Ep 2. Gamera

In the second episode of the third season of Mystery Science Theater 3000, the gang of wisecracking robots and their human host Joel settle in to watch the Japanese kaiju film Gamera. As the movie begins, they learn about the titular giant turtle-like creature who has the power to fly and shoot flames from his mouth.

Despite being a classic film in the kaiju genre, the team has plenty of commentary as they watch Gamera destroy buildings and battle other giant monsters. Joel and the bots take aim at the film's dialogue, effects, and even its moral lessons. They provide witty commentary throughout the movie, mocking everything from the overly dramatic acting to the terrible dubbing.

The gang's humor is on full display as they riff on nearly every aspect of the film, even turning the movie's serious moments into comedic gold. Joel, Tom Servo, and Crow T. Robot add their own sound effects, insert quips into the on-screen dialogue, and find the humor in every scene. Their non-stop jokes and puns make for a hilarious viewing experience that will have viewers laughing out loud.

As the film progresses, Gamera battles several other monsters, with plenty of destruction along the way. The MST3K crew adds their own quips to the action, poking fun at the movie's plot and special effects. They even create a parody song about Gamera's love of children, which becomes a running gag throughout the episode.

While Gamera may be a beloved classic to kaiju fans, Mystery Science Theater 3000 tackles the film with their trademark humor and wit, making for an entertaining viewing experience. The episode is a must-see for fans of the show and for those looking for some laughs with a classic kaiju film.
