The Hobbit Hole XIV - Hill and Water Under Sky
See our freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net home page! ^

Posted on 08/05/2004 5:47:31 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Hill and water under sky

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Didn't they used to use giant iguana shots as dinosaurs? I seem to recall that at least Flash Gordon (Buster Crabbe) fought one

They did used to do that in "Flash Gordon", and also in some 50s US monster movies. I think one was "The Giant Gila Monster".

Heh.

Richard Burton's not doing too well right now.

I don't remember MST3K ever doing "Them"--I think that one was classic enough to be off-limits for them. They did do The Giant Spider Invasion, though.

Oh, yeah, Gecko-Roman Wrestling. There was an MST3K ep that featured that, either first or second season. Can't remember which one it was, though. Corman or Lippert film, I think.

MST3K never did "Them!", but they did do "Phase IV", in Season Zero.

Doesn't he get really sick or something?

Well....he's kinda going off the deep end: tried to swim to China. They got him tied down to a hammock.

I've never seen the MSTYfied version of that, just the straight one--which is really, really awful :)

Yep, that's the crazy guy in the hammock part I remember :) Didn't know he was trying to swim to China--yeah, I'd say that's going off the deep end! :)

He's getting better.

But I think the old guy just died.

LOL! I remember that line, though not the movie it went with. Never saw "Phase IV", I don't think.

Well, Kikuchiyo is insane but yes, Katsushiro's the most interesting. Of course some of them don't have very distinct personalities... Kikuchiyo, Katsushiro, and Kambei are really the only ones I can identify without question...

I suppose having multiple Japanese names all beginning with "K" doesn't help make them any more distinct :) Which part are you at?

I thought they did one about giant ants invading desert towns.

Well except for the old guy dying, it looks like it's going to turn out all right. Richard Burton ends up with Ava Gardner.

I'm thinking it was Robot Monster, which apparently borrowed "dinosaur" footage from One Million B.C..

Phase IV, hmmm... basically, desert ants get smart and attack a remote scientific outpost, eventually taking it over and hypnotically enslaving the man and woman who survive the attack. Early-70's monster/horror flick, heavily influenced by the Psychedelic Age.
