I stayed up late last night watching Santa's Summer House on the stream and that is one bizarre movie.

One thing I picked up on that Kevin, Mike and Bill missed was that Mike the driver was played by this guy, Woo a two time Survivor player ( unless they chose not to crack a joke on it).

Is that the one that has Cynthia Rothrock but not, I don't know, breaking up a drug ring at the North Pole?

It does! She's Ms. Claus and wears a red satin dress and big dark sunglasses the whole time, completely unrecognizable.

Earth Angel is one of those movies where things would have probably turned out the same without the main character. Angela has to use her ghost powers to break up Cindy and Mike but Cindy only started dating Mike because Angela pushed her to. Similarly Cindy's mom didn't seem like she needed a lot of help in seeing that Duke was a d-bag.

I guess you could say that the ultimate goal was to show Angela that she was wrong but the afterlife shouldn't be dragging other people into her (after)life lesson.

I'd like to think David Decoteau cast her because he's a fan, and not just because he could hire her dirt cheap.

I saw bits of that movie on the Twitch channel and couldn't make any sense of it. It's like A Talking Cat!?! if you took out anything interesting about it.

That's a fair assessment.
That movie got two awesome martial artists and couldn't be arsed to give us a single high kick or whatever. And don't tell me the non-existent plot could not have supported a short training scene.

Really if you haven't seen ROTOR treat yourself to a good time tonight.

Personally, I'm more of a Future Force / Future Zone guy, those movies have a stranglehold on me.

I once watched Future Zone and Kill Bill Vol. 2 on consecutive nights. It is astonishing how different an actor’s presence on screen can be affected by the quality of the material he’s given and his affinity for it.

Why do they keep loving around with that when they've got a Twitch channel? They own the streaming rights for their movies; they literally stream them on Twitch already. Do they not have a teenage child they can ask to set up OBS for them?

It's true, the Twitch tag does say 'watch party with the MST3K gang' but I'm not sure they've ever even come to the Twitch chat more than once or twice.

It's hard to do live commentary from multiple sources synced with a movie. Even a half-second delay somewhere can completely kill comic timing.

Syncing up multiple chats with a movie is Scener's whole thing, although it obviously has major reliability problems.

The correct answer is to just pre-record it and sync each of their local streams for the playback, but then it's not really "live".

Trace and Frank do their livestreams over Zoom so it works but it can still end up with awkward moments like stepping on each others lines or just random technical issues.

If you know, what exactly does Scener do?

Live commentary from multiple sources seems hard from a physics standpoint. If the delay exists at all to start with between Mike/Bill/Kevin's method of communication, the best scener could do would be to delay the broadcast feed by X seconds, and integrate the Mike / Kevin / Bill feeds offset by however many seconds they were behind. It would give the illusion of no lag. That's still your 'just pre-record it' solution, just executed more quickly. They would still step over each other's words a lot because in the moment they were talking, they had not received the other guys' words to react to yet.

It's the same reason there's AFAIK no good way at all to play live music with people over the internet. You can't play in response to anyone due to lag. The best you could do is each play to a click track, have some server sync up your recordings and show you the result, but again that's the same as the 'just pre-record it' solution.

Some of the tunes on these albums sound similar enough. Which makes sense, because it's the same composer.
