Woodland Hills, CA screening here only had about 15 seats left. edit: Oh yeah and people in my theatre booed Lowtax

Just got back from the showing here in Merced. Only 10 of us there, which was about 11 more than I expected for this area...I think one or two of those that showed up were goons. The whole thing was awesome...can't wait for the DVD!

Yeah, I was at the Portland show (packed) and saw it too. Something the restorers of the movie did for laffs or a Rifftrax easter egg? But god drat that was funny. Crying with laughter at some points.

Pittsburgh goon here. God, that show was INCREDIBLE. I'm a long time MST3K fan and I've casually followed RiffTrax, but I can safely say that tonight's presentation was the funniest riff I've ever seen. Right off the bat, the short had me in loving stitches. The "Bob Executive" line had the entire theater howling. Obvious goon presence, but not as bad as I expected. We had a few A/V glitches right off the bat, but they went away and it was smooth sailing for the rest of the show. I'd give anything for another RiffTrax Live showing. Oh, and gently caress you, Jim Mallon.

The person running the projector at our showing had a bitch of a time getting the movie to start and spent like 10 minutes loving around on a Dish DVR menu while fast forwarding through some random lady singing, which was a pretty funny intro. Stay classy, AMC La Jolla Bastard Tetris fucked around with this message at 06:48 on Aug 21, 2009 |

Theatre was pretty full at Edwards in San Diego. I wasn't aware of the Lowtax collaboration and was very pleasantly suprised. The Hay and Grain expo commercial beat everything else for me in terms of laughs per minute. loving epic Like everyone else, quite a few goony looking people around

I caught the showing in Ventura, Ca. I'd guess that the seats were 90% full. They showed it on their largest screen in the biggest room. Odds are they'd be willing to run it again here.

Just got back from the show and god it was great. There were some hiccups during the stewardess bit but no problems once the main show started up. I'm really looking forward to the DVD release although I'll probably get the downloads in the morning.

Back from the Beaverton, Oregon showing. Sat right next to a few goons, and there were some goony-looking people all over. Funniest part was "Homotania!" Close second was Fragmaster's face briefly in the short.

I only caught it for a split second, and didn't realize who was in it. imdb says: In the colorized Legend Films DVD release, during one shot of the scene where the Ghoul Man terrorizes the woman in her home, the images inside the picture frames on the bedroom wall have been digitally replaced with pictures of other people. This anomaly does not occur in any other print of Plan 9 and is unique to the Legend Films release.

Apparently they had an eBay auction to get a picture in the frame and another one to get their name engraved on the tombstone.

Sterling Heights here. It was the largest gathering of neckbeards I've seen in my life. Other than the hiccups at the beginning and the lady sitting next to me singing over Jonathan Coulton, it was an awesome night. The entire theater broke out in applause at the Detroit joke in the stewardess sketch. (Because it's so true.)

I wasn't able to go to a theater tonight, so I totally had to miss this . I saw talk about some sort of DVD and/or download? What's the word on that? Dare I hope that Rifftrax will put this on their catalogue? If this was asked or answered already, sorry; I skimmed the OP and found nothing, and its a big thread.

"Sorry Fort Worth!" Just got back from the show at The Block in Orange, Ca. Lots of Goonish people in there, although very little clapping during Lowtax's appearances. We were theorizing that Goons just don't really want to meet each other. Anyway, it was great fun. Brought back a lot of the old MST3K memories. Kudos to Mike et al.

Oh, I didn't see a shot very close to the one on the EP cover, but the resemblance is quite uncanny to me. It makes me wonder if they did get it from Plan 9.

inaniloquent posted:I'm so excited. I'm getting married this weekend, and this is my last unmarried couple date with my husband-to-be. I was there too.  I was with my brother and a bunch of his friends, including the guy sitting near the top who laughed unnecessarily loudly at everything as if to say "HA HA I GET [POP CULTURE REFERENCE]!!" So I would like to apologize to anyone who might have been at the Riverside show for his obnoxiousness. Also, it seems like everyone here (myself included) hated Jonathan Coulton. Nobody sang along. But yeah, Flour and Grain Expo and Berrywatch were amazing, and I agree that "I'm Bob Executive. Where is business?" was the greatest line out of the whole show. I wish Fragmaster had showed up for longer.

I have no idea who Jonathan Coulton is and I'm not sure anyone in the theater with me did either. The people intently singing along on the video got a lot of laughs though.

I just got back from the one in San Francisco. Lots of goony looking people including a morbidly obese woman who seemed pretty pissed off that there was stuff before the main feature and yell-laughed at everything except for the fat jokes.

Tendai posted:I'm pretty sure 90% of the theater where we were in Albuquerque did. I did. Not our row, at least at the downtown Albuquerque theater...my friends just laughed at the ladies singing onscreen. Also, the unfunny prick sitting towards the front tried his best to ruin everyone else's experience in the nearest vicinity by loudly auditioning his own terrible material. He was stepping all over the Rifftrax jokes, and even his own friends seemed annoyed with him. I told him to shut up, which seemed to work for about fifteen minutes. I realize that this type of environment may be more conducive for people "interacting" more with the movie, but I'd prefer to listen to paid professionals over your witless drivel. Anyone else have this problem during their viewing?

Wife and I saw this at the Alderwood theater, north of Seattle. Awesome stuff, though the screen went blank/silent for a few seconds a couple times. It was like a warmup to PAX in a few weeks, seeing all the nerdy folks in attendance. Made me smile even when walking out behind someone with awful BO. Lowtax, my wife really liked the skits!

I was at Pacific Place in Seattle. I think I was the only one who laughed at Fragmaster. Also, lots of people around me were saying "Who's Jonathan Coulton?" My friends and I all sang extra loud just for them.

drat theys be some neckbeards in Carbondale. The Lowtax shorts went over well in spite of it being what I assume was a non-goon crowd. However, is live-appearance, not so much... Probably because we couldn't hear him. Good times. "MUST...EAT...MORE....BACON"
