Mike Nelson’s clearly got a skill – making fake directors’ commentaries for bad movies. He wrote and starred in Mystery Science Theater 3000, in which he and others would comment on bad movies. He’s launched RiffTrax, in which he makes fake directors’ commentaries. But now he’s joined forces with his old Mystery Science Theater 3000 buddies for The Film Crew to… make fake directors’ commentaries for bad movies.
Enough already, guys. We get the point.

I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
