You might just believe that George Cosmatos was brought in by studios when stars wanted to call the shots on set!

I wondered idly if he directed Tombstone because that's a movie I always heard was secret directed by Kurt Russell and... sure enough, yes.

Now I'm going to hold the image that this scene is some weird sexual role play that couple have until I get to watch the movie and no doubt get disappointed that it's more boring than that.

I wouldn't make a guy with a Confederate cap a part of my thing but I'm not shaming

The movie has a real tone issue where it just gets extra goofy at points.

Also am I crazy or is the robot control device just a toy phaser?

Actor your age (emotional maturity) seems like a short without much going on… And it really doesn’t!

If only it have the emotional nuance have something like shy guy or the positively Pinter-esque “what to do on a date.”

Shy Guy is definitely one of my top tier shorts. From the weirdness of "guys at this school don't wear suits every day to class" to the multiple jokes about being drugged at transitions it is just a good time.

This one has an obvious moral but they clearly spent a lot of time thinking about it, and the production design is great.

Yes, they did and it probably included something terrible like the racist cabbie from Time Chaser or something else too sexist or violent they felt like they could make jokes about.

That's not how they cut films. They edit out random unoffensive things just to get the runtime down.

Tuckers Women had a musical interlude edited out because it didn't fit the movie, it slowed things down, and there weren't any good jokes to make.

Rifftrax posted:

For example: if a movie includes objectionable scenes of extreme violence, sexual assault, gratuitous nudity, or something else that we think would detract from our viewers' ability to actually enjoy the riffing (by "taking you out of the movie" due to its awfulness), we will make edits where appropriate. The same holds true for very slow, very boring scenes: there are only so many jokes we can make about things like that, and so we think our removing bits like these from the movie is doing it - and the audience - a favor! (Fun fact: Rick Sloane told us he felt our slightly-edited-for-pacing version of Hobgoblins was better than his original cut.)

TIL Lash LaRue not only had a popular comic book series but starred in porn in the 1970s too. What the actual heck.


e: Ok I did some more digging and Lash didn't know this was a porno until after he finished shooting and was so disgusted that he turned to missionary (lol) work as repentance!
