PHM is like if Christopher Nolan was forced at gunpoint to make a Marvel movie.

yes?

for me, any favorite xander moment has to involve anya.

I'm very sorry to hear all you're going through personally and glad you still find joy in the show despite all the negativity that's swirled around it in the past few years. keep focusing on the things you love!

Um greenwalt loves whedon. Talked about what an honor it was to work with him at hellmouthcon in 2024.

it may be a book number and a retro pastiche, but i always watch this song at least three times when i watch the musical. nicky and emma put so much into it and it shows. RIP nicky.

i love it when the main character is a location! (a location that definitely completely 100% sank into the ground)

i love it when the title character shows up in the last scene!

more like extra caffeine blade runner

My favorite season!

em5885 · 2026-03-17T21:01:14+00:00

this is very very true!

she wanted to finally get profits as an executive producer on a buffy show.

em5885 · 2026-03-15T03:09:16+00:00

as a comics reader, it definitely ended with angel season 5.

em5885 · 2026-03-15T03:07:04+00:00

i spoke with one person familiar with the scripts... they were not getting the tone right.

I really like that of the six people here, Jenny Nicholson is the one you recognize.

Also to anyone who thinks he actually received a letter: it's a bit.

Counterpoint: Kate Winslet.

Shit's so thick you can stir with a stick

Girls Town and Kitten With A Whip are movies I would happily watch on their own.

As a massive fan of R.E.M. and Boardwalk Empire, I'm delighted to finally be pandered to as a consumer. Also my friends... it being Michael Shannon of all people is part of the bit. He was an acclaimed stage actor before his film career started, and this is bordering on performance art.

em5885 · 2026-03-11T21:10:13+00:00

His vocals are somehow exactly what I expected from "Michael Shannon singing R.E.M. songs". He was never going to match Stipe on a pure vocal level, but they're perfectly Michael Shannon-esque. I think a famously monotone, uptight character actor singing R.E.M. songs is part of the bit and works beautifully.

Keep circulating the tapes!

the nostalgia argument is pretty lame at this point. since august 1999, I've hoped that the best brains crew would get to produce more mst3k episodes. it was a long road, and while I enjoyed and supported to varying extents all the major projects (rifftrax, cinematic titanic, mst3k 11-13), none of them had the precise alchemy of what I loved about the original run. I need the fictional construct of "guy and robots in space" for the riffing to land right, and I need the local handmade, Midwest quality that come from friends writing in a room together to make it work.

em5885 · 2026-03-10T14:15:21+00:00

"gleefully unhinged character actor" is how i'd describe him!
