'''''The Land That Time Forgot''''' is the 7th episode of the [[Season 11|eleventh season]] of ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]] ''and the 204th episode overall. It premiered on [[April 14]], [[2017]].

==The Movie==
{{Main|The Land That Time Forgot (film)}}

A WWI-era German U-boat carrying British and American prisoners runs aground on a lost world of nature, cavemen, and dinosaurs hidden somewhere in the South Atlantic.

=== Edits ===
* The scene where the prisoners fight the Germans and take over the submarine is edited down for time. This is mentioned by [[Ardy]] before the experiment as the result of "movie spillage".

==The Episode==
===Host Segments===
'''Prologue:''' Jonah and the Bots celebrate Gypsy's birthday and Jonah gets the idea to share it with everybody. Gypsy would rather wait until next week so that she doesn't have to share and so Tom gets to celebrate instead.

'''Segment One: '''The [[Invention exchange|Invention Exchange]]. Jonah presents his new magazine, ''M. Night Shyamalan Living'' (where every article ends with a twist). Kinga counters with the Elder Pump, which she really has no idea on what to use it for. Jonah reveals that she's been basing all her inventions on various riffs made during past experiments.

'''Segment Two: '''Jonah and the Bots dress up as the Germans form the movie and pretend that the SOL is a submarine, but they are attacked by a surprisingly-eloquent space squid who mistakes it for the real thing.

'''Segment Three:''' Kinga and Max announce their new fast-food franchise, the Moon 14 Mesozoic Ranch Dinosaur BBQ. The Mads have been hard at work cloning dinosaurs and slaughtering them for human consumption (humans consumed notwithstanding). As the Mads attempt to "rock out" to the "[[Moon 14 Mesozoic Ranch Dinosaur BBQ Theme]]", the marketing campaign hits a small snag when Max forgets to lock the Allosaurus pen.

'''Segment Four:''' Crow wonders if he will ever turn into a human like the caveman in the movie wants to. Jonah assures him that it won't happen and Crow thanks him by saying that he'll be there for support if Jonah ever turns into a robot.

'''Segment Five:''' Jonah announces his plan to escape the SOL by throwing a message-in-a-bottle, hoping someone reads it and rescues them. Max ends up getting it.

'''Stinger: '''A caveman is carried off in the beak of a pterodactyl.

*''"I'm Doug McClure. You may remember me from such movies as..." ''
:A reference to [[The Simpsons]] character Troy McClure, a has-been B-movie actor famously voiced by the late Phil Hartman who would always introduce himself by citing his past work. His name was inspired by actors Troy Donahue and [[Doug McClure]]. The character was retired from the show in 1998 after Hartman's untimely death.
*''"Burt Reynolds is Sean Connery as Mark Ruffalo in ''Foxcatcher''!"''
:A running joke seen early in the episode is "Person as Person playing Person", which is referring to a character in the film who resembled three different actors or media personalities.
* "''I don't care what they say, I love my Nintendo Virtual Boy." ''
:The Virtual Boy is a portable video game console, Nintendo's first foray into 3D video games.  It is remembered for its awkward design and monochrome red graphics. Released in 1995, production was discontinued after one year.
*''"Oh no, it's going under The Wall! The Night's Watch will never see this coming!"''

Scenes like this occur in the movies ''Falling Down'' and ''Big Daddy'', but the line "I can see the eggs" doesn't seem to be a specific reference.
*''"Now a regular menu item at the world famous Dino Hotel." "The pride of Lakewood, Colorado!" ''
:The Mesozoic Ranch sketch references the real-world location Best Western Denver Southwest, also known as the Dino Hotel, which is located in Lakewood, Colorado. The hotel underwent a multi-million dollar renovation in 2012 and now features a dinosaur and natural history museum theme with life-sized fossils. The hotel's owners, Greg Tally and Meredith Tally, are credited as Executive Producers for Season 11, while the hotel itself is credited as "Kickstarter Presenting Backer" as promotional consideration for its contribution to the series.

* ''"Worldstar! Worldstar!"''
