Hardly "pop culture," more like "geek culture". Mystery Science Theater 3k, which aired on Sci-Fi channel for many years.

just what is "Pop-Culture" anyway? Does it have anything to do with sasparilla?

70 - During the spider attack on Frodo, say "Man, he should have used Deep Woods Off..."

And the piece de resistance...

71 - Get two friends. Two of you should dress as robots, the third in a blue jumpsuit. Sit in the very front row of the theater, and say all the lines in this thread VERY LOUD at the appropriate moments. And every once in awhile say, "Hey Dr. Forrester, when's the commerical break?!?"

72. Warn your friends that you will talk during the previews, but fail to warn them that you have issues with large spiders jumping out of dark places.

True story, went to the movie with a crowd of friends. Chick friend sat next to me and totally freaked out at the Shelob scene. I had no idea, no warning that she was going to scream.... Goddamn adrenaline kicked in like cold coffee with ephedrine for creamer and I was high for the next twenty minutes.

I think her boyfriend/fiancée/husband (not actually sure of the status of that) was trying to calm her down, but she screamed again when Frodo got the hypo-loving.

On the plus side, for the rest of the movie I got full claim to the armrest on the other side, as some stranger decided he didn't want to sit on our row after all.
