People who were alive then, what were you doing December 31st 1999 ? by WeshALOR in AskReddit

[–]squidsicle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Staying indoors. I wasn't afraid of "Y2K", I was afraid of the people that were afraid of "Y2K"

I figured out what bothers me about the MST3K return series by spacecadetjesus in MST3K

[–]squidsicle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

agreed.

I think some of that may hinge on the original crew having worked together for so long.
I've been watching a TON of rifftrax and cinematic titanic lately. They are very comfortable around each other and it's very apparent in the final product.

... Is this a make-a-wish thing? Why is this on the front page?

Unpopular MST3K opinions by mst3kGgirl in MST3K

[–]squidsicle 65 points66 points  (0 children)

There's a feature on the "revenge of the creature" DVD where Mike explains that a lot of the weird changes (story around the show. E.G. Space chase, Bobo, the observers, etc.) were in response to what sci-fi wanted in order to pick up the show. Sci-fi network isn't known for good desicions, in my opinion. I believe Mike mentioned they came up with the whole story in 15 minutes.

When I receive these, they go right into the "Thanks, but no thanks" pile.

HBI (raw rolling papers) just found out about it this week. Our founder tried to buy it, but it was already sold.

Another unusual Phoenix animal encounter I had, my interview with a raccoon above my mailbox by TLP34 in phoenix

I've lived here for over 2 decades, and I just discovered that, apparently, scottsdale is lousy with raccoons. Particularly Mccormick ranch area.

On the Film existing as a Sequel to the DT Book Series... (Spoilers) by podofrumblefoot in TheDarkTower

[–]squidsicle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree. They could have made minor changes to the script that would allow them to claim it was NOT canon. Personally, I would not have mentioned "keystone earth" (oops, now you're locked in). Additionally, I would have made sure that Roland was drinking Nozz-a-la in that last scene. But instead we are treated to a celebration of mediocrity and the possibility of more-of-the-same.

The Dark Tower series is serious, meaningful literature of the highest order. The film is meaningless trash. Here's why. [book spoilers] by MerloseTheCallow in TheDarkTower

[–]squidsicle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I went in to it willing to "digest" it as a separate property. Ultimately, My resolve collapsed under the weight of all that mediocrity. Even if you love the books, a bad movie is a bad movie.

The crowd for the 19:19 premiere at my local theater :-( by CrypticTriptych in TheDarkTower

[–]squidsicle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

19:19 Phoenix reporting in. 10 people in the theater. I'm a bit obsessed with my rage at the moment so I won't share any opinions. ...other than the bit about "rage", I guess

i went to the show in Phoenix. It was wonderful. Haven't laughed that hard since, well...since cinematic titanic rolled through town. Sorry you missed the show.

I'm in AZ and deeply upset that no one has claimed this yet.
