What are your favorite B=movies?
Are there any B-movies you think are legitimately good and not just something to laugh at?
Do studios still make traditional B-movies or are they all direct-to-video/indie flicks now?
What is the best MST3K episode and was Joel or Mike a better host?

Space Mutiny
Samurai Cop

Pod People
To name a few.

I like Mike More because hes actually so based he got banned on kiker at some point. Joel meanwhile is a libtard who sold MST3K for that gay cuckflix season.

Basically B movies are the most popular genre in years. The state of modern cinema is so bad that everyone is preferring to watch bad movies from decades past.

>Are there any B-movies you think are legitimately good and not just something to laugh at?
Video related. I think there are plenty that are good for what they are. A lot of well-regarded movies among horror fans were B movies, and I think the low-budget nature of them suits the genre way better than something more polished.

I find old B movies to be more inspiring than a lot of big-budget movies. They just felt like they were making the best they could out of limited resources and tended to have more character to them, even if they weren't necessarily competently made.
>What is the best MST3K episode
My two favorites are Time Chasers followed by The Final Sacrifice.
>and was Joel or Mike a better host?
Mike by far. He was way funnier.
>>347529
I watched those movies in reverse order. I had the third one as a kid recorded off the TV, saw the second one not long after, and only saw the original as an adult.

It's amazing how much better is the italian history of cinema when compared to the French and British.
They made as many arthouse films as they did "so bad it's good" and excellent b-films and exploitation films. I would go further and say that even in painting, design and literature the Italians continued to produce good things while art was already disappearing in the UK and France. I'm not wrong at least on the literary side, Italy in the 20th century produced better books than most of the rest of Europe.
It's a shame that Italy went into economic decline decades ago, but maybe that's a good thing in terms of receiving fewer immigrants than other countries, but we lost out on the artistic side at least for a while.
Maybe at the end of the day while the UK and France are shitty ruins we will have real Italians making art and exporting it to the world.

Yeah, it seems like Italy has been the cultural backbone of Europe at least since the Renaissance, if not since Roman times. Except for the 18th and 19th centuries when France took that crown from them. But that seems more an anomaly in retrospect.
Being in the Anglosphere, we're taught that British culture was super important, but I don't know how true that is. From what I understand, even Shakespeare was barely read in continental Europe before the mid-to-late 1700s.

Mike was obviously the better host. He had better comedic timing, and he was the head writer for most of the show's existence anyway. More importantly, the switch to Mike hosting also gave us the best versions of Tom Servo and Crow.

Also it's extra obvious now considering what an unfunny pile of cringe the MST3K "reboot" is that Joel started up.

Personally, I've never enjoyed Roman literature as much as Greek literature. Virgil is good, but the others are kind of boring. Maybe I'm just reading bad translations.

Yes. And about italian 20th century literature try to read Luigi Pirandello, Italo Svevo and Ítalo Calvino.
And Umberto Eco if you have a tolerance for Reddit boomer literature.

Yes. I've read Dante, Petrarch, Boiardo, Ariosto, and Tasso. All great stuff. Haven't read Boccaccio or Manzoni yet, but I hear they're great as well.

I don't think it's very good, but those opening camera shots are kino. They're really atmospheric and feel straight out of a low-budget flick from decades earlier. Not even B movies were going for that look anymore at the time Coven was shot. I wish movies still looked like that.

I've always thought Mark Borchardt should have gotten into cinematography instead of writing.
