Big Mean Jerk posted:I doubt they’re going back to Netflix anyway if they’re crowdfunding. Might just be something with Shout/Pluto. Possibly, but I don't think Shout really made any money off of the Kickstarter itself-they funded the show (and paid the cast and crew) but I don't think there was a ton leftover. My best guess is that any profit they made would've been from selling the show to Netflix.

My best guess is that any profit they made would've been from selling the show to Netflix. The main profit would be from selling MST3k DVDs, as well as the original un-MSTed movies. If you'd never seen the show before and you liked the Gauntlet, Shout's making a profit on every episode of the original show you end up buying.

Yeah, they definitely didn’t make a profit directly from the last two seasons. The first Kickstarter didn’t actually end up covering their costs. They needed the Netflix money for that. Then the second season was the opposite: the Netflix money didn’t cover their costs, so they ran a second, smaller crowdfunding campaign to make up the difference.

Over the years I've discovered that I literally almost care not at all who's the host, and who's Crow, but Kevin is just irreplaceable as Servo.

While the Kickstarter isn’t live yet, it seems people have found the video for it. https://v.kickstarter.com/1617903926_640398c78adac4003fe3378e86fef2106aae5f04/projects/4107364/video-1097343-h264_high.mp4 In summary: Releasing episodes through their own streaming app, The Gizmoplex. The Kickstarter goals are similar to last time as far as dollar amounts and number of episodes, but with the addition of a 12 shorts if they hit their top goal. By self-releasing they think they can put out episodes one at a time as they’re completed rather than waiting to release a whole season.

Goblin Craft posted:Over the years I've discovered that I literally almost care not at all who's the host, and who's Crow, but Kevin is just irreplaceable as Servo. To be fair Trace, Bill, and Hampton all typically have a similar tone of voice when playing Crow while most of Tom’s actors sound almost completely different to one another. I prefer Kevin but the other two aren’t bad (though Josh mostly just sounded bored/half asleep a lot of the time).

Josh wasn’t great as Servo, but he was so young that I can’t say I blame him. He was much better as a riffer on Cinematic Titanic.

My kids are obsessed with watching old America's Funniest Home Videos episodes on Disney+, and I swear I can tell when Trace and Josh are on the writing team just from the cadence of the riffs. Anyways, I'm super hype to get in on this crowdfunding today. My dream riffer team is Bill, Jonah and Baron Vaughn.

So no more Emily Marsh? That's kind of a bummer--I liked the energy she brought to things, although I can see why they'd want Jonah for brand continuity and whatever star power he brings to it. I think Joel's really succeeding in making MST3K more like an institution than a set group of performers who do their thing--the rotating cast thing is feeling more natural every time.

That's kind of a bummer--I liked the energy she brought to things, although I can see why they'd want Jonah for brand continuity and whatever star power he brings to it. They always presented her and the rest of her crew as “The cast of MST3K Live”, so they were distinct from the cast of the show itself, but with all the streaming stuff they did in the last year, it certainly felt like they might be going with them when they made a new season. Ultimately, I’m glad that they appear to have stuck with the Jonah and crew, but honestly it was going to feel like one of the casts was kind of getting screwed no matter who they went with.

Diabolik900 posted:While the Kickstarter isn’t live yet, it seems people have found the video for it. Extremely hyped for this. I didn't back their first Kickstarter because I was convinced a revival would be a mistake. New cast and writers ended up completely living up to the lofty heights set by the original series. Hoping enough people agree with me and I can somehow live in a world of an uncancellable MST3K.

I am a little worried about the fact that their goals are basically the same as last time. I’m not so sure that they’ll be able to raise as much the second time around, especially seeing the less positive reaction this seems to be getting so far on some other parts of the internet. I’m personally willing to contribute just as much as last time though.

Completely understand most of these. For us, Christmas that Almost Wasn’t has become part of our holiday rotation now. Also Lords of the Deep doesn’t get enough love.

Cry Wilderness is easily in my top 10 episodes of all time. Some many good riffs and it really showed the potential of the new cast. Carnival Magic and Avalanche are incredibly re-watchable as well.
