Felicia Day
>>63017362
For the love of god, don't tell me Felicia Day is the next Mad.
I think Jonah Ray is actually a decent comedian, but Felicia Day... no thank you.
JUST FUCK MY BELOVED CULT SERIES UP
>>63020949
Where have you been? It's headline news all over
>>63021168
Alright, I just went and watched the update video. Her acting is terrible, as always. Guess I'm just glad I haven't thrown any money at this yet.
>>63021168
How do we stop this?
>>63021168

As someone who doesn't know anything about the hatred surrounding Felicia Day, can someone explain to me why an MST3K reboot with her in it would be bad? Genuinely curious.
>>63021251
Why contain it?
>>63021325
she's "i like things girls aren't supposed to" incarnate. That's her only trait. Everything she touches is vastly fucked in quality
>>63021325
Felicia Day is just like us.
And 4chsn users hate no one more than ourselves.
>>63021333
>mfw
>>63021325
No one has any explanations. Pearl was irritating, and had an awkward and unfunny presence, in just about every episode. So by those standards, Day should fit into the spot well.
>>63017362
>What went wrong?
The least talented person from the original show is the only person coming back and is replacing the original talent with a bunch of nobodies and that dumb redhead Felicia Day.
I honestly don't care if Felicia Day is the mad scientist, or who the human is; new human guy might be alright. But you just KNOW they're going to modernize it with shit like jokes about Justin Bieber and other pop culture shit.
My biggest fear is the voices for the robots, who sound almost NOTHING like the originals. Crow is okay at best, but what the fuck were they thinking with Tom fucking Servo? He sounds like shit.
>>63021352
>And 4chsn users hate no one more than ourselves.
But what do you think of the new Crow and Servo?
>>63017770
Do Joel and Mike actually dislike each other or is that us blowing things out of proportion?

>>63021563
They've only been onstage together once since MST3k ended.
They each talk publicly about perfunctory best wishes towards each other's shows
They each formed their own clique of former MST3k cast members, the only cast member in both cliques is Mary Jo

Dat stupid hipster
>>63021641
I remember how excited I was when I first heard of Rifftrax a few years ago, like EVERYONE should be informed of its existence. It makes all this reboot kickstarter shit seem utterly pointless because Rifftrax IS MST3k, alive and well as if it's never left usAm I the only one who gets uncomfortable when Bill and Kevin are referred to by name because I still picture them as robots?
>>63021641
Rifftrax is fine, but it really is amazing how much the silhouettes brought to MST3k. It was very comfy.
>>63017362
Joel is trying too hard to appeal to a modern audience and somehow thought people wanted "lol so quirky and awkward nerd XD" crap in it.
>>63021325
She's one of those people that shouldn't be famous but is, which irritates people.
She started her "career" doing a web show called The Guild, it was about wacky people who play World of Warcraft.
Then she became known as "that one female personality in video games" despite contributing nothing to video games.
Then she started voice acting in video games, she's terrible at it but they let it happen for recognition.
Recently since she has become less relevant than ever she has branched out into being "that one female personality in nerd culture".
She's kind of had a similar progression into mainstream appeal as Olivia Munn, only Munn ended up acting in real movies because she's actually attractive.
>>63021378
Pearl was decent. She was nowhere near as good as Dr. Forrester but she had some moments. Plus Mary Jo Pehl was a good writer. Felicia Day is unbearably unfunny and her writing is awful.
>>63021725
This. The audience part of MST3K made it that much better.
>>63021901
Hey, Felicia's nerd royalty. Based Joel said so himself.
>>63021421
>My biggest fear is the voices for the robots, who sound almost NOTHING like the originals.
To be fair, Bill Corbett sounded nothing like Trace Beaulieu, and Kevin Murphy sounded nothing like Josh Weinstein.
>>63021325
She's someone who kind of got famous by accident without any substantial talent, and because of that, she's resented. Her acting is passable but not all that good, her video game skills and insight (which seems to be something she's known for) blatantly fall below even the most basic levels (see her Sonic 2 video on Youtube… among others).
She's just kind of famous based on personality alone (and looks, too, I guess), which is a bit baffling because she's kind of average on both. That all said, I wish her well, and hope for the sake of all parties involved, she doesn't fuck this up.
>>63021600
>original crew not involved in any way
He literally says, in the update video, he's invited all of the original cast to be involved as cameos.
>>63021725
Same here. Joel's prop comedy, in the inventions exchange, and sketches, was something I missed, too.

Rifftrax is better because there's a lot of great MST3K episodes but doing shitty modern movies is funnier
He's just doing this to get away from Steven Universe pham
>>63022381
Male or Female?
>>63017362
Not enough Wil.
After so many years of supporting nerd culture, I think he's earned it
>>63022428
She does the voice of Steven.
>>63021533
seriously, does EVERYTHING need to be blacked?
>None of the original cast except for lame ass Joel
>Felicia "lol us geek girls right?" Day

Uh, everything?
>>63022760
Yes.
>>63022428
>Male or Female?
You gender-binary scum.
>>63021352
>just like us
she's a fake cunt that starts crying at the first "mean" comment (translation: critizism)
>>63023577
Daily reminder that diversity is code word for anti-white, that according to liberals diversity of skin is more important than diversity of ideas, personalities, or deeds.
Felicia is really brave.
I read in her book that she gets very painful vagina cysts, so the fact she's going through this pain so we get to see her in this is amazing.
>>63021168
>nerd royalty
I don't know why this started but it has to stop
So this pretty much settles it that Mike is the best, right?
>>63024706
Unequivocally.
>>63024706
I think Joel was fine, performer wise.
My favorite line-up is definitely Mike, Kevin, and Trace, though. I don't really know what people like about Bill Corbett, desu.
>>63024902
I like Corbett Crow more than Trace's.
It might be a product of me liking the Mike era more than the Joel era but I like how Crow became much more sardonic.
>>63025008
I say this as someone who started watching from Mike's first episode on, but I prefer Trace's goofy Crow.
I think those Corbett seasons have their stand outs, but learning about all the behind the scenes drama with the network in those seasons kinda soured me to them a little.
>>63025109
Fair enough. I see where you are coming from.
To me it seemed like with Mike and Bill the riffing took on a more derisive tone. I liked that. Admittedly I haven't watched a lot of Joel episodes recently so I could be wrong.
>New host
His stand up is shit, seeing him in character made me a bit more plausible though
>New Crow
I can't see it, doesn't work
>New Servo
The best of the newcomers if you ask me, not as good as Murphy's but I can see it easily.
>New Mad
Nope
Felicia is too dependant on playing herself. Seeing her in the introduction vid confirms this. She's just there because she's a big name and wants her name tied to the series. She somehow ruins everything she touches.
You never know, it might actually be different but decent once you see the finished product.
>>63026550
It can't be. All the good MST3K are on Riff Trax.
>>63022718
Earned what? A lobotomy?
>>63023806
When a show with mostly white actors has one minority, it's called a token minority. If that show is made by a librul, it's considered "progressive."
>>63021533
Just googled both of those guys standup, they seem kinda bland
>>63022718
Man, imagine how much worse it would've been if he was involved
