What is the Watercooler?
It's a haven in the middle of a harsh, 9-to-5 world. A place where you can gather with your fellow human beings and bond over a paper cup full of cool refreshment.

We all love to make fun of the Twilight movie, its just fun. Someone on Youtube did just that...with Mystery Science Theater 3000.
I love the show House, but that same person did the same thing they did with Twilight with House. Pretty funny.
What is Movie Sign?
Every Sunday night, we nestle down in Chat and watch an episode of the cult TV show Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K for short) while spamming up the Chat box. Don't worry - we use episodes available on streaming sites so that we can all watch simultaneously.
What's MST3K?
A comedy show that ran from 1988-1999, it's like watching a movie with running commentary. Joel Robinson or Mike Nelson, along with 'bots Tom Servo and Crow, are forced to watch terrible films as part of a mad scientist's bid for world domination. To keep their (and our) sanity, they talk back to the movies and riff on them. A more detailed explanation can be found up at the SoL.
Next Episode
It's a time of swords and dragons with The Magic Sword. Young would-be knight Geroge is sad because his adoptive mom is overprotected, not to mention he can't get any, which is unfortunate since he loves the Princess Helene. When Helene is captured by an evil wizard and destined to become dragon-snack, George decides to be a man and heads out on an adventure!
Host Segment Highlights
Trying to find his place in the world, Joel takes up caricature drawing before ditching that and instead selling dog food. Later, the crew does a paegent based on life in the Middle Ages, but Servo ruins it with the cold, bitter truth. And when Crow admits his love for Estelle Winwood, Tom swoops in and ruins it yet again. At least they team up in the end and spoil Joel's letter-reading by doing a "getting crap past the radar" rundown.
Come join us! We don't bite, promise. Movie starts at 8pm EST/5pm PST, room opens at the :30 beforehand.
The password for the room is: estelle. Get a head start on loading and find the video segments here.
