What has Joel been doing with himself? by fiester	Jul 26th, 2008 02:27:46 PM
Does he still do comedy?
Take That Harry - Best AICN article ever by indiebum	Jul 26th, 2008 02:29:55 PM
Read this article Harry Knowles, and you will understand why you have been so wrong about MST3k for all this time. Thanks Mr. Beaks for an awesome interview and thank you to my formative gods of REAL comedy.
Pennsy...is there wireless at the con now? by bacci40	Jul 26th, 2008 02:43:19 PM
or are these people using wifi or bluetooth...if the con is now wireless, those fuckers need to create a web streaming show for all the panels...its about time...oh, and ty for the link
Great Interview by smilliga	Jul 26th, 2008 02:50:47 PM
Beaks, glad to know I wasn't the only one getting up early on saturday morning to tape episodes. These guys don't do enough interviews. The 20th anniversary edition will be worth it just for the extras...Thanks for posting this.
not impressed by bacci40	Jul 26th, 2008 02:52:50 PM
no, not with mst3k, but with what was shown in the heroes panel...it is a lazy trick to return to the alternate uni timeline story...something that deep space nine used to do when they ran out of story ideas...and this is only heroes 3rd season...very nice of milo to give that blind girl a hug...very stupid to ask the same fucking questions to the panel that they get at every con...shit, how about asking hayden what its like to have become legal during the show and now having paparazzi trying to get upskirt photos every time she takes a walk...and fuck me, if they dont kill off both sylar and mohinder this season
I had heard offhand about wireless there, but... by Pennsy	Jul 26th, 2008 02:58:53 PM
Don't quote me.
FIlm Crew rocks, too. by ZeroCorpse	Jul 26th, 2008 03:16:46 PM
I actually prefer their Film Crew shows in certain ways. While I miss the outline of the bots, I think the guys have more freedom for jokes when they're not pretending to be stuck in a satellite.
Does Harry by Cujo_Fugate	Jul 26th, 2008 03:16:53 PM
not like MST3k?
Joel does Cinematic Titanic by INWOsuxRED	Jul 26th, 2008 03:36:55 PM
similar to MST3K. Mike does Rifftrax which you might see in a google ad for any talkback mentioning MST3K or Mike Nelson.
BRACK! by ironic_name	Jul 26th, 2008 04:30:27 PM
I FELL ON MY KEYS!
Time of the Apes!!!! Where??? by Cymbol	Jul 26th, 2008 05:03:46 PM
That is one of the funniest episodes ever (the Japanese time travel movie, right?)- problem is I can not find it on any of the DVD collections. Some one please help - is it out there. I would LOVE to own this one!
Turkey Day Marathon by Sir Loin	Jul 26th, 2008 06:43:59 PM
Man, that was awesome. 24 hours straight of MST3K, a chance to tape the episodes you'd missed. Plus the hot mom in Edina, who hosted the event, with her house filled up with people in costume and explaining what a SAMPO was. P.S. MITCHELL!
Did I miss something??? by Dr. Butthole	Jul 26th, 2008 06:53:12 PM
Are Joel and Jim over their differences? Just in time for the 20th anniversary cash cow, I suppose. I'm not complaining, any and all mst3k coming out is good news for me. I'm just interested because Joel and Jim are talking again. Very surprising. "Watch out for snakes!"
Fuck George Clooney and fuck HEROES by thegreatwhatzit	Jul 26th, 2008 08:38:17 PM
MST3K is a classic with longevity. Thank so much for the interview(s). The show was therapeutic for me. My beloved dad had passed away and I couldn't shake the depression for weeks. I switched-on MST during a Saturday morning--seated at the keyboard, writing a profile, I needed a diversion to cancel out the blues. Joel & Co. introduced SANTA CLAUS CONQUERS THE MARTIANS and I was along for the ride. Absolutely hysterical. My father would have loved it.
So why did Joel leave? by JimBobCooter	Jul 26th, 2008 09:14:13 PM
Problems with Mike, as Mr. Beaks says? Or problems with Jim, as Dr. Butthole says?
My Tape Collection Survives and... by smallerdemon	Jul 27th, 2008 12:47:43 AM
is slowly being converted to DVD every day. Gmail the smallerdemon Mr. Beaks and we can chat about how to get you some of those hard to get ones to you ("It Conquered The Earth" anyone?).
Oh Torgo, Where art thou? by Manos	Jul 27th, 2008 05:40:17 AM
I miss these guys.
They should join forces by GrubStreeter	Jul 27th, 2008 08:46:36 AM
There are too many separate movie-riffing projects from the MST vets. Why don't they all join up? There's obviously still an audience for it, but by releasing Cinematic Titanic, Riff Trax, Film Crew, et al., they're fighting for the same audience. Join forces again!
Had a boner. by Galva	Jul 27th, 2008 08:59:00 AM
The entire time I read that. Oh, great interview by the way. The Crow voice at the end... I heard in my head clearly before Mr. Breaks explicitly said he did it in the Crow voice. Awesome.
Thanks for the interview Beaks by INWOsuxRED	Jul 27th, 2008 10:32:57 AM
we could use a bit more of you in the Coaxial section, me thinks. Beats reading SNL press releases.
What Joel's been doing... by Rowsdower.ZabRowsdower	Jul 27th, 2008 11:36:59 AM
In addition to Cinematic Titanic, he's been one of the lead writers on Jimmy Kimmel's show. They've even given him some camera time on occasion.
Fuck the heroes panel report.. by OBSD	Jul 27th, 2008 12:21:09 PM
Anybody got a report on the MST panel? It really is the only one that matters from Comicon.
plus Joel was the disco guy on Freaks and Geeks by INWOsuxRED	Jul 27th, 2008 12:38:51 PM
he kicked so much ass in that role
Right on, OBSD by thegreatwhatzit	Jul 27th, 2008 09:12:57 PM
And by the way...THIS ISLAND EARTH is boring. Furthermore, the script is pretty lousy. And I'm a devout researcher of classic '50s movies (Alastair Sim should have been Oscar-nominated for his role as "Scrooge", A CHRISTMAS CAROL, 1951. That is all).
