Social Media Post:
Star Trek fans have held the national stereotype of being way too rabid about things for decades but they’re probably the nicest fan base in all of science fiction and the one least likely to have a large faction of them absolutely lose it over a torpedo being fired by a woman or dumb shit like that

    Also, sorry everyone, I was a Trekkie first and I will always come back to Star Trek, but the MST3K fan base is the nicest fan base. The only two bitter arguments I’ve ever seen the community devolve into was Joel vs. Mike (now very moot) and “I hate Crow’s new lady voice” for the most recent season. Other than that, everyone is super nice to a fault. The MST3K forums is the friendliest forum I have ever been on.

      Joel vs. Mike

      Mike is a great writer but Joel by far has the better timing and delivery. Not to derail the thread or anything.

      calmly places halo above his head

        Shit, if MST3K, Cinematic Titanic, and RiffTrax have taught me anything, it’s you can’t win 'em all, but you’re always a winner when you’re laughing with your friends

          Note: rifftrax has now done more riffing than MST3K :)

            And 1% of the production value. I’m just glad they’re all still willing to put out content for us weirdos

              There was production value???

              Actually, if anything the newer mst3k are trying for too much :)

              Rifftrax have 100% of the Funny though

        My attitude is that everyone brought something to the table worth watching.
