Weekend Discussion Thread: The Amazing Colossal Episode Guide

Alert reader “Professor Gunther” writes:

I’ve always wanted to know what other MSTies think of the episode guide–the book version, I mean. I consult it regularly, and in particular I have always been struck by the contributors’ different writing styles. For example, after awhile it got so that I could start reading a description of a movie and determine that Paul Chaplin wrote it. (I also LOVE how Mary Jo and Paul needle each other throughout the book!

An interesting topic. There a number of goofs in the book. Let’s see if we can identify all. And of course it would have been great to have Joel’s participation. In fact, wouldn’t it be great to have a new edition that includes Joel’s comments?

Anyway, your thoughts about the ACEG?

    The Amazing Colossal Episode Guide has provided me with an infinite amount of amusement…all right, perhaps that is a bit of hyperbole, but I have always enjoyed the casts’ take on the movies they were riffing on and the behind the scenes workings to select thost movies. Every once in a while, I’ll break it out to remember those days in the 90s (wow, was it really that long ago) when friends and I would sit around the television laughing hysterically at the show…
    I’m sure I am not the first to ask this nor I’m sure will I be the last, but is there any chance of a show revival? There are so many bad movies out there in need of a good ragging on…

  3. I’d love to have a new version of ACEP that would include the Sci-Fi years and a more detailed section on season 7. Of course I’d have to have the CT crew sign that like my older version of the book! :twisted:
