Well, it's not like he didn't bring it on himself...
But I personally will not be spewing any hatred in Jim's direction at the panel, as that would just make me look like a jerk. In fact, I have a feeling most people will avoid the hard hitting questions for the same reason. There has to be one brave soul out there who is willing to ask him "What the f**k is up with picking the Bot cartoons over Joel? have you lost it?"
;D

I hope things are kept pretty civil. It would be nice to know the answer to that particular question, but it would also be nice if the show's fans can avoid acting like jerks.

I wholeheartedly agree with you CH. Let's hope the side of geekdom that exhibits atrocious social skills and poor personal hygiene don't rear their ugly heads during what could be the most amazing reunion panel ever!

*Actual Fictional Phone Conversation between Joel and Jim*"Jim, come on, you should totally come to Comic-Con with us, it'll be fun." "Uh, I dunno, Joel, I get the feeling that I'm not that well-liked amongst the fans." "Nooooo, no, don't be silly, that's just the minority - you know, you had a great thing going with those little cartoon guys, in fact you should use Comic-Con to announce you're bringing them back!" "What's that laughing in the background?" "I don't hear anything - Quiet, guys, you're gonna blow it!" But I kid Mr. Mallon. This should be veeeerrry interesting. ;D But yeah, if anyone starts up with the lame whiney fanbrat shennanigans towards Jim, I swear I'm gonna clock 'em with the nearest homemade Tom Servo and/or bat'leth replica.

Hahaha!! Awesome characterizations yet again, Robyn! Really, I don't think it's necessary to get all whiney and mean about it. Starting a fight with Jim is totally pointless. All one will have to do is stand up, put on the most pathetic puppy dog expression they can muster and say, "Jim...... why?" Everyone will know what you're talking about, and you might be able to come off not looking like an butthole.

Yup, you've really got the "knack" for writing dialog, oh Master-Mistress of Ice-Fu ® I've barely begun to register what an eventful panel this is, but one thing I have realized is that we who can't make it won't be dependant on a video-view from recently chastened members. ( meaning - those who recorded videos at San Jose that never actually existed ( ) won't be our only source ! ) Almost anything I've Googled like the next Star Trek or Heroes or what-have-you tends to be up on YouTube w/ a decent Comic-Con video. So if turns out to be an ugly pile-on Jim which rules it out as a Shout Factory extra, it will most likely still turn up for our viewing pleasure. Hopefully within 3 minutes of the event. Perhaps a live feed even ? ;D

I will have a video recorder (like a real one, not a cell phone), and I will record the entire thing. I apologize ahead of time if the majority of the video is spent capturing Joel's immortal beauty, but I'll try to get the other action too! ;D
I'm gonna practice with this sucker first so that there are no mistakes the day of the taping, and make sure I have the stuff necessary to YouTube it soon afterwards. I'm so excited!

I'm so excited! Yay! Hopefully you'll be better at filming than I was...my video from Super-Con has no zoom and little to no camera moving in general. You see pretty much all 4 of them all the time. XD; (Still gotta consult my friend about putting my stupid outdated Hi8 video on the computer somehow...<.<)

Here's a bit of good news on this crazy night:
I have found a buyer for those extra Rifftrax tickets, so I don't have to worry about that anymore! Still sucks that Anchan can't come, but we'll tear up Minneapolis in October, right girlie? ;D

That was kinda bugging me, and I was actually thinking of writing you a check for that...<__< I can't wait for the fall! ^o^

Man, I know it's still over a month away, but I'm getting so anxious over this! What time should I get there? What is there to see? When should we prepare to get in the panel room? I don't wanna come all that way only too have it be too crowded and I can't go in! No seriously, I would cry. Maybe start a fire. Are there gonna be sweaty geeky guys staring at me? Drooling even? What fun stuff will be going on at the Rifftrax booth? Will I get to meet any of the Brains? What on Earth should I say to them if I do? Remind myself to go to the bathroom before meeting them, in the rare event that my excitement gets the better of me. Have Sprite on hand for the same precautionary measures with the tummy. I need to remember to bring something for them to sign! What should I wear? Comfortable shoes are a must, but I have to look cute (in the event of a Joel landing)! XD For the love of God, don't forget the Rifftrax tickets! Or the paper that lets me get the con pass for that matter! Bring deodorant. I want to be one of the few people there without pit stains. So many things to think about! Such excitement! I CAN'T WAIT!!!! XD XD XD

I seriously had a nightmare where we totally missed the MST3K panel. D: I've heard some people say it might be a good idea to get to the room before the actual panel and sit in on the previous panels, just in case. You should definitely plan on getting there early. BUT DON'T PANIC. EVERYTHING IS GOING TO FINE. *voice getting higher and shriller every moment* XD
As for "What the hell do I say to the Brains?", my advice is to bring something to sign so you can focus the bulk of your attention on that instead of "OMG HE'S RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF ME I CAN'T EVEN LOOK AT HIM AAHHHHHH!!" Believe me, this helps a lot. And if you can't think of anything to say, stick with, "I'm a big fan, it's so cool to meet you, good luck with RiffTrax/Cinematic Titanic."
As for what to wear, it's going to be hot, so dress accordingly. I suggest a string bikini. XD

Gross! A string bikini must be worn with high heels at all times to accentuate the legs! XD So even if we did go looking totally hot, by the time of the panel our feet would be sooo sore. Though maybe that would entice Joel to give us a foot rub... Maybe not such a bad idea after all... ;D

Girl, you're so crazy. ;D Actually, as long as we're talking about what to wear, I was thinking about Anchan's fangirl shirts, and how it'd be kinda cool if one of us was wearing a Joel shirt while the other wears a Mike shirt. It'd be cute AND symbolic! Or something. I'm considering wearing my fangirl shirt either way, except I can't find it! *flail* I shouldn't be surprised, my home is a total black hole, but with any luck I'll be able to locate it in time. I lost the Cinematic Titanic shirt I got at Super-Con as well. Oy.
