I'm in agreement, but some fans think it's an insult to the people who worked on the movie. In some instances it is true. I've read interviews from people that starred in films shown on MST3K and they felt hurt by the mocking or they didn't care for the spirit of it. I don't believe the MST3K crew themselves ever thought of it as talking down or shaming anybody, however. The discussion then continues into talk about "if it's a good movie, then it doesn't matter" or " separate the mocking from the movie" and so on along with "grow thicker skin."

ADDED: To be fair, there are also some creators that loved and enjoyed having their material mocked by the show. It all comes down to each person, I suppose.

Then there are instances like the makers of Time Chasers. They loved MST3K and asked the guys to play their movie. When it ran on MST3K, they were mortified about how hard they got slammed. I don't know what they were expecting, but apparently they weren't too happy with the outcome.
