Russian Ripoff of Mystery Science Theater 3000 - Neatorama

(Video Link)

Uhhh....

Allegedly, this is called "Project Popcorn" -- a Russian version of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Crow and Tom Servo were replaced with a penguin and a dog.

the penguin looks sort of like one of the birds from that angry birds skit...

I still miss the original MST. Sigh.

"Won't you come back, Tom Servo? Won't you come back?"

This is so bizarre! How dare they try to recreate MST3K!

What will those crazy pinkos do next?

I wish I knew Russian. Just imagine modern Russians skewering Soviet era Russian B movies. It has to be brilliantly spectacular. It entirely justifies the ripping off of MST3K to me. And I'm a man with every MST3K episode on tape and every DVD they released. :)

After having recently been subjected to an episode of Wipeout, which is a blatant and non-funny rip-off of MXC, I can't even bear to watch this.

I miss Bobo and Brain Guy.
No need to sue Russia. Watching Russian movies is punishment enough.

the guy looks a bit like the second Joel.
And what Smallerdemon said. The concept of Russians doing a Russian version of MST3k is in keeping with the spirit and campiness of MST3k.

Heh, second Joel...I meant Michael. We referred to him as second Joel kind of like how there was a second Darin on Bewitched.

Push the button Frank!

Gah, I don't find MST3K anything other than ANNOYING. I just want those stupid people to SHUT THE HELL UP so we can watch the movie. Blah blah blah! You wouldn't go the the cinema and talk talk talk through the entire damn movie.
