IIRC they only say 'gently caress' once in "Starship Troopers" and its at the very end. The nudity will be a problem if they want to keep it 'clean' (in quotes because the movie has a ton of people getting decapitated, ripped limb-from-limb, impaled, and shot in gory fashion).

So now not only are they not showing Twilight, but they're neutering certain scenes in the movie they decided to do instead in order to keep it family friendly?

It's really not a big deal, there are like three total seconds of boobs in the entire movie (I just rewatched it a couple days ago). Though I can't really figure out how they're going to make it any funnier, because it's already one of the funniest movies I've ever seen (and also one of the best).

Cinematic Titanic already did the best and most hilarious nudity censoring ever with "the breast blimp", so Rifftrax better seriously raise the bar.

Oh No my nudity that I can easily get anywhere on the internet literally by looking up almost anything ever and nothing at all is stopping me from watching the unrated version of the movie on my own if this actually did some how bother me! HOW CAN I GO ON WITHOUT MY NUDITY!

Haha, I mean I'll still go see it. I just meant that they raised tons of money and they keep getting further and further away from what people donated that money for. It's RiffTrax though, so I'm sure it'll be fun anyway.

The first two lines of the loving post posted:Some of you have asked (and many we're sure are just understandably curious) if we're doing an edited version of Starship Troopers. We are not. Later on in the same post posted:We believe the three of us up there adding our commentary undercuts the impact of the material quite a bit. But we will also take special care to comedically mute those few moments that earns it its R, and creatively make it as PG-13 as possible.

I'm really bummed about Super Mario Bros. Every other movie they could do as a regular mp3 riff no problem because the DVD's and blurays are readily available. SMB could only be done as a live show or VOD because the DVD is long out of print and there's no way enough people would hunt it down on eBay to watch it. In short, drat you Disney.

Kojiro posted:It's not like they didn't make it super clear that they might not get Twilight in the first place. It's a shame they didn't, but also not a surprise. What's confusing to me is that didn't they say that if they didn't get Twilight, they'd start working their way down their list of Worst Movies of All Time? Because Starship Troopers isn't even on that list.

What I assumed was "comedically mute" meant they'd talk over it like they did for The Room. If they take away Dina Meyer's naked I will rage! Back to something less desperate, I just watched the SF Sketchfest Shorts and it was great even for someone who had seen some of the shorts. What I will say is don't splurge for the HD version because there's nothing HD about this. It's all low light high ISO footage mixed with 1960s shorts so don't waste the $2 you could spend buying Buffalo Rider.

Also, seriously, how is I Know Who Killed Me not on that list? I would give so much money to a kickstarter toward riffing that movie, it's the right mix of absurdity and incompetence that's practically made for it. Everyone should see it exactly once. As evidence for my case, I present this episode of How Did This Get Made that a goon pointed me toward a few weeks back. raditts fucked around with this message at 22:27 on Jun 6, 2013 |

I gave up long ago on trying to explain to people why Starship Troopers is almost literally a perfect film (for what it set out to accomplish). There seems to just be this big divide between people who "get it" and people who insist there was nothing to "get". Looking at that list, I can't believe I haven't gotten the Wicker Man riff (because I didn't know it existed), and I'm really surprised they haven't done Catwoman yet.

It's not on there probably because StarShip Troopers is an absolutely loving excellent film what the hell is wrong with you? StarShip Troopers 2 was terrible and StarShip Troopers 3 has maybe two good laughs but ultimately fails at delivering the same fantastic satirical comedy the first does so drat well.

I first saw Starship Troopers in the theater as a random "me and my buddy are high, it's noon, there's gently caress-all to do so let's go see a movie". It was fantastic. Days like those are also what resulted in me seeing Batman and Robin and Good Will Hunting, probably the two worst films I've seen in the theater. I think Independence Day happened because of that too, but that movie was alright.

If they were to do Catwoman I'd hope Mary Jo comes in for it like she did for Glitter.

I'm running out of riff's I'm interested in, and am dangerously close to watching 3 The Fast and The Furious movies just so I can watch their riff of the 4th one without being behind on the movie they're riffing.

The F&F movies have nothing to do with each other except Michelle Rodriguez died in either 2 or 3 and came back in 5 or 6, because she was "undercover" for some crime thing, when in actuality she had other movie scripts at the time. Other than that they have no common plot thread at all.

It's more the possibly not getting jokes that assume some small knowledge of the previous movies, as is often the case in many of there other riffs of late number movies in a series. (usually they did also riff the earlier ones with those though).

Walked around at work today and mainly sang to myself "Ice Cream Bunny, that Ice Cream Bunny, he's made of ice cream...and he's a bunny!" I was going to fly up north in September to go watch Metallica: Through The Never in IMAX 3D, but I can only afford one trip and I'm thinking I'll go watch the riff of Starship Troopers instead. Especially since I don't know if/when I'll be able to watch it if I don't.

I remember seeing Firehead on a terrible sci fi collection with Future Force and Future Zone, so I am hoping that might be a sign they made a deal with a distributor and we'll see The Cyberstalking and the other stuff on that collection soon. Amusingly enough, I think Space Mutiny was on that set as well.
