Welcome to the Forum! I’m so excited to see the episode this week!
I hope you’re not put off by the fact that we’re a cult bunch of slightly kooky, nerdy people who have a soft spot for riff-able movies. I go back for the same “terrible” episodes again and again because I love them so much. It’s like mom used to say: the boys wouldn’t tease you unless they liked you. 
Thank you for the welcome, and thank you for being so sweet! We’re actually really excited about it. Thomas and I are fans from way back, so this is kind of a surreal experience. Never in a million years did we think enough people would even SEE the movie for something like this to happen. I will say that people have been overwhelmingly supportive, and that is so incredibly appreciated. Thanks again!

THIS NEW 30-SECOND TEASER, AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
SO HYPED, FOLKS 
SO
HYPED
IT’S HAPPENING!
It’ll take me a while to get used to Joel’s new voice, but I think in the end it will be exactly what it needs to be.
Hey, thank you for all that you’ve done and for taking the time to hang out in these forums!
We’ll definitely be looking forward to this week’s episode, and we’re all going to be so jazzed FOR you. Cheers, and all the best!
Are you sure?
Because I get the feeling you’re still a little “on the fence” about the whole endeavor.
I mean, granted, I do tend to underplay things often, my very posts being a digital representation of the mask of stoicism that I wear elsewhere.
I mean, you only used 633 exclamation points. Not even one thousand. I think you’re just pretending to be excited.
[scribbles frantically in journal]
"Day 334
They know about the exclamation points.
THEY KNOW.
No idea how to proceed from here. I may have to use big -and- bold -AND- italicized text."
Do you dare??
At least he doesn’t hate his own new voice:
Wait a minute … we all heard it in the Kickstarter finale marathon. Matt McGinnis IS Joel’s new voice.
I’ve already watched that new teaser several times already. This is me in one emoji:
Are ya sure that Joel sounds weird? Huh. I don’t hear anything different.
Nah, theirs has a red membraney head thing. Ours is purple! Totally different.
First I’ve seen of the Star Raiders monster, but we must’ve all bought our silicon masks from the same company, CFX Composite Effects. This must be what it feels like when you also wear white to the wedding, ha.
Welcome to the boards, Thomas and @Erin_Lilley_Smith! It’s so cool have have both of you here.
I AM CONSIDERING THE USE OF SUCH FONT EMBELLISHMENTS
Happy to be here! We’re looking forward to Friday!
