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
So yeah, we had to change things up because our good friend copyright came to play...
Time for some more movies that go against their source mythology! Hercules arrives in the kingdom of Iolcus and promptly falls in love with the king’s daughter Iole. Herc must solve the mystery of who killed Iole’s uncle, while trying to teach Iole’s brother Iphitus how to act like a man. The demigod endures a couple of ordeals in order to have more stuff happen in the movie.
Host Segment Highlights
Casual day is a bomb, as is the portable desk. What is about constellations? And why am I too young to get references like Hamilton, Joe Frank, and Reynolds?
Whether a seasoned vet or new meat, we invite you all to come on down! Movie starts at 8pm EST/5pm PST, room opens at the :30 beforehand.
The password for the room is karma. Seven parts, and part one is here.
Fingers crossed on the rest of June...
