Baddie and Wife got the jewels early so they wouldn't have to split it with the surviving flunkies. They threw a big chunk of meat into the lake to get past the piranhas. However, the original idea behind stocking them in the lake was that the piranha would naturally die out from eating the available food sources after 60 days.

Ah, which explains why Protagonist sabotaged the boat and why the model shoot was still there. I thought "bait them with some meat" had always been the plan.

The RiffTrax of Stone Cold has my new favorite joke as Brian Bosworth and William Forsythe brawl in a strip joint. Kevin: "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the Champagne Room!"

Huh, Gypsy's second riff at the end of Killer Fish doesn't have any audio. Netflix still gives her captions when I turn it on, not sure what happened there.

I'm loving Mac and Me. I saw it as a kid and it was bad then, it's even worse now but the riffing is right up my alley.

Killer Fish: So was the model in on it since the beginning, or only once she got some of the sweet, sweet Six Million Dollar Man lovin'? And if she was in on it since the beginning, was the camera crew with her in on it too, or were they just helpless rubes who were duped?

The scene they use as the stinger fro Pacific Rim is pretty much all you need to know about the movie and the protagonist. I can't remember how they riff on it, but I feel like they just laugh at him.

LividLiquid posted:My ex-partner did this and it was super embarrassing. ¬_¬. Turn down your lights and shut your loving mouth where applicable. I get the concept of rifftrax and mst3k are weird and goony and not mainstream but if I was watching a TV show or movie and started trying to add to their conversation by shouting at them you'd assume autism or schizophrenia or something. I would hope so. That said I think it is hard to bite your tongue and not dogpile in, some people do get competitive with jokes and a bit tryhard, I'm guilty as hell of channeling the show sometimes, but never in a shout down the show way.

Even the people who work on the loving show meticulously script their material beforehand, because off-the-cuff riffing is like, twenty irritating duds to every one decent chuckle. Holy poo poo, nobody paid fourteen loving dollars to hear your hot take.

I live in a more rural area so I tend to see some of the same people at the live rifftrax. There's this family that is so loving awful. The kids don't shut up. The mom laughs like a loving hyena at EVERYTHING even if it's not funny. The dad tosses his own riffs out during the whole thing. I'm at the point where I'm willing to drive an hour to another theater for these things.

rifftrax themselves suggest that you surprise your friends with the riffed version of a film you intend to watch, which i think is pretty jerky

Semi-related, but once a month or so Trace and Frank host an “open-mic riffing” thing at their show and I can’t even imagine how excruciating that must be. Not just unrehearsed amateur riffing, but unrehearsed amateur riffing where the riffer is probably trying extra-hard to make Trace & Frank laugh. I imagine that’s what Hell is like.

For further proof, please attend any convention where there's a "Live MST3K" of some movie a lot of people are fans of. You'll never hear more chuckles to be polite, in a sort of 'I know what they said is an attempt at jocularity, so I will oblige with a weak titter' way. Almost all of them are essentially trying to do improv which is hard enough already.

I like her clothing, makes her fit well as one of the mad scientists. It'd be jarring as hell to see her good looking and not tacky. That woman is a bombshell and they make a point of dressing her down just to fit into the fake cheap aesthetic.
