Film watched: The Girl in Lovers Lane

The MST3K presentation of this movie contains examples of:
"Servo: And the moral is "Never love a pygmy!"
 * Contemplate Our Navels: Literally — Crow and Tom each drill themselves a bellybutton. Upon getting his, Crow starts contemplating it.
 * Continuity Nod: "To live like the E-lam, to be like the E-lam..."
 * Joel and the Bots compare Jesse to Torgo.
 * Canon Discontinuity: Crow and Servo, upset at the ending, come up with their own instead, which involves Carrie living, Jack Elam getting abducted by aliens, Danny and Bix taming dinosaurs in a post-apocalyptic world, and a kingdom of pygmies. Frank comes up with his own, which involves Bix as a being of pure energy.
 * Fix Fic: The final host segment consists of Joel and the Boys rewriting the ending to remove Carrie's death from the plot.
 * My Name Is Not Durwood: Joel and the Bots mishear Bix Dugan's name as "Big Stupid", and keep referring to him as such.
 * Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot: Crow and Servo's alternate ending is just full of this.
 * Spoof Aesop: In Crow and Servo's bizarre alternate ending to the movie

Crow: Because...they're immortal!

Servo: Yeah!

Crow: And they can fly!

Servo: Mm-hm!

Crow: And you can't fly!"

"Joel: (singing) The Girl In Lovers' Lane...
 * Train Song: "The Train Song" a.k.a. "What a Pleasant Journey"
 * With Lyrics: Joel and the Bots make lyrics up for the movie's theme tune. See Crowning Moment of Funny.

Crow: With Jack Elam, not Jack La-Lanne. (Servo: Not La-La-a-ane...)

Joel: And lots of actors, there's no time to name...

Crow: A screenplay by Joe Heims that's pretty lame. (Servo: Pretty lame...)

Servo: The entire crew, feels a sense of shame. (Crow: Shame.) If only they'd had / half a brain / they could attain / a measure of fame / from a film like Shane! / But no. To their disdain, / The Girl In Lov-ers Lane!

Joel: (Makes Rawhide whip crack noise.)"
