The Bass Geek

Even after this weekend’s football debacle, I knew that the universe would somehow correct itself and make things right. And so it has - and once again we owe it all to the Internet. This Wired report has some of the original MST3K cast coming together for what appears to be riffery of a more refined sort (in that they gave up the jumpsuits, you know) as “Cinematic Titanic,” riffing away on terrible movies ’til there ain’t no more crappy frames left. Toss in some RiffTrax, and it seems like the entire cast of the old show is active once again in satirizing crappy movies. It’s a good thing, too, as my videotapes of the series are still in boxes, and I don’t have a functional VCR anymore. I still retain, however, my original fan club materials and stickers. I want those buried with me.

One can only hope, however, that it doesn’t return to the Mike vs. Joel wars of the mid-90s. We lost a lot of good soldiers then.
