Though I will say their recent take on Santa Claus—one of Mike's earliest episodes, and probably my favorite—didn't disappoint. There's just a lot of new jokes to tell in the 20-25 years since these episodes aired.

Having those insane scenes that were originally cut for time were a big plus on that one.

There were some hilarious things added to the live version of The Room that weren't in the original riff, namely "hip dick". What I really want them to do some day is Disco Godfather, because holy poo poo that movie.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:Same here yeah, it's an amazing film. can't wait to hear how a couple of the jokes play out tonight i was always rather confused as to why Drafthouse Films had the licensing for the film the way it was once the picked it up. I remember talking to the Alamo guys waaay back and they seemed to really love the MST3K/Rifftrax folks, and I figured they would have cut them a super-awesome deal. I always got the impression that they sort of picked the film up BECAUSE of them. At either rate... things look good now, and maybe this means we'll be seeing Dangerous Men next year!

Paste Magazine just put out an interview with Y.K. Kim about Miami Connection and tonight's Rifftrax. This guy is like the anti-Tommy Wiseau. quote:Paste: The actors in it, they were all your students? What did they think of the finished movie? quote:Paste: So what do you think of groups like RiffTrax that mock a film like Miami Connection for entertainment, then? Will you be watching?

YK is a cool dude. I had the chance to talk to him a few years back. I still remember the day when I saw YK's name and face on bill bartolone's webpage. It was like a merging of rifftrax and found footage festival. I'll have to upload some bill bartolone tapes from the 80s one of these days...they're insanely hilarious/bad.

Miami Connection was good but sorta what I've said about doing cult movies - they hold up on their own so there's a ceiling of comedy you're gonna hit. That said - fuckin' Measurement Man tho.

Yeah a great bad movie is made with heart and this clearly is for a different reason than The Room. I would buy YK Kim a beer. Friends through eternity, loyalty, honesty.
