Anyone like Mystery Science Theater 3000 or Rifftrax? (1 Viewer)

[MD Mike]

I have three guilty pleasures in life.

Poker chips

Video games

And MST3K/Rifftrax

Anyone else a fan out there?

"Rock climbing! Aaaahhh!"

"Fifi's getting sharp again!"

"Movie sign! Movie sign!"

Manos, Hands of Fate.

Cinematic Titanic doing Rattlers at the Smithsonian in 2011...

Funny you should ask. No, not at all.

I've been collecting the MST3K box sets from Shout Factory and I'm up to 12 of them.

Also have maybe two dozen Rifftrax VODs. I clean chips and watch this stuff

Uh, I used to watch Mystery Science Theater 3000 when I was in college, back in the mid-nineties. Surely it's not still on?

Big McLarge Huge!

Not long ago the creators ran a successful Kickstarter campaign and a 13-ish episode series was funded. The new episodes will be on Netflix.

It ran from 1990 to 1999 and Rifftrax picked up from 2005 to current. Rifftrax has Mike Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy riffing modern movies (www.rifftrax.com).

Also a new MST3K is coming to Netflix soon with a new cast. That's right, they are bringing it back!

And to quote from one of my favorite MST3Ks, Overdrawn at the Memory Bank:

"Need to tinkle Fingle?"

Love MST3K...I will definitely be checking out the new one. Cautiously optimistic that Jonah Ray will do well, but no one will fill Joel's shoes.

ETA: For you Mike fans out there...he was alright at times but Joel was way more consistently funny and funnier overall.

Love all the shows! Was a card-carrying member of the fan club back in the day.
