Definitely Jimmy. Marv wasn't a genius by any stretch of the imagination, but his problem was that the universe was dead set on making GBS threads all over him.

I've harassed them on Twitter but they won't come to Canada. I'm guessing because of our lack of Alamo drafthouses.

I'm going with Marv, because that movie actually made me mad the first time I watched it. Jimmy did a bunch of dumb poo poo to impress a girl who at least returned the affection. What is Marv's excuse?

They came to my town (not an Alamo Drafthouse, just a regular 1920s theater updated to a movie/arts venue) specifically because a fan reached out to the theater, not to the Mads, and helped make it happen. So if you at least know of a local venue that could host, contact and bug the hell out of them until they get in touch with the Mads.

They didn't? Was there something else to the long awkward scene of "Sodium reacts violently with water, but enough distractions we need to figure out a way of harming these water-based creatures (ignore humans being 60% water). Think!" Or my memory could have made the scene longer and more frustrating, it's been 20 years since I saw that one.

Mike and the Bots really lean into the sodium thing when the plot lulls again after they've already got the sodium (or at least have figured it out, the one guy has to drive into the big city to get a substantial amount after all) and what they're stuck on is how to actually track down the monsters to use the sodium on them.

He gets involved with a con-man who dabbles as a carrot in his spare time.

Rewatched The Time Travelers and it's still not a bad movie. It's not a GREAT movie, but I'd probably watch it by itself. It's like The Time Machine with a bit of The Cold Equations mixed in. Plus, I do love all the practical effects. They at least tried harder than the folks making 12 to the Moon did.

speaking of, Time Chasers is pretty watchable in the strictest understanding of the word, in that there's a plot, relevant dialogue, lighting and sound are decent, and editing is fine, which means it's a cut above most other MST3K movies.

Like, the Time Chasers would have been a pretty great Twilight Zone episode

Maybe a pretty good Outer Limits romp


But as its own feature length thing, it's just way too long for as little content as it possesses. I want to like it as a movie more than I really do. But it does stand heads and shoulders above most of the MST3K library for that reason

Bicyclops

Rewatching a few of the old ones, I do appreciate the pacing and the tone of the riffs more overall, but one thing I love about the new show is that they aimed to get films that at least had high quality prints and decent lightning, and where, for the most part, you can at least understand what the characters are saying. The movie selection was really good for season 11.

Tonight was my second time to see The Mads are Back, the movie this time was The Tingler. A "better" "film" than last year's Walk the Dark Street but thankfully just as good for riffing.
Trace did say they plan on releasing the riffs digitally since the movies they pick are public domain, they just don't have immediate plans while they're still able to do regular live shows.

I saw them a few weeks back in Frederick MD. My dad was super excited because he remembers seeing tingler back when he was younger. Missed out on Glen or Glenda that evening because I had to work the next day.

They could use Campbell's soup -- that's got a lot of sodium.
