MST3K 524: 12 to the Moon

A sort of intuitive feeling made me decide a while ago to save "12 to the Moon" ("Doughnuts?") for towards the very end of this long project of rewatching and commenting on the episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000. The short included with the episode might have added a good bit to that feeling, of course, but I was at least willing to be hopeful about the movie itself.
