What is a MST? Well, MST is short for Mystery Science Theator
3000, a TV show
which has a human and two 'robots' (puppets) making fun of bad
movies. It WAS
on Comity Central, but is now on the Sci-Fi Chanle. Thay mostly
make fun of
old B science fiction and horror movies (with a few fanticy films
in for good
messer).
So only bad fanfiction gets MSTed?
Absolutely NOT. Unlike the show MST3K, most fanfic MSTs are reviews
of fics that are worth reading. Not that there aren't MSTs of bad
fics...there are plenty of *those* around as well. However, most of
the MSTs you read are done because the reviewer liked the fic enough
to feel like taking the time to write a send-up of the fic. And
believe me, MSTs are *not* easy to write, unless the fic is so
terrible it basically makes fun of itself. When reviewing *good*
fics, I end up putting lots of time into the effort. That's why most
of the MSTs I do are of very deserving fics...such as God-boy's "Oh!
My Brother!" and "Shieldsman".
