Inspired by Nekko randomly watching Kevin Smith movies on Youtube today, some folks in the chatroom started talking about watching and commenting on Clerks, MST3K style, but it didn't actually happen. Later on, Nekko asked if he should watch Mallrats or Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back next, and MOGHARR asked if we were gonna do the MST3K commenting. Mallrats wasn't up on youtube, however. I mentioned that if Jay & Silent Bob was up, I'd be up for the MST3K gig, Nekko agreed, and Lem signed on as well. We asked Moggy if he wanted in, but he opted out of it. The entire movie was up on Youtube, in 11 parts. It was a bit torturous, but we got through it, and decided that we're gonna do it again. Possibly next Friday (possibly every Friday, actually), we'll be reviewing another movie in the same fashion, and anyone who would like to join us is welcome. Now, for the part you all came for... the log of our comments. If you want the full MST3K effect, you can find the version we viewed on Youtube still and run it at the same time you read, but that may be ill advised, given the movie we chose to start off with...

Edit: Removed the log and tossed it on the MSLT3K Sydapedia page.

The log of Where the Buffalo Roam is now up on the MSLT3K Sydapedia page. As Nekko said, this one was also spur of the moment, and another one could happen at any time. We have a good time making them, and anyone who wants to join us is free to come into the chatroom, at any time, and say, Hey, we should watch this movie! You can probably find at least one other person willing to join you.

I'm curious to know, though, what do the rest of you guys think of these?

Proof that an MSLT3K can happen at absolutely any time, Lem suggested we watch a movie at around 12:45 AM EST. It almost didn't happen, as all the other folks in the room were idle at the time, but Dignant returned shortly afterwards. We decided on the classic Marx Brothers film, A Night at the Opera. The log can be found here.

We're doing a special MSLT3K tonight, a double feature. We're gonna be watching both the original and new versions of The Producers. As usual, just hop into #sydlexia if you want to join us. We might be starting around an hour from now, or it might be a little later than that, not really 100% sure yet... We're also not 100% sure if we'll watch old, then new, or new, then old, so if you have any preference for that, let us know!

Slight adjustment to the plan, apparently NBC Universal has people searching Youtube for their material round the clock. I uploaded the new version of The Producers just this morning... and when we went to start watching it not too long ago, it was already gone. However, the old version seems to be working fine (for now), so we'll be starting that shortly.
