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.

aureinsof: ([e] you're not alone)

Concessions!

[Emil was looking at the interesting snacks and can't help overhearing the guy complaining. Well, maybe there's some merit in what he's saying.]

I prefer homemade things to produced food, too. But wouldn't they have to charge a lot if we're going to use the best ingredients? It might mean people wouldn't buy them.

[It'd be a sad waste of food right there.]
bozu: (And jalapeños onto skewers)

i hope you're ready for a lot of food talk 8)a

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-10 10:11 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, no no! You're confusing perfect ingredients with expensive ones.
If you know where to look, it's quite easy to get your hands on the things you need!

[To say Teruteru's expression was a look of confidence would be an understatement right about now.
After beginning to answer, though, he turns to look at who he's talking to, with a smile!]


I'm a bit of an expert in these sort of things, you see.
I've done everything from harvest my own vegetables to catch my own fish!
And with the right connections, you can even procure things like top quality wine at a fraction of the price!

... Of course, with this theater's emphasis on machinery and computers, I wouldn't be surprised if they had no interest in food to begin with. A shame, really.
aureinsof: ([e] be courageous)

/o/ It's one of Emil's favourite topics

[personal profile] aureinsof 2015-03-10 10:21 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiles, listening. He thought at first this guy was a little irritating but he sees now he's just passionate about food. That Emil can understand.]

You're right. Being able to do your own quality control with growing things is really the best thing and it's not expensive. Also... the presentation here is really lacking.

[He can't help it. Now that they're talking about it, he really notices it.]

I don't expect things to look perfect but... you eat with your eyes first.
bozu: (Soak 8 wooden skewers)

Then he's made a great choice! \o\

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-10 10:31 am (UTC)(link)
[And that right there - that thing Emil just said - makes his eyes light up!
Emil is awarded +10 friendship points

But boy, if he thought Teruteru was passionate before, he might wanna brace himself for the rest of this conversation.]


Yes, yes - that's exactly true!
Presentation is important to help the customer enjoy their meal, after all... if the food doesn't look as delicious as it should, the taste will suffer as well!

The shimmer of a perfectly sliced strawberry, the lush green of a parsley garnish, the delicate pink of a steak that is just slightly rare...
These sort of things are what make your patrons grateful for all of the chef's effort, even before they taste the dish!
aureinsof: ([e] so just hang on)

[personal profile] aureinsof 2015-03-10 10:39 am (UTC)(link)
[He really is a passionate guy, wow. But then Emil figures he must be some sort of professional chef despite his age. It's actually pretty impressive.]

It would be hard with some of the food here but you could arrange it into playful shapes or complementary colours. It would be a fun challenge to make traditional movie treats and show how delicious they can be, huh?

But I doubt I'm anywhere near your skill. You sound like a true professional.
bozu: (1 1/2 pounds cubed sirloin)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-10 10:47 am (UTC)(link)
Mmmhmhm! Saying I am a true professional doesn't do my skill justice, in fact.

[Welcome back to "this guy sure is irritating"-land.]

I am the Super High School Level Chef, Teruteru Hanamura! The most prolific chef you could ever meet!
My talents and abilities are sought after by kitchens and establishments all over the world!

... Er, my own world, anyway. But I'm sure it could cross universal boundaries, if I had the chance to show other worlds my skill.

Of course... despite this, I'm always excited to meet someone else interested in the culinary arts, no matter their skill level! If you'd ever like to share a kitchen with me, all you need to do is ask!
aureinsof: ([e] find the hope that's deep inside)

[personal profile] aureinsof 2015-03-10 10:57 am (UTC)(link)
[Whelp. There's confidence and then there's arrogance. He's pretty sure this has to be the latter. He still smiles because he doesn't want to insult him but really? And who calls theirself a Super High School Level whatever? That makes no sense.]

W-Well, I'm self-taught and I don't think I could share a kitchen with you...

[For. Many reasons he thinks but he'll go with the self-taught one.]
bozu: (For 10 minutes)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-10 11:04 am (UTC)(link)
That's quite alright, really it is. Any self taught cook has the potential to outshine a classically trained one!
Other than myself, but when you've gone through what I have... er; what I mean is!

[Clears his throat -]

Even if you believe your skills to be worse than they are, I wouldn't mind cooking with you in the kitchen. There may be techniques you know that I've yet to learn!
And besides - there's no need to sell yourself short just because you're speaking to someone with a higher level of skill!

[Arrogant? Sure. But that doesn't mean he's rude to those who share his passions!]
aureinsof: ([e] there's nothing that we can't do)

[personal profile] aureinsof 2015-03-10 11:22 am (UTC)(link)
[It's definitely a redeeming point. He's still not sure he could take the arrogance in large doses but it really would be nice to learn more.]

Well, I'm good at presentation. I like doing new tricks with preparing food to look like different things. It always seems to make Marta happy. But I would like to learn more sometime when you're free. [And here he's worried about manners when he forgot his.] Oh and I'm Emil. I'm not a Super Level anything but it's nice to meet you.
bozu: (And jalapeños onto skewers)

sorry about disappearing, was messing with coding!

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-10 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahh, what a handsome name! And it's a pleasure to meet you as well, of course. It's not often I meet someone who shares my passion with food, you know what I mean?

It's refreshing, to say the least!

[And then he pauses, just for a moment, to consider something -]

... You know, we've been getting rather friendly in the middle of the theater's lobby.
Would you like to join me somewhere else, or perhaps watch one of these movies together?
It may have to go snackless, but... I could always make up for that later with a well prepared meal, of course.
aureinsof: ([e] until the end of time)

[personal profile] aureinsof 2015-03-11 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiles brightly. The guy might be a little arrogant but he's good under it all. And Emil thinks he just made a friend!]

Sure. I'd love that! Getting to sample your food would be amazing. What movie did you want to see?
bozu: (a very talented chef he is)

[personal profile] bozu 2015-03-11 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
[And what a good friend he's made! Maybe!]

Well, to tell the truth... I hadn't actually decided on a movie yet. They all seem intriguing in their own right, but at the same time... Just a tad out of my range of interests.

How about you decide? I trust you with our movie experience!
