turn Crow into a Super Saiyan via extensive third degree burns, and once it happens at 2:04, Crow wildly moves in exactly the right trajectory in order knock Tom Servo's gumball machine themed head off, leaving HIM to rocket forward at exactly the right trajectory to send Gypsy spinning into Mike and then causing ALL OF THEM TO COLLAPSE. Sure, it's just a show and I'm supposed to just relax, but still!
@@GlitchanBlack You do know it's satire, right? It's really more about the laughs and less about making sense. Perhaps you're seeking a documentary instead?
Never skip anything with MST. There are treasures everywhere & the details amaze. Watched seasons K - 10 well over 20 times & new stuff still comes up.
Interestingly, the Latin American countries have a history of being more lenient to Africans than their northern neighbor. Still, it's supposedly comforting in a way to know that it's not only Anglos who can succumb to displays of racial shorthand. 🤨 ☹️ 🙂 😕
I also liked this video as a kid but I also knew something was wrong. Ole Santa made a mess of that internationals kidsmusical fiasco. Never cared for this Santa. But the devil was fascinating. Kinda stupid but terrifying. For some reason, I needed MST3K to watch it this year. Thanks MST3K.
Frank's bond will, at long last, be coming to fruition in a matter of days. I hope he's kept it in a safe place.
he is dead according to the shows lore.
Never knew that Santa's place is located in SPACE above the North Pole. That's one way to stay safe from those pesky polar bears.
@@buttchop2041 maybe he was able to bring it with him to Second Banana Heaven
@@danielle1975 I hope so!!! it was a horrible gift poor Frank!
@@buttchop2041 That hasn't stopped him from appearing before.
After waiting so long, Frank FINALLY gets his $25!
"This _weird_ enough for ya, kids? How does this make you feel about _Santa_?" Mike's delivery there kills me every time
funniest episode ever made
Omg SNESDrunk?? You like MST3K too??🤩🤩🤩

So happy that TV's Frank finally gets his Christmas gift!
Can't believe it will be 2023 already. At long last, Frank will finally get his $25.
THE SCENE WITH THE KIDS SINGING DRAGS ON FOR ALMOST FIFTEEN MINUTES!
Thanks for the heads up. Yawn.
And culturally inappropriate for these times, in some cases.
@@jbvideos6605 Anyone else notice how they have Japan, England, France, Russia...and "Africa" and "The Orient", which are apparently countries?
I cannot imagine anybody, at any time, watching this movie in its original form.
I own it. The uncut version has the full creepy dancing doll number.
Mexican tradition at this point, most of us may love to riff this movie, though

Yeah. The movie is low key wholesome as heck.
T.V.'s Frank can now cash in that $25 savings bond! Merry Christmas!
6:27 "Santa Claus vs. the Aztec Mummy." Dear God, I hope not, otherwise we won't be seeing Santa until the last ten minutes.
Also, Mrs. Claus gets put under hypnosis and it's up to Merlin to stop the big bad from getting Popoca's treasure.
I guess Frank's bond has finally matured. Shame he's already in second banana heaven working as a soultaker.
3 more years and Frank can finally get his 25 dollars.
Now it's 2 years!
I wonder if he can redeem a government bond while he's soultaking in Second Banana Heaven
2 more years.
Posthumously! Put the certificate in one of those Chinese "Hell Money" envelopes and burn it and he'll have $25.00 in Second-Banana Heaven.
Thanks to inflation that 25$ is closer to 48$
I used to be a Joel "snob", but this episode made me love mike just as much. good god is it great.
I always liked Mike more. Joel was good but a little too much of a stoner vibe.
233monte it's the funniest episode ever made love to watch this episode and this movie uncut every year and Santa Claus conquers the Martians mst3k episode is also the funniest watch that episode every year😇
K Radz I love both😊
I kinda warmed up to Mike at around the Sci-Fi channel seasons.
This ep cemented how great Mike is for me too:)
So Santa employs child labor to manufacture his toys.....and this is only ten minutes in
No, no, no, those are brownies, not children !
lol

One of my favorite lines ever. 🎅🤣
Rivendell had better healthcare and a 401k.
that line is golden!!! ♊🙏
22:17 "This weird enough for ya folks? How does this make you feel about Santa?" Best riff in the episode.
I shudder to think what gets shoved into that big poochie mouth when the kids aren't around
1:27:46
Narrator: "He is happy, gay-"
Crow, happily surprised: "Oh!"
This moment made me spit out my water 😂
Happy 30 years to this episode! Frank finally got his 25 dollars this year! Though hes dead by now, still 🎉
Merry Savings Bond Day, Frank!!!!!
"No no, stealing is bad, and I want to be good."
Can't argue with that lol.
"Kid should be a lawyer."

Wow, this took a dark turn.
This one makes "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" look like a cinematic triumph by comparison.

"Hey can we move onto a Country with some Rhythm!?"
Well there IS Africa - wait, it's a continent, not a country

As a Mexican American, I can tell you exactly what her motive was: her actual mother standing just offstage, brandishing a chancla.
She’s one of the cutest kids I’ve ever seen in a movie. And actually she reminds me a lot of my daughter so now it hits me extra hard. That’s an extraordinarily cute little girl. You can’t help but root for her to get a dolly.
The little kid that's rich only wanting to be with his mom and dad for Christmas is precious to me also.
3:47 watching this on Christmas morning 2023 and my mind is officially blown
"That is a mouth, isn't it?" LOL!
Either that or Mick Jagger made a guest appearance....

Right there with ya, homie! Merry ChristMst3k

You can have Love Actually, Christmas Vacation, and Elf. I'll always have MST3K's Santa Claus.
So true how much do those 'popular' ones suck candy canes.
Don’t forget the pure cringe that Hallmark spews out year after year
The laughimg robotic reindeer is the stuff nightmares are made of. Imagine watching this when you were 7.
Is not too scary

Today was the first time I ever noticed Gypsy's reference to Joel at 4:46. I usually skip the opening segments.
Never skip anything with MST. There are treasures everywhere & the details amaze. Watched seasons K - 10 well over 20 times & new stuff still comes up.
We all miss Joike...i mean Joel.
I would definitely pay to see Santa and Pitch in a cage match and call it “Hell in a cell”
The second that I heard, “These little helpers are from Africa”, I was like, oh we are about to get some old timey racism right now.
Interestingly, the Latin American countries have a history of being more lenient to Africans than their northern neighbor. Still, it's supposedly comforting in a way to know that it's not only Anglos who can succumb to displays of racial shorthand. 🤨 ☹️ 🙂 😕
I propose that there is a distinction between stereotyping (ignorance, generalization) and racism (hatred, xenophobia).
This movie actually coined the now famous term "Nightmare Fuel"
