Mystery Science Theater 3000

Some may say the movies they showed were terrible, others may say the movies were nostagic. Some even go as far to say that some of the movies were good.

I never watched Mystery Science Theater 3000 so I have no opinion on this. How has everyone else reacted to Mystery Science Theater 3000?

It's the best thing TV ever did for us.

I can't remember a single well-made or well-thought-out movie ever being watched on MST3K. Definitely bad movies all around. That was the fun of it: they were so bad, they were easy cannon fodder.

Good movies? Really? They can't have meant Sinbad or Danger! Death Ray...

The Manos episode is an absolute classic. Like, everyone should see it at one point.

What? It's a well-known fact that Manos: The Hands of Fate is one of the greatest, most well-made films of all time.

MST3k is one of my favorite shows of all time. Nothing (not even Rifftrax, though they are awesome) can match its epic.

^Literally. RiffTrax is done by one half of the MST3K cast, and Cinematic Titanic is done by the other half.

I like Joel a lot, but Mike was a lot funnier. Can't really say I prefer one over the other.

Of all of the episodes I've seen of this show, Space Mutiny is still my favorite. I laugh harder every time, and it's rare that a "funny" thing holds up that well to multiple viewings with me.

'Space Mutiny' was a fantastic MST3k episode. People can talk up the abysmally wretched movies all they like---I'd much rather watch something excruciatingly goofy, any day.

Honestly, Joel. I mean it's... it's just... it's Joel.
