For the uninitiated... A contingent of tropers (mostly from across America) holds regular get-togethers over the Interwebs on this site called Synchtube
which lets individuals, such as ourselves, open and join in text-based chatrooms within typical web browsers (Firefox, Chrome, et. al.) that allow the chat participants to view YouTube videos in synchronization with everyone else present (without even needing to set up an account)... and we've decided to use said chatrooms to play cheeseball webvideos and feature-length movies found in the public domain which stretch all the way from letters B
to Z
, which everyone subsequently riffs on a la MST3K.
For over EIGHT years, everybody who gets involved mostly finds good enjoymentnote in calling out tropes that are recognized in the videos and stories and coming up with jokes to fling back at whatever's happening on the screen, many of which turn into various in-jokes and running gags (a Coven Glossary is kept and maintained for everyone's help and convenience HERE
) to repeat in the chat.
We're always looking for new ways to better coordinate and expand our activities and are more than happy to welcome newcomers interested in joining our gatherings.

I went and watched Bio Dome by myself.
I wanted to scoop out my eyes with a melon baller and lobotomise myself with a rusty knife.
MISSED ME?!?!Attack of the Eye Creatures tonight. No trailer, but this one MST 3 K riff is too good to go ignored.
You saw the best of it while you were in the chat. It had a fair share of odd lines and people looking/acting weird, but it kinda petered out after a while.
For the record, it ended with our protagonist couple convincing all the other couples at Make Out Creek (or whatever it was) to follow them and use their headlights to kill the aliens. Yeah, that's right; light kills the aliens.
To put it this way, it's in the same class as The Beast of Yucca Flats (which, coincidentally, got referenced or spun into a reference at one point during the movie). It's a textbook BAD bad movie and a great example of the form; it just isn't as fun as it could be.

It had some serious pacing problems that really dragged the film down.
Tv Tropes Powers. Activate!!!!!


I'd like to thank you again, nom, for mentioning that damn good movie Traxx. You've definitely redeemed yourself for Foodfight!
Anyway, Wednesday night we'll be watching Robot Jox, which you can check out
above.
