Finally caught up with this. This is a great way to revisit shorts, so hopefully we’ll see more of them in the future. Crow’s hosting was appropriately Crow-like, the new short was great, and I loved seeing Kinga and Max in the theater.
I loved the Gadget riff, and even my wife, who was reading at the time, laughed at that one.
The Mads Are Back also riffed the entire Mr. B Natural short in their Night of Shorts 8 from July 2022, complete with a Bridget Nelson post show interview!
I’m looking around the gizmoplex site and still have yet to find details on the final events. I was wondering specifically if we will get a 12th short? There are 11 up on the Season 13: The Digital Collection page. I seem to remember 12 being the target number after the Kickstarter concluded.
show “premiere of a new short” for each of the three remaining events. I’m assuming one of them will have the last short. (unless the re-riff of Mr B Natural doesn’t count as a new short)
The Jan 20 event is the Tribute to Overdrawn and the Memory Bank, which is usually when they’ve premiered the shorts in the past. No word yet on what the last two will be.
I love MST3k, this community and all of the MSTies!! Looking back, I’m just so glad we shared a moment in time together and I’m looking forward to seeing us seeing more in the future!!
When I was watching The Selling Wizard, I couldn’t help but think of my local branch of Iceland, which has chiller cabinets very much like that in appearance:
Along with five checkouts of which only two ever seem to staffed at any one time.
The Selling Wizard did a pretty good job at what it was intended to do… sell display freezers to retailers. The girl was there to keep the viewers (i.e., men… all of them) from dozing off during an otherwise long and boring presentation.
