The Case of Tommy Tucker is a two parter around 25 minutes. Call it Free is also a two parter around 20 minutes. And there's several shorts right around the 20 minute mark.

If you buy the Shorts DVDs, then they combine the 2 parters into one seamless Riff. I think there's even one about America that's nearly 30 minutes that way.

Just finished this. Holy poo poo, this was even harder to get through than New Moon and Eclipse. I had no idea that was possible The riff was pretty drat hilarious for the first hour or so, then it turned into only being funny every few minutes instead of every line being solid gold. And the movie was just downright painful to watch, so this was more frustrating than it was easy to watch while laughing at.

The guys seem to work their best when the movie has enough going on for them to comment/play off of. Breaking Dawn Part 1 is so incredibly stretched out to suck in more cash with Part 2, for most of the movie nothing is happening. Even less so than New Moon/Eclipse (Did not think this was possible, thanks for proving me wrong, Summit). Which is hilarious the first time, not so much three films later. It's not a bad riff, it's just that the movie feels like even more of a chore to sit through than the others, and you have way too many points where even they can't salvage it.

Here's ten minutes of color outtakes from that memorable MST3k'ed short A Date With Your Family: http://www.archive.org/details/DateWith1950_2 Nothing mind-blowing, but there's something charming and interesting about watching the making of something so odd and trivial. Plus those colors are incredible.

I have a quick question, why did Rifftrax only do part one of Coffee House Rendezvous?

I like to think Rifftrax did the best they could with the new Twilight but god what an awful movie

I don't know, I think the guys do a great job with the inane nonplot fluff. I mean, the wacky vampire/werewolf/baby stuff makes for great material, but I think the funniest parts are when they're making fun of the terrible "light" parts of the movie. Also, that credits sequence really took me back to MST3K. Have they done a full credits riff in any other Rifftrax?

I really liked the new Twilight riffs, especially the credits scene. My god, make sure you watch all the way.

# ? Feb 25, 2012 05:41 |

It's also the Metal Gear Solid 4 of Twilight movies. The credits roll for about a minute, then there's another entire scene, then the rest of the credits roll. So if you're stopping when you first see ending credits, you haven't seen the whole thing.

Yeah, to be honest I always look forward to Twilight solely for the riffs but this one is really hard to slog through. I'm posting this about halfway in and I was contemplating just turning it off but I guess I'll stick around through the credits. I can't believe they split this into two movies.

# ? Feb 25, 2012 17:23 |

This was one of their better riffs. Try to stick around even if you can't stand the movie. And yes, the semi-post-credits scene is well worth sticking around for. It is... Ahahahahaha, remahkable.

Just watched it, I think it's actually better than the Eclipse riff, though it does lose steam toward the end as a movie in which nothing happens turns into a movie where somehow even less is happening.

Watch the first two (Twilight and New Moon) for sure. Those are loving laugh-out-loud hilarious at almost every turn. Eclipse and Breaking Dawn definitely have their moments, but they're much more boring than the first two. After you watch New Moon, you'll think "there's no way a movie can ever be more boring than this", but you'd be surprised

I hope during this new Manos riff that Kevin complains repeatedly about having to sit through this turd for a second time, while Bill just sort of sits in dumbfounded silence at the sheer of Torgo and the Master.

x!te bike posted:You must've missed this whole thing then? Ben Solo's working on a HD remaster. I'm aware of that but they tend to do Riffs of movies that are regularly commercially available(the exception of course being the Star Wars Holiday Special but even that was available on Googlevideo.) It makes more sense that they would get a copy of the remaster and then do a live showing of that.
