Turkey Week Starts Tonight

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

That’s right. At midnight.  Come on down.  I’m running it by the seat of my pants this year, so it’ll probably start with the premiere of The Wasp Woman, which got the Cineamtic Titanic treatment. Come on down.

Turkey Week

Friday, November 21st, 2008

There will be a Thanksgiving marathon this year. I’m just not hyping it as much. And the schedule won’t be out until later. But it’ll start 24 hours before Thanksgiving and last a week or so. It’ll be the usual assortment of stuff seen on mst.

Admit you’re coming over here.

Fan-cy

Go declare your fanhood of Inventing Situations over on Facebook. There are even some photos for you to cap.

Four Star Theater has moved to Mondays

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

Our weekly dose of the movies and whatnot that cappers have rated as their favorites to caption has moved to Monday nights at 8 PM eastern. So those of you swinging by on Wednesday nights – sorry, you’ll have to make due with our usual fare. Though we might toss on something special for the first week of the move (4/23).

Don’t forget that the programming for four star theater is decided by your votes – so when you see that ‘tag it & rate it’ notice, click it and rate the ‘cap’-ability of the material – anything that averages a rating of four or better gets a slot in four star theater, in addition to its usual slot in the rotation. And the stuff that comes in at two or lower will play less frequently in the regular rotation.

And don’t forget to tune in to Inventing Situations on Monday 4/28 @ 8PM for The Amazing Transparent Man, as featured in mst3k episode [623].

Rifftrax hits the first Inventing Situations short

Saturday, February 2nd, 2008

00002_05.jpg You may recognize the frighteningly earnest fellow on the left as the star of Act Your Age, the first short I played at Inventing Situations when it rose out of the ashes of HCT six years ago this month. Until I started shuffling the shorts a few months back, he was also the sign that we’d cycled through the rotation again.

Well, Kevin, Mike, and Bill have made the short the target of their latest on-demand offering at RiffTrax.com, and it’s a pretty solid and nicely priced effort. I’d like to think they chose it to honor IS’ birthday. Plus, if you’re like me and you don’t care for the divx player they use, you can also download the track from rifftrax and the movie from archive.org and synch them up yourself. Anyway, to honor the occasion, some brand spanking new grabs from the short will be playing on IS at 1 PM Tuesday the 5th – aka JoeCrow Day
