Joel posted an update to his MST3K Revival project, and the RiffTrax Live campaign shot past $370K in funding and is now closing in on the final stretch goal.

They already excited the final goal and said in the comments they're thinking about new stretch goals. That Joel letter went out to around 49K people.

And though Zappa died before fulfilling plans to collaborate with Best Brains on a giant spider movie “told from the spider’s point of view,” the Mothers of Invention mastermind would have had a field day digging through the moldy vaults now at MST’s disposal.” How loving bizarre would that have been?

So, 24 hours later, with no stretch goals in sight, the campaign gathered another $60K in pledges. People are literally throwing money at them.

Everyone who contributes even a dollar will get those stretch goals for free. That's a pretty drat good deal to get all those commentaries for free. Might be able to convince some people to buy into this, so long they can put up with the long wait time it will take for them to record this.

The thing is messed up, because now I see the original graphic, with Gravity being the first reward, and Blu-ray the second. Doesn't matter anyway, as both rewards are unlocked. e:clarity ringu0 fucked around with this message at 01:42 on Apr 8, 2016 |

I just hope they're faster with the mp3 Riffs than they were for Harry Potter Deathly Hallows part 2. If anyone is jumping on Kickstarter for the first time because of this project, they might be taken aback by how long it takes before they get what they paid for.

They're over 8k backers now, so Daredevil episode 1 is happening. E: If they keep adding backers at this rate, they'll easily clear 9000 by the end, maybe even 9500. HypnoCabbage fucked around with this message at 03:23 on Apr 8, 2016 |

I jumped on Kickstarter for the first time to back this project, but I'm a long time Rifftrax follower so the wait won't surprise me. Besides, as cool as the reunion show will be, the REAL draw for me is all those delicious shorts. It is awesome that the MST3k revival and the reunion show are breathing new life into the classic format. I love Rifftrax just as much as MST3k (maybe even more so), but I do miss moments like Dr. Forrester designing depressing children's toys or Brain Guy carefully picking garbage out of his brain pan. I'm looking forward to the revival and this reunion seems like the perfect way to "pass the torch" as it were.
