Space Mutiny is one of my favorite episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000, and not because they borrow footage from the original Battlestar Galactica, which we’d all rather be watching honestly. It’s probably the running gag of different action hero names for the hero of the story, played by Reb Brown. The 1988 movie takes place on a colony ship where the military commander named after bubble bath is plotting a mutiny, space witches decide to tag along but never leave their ship, and our hero pursues his girlfriend (played by Brown’s wife, Cisse Cameron) and the baddies. Also people have a habit of not being dead without fanfare but I’m sure those totally aren’t editing mistakes. Nobody would be that inattentive. Of course the real question is how this will affect Sherri’s birthday party. You’ll find other trivia at the MST3k fandom wiki page on the episode.
This episode comes from the Sci-Fi Channel years of MST3k as the Satellite Of Love becomes mobile, blows up a lot of planets accidentally, and is chased by Pearl Forrester, mother of Clayton Forrester (established during the Comedy Central years), and her minions Bobo from a planet of apes that used to be Earth, and Brain Guy, the last of a race of people with great psionic powers who keep their brains in plates they carry around. At this point they were also trapped orbiting ancient Rome as Pearl deals with a snobby woman trying to prove they aren’t gods. It didn’t go well, and now our villains are in a dungeon. Sadly this won’t benefit our heroes since they have to sit through…Space Mutiny! Enjoy, won’t you?

How Many People Have The Entertainment Industry Ticked Off?
I’ve been spending the day sleeping and watching a playthrough of Assassin’s Creed: Shadows. I already have articles covering this game’s failings leading up to today’s launch here, here, and here, and even in the hours before launch it still managed to get on people’s nerves, the Japanese government’s nerves, the franchise’s fans’ nerves, historians’ nerves…basically everyone it can piss off is pissed off. Watch Az from HeelVsBabyface playing through the game on and off (he’s over 8 hours in just when I stopped to get something out today), there’s also bad AI in a game where you’re supposed to stealthily kill people, odd dialog, and decent visuals. So basically James Cameron’s Avatar franchise is the standard.
Since I’ve gone over this game so much a new angle would be trying to compile a list of everyone mad at this game, but why stop there? The Hollywood mindset, which includes non-Hollywood connected video games (who wish they were Hollywood) and comics (the top two companies owned by Hollywood for lazy idea collecting for the “important” media), has got a lot of people mad and they aren’t afraid to go online and let an uncaring Hollywood, and the people Hollywood keeps trying to get money out of, all about it.
While this won’t be a complete or comprehensive list, since that would take way too long, it is an overview of everyone the entertainment industry has ticked off, because it’s surprisingly not just the fans. I am going to start with them, though.
