Is it bad that I get mad whenever I see a new Rifftrax sample appear...only to see in the text "Rifftrax Presents". I have only bought two of them, and those were the ones with just Kevin and Bill in it.

HypnoCabbage posted:Yeah, like Dave Kehr said about Lost Skeleton of Cadavra, the strange thing about camp is that you can't make it, you have to find it. It's basically a carefully balanced mixture of sincerity and weirdness; not enough of one or the other and it doesn't work. I loved that movie. But I do agree a bit. There was that scene where the aliens shoved their faces into their food, for example. It was more of a sitcom gag instead of a sly joke about 50s b-movies.

It always seemed a bit unfair that Kevin and Bill without Mike have to go under the "Presents" label, while Mike alone or with celebrity guests gets Rifftrax proper. Yeah, Mike started the thing but at this point Kevin and Bill are key parts of the whole endeavor. They shouldn't be shunted into the fan riff ghetto.

Click the "?" under my name. There you will see approximately 4,000 recommendations for The Day After Tomorrow. Because it is the BEST riff. There is no discussion here.  Also, Alien and Saw are pretty good, too.

I believe afterward they said "it was really disturbing trying to riff that movie, we won't be doing any more Saw riffs" or something like that. Can't say I blame them.

The Grudge is comical and ridiculous. Saw is not at all, it's just completely uncomfortable.

 The new Mortal Kombat game just came out so me and some other guys finished up our iRiff on Mortal Kombat: The Journey Begins. It's a lovely animated movie they released on VHS for free rentals at video stores to promote the then-upcoming MK movie back in the 90's. It's 40 minutes long with terrible, repeated 2D animation and even worse 3D animation during Raiden's flashbacks for starters. We're charging a buck for the mp3, but to hell with it. Here's the whole thing for you.

My god I watched that when I was a kid. I remember wondering why they repeated the animation of Baraka's running over and over again.

Figured I post here because I love MST3K and I love microtransactions so I have seen most of Rifftrax's shorts and a great bit of film commentaries (they tore apart Highlander brilliantly and it's one of my favorite movies despite the sequels and spinoffs) and it's the only way I have watched The Happening, The Room, and Birdemic.

I watched the riff for Jurassic Park III. It wasn't one of Elliott's best efforts, but I blame it on bad source material. That movie was awful.

I haven't seen II or III since they were in the theaters, but I remember Lost World being a lot dumber than III. I mean, sure, III had 'communicate with raptors via conch', but II had 'defeat raptor via gymnastics' and a bunch of protagonists that constantly made the situation worse.

There's a new short about Kangaroos and despite supposedly being an educational short it makes a really bizarre claim about the reason there aren't any Kangaroos in America is because they were all eaten by wild lions. Yeah...

I can't wait, I've been waiting for them to come out for a while. WHAT AM I? EDIT: Found some Amazon links for them, and they're $11.99 for each bluray disk. That's a ridiculously nice price. Refeer Madness Bluray on Amazon House On Haunted Hill Bluray on Amazon Oddly enough, the DVDs are more expensive, at $14.95 each. Odd, so I'm pre-ordering the blurays right now.

I'm watching The Being On Time Game short and holy poo poo, I think the old man who plays Mr. Mac is Hal Smith, the guy who played Otis from The Andy Griffith Show. Maybe there will be credits at the end of this. edit: damnit Mike, don't say "rule 34"

Nice to see the live shows coming out on Blu-Ray (Oh, What fresh hell is this?), but does anyone know if they'll ever have more live shows? Those are exceptionally fun.
