!!The Segments:
[[AC:Prologue]]
* Joel, Crow, and Gypsy are playing Kaboom, with Tom Servo's head as the balloon.

* For the Invention Exchange, Joel takes the concept of Whiffle Ball and expands it into a fine line of Whiffle products. Dr. Forrester tries to make Frank's head explode with his Scanner Planner, but it backfires and Frank gets angry.

* Seeing as only Roger Corman could make the 1870s seem so dismal, Joel and the 'Bots discuss how [[TheSeventies the 1970s]] were even worse. Joel then reads some deep-fried letters, and Dr. Forrester finally succeeds in blowing Frank's head up.
!! The ''[[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]]'' presentation contains examples of:
* AnachronismStew: Unclear and probably unintentional in the movie itself, but [[RunningGag routinely lampshaded]] by the crew:
-->'''Servo:''' ''(looking at an old farming device)'' What ''is'' that thing?\\
'''Crow:''' Whatever it was, it wasn't invented yet.
* BarSlide: Joel is disappointed that the big BarBrawl scene doesn't include one. Servo "explains" that [[RunningGag it hadn't been invented yet]].
* BigShutUp: Towards the Mayor when telling yet another war story that made him look better than he really was.
* BrickJoke: Dr. Forrester manages to [[TheyKilledKennyAgain blow up Frank's head]] offscreen in the very last segment. He's pleasantly surprised.
* CallBack: One is made to ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S03E17VikingWomenAndTheSeaSerpent Viking Women And The Sea Serpent]]'', which Jonathan Haze (Jake) also appeared in. Ironically, Haze played ''Ottar'' in that film, while it was Senya who spoke the line in the film.
-->'''Crow:''' ''(as Jonathan Haze's character)'' I'm a Grimald warrior!
* CallForward: The sound effect Dr. Forrester uses to "Film/{{scan|ners}}" Frank is the same one eventually used when [[SufficientlyAdvancedAlien Observer]] invokes his [[RealityWarper reality-warping powers]].
* CasualKink: Servo mentions offhand that he really appreciates Corman for the wrestling match between Rose and Erika.
* ComplexityAddiction: Tom using the Pony Express to tell Joel, who's standing right next to him, what he wants for lunch. Which he tells Joel verbally while they're waiting. Then Joel can't read his handwriting and sends a message back asking him to write more clearly.
* DeepFriedWhatever: The 'bots deep-fry the fan mail.

--> '''TV's Frank:''' You were scanning me, weren't you? You were trying to make my head explode, [[Literature/TheBoysFromBrazil you freaked-out maniac]]! ''[smashes Forrester's head with a large lollipop.]''
* EverybodysDeadDave: The crew decides by the end of the film that everyone in town has been murdered in the crossfire between the two leads.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: In Segment Two, Servo asks Joel why doesn't he just not die, as if death is a decision people make. Considering what [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S05E12Mitchell the next episode]] is...[[note]]Yes, granted, Joel doesn't ''die'', but it ''is'' his last episode...[[/note]]
* TheFunInFuneral: During [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsWw3B0_mdU one of the host segments]], Joel and the bots get to experience death... or at least what it feels like to be in a casket. After a moment contemplating what death would be like, they start describing how they want their funerals to be like -- Crow's and Tom's are really fun. Servo finally decides he wants a circus, and Crow "modestly" demands to be mummified and buried next to [[UsefulNotes/JosefStalin Stalin]]. [[SureLetsGoWithThat Joel humors the latter.]]
* ItRunsOnNonsensoleum: In Segment Four, Tom bends the laws of time and space through his knowledge of higher mathematics ("It's physics, Joel.") allowing him to [[OffscreenTeleportation zip off one side of the screen and immediately appear on the other]] and eventually to ''[[RewindGag restart the segment]]'' by concentrating really hard, much to Joel's slowly dawning confusion.
