Weekend Discussion Thread: MSTed Movie Characters in the Olympics

Well, the Olympics are here again, so let’s have at them.

What characters from MSTed movies do you think would take the gold in some event? Give us your MSTed movie Olympic team!

Mine would just be Hercules. Is that cheating? Are demigods allowed?

What does your team look like?

Keep those topic suggestions coming in!

    Of course, Hercules competing is not cheating. Most of the Greek Myth guys were all about being in the Olympics. As long as you tell them beforehand that clothes is a requirement nowadays.

    I see Beverly Garland winning the steeplechase competition.
    Erica Page (Allison Hayes) is more of a dressage person (and she’d probably
    just buy the horse and have Cane Miro ride it). That’s after wimpy guy is turned down as a rider and is heard muttering “I don’t like him.”

    Btw, I see Biff Hardcheese (Space Mutiny) winning numerous weight lifting medals,
    spurred on by his date/coach spurring him on saying “Move, move, move!”
    (Now if only there was a bumper car event in the Olympics he could clean up
    the floor with the competition.

    Kind of a tangent away from the competitors, but I could see Tor Johnson, Torgo, Ortega, or Joe Don Baker as gymnastic coaches…..yikes. Yeah, I know.

    Wait, we also need The Dad Of Yucca Flats for the track meet. I mean, the guy can outrun an airplane. That’s impressive.

    I would love to see Vi from Tormented try out for the lighthouse high jump. Unfortunately, no one ever makes it past the qualifying round…and I mean NO ONE!

    Touch Connor’s lady from Swamp Diamonds for Water Polo

    Master Ninja’s mastery of reflexes make him perfect for Ping Pong. Speaking of which, Tim Van Patten would be great for the Javelin…provided he was the javelin of course. Also, Tim’s girlfriends from Master Ninja could all be gymnasts, because they are young enough for it after all.

    Finally, and delving into Cinematic Titanic, I go with the Astral Factor bad guy for any Track and Field event.

    This just in: Torgo has been eliminated from the Speed Walking trials (yes, speed walking is an olympic event) for taking performance enhancing drugs. Asked for a comment, Mr. Torgo just twitched and touched the female reporter inaproprietly.

    ‘Megaweapon’ running the marathon naturally. Pose for a few pics at the starting line then kick it into 5th and crunch the competition to bring home the gold.

    The Clones from “Parts, the Clonus Horror”. At the beginning of the movie it looks like life is a constant track meet, so they’re already training.

    Another advantage to having a ninja assassin as your athlete is their being able to hurl throwing stars into the backs of competitors out in front in a race.

  28. An idea for water polo: The game ends when a team gets 10 goals and that has to be done within a certain time limit. Should the time limit expire the cage located at the bottom of the pool will be opened unleashing Devil Fish.
