The “MST3K 20th Anniversary Edition” DVD set has been nominated by the Saturn Awards in the Best DVD Collection category. The 35th Annual Awards will be held on June 25th. Congratulations to Shout! Factory!
This weekend’s thread comes in the form of a request for your help. Jordan Fields, director of acquisitions at Shout! Factory, has agreed to be the subject of our next “20 questions” feature. Jordan has a long history with MST3K:
A former screenwriter, Fields started at Shout! Factory in 2004 in the production department. In 2005, he moved to Rhino Entertainment as acquisitions manager, where his responsibilities included product managing their MST3K releases. In 2007, he went back to Shout! Factory as director of acquisitions and worked to bring MST3K distribution rights there. He works closely with DVD producer Brian Ward on their MST3K releases and helped engineer the MST3K reunion at last year’s San Diego Comic-Con. Jordan has been at the heart of the decision-making process for MST3K on home video for quite some time, and looks to be at the heart of it for quite some time to come. So, what do you think we should ask him? The latest short:
Download it here. Free sample here. Meanwhile, RiffTrax is now offering DVD versions of three of the recent “3 riffer” riffs. The offerings are Night of the Living Dead, Little Shop of Horrors and Reefer Madness. Shout! Factory tells us that, due to technical quality issues, they’re replacing the footage of Joel and Trace’s MIT appearance with another bonus feature to be named later. They assure us they still plan to produce a featurette on “The Speculative Science and Technology of MST3K” with Joel and Trace for a future release.
