How bad is this going to be?
Obviously very bad, after all by hiring that guy they're changing the extreme right-wing racist formula we all know and love.
I just shuddered.
Physically shuddered, my body PHYSICALLY reacting negatively when I saw this image?
Is this real?
I live in Minnesota, should I get a gun and go put a stop to this? He's from Minnesota, right?
If they don't get Trace, Bill or Kevin to voice the bots very poorly.
Also who the fuck is that schmuck on the left.

>>62951061
The robots have new voice actors
It might be ok if they don't get cynical and snarky towards the films. The original seemed to have a sort of endearing attitude for bad movies, my worst fear is this one will miss the point and just shit on things
reminder the original robots acted super gay.
mike seemed like a toddler.
also its almost all entirely pop references.

Why are she and Wil fucking Wheaton determined to shit all over everything nerd culture has?
We get it, you're famous but don't have quite enough charisma to make it in real Hollywood. You've exploited the culture to make yourselves wealthy. Now go the fuck away.
>>62951587
She's pals with Joel.So is Jerry Seinfeld but I don't see him joining the cast anytime soon.
>>62951468
Both the Kevin and Bill are not-so-secretly bisexual. Or at least they where when they where still fuckable. I dunno how that works when you get 50'd and married.
>>62951672
Holy shit Jerry as a Mad is the best idea I've ever herd.
If they're smart and write out the whole season in advance they can film all his bits in like six hours.
Oh wait.... a million bucks per episode? Nah this is all a fucking scam and nothing will ever come of it.
In six months Joel will cite "legal issues" having stopped the whole production and promptly vanish. Then in another 5 years he'll come back to start the whole scam over again.
I find it highly suspect that the one guy who rage-quit the show is the only one interested in bringing it back.
>>62950961
look at him. he looks like your dad. won't be funny, it'll be lame.

>>62953519
>I find it highly suspect that the one guy who rage-quit the show is the only one interested in bringing it back.
Why did he quit in the first place?
>>62954742
He didn't want to make MST3K: The Movie, so he basically gave up all his rights to the show except the name 'Gizmonic Institute' to Jim Mallon and they replaced him with Mike and replaced Gizmonic Institute with Deep 13.
>>62954807
What a doofus!
>>62953519
He read "Atlas Shrugged" and thought he was John Galt or something lol
>>62950961
I was out the minute they said it was a new cast. MST3k is Joel, Mike, Kevin and Bill - 3 of which are already in Rifftrax.
>>62954844
Are you serious? The movie bombed and Comedy Central canned the show immediately afterward. Even MST3K thought they were dead then. Joel was right. The movie was cancer.
It was only by miracle that it was revived for 3 more seasons afrer that by the Sci-fi Chanel.
>>62955004
Yeah, and now look at him.
>>62953519
>Oh wait.... a million bucks per episode?
It's filming some asshole and a few puppets infront of a greenscreen. I think a million is reasonable if not a little high.
>>62955004
>The movie bombed
It didn't make much money, but then it only got released at 26 cinemas, so they couldn't have been expecting to make much.
I'm sure Jim made a bunch from DVD sales eventually though.
>>62955066
it costs so much because they aren't making the same mistake they made last time. This time they are buying the rights to movies in perpetuity including streaming and dvd release rights.
>>62955004
Even if he was "right", he still had very little faith in his show, which doesn't look great today. He quit when things got hot, how does that make anyone confident to give them their money now?
>>62955211
He quits everything. He tried to make it as a prop comic in Hollywood and quit that, too.
>>62955387
He's all flight and no fight.
>>62955200
Nah, son. This is all about Joel's retirement fund.
I was under the impression that Joel had "Creative Differences(TM)" i.e. was getting too old to write snappy pop culture jokes.
Who actually owns the rights to MST3k and is the million-bucks-an-episode related to the rights being held by a third party like Paramount?
>>62956659
>Who actually owns the rights to MST3k and is the million-bucks-an-episode related to the rights being held by a third party like Paramount?
Shout Factory bought it from Jim Mallon after he realised he didn't have the talent to bring it back (see: the awful flash videos he made, or don't because they're awful)
http://deadline.com/2015/11/mystery-science-theater-shout-factory-1201617524/
We don't have the full details, but obviously they then brokered some kind of deal where Mike gets to sell the episodes he was in through RiffTrax as a digital format, and Joel gets to play with the show's corpse for a while
>>62956856
Who is getting the Blue Ray re-release cash that's happening now?
They won't do bluray releases because licensing would have to be renegotiated and they would have to pay even more money.
It's cheaper for everyone involved if they stick to regular DVD and digital.
>>62956856
Someone said here that Mike was offered a chance to come back in a writer-only role, but due to the fact that Joel is aiming to get the series on MTV (hence Felicia's involvement), Mike declined because of fears MTV might try and force him to kill Rifftrax as part of any TV deal.
Also, Felicia's silence on all things indicates Joel at least knows Felicia is a cancer that would drive off a huge chunk of the existing fanbase. If he truly did not give a fuck, he'd have announced Felicia already and let Felicia burn shit to the ground public relation-wise in exchange for Felicia getting all of her SJW friends flooding the Kickstarter campaign with cash to fund the project five times over.
If the Mike rumor is real, I could see Mike pulling Joel aside and telling him that Felicia is a liability and Joel actually listening to keep Felicia from ruining everything.
>>62957476
Fuckhead they're obviously saving the biggest reveal for the Thanksgiving marathon.
>>62957476
That last paragraph sounds like a baseless conspiracy theory. Its more likely they're just saving some reveals for later to get a new burst of investors/donators/
>>62957476
You're right, it's DVD not Bluray but they're still being sold right now.

>watching a shitty precursor to faggots watching movies on the internet and making unfunny puns and noises
I have no idea how anyone can like this show. It's literally like going to the movies and having a bunch of asshole in front of you who won't shut the fuck up.
Why would people pay for that experience??
>>62958119
can anyone photoshop that nose to look even somewhat human like?
>>62958124
Because the real thing is humorously written and gets you through films with no real merit aside from laughing at how terrible they are.
Of course, this is a lame cash-grab by a guy who literally has never done a single thing of note in his life aside from getting lucky with the gig of MST3k host, while the majority of the team behind the show have been continuing the base concept for years with Rifftrax.

>a female making commentary on a movie
If you're still excited for this coming back, you're a literal beta or homosexual.
I cannot wait for the comedic styling of Jonah Ray to finally get the attention it deserves.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBAZFJnpcV4
>>62958222
The mad isn't a part of the commentary, generally. They're there for the fluff bits to break up the monotony of a 30 year old B movie.
Of course, this is Joel, so she's most likely going to be a fucking commentator.
can they honestly not find a cute talented girl anywhere?
why did the have to settle with Felicia Day?

Yeah, then they realised that was an impossibility, and settled for finding chicks that didn't make you want to kill yourself after 5 seconds.
Tough, but after a long number of years, we're finally at the point in entertainment where a female guest can be tolerated for 10 whole seconds without inducing mass suicides.

Shout Factory, with some money to the owners of the original movies and maybe trivial royalties to the cast/writers.
>>62957476
Felicia's fans outnumber her haters. In influence and money, if not in number of people - and I'm pretty sure there too.

They've got a dozen full-time employees now, they're definitely making more than that.

At least I can sell them without any sort of remorse now.
Thanks for selling out Joel!
>>62958637

No fucking way. Their live shows alone have made over 100k.
Either way, it can't be expensive to produce rifftrax

There was more than one control scheme for Goldeneye, there were several. Honey using beta bitch ass scrub casual faggots.

They probably played Turok with the C buttons controlling motion too. Faggots.
I'mdaring to hope for the best and opening myself up to the possibility of it turning out bad, because I don't want to live a life of dreary cynicism anytime anybody tries to do anything fun.
I'm excited. It might suck, but I'll probably watch a couple episodes at the least. I still have yet to watch a lot of the original series.
