AWESOMEEEEE.

[Nervous Ferret]

watch cheap seats

[St. Jimmy]

not a fan of sports, NerF old beam.

[Vastardikai]

Honestly, I think "See No Evil" would be epic if it had MST3K commentary throughout.

[Destor]

I love you St. Jimmy

[St. Jimmy]

I love thee as well King Destor.

[BigDaddyCool]

I said I like one mst3k on netflix, now all it does is recommend me more mst3k.

[Destor]

I like your netflix.

[Destor]

I've been watching the shit out of this since you posted it btw. Post in here again Mr. Jimmy so i cant rep you once again.

[Jeritron]

I'm St. Jimmy

[St. Jimmy]

Jeritron is I, I is Jeritron.

[St. Jimmy]

I've been watching this shit non-stop too. EPIC.

[Xero]

Forgot how awesome MST3K was.

:love:

[Nowhere Man]

MST3K was the shit. I've watched some of the samples of their new thing, Rifftrax (which is pretty much just MST3K but with new movies), and it's hillarious too, but unfortunately you've gotta pay to watch the whole thing.

This site he posted shows one Rifftrax a day, 9pmest-ish. :y:

[St. Jimmy]

So, is it just me or does no one else really completely dig the Joel episodes?

[Destor]

I'm not too big on Joel, but Joel is better than no MST3K.

[Alan The Rapist]

Hodgson and most of the guys from the first half of the series are in a group called Cinematic Titanic. They rip on movies live for theater audiences.

[Jeritron]

I think it's basically my pastime. Me and a few of my friends do it regularly in his basement without even thinking about it. Thanks to Fearnet we've had so much more to work with too.

I wish mike was being brought on for the reboot :(

The new Satellite of Love prisoner character will be Jonah Heston, played by Jonah Ray.

Felicia Day will portray the daughter of Dr. Clayton Forrester, the show's original Mad, and her name will be Kinga Forrester.

Patton Oswalt will play 'TV's Son of TV's Frank', which I think explains itself.

The Bots, Crow T. Robot and Tom Servo, will be voiced by Hampton Yount and Baron Vaughn, respectively.

You can credit over 48,000 fans of the show for raising over $6.3 Million on Kickstarter for helping this 11th Season of MST3K to get made.

And various cameos from some MST3K Alumni are expected to happen.

=B

[Swiss Ultimate]

Yeah, been looking forward to it.

[Destor]

Im not ok with recasting of servo amd crow :'(

[Swiss Ultimate]

Well, yeah...but whatcha gonna do?

[Destor]

Well id say skip watching it but that would be a painful lie

[Seanny One Ball]

Patton Oswalt's involvement is just so freakin cool!
I cannot wait.

I watched Joel's last episode last night "Mitchell" and I have to say I love that Joel and Mike both got to do a Joe Don Baker riff. So many fat drunk jokes...
I'll be all over this reincarnation. MST3K was never on UK tv to my knowledge so at least now with the internet I won't miss much!

[Seanny One Ball]

So, is it just me or does no one else really completely dig the Joel episodes?

I love Joel. He has a very dry delivery and he is adorably awkward in the skits. I think Mike is a much more natural fit for the role but it cuts me up a bit reading how sour things turned before Joel ultimately moved on.
I think if you watch Mitchell and Final Justice consecutively you can really see the differences in their style given they are essentially riffing the same target. I hear Joe Don Baker was pissed about it too. Joel was staying in the same hotel as him once and hid because JDB had promised to kick his ass if he caught up with him.

I love the episodes where they riff movies with random famous people in them or their lesser known relatives. Joe Estevez and Sean Connery's brother spring to mind.
Anything with Robert Z'Dar is also a must watch.

Hobgoblins is the best bad film they riffed. The lengthy stick fighting scene had me in tears laughing.
Manos The Hands Of Fate and Monster A Go-Go are not as well riffed but are easily the most headscratchingly awful films they viewed.
I am also partial to the Chinese Planet Of The Apes rip off they did.

[Seanny One Ball]

I hear The Magic Sword and Diabolik are actually decent films so I have them to watch sometime too.

[Destor]

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians!

Also nearly any of the shorts they riffed. The 50s educational shorts rank highest for me.

[Seanny One Ball]

I don't know if I've seen any of those yet. Those are for episodes with shorter cuts of films though right?
Can you recommend any episodes with shorts?

[Seanny One Ball]

I have to confess that I only heard about this show from Saved By The Bell as a very young kid. I have a vivid memory of it being Screech's favourite show and I was heartbroken as a boy having no access to it.

I have tried without fail to get my friends into it but not one of them was interested.

Imagine dying without even seeing Hobgoblins once.
I am going to pick up the purposefully shit sequel they made. I heard the cast is back and they riff it themselves as a bonus feature.
I desperately hope that's true.

[Seanny One Ball]

Just saw that Hobgoblins 2 is a remake of the original with a new cast and the original line up actually do critique it in the bonus features.

Yes!

Favorite shorts

[#1-norm-fan]

Should send the second one to Curtis. Help the kid out.

[Bobholly138]

Should send the second one to Curtis. Help the kid out.

The short is titled "What to do on a date",not "How to get a date".

Should we start a pool on who will get laid first Curtis or Merc? My money is on Curtis.

love this short

[Destor]

20 eps going up on netflix to prep for s11

[Swiss Ultimate]

When?

[Destor]

Now

[RP]

Can someone tell me what MST3k stand for. I'm sorry i'm just dumb.

[Destor]

Mystery Science Theater 3000

[Swiss Ultimate]

Now

*Orgasm*

[Destor]

Cant sleep. Watching Manos. Theyve got it listed as season 1 should collectiom 1...

[Destor]

I watched the first ep. I APPROVE

[Seanny One Ball]

How was Patton? What was the film?

[Destor]

The movie is Reptilicus.

Limited bits. Oswald and Day were very minor in the debut. More focus on introducting the new tenants of the SOL

[Seanny One Ball]

How's the new guy? I know all the robot voices are new too. Any good?

[Destor]

The new host i think will easily be the best at the scetches. Riffing is solid, but youve got joel and oswald writing so i dont want to give all the credit...

The main cast has good chemistry so i feel pretty good about it. Gypsys new voice was the most jarring...

[Seanny One Ball]

I was worried about Gypsy.

[Swiss Ultimate]

I watched the first ep. I APPROVE

I liked some of it, but it felt way too much like a fan-project to me and Wil Wheaton blocked me on Twitter.

Some of the riffing was decent from what I saw (haven't finished), but I never found myself laughing hard or at all.

I firmly believe that every show will get better with practice, so I'm hoping that after I get through the first show the rest improve.

That being said, I was biased against Mike at first too. Now I can go back and enjoy his stuff too.

[Destor]

Yeah i dont think its fair to be overly critical of a pilot. Ill make a critique spmewhere between ep 4 and 7 most like. But i feel really positive about it. I think its going to be a good run.

[Seanny One Ball]

I'd like to get a hold of the original first season or even just an episode or two but I think it's long gone. They refer to the second season as the first usually. Even Wiki has the 1988 series down as "Series 0"...

The earliest one I can find is The Crawling Eye.

[Swiss Ultimate]

I owned the Crawling Eye...long periods with no jokes at all.

[Seanny One Ball]

Yeah it's one of the more awkward ones.
I'm watching Attack Of The Eye Creatures. Apparently Joel invents Rickrolling in this one.
The film looks fantastically bad.

[Seanny One Ball]

We should pick a five minute clip and riff it ourselves.

[Seanny One Ball]

Ahahahaha two perverts and a CCTV camera this film is amazing!

[Seanny One Ball]

You can see some of the original 1988 series here. Man it looks totally different.

[Tom Guycott]

HUZZAH!

[Swiss Ultimate]

I finally got to episode 4 of the new season after finishing the 20 from Mike and Joel.

Haven't laughed at all during Avalanche. Celebrity cameos make me cringe too.

[Destor]

Cameos were bad, yes

[Swiss Ultimate]

Avalanche was a bit hard on riffing to be honest. Outside some really annoying parts, it was just average and not really awful.

It might have been a bad idea to watch the original episodes first. Few things compare to Pod People and Zombie Nightmare.

[Swiss Ultimate]

I'm struggling, guys.

[Destor]

I liked it more than most of the joel stuff

[Swiss Ultimate]

I can understand that, the new guy is very likable and different from both Mike and Joel. However, the original Crow, Tom Servo, TV's Frank, and Dr. Forrester all had such amazing chemistry which this show lacks.

I hate the chick and I'm really not into Son of TV's Frank. Riffing for me has been either really good (Big Foot episode) or just sad (Hercules).

I'm going to keep trying, but I'm noticing things I don't like way too much. The theme song is awful.

[Destor]

Love the theme and i LOVE felicia day. Patton Oswald i could take or leave. New crow im good with but new servo im not behind at all. He sounds too similar to Jonah and far too often im left wondering who was delivering the line

[Destor]

It also hurts the new servo because on a national level theres only been one servo

[#1-norm-fan]

When I was a kid my favorite episode was "Overdrawn at the Memory Bank" with Raul Julia. I recorded it and would watch it repeatedly.

Same issue with Tom Servo. Also like new Crow. He's not too much like older versions.

That wassaagoodone my frent

[Seanny One Ball]

Overdrawn at the Memory Bank is great! Raul Julia, Casablanca and computer chips…what more could anyone want from MST3K?

[Swiss Ultimate]

Wizards of the Lost Kingdom films really turned me around, thankfully. I laughed throughout both.

Yay.

[Destor]

I really loved the wizard movies...what glorious turds

[Swiss Ultimate]

In the second one, wasn't that the older brother from the Wonder Years?

[Destor]

I dont remember and older older brother...

[Swiss Ultimate]

Turns out he WAS on the show in a bit part.
