MST3K Quiz - Neatorama

Today's Lunchtime Quiz at mental_floss tests your memory of Joel, Mike, the Bots, and the movies of Mystery Science Theater 3000. I loved the show, but was still surprised that I scored as high as 70%. Can you beat that? http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/16097

The episode with the shocks was Lost Continent - show 208. Joel refuses to go into the theater at about 5:38 in this clip and the shocks follow.

Lost Continent

(And thirded on the meta-question :-)

Poopie! I only got 70%, but I agree with the meta-question thing.

I got 50%, but I´m not a huge fan.

on a semi-related note...my doctor's name is Dr Forrester. whenever i say his name it makes me giggle because, in my head, i'm adding, "...and TV's Frank".

The Mads cut off the air to the satellite, I've never seen an episode featuring electric shocks. That said, I've never seen all of season 1, so maybe they do that too. In any case, the movie quite clearly shows that Forrester can cut off the oxygen if Joel doesn't get into the theater.

Also, the question about which celeb hasn't professed his love? That's not an MST3K question, it's some kind of meta-question. I'm bitter because I got it wrong.

All I heard was particles, atoms and frequencies and didn't understand any of it. But I'm a bit dumb :P. Although I did think of the multiverse theory when I was 7, without ever hearing of it before - not kidding.

Is the kooky accent just a bonus, or is that really how Sandy Chase sounds?

Sandy Chase is a man. I hope that is not his voice.

Try to explain physic basics in a week. good luck. dork.

I thought it was pretty good. We're talking bout trying to explain what's widely accepted as the most advanced and accurate model of Physical Science... and do it in 2 minutes.

I mean, come on. If you think it's not that hard, or if you think this particular video was done poorly, why
don't you give this little experiment a try:

Try to explain to a 45yr old man or woman how to play Madden 2007 football on the X-Box Console in 2 minutes. Maybe that will help put in to perspective for you the difficulty with which the above video must have been conceived.

Good, but scientists are starting to move beyond string theory. Just when I was starting to understand it!

Abusive comment hidden. (Show it anyway.)

i dont think they are moving beyond string theory (m-theory) but there is frustration because you can't test it yet, so some believe it is a waste of time. i think that a lot of it is based on it trying to be the "theory of everything"--think it scares some people
