Mystery Science Theatre -3000


Welcome to Cerealia's latest attraction. In an effort to branch into other forms of entertainment, CERES has been slowly patching together films from various worlds to show in its brand new movie theater. So, grab a friend, sit back, and enjoy the newest batch of imported films with a nice bucket of popcorn. As you'll notice from the long line outside, it's the latest rage in the colony, and those tired of the same virtual battles in ViViD are eager to enjoy a little change in scenery.

For those eager to participate, you will find yourself being lead into the lobby by one of the many robotic theater employees. Showing today are five special films, and in the lobbies are various screens advertising them through the movie's digital avatar, Mnemosyne. Allow her to take you on a virtual tour of CERES' finest theatrical offerings.

(( P.S. no actual actors/actresses appear in any of the films. It's all done through advanced CGi-technology and voice acting. ))
"GOOD EVENING, MOVIE-GOERS. I AM MNEMOSYNE, YOUR GUIDE FOR THIS EVENING.

AS YOU CAN SEE, WE HAVE SEVERAL CONCESSIONS FOR YOU. PLEASE PARTAKE IN THE CONCESSIONS, BUT DO NOT MAKE A MESS. THE THEATER ROBOTS HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED TO TAKE ACTION FOR LITTERING.

THEATER I
[ 00:00 ] MY PETITE EQUESTRIAN EXPERIENCE - RATED A

Advertised as a delightful tale of ponies discovering magic and friendship, this is a must-see! For adults that is. The ponies are killed within the first ten minutes, and then the rest of the run time is filled with a celebratory orgy of Roman-esque proportions. There are no mentions of ponies after the initial scene. They are neither seen nor mourned nor heard from. There are only naked, gyrating bodies as far as the eye can see.

If you manage to sit through the horror long enough, you will notice a certain something in between the moaning. Is that your face on one of the protags? Is it a beloved family member or a friend? You will find that spliced between the scenes are cherished and innocent childish memories now being soiled by passionate cries of pleasure. Enjoy the new memory, your poor, sweet summer child. This will only be visible to the viewer himself/herself.
THEATER II
[ 00:00 ] LARGE ADVENTURER 7 - RATED B

A touching tale of dealing with loss and more loss. This film is about a giant robot and his pet human that gets eradicated in the Third Robotic Genocide, leaving behind just a human carcass. The giant robot clings to the carcass and cries robotic tears until finally he chucks the carcass into a river full of carcasses and decides to go on a deep quest in search of cheese.

But spliced between this tale of woe, viewers will see images of themselves caught in a romantic memory. A first kiss, perhaps? A first love-making session? A first crush? A desired one will also have their face molded on top of all the carcasses as they flow away. This will only be visible to the viewer himself/herself.

THEATER III
[ 00:00 ] THE RETALIATORS: ERA OF RADICALON - RATED C

Agent Dick Angry takes it upon himself to assemble a team of miscreant aliens to invade the hell out of "Planet Earth." The aliens include Zorn, an intelligent toaster; Crisis, a blue-skinned beauty that turns purple when she's aroused; Trish, a rogue miniature ficus with a criminal record; and General Cerealia, a handsome, ripped man who beats evil-doers with his laptop and who looks suspiciously like CERES' programmer, Elias.

This adventurous romp will feature the tragic memories of death interweaving with the destruction of the "Planet Earth." Those who attend will see first-hand the memories of their own worlds slowly being demolished before their eyes and all their loved ones screaming in agony. Then it'll loop itself again and again for the last hour of the film. Enjoy! This will only be visible to the viewer himself/herself.
THEATER IV
[ 00:00 ] DECEASE HARDER II - RATED D

Jack McJack is a cop who is having none of your shit. In this action film, he will ride around on a velociraptor and go around punching evil-doers and detonating them with land mines. If you want all the violence in the world, this is the film for you. Watch as every second is filled with pointless explosions and every curse word in all the known languages in Cerealia.

Of course, spliced between every action scene will be every embarrassing moment of your life being played out for you and only you. Or is it? Start sweating and looking in every direction as you begin to wonder if everyone else can see that time you tripped and fell on your senpai almost kissing him (sacre bleu D= !)
BONUS - THEATER V
[ why:o'clock ] YARD-DOOR PEOPLE OF QUESTIONABLE MORALS - RATED Z

This is a touching film about tenderness and coming together to overcome obstacles and achieve greatness. The Yard-Door people run into danger when an evil megalord starts polluting the air with negative feelings. The Yard-Door people must band together and save the world through kindness. They will go and help their neighbors get across the street, rake up leaves from their lawns, donate canned food to the poor, and collect toys for children who do not have any.

While this film will draw tears from your eyes, you will see happy memories. The happiest that can be mustered. They will be spliced in with the scenes in the movie, occurring side-by-side with all the smiles and fuzzy feelings leaking off the screens. This will only be visible to the viewer himself/herself.

Also, beware! This film contains the angriest of Theater Cleaning Robots. Dropping anything on the floor will result in a bit of a flogging with a wooden paddle and a robot calling you a dirty slut and claiming that you like it. Yes, BDSM robots will not take your bad behavior. You better bend over and start apologizing for being such a filthy, little theater-goer.

[Yeah. Kuzco definitely stopped listening. What was so funny about that whole spiel he definitely couldn't say. From what words he did pick up, the whole thing sounded like a total bore.]

Uh-huh...

[All at once Kuzco finds the underside of his fingernails to be much more interesting and turns his focus on them.]

That's great for you. Seriously. I bet you're a real blast at parties.

[Wow. This was awkward. He had no one to blame but himself. Better play it off like it was nothing--]

Oh, y'know, I've been known to uh-- [He pushes up his glasses, roll his shoulders and puts on a tone of affected confidence... before looking at his conversation partner's face again and deciding to drop that entirely.]

I uh. Got a lot-- lot of work to do, usually.

[He got invited to parties in Atlantis OK.]

Uh-- Milo Thatch. [Subject change! He puts an awkward smile this time, extending his hand to shake.] Ni-Nice to meet you.
oldgroove: (How else can I say this?)

[personal profile] oldgroove 2015-03-10 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
The name's Kuzco.

[He looks down at the hand extended to him, clearly unimpressed, but slowly brings his hand down toward it. He's still not completely sure if he's going to touch it at all, so he's leaving himself the opportunity to yank his hand back at the last second. Hey, you never know. This could be some sort of assassination attempt and one can't be to careful.]

Emperor Kuzco.

[You know, the one and only? His eyebrow raises in clear expectation. He's sort of a big deal, Milo has to have heard of him.]

[personal profile] pauseforeffect 2015-03-10 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
[For a moment he watches Kuzco's hand kind of... hover... there... but after a moment of pause Milo takes it upon himself to reach out and take Kuzco's hand with gusto, shaking it with a sort of loose, cheerful energy trying to be politely contained, before he releases his grip.]

Kuzco...?

[No he's never really heard of an Emperor Kuzco, but judging by the look on the face he does know to demonstrate the proper respect for someone in that position. He brings a hand up to cup the bottom half of his face, idly rubbing his chin and tapping his finger.]

That's uh-- Peru, right? Or... [Maybe, but judging by the clothes...] Incan? Definitely Pre-Columbian South America, if I'm not mistaken.
oldgroove: (Who's in my chair?)

[personal profile] oldgroove 2015-03-10 06:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Kuzco cradles his arm to his chest and rubs it as if it's been wounded. Which it probably has. Look at those limp noodles. He doesn't seem particularly appeased by the answer, either, but is accepting it enough not to start screaming--which is a good sign.]

Uh, the Kuzconian Empire, where else?

[The name says it all, baby.]

Why should I know anything beyond that? If it's not my empire, I don't care.

[Milo was right about it being Incan, of course, but Kuzco was never much one for learning. They probably didn't even have the same names for the region back then.

He gives Milo a judgmental once over, as if he's looking at him for the first time.]


And where, exactly, are you supposed to be from?

[Besides the bottom of a dirty hamper. Wherever Milo hails from, Kuzco's sure to be unimpressed.]
pauseforeffect: (pic#8911236)

[personal profile] pauseforeffect 2015-03-10 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
Uh-- me? Washington, United States of America. I spent a few years studying in England. [See, that was concise! And a whole lot easier than explaining he used to live under the ocean.

Still. What this guy says kinda bothers him.]


But you're... you're the Emperor, aren't you? [His tone is almost-- surprised? Curious? Stating these sort of things like it's obvious, though in an informative and expectant way rather than something condescending.] You you gotta know your region, how good the land is, any natural threats, where the borders of other geo-political powers or nations or empires are, un-understanding how they work and making contact with their diplomats even if it's to establish your own borders--

[Uh. Right. Rambling. Again. He re-composes himself from the wide gesture he's ended up in yet again.] I mean... you're the leader of all of your people, they look up to you-- you gotta at least know what's around you, right?
oldgroove: (Everything was going my way.)

[personal profile] oldgroove 2015-03-11 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
[Kuzco shrugs.]

My adviser takes care of all that junk. Not really my style, got it?

[He leans back and closes his eyes so he can get comfortable without having to look at the screen.]

Besides, it's not like I ever really leave the castle for anything. At least not for any old reason.

[Building a summer home--now that's what's really important.]

So, when you look at it that way, it doesn't matter. Why do you care, anyway? You live in...that one place you just said you live in.

[He waves a hand carelessly.]
pauseforeffect: (pic#8066148)

[personal profile] pauseforeffect 2015-03-11 06:49 am (UTC)(link)
['Not his style'? Oh no no no--]

I don't live where you do sure, but I study cultures, kingdoms-- Empires, just like yours! And I know firsthand how tough it is to run a Kingdom, to have so many people depending on you. Looking to you for protection and guidance.

[Hint hint.]

And besides, you can't just let your adviser handle everything! That just makes you some kind of... [He gestures in the air a moment, as if turning over the gears in his head to come up with the right word:] ...Figurehead!
oldgroove: (You wanna run that by me again?)

[personal profile] oldgroove 2015-03-16 12:38 am (UTC)(link)
Uh, no? Hello? You may want to get your ears checked. When I say I'm the Emperor, that makes me the Emperor. Nothing's going to change that. Besides, Yzma loves it. "Keeps her young" or whatever.

[He could shudder at the thought. Kuzco's honestly unsure that she was ever young at all. His expressions souring, he shoots Milo a sidelong glance.]

You have a lot of nerve, you know, criticizing my groove. It's not like I'm telling you how to run your Washingbin or whatever.
