The Reds are everywhere!
Mar. 28th, 2006 04:22 pmI'm not entirely sure why my brain switched to this particular topic last night, but I realised something about the host segments in Soultaker last night.
Joel had to be lying.
I realise that cannon in the MST3K universe is extrodinary streachy, but there is no possible way for Joel to be telling the truth about Dr. Forrester progrming the Satellite of Love to self-destruct in ten years. This is because for the Sci-Fi era to even exist his statement has to be false. After all, the date at the begining of the eighth season was 2525 - and the Satellite of Love had been skimming thought the universe for about 530 years at this point. And even I know that 530 is way more than 10.
Okay, so now since my brain still refuses to not shut up - and because I thought I had more and better reasoning for the above point - the reason why Joel could have been telling the truth.
Dr. Forrester programmed something on the Satellite of Love to blow it up, not in ten years, but on a specfic date. Now, since everyone became beings of pure engery and almost everyone left the satellite at the end of Laserblast, it's possible that someone on the satellite other than Crow was programmed to destroy the SatellIT of Love on a specific date. And since hacking the 'bots is giving the MADS way too many points for compentcy than they deserve, that leaves Mike and Magic Voice. And while Mike does display a propencty for blowing stuff up, I think that Dr. F was just sane enough to realise that programing Mike to destory the satellite might mess his mind up to make him unuseable as a test subject.
So that leaves Magic Voice. And for some rason, this makes sense that this would be her almost complete reason for existing in the first place since the only thing I can recall her running was the console and perhaps the Hexfield.
Buit that's not to say that Magic Vice was a kamakazi pilot. I't smore likely that the MADS just stuck her up there with a secret subroutine that she never knew existed even when they started plunging from the sky.
And since I'm pointing fingers, Cambot also fits as an plant. Heck, Cambot makes a little more sense in one regard since Magic would seem to be the more obvious cannidate to distract from Cambot's secret threat.
But this is much more sane sounding to my reasoning why the Guardiens exist in the Buffyverse. *nods*

It made my heart ache.I once tried to think of why things were in the Buffyverse, but my head exploded. So, after scraping up the goo, I chalked everything up to Buffy's fault and Hellmouth-y badness. *nods* Yup. *shrug*

Oh sheez...do you think that maybe he crash landed? *is now all bothered about it*
NO! HE LIVES! AND VISITS M&TBs ON A REGULAR BASIS! AND HE'S GOT ZOMBIES TO KILL! AND-AND-AND...STUFF! *runs away crying*

I was thinking about this a little earlier: I think when he crashed in Aurstralia the first time, he either died in the landing or died trying to walk out of the scrub lands, because a person just plunked down in a desert can walk a very long time, but nothing like 200 km. So it was like his ghost turned up on the SOL to rescue them.
Or that he just died soon after his trip up when he got his by a car while crssing the street.
