FanVids Site Examines “Project Popcorn”

The creator of the MST3K Fanvids site now has a new blog looking at the topic, called The Binding Polymer.

His most recent post is an extensive, exhaustive look at the Russian MST3K fan creation, “Project Popcorn,” that we all got so excited about recently.

Great research here. Nice job.

    I don’t care that I don’t speak Russian – I’d still like to watch an episode.

    I just knew that this was a fan made show, and not an actual television show like all the overreacting “the Brains should sue them!” types seemed to think.

    It’s interesting to actually find out the shows background, but it’s sad to know that the two episodes that we have are actually all there is. It’s a fun thing to watch even for those of us who don’t speak Russian.

    Funny stuff. And I’m glad they gave us the plot for “The Oboeist.” I couldn’t figure out what was going on when I watched it. Those wacky Georgian filmmakers!

    Fascinating. It may be fan made, but those guys did a good job.

    Nice to see that it was a homage to MST3K by two die-hard Russian fans, rather than a rip-off. Good for them, and as Sampo noted a well-researched (and I might add, very interesting) story.

    I downloaded both episodes months ago. I’m still looking for some kind subtitle software that will allow me to understand what the heck they’re saying. Anyone know of any? The only ones I find are ones where I have to type the subtitles myself. I can’t do that since I don’t know any Russian. Or any foreign languages.
