What is Movie Sign?
Every week, 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. We use episodes available on Google Video so that we can all watch simultaneously.
What's MST3K?
It's a comedy show about a man and his robots, stranded in space and forced to watch some of the worst movies ever made as part of a mad scientist's bid for world domination. To keep their (and our) sanity, Joel Robinson or Mike Nelson, along with 'bots Tom Servo and Crow, talk back to the films and riff on them. You can read up on the show over at the SoL.
Next Episode
In order to live, we must LEAVE THE BRONX in our next post-apocalyptic romp, Escape 2000. Also known as "Escape from the Bronx" and "Fuga dal Bronx". A vicious corporation tries to kill and starve the last remaining habitants of the Bronx in order to build their own high-rise developments. Standing in their way is Trash, a long-haired, hot-tempered warrior and some gangs determined not to lose their turf. Expect fights in the rubble and the sewers - you know, where gang fights are always held.
Host Segment Highlights
Crow holds a charity auction before torching an ant and sending the SoL up in flames. More fire is had when Mike helps Crow try bio-feedback, but when all is clear, it's men's night on the satellite. Later, Dr. F tries to boost ratings with a terrifyingly adorable (?) child, but we all know what'll do that: robots and helicopters.
