Newspaper ads shouted, "THE GREEN SLIME ARE COMING!" They are one-eyed monsters whose tentacles multiply when shot. Astronauts Richard Jaeckle and Robert Horton represent Earth's best hope, assuming they stop fighting over Luciana "Thunderball" Paluzzi in her hot miniskirt. This became the pilot movie for Mystery Science Theater 3000 and inspired The Green Slime Award, given annually to the worst science fiction movie. It's theme song was a minor hit. Here's the trailer.

What a crap song. What crap monsters. What cheesy sets.
Yep. Perfect for Lockout Theater.
Guys: Tony Oliva elected to the hall. A great player deserving of the honor. Bit his stats are almost identical to Mattingly: 830 OPS, 304 average; 220 Homers. Oliva had more speed, Mattingly better defense. Were top players in their day, but both had careers affected by injuries.
Mattingly for Hall if Fame
Great point, Ceeja!

Ceeja - so maybe Mattingly gets in in 20 years. That'd be ok.
IMPORTANT TRIVIA: The Green Slime was co-written by Bill Finger, long-uncredited co-creator (I would say primary creator) of a little piece of intellectual property called Batman.
Anyone know who the narrator was? It seemed as though he was in EVERYTHING for three or four decades... Some great cheese!
