My favorite bit was when they pointed out just how hard Volmar was staring at the lever guy. That was some full-on staring.

Something that bugged me about the movie is just how loving stupid Volmar is. He mistakes Droppo for Santa despite knowing BOTH of them. The whole thing would have made a lot more sense if Volmar wasn't involved in the kidnapping section and just left it to henchmen. But that probably would have involved hiring more actors which the movie very obviously didn't have the budget for.

And how could he NOT see Dropo's head gear?

In case you were wondering, that's not Jamie Farr.

Here's the short in it's entirety.

That short felt long but I didn't think it was that long.

My favorite gag was when the Martians were zooming in on the city and Bill does a quiet "I'm walking OVER HERE!"

Something else that's kind of odd about the movie is after they get to Mars about half of the Martian cast just up and vanishes. The last scene with some of the other "Council" guys is when they discover that Droppo was tied up by Volmar. Considering how poorly fitted the Martian costumes were on Volmar's henchman this leads me to consider that the production crew couldn't actually afford more costumes and so they had to reuse ones for the new characters.

Also, for the short I have a feeling a producer was sleeping with the "Fairy Queen." Why else would they hire someone who could barely speak English?

Mirrors are more fun than television.
Besides the riffs, my theater cracked up at how awkwardly absurd the movie got at times. Especially that light touching fight in the ship. I've never been part of such a large "da hell was that?" reaction.

I got this title for free due to my proximity to an idiot who wanted to save $5 on an avatar by having someone else spend $9.95 instead.
I don't know what gag I liked best, but the references to Volmar being Martian Danial Plainview may have been my favorite.

Followed closely by the two guys arguing loudly before the movie started whether Spongebob or My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic were overall better cartoons, after all Spongebob went downhill after two seasons and a movie but Friendship is Magic has had four strong seasons and :suicide:


The Jack-in-the-Box is even more terrifying now that we know he can leave his box. :stare:

The actors make Rod look like Johnny Depp. Rereedrumr, this goddamn thing needs to become a priority in the near future because oh my god...this is painful on a level that Manos only wishes it could achieve. "Hangin' Out With My Family" couldn't improve this piece of poo poo. I mean, if we could weaponize the sheer amount of suck in this movie, it could be used to conquer the world.

quote:

The Doctor is in, and he’s less canonical than ever! Yes, Grand Moff Peter Cushing is back in this follow-up to fan favorite Dr. Who and the Daleks. Those cheerful, not-at-all-soul-crushingly-annoying Daleks have come to Earth, and they’ve brought along the longest, most ridiculous movie title in Rifftrax history. Luckily, the fate of the human race is safe in the hands of Dr. Who (an elderly human, not alien, no powers, possibly not even a doctor), his young granddaughter, and the menagerie of other people he’s chosen to recklessly endanger this time.

The Doc and his crew of allies/victims travel to 2150 AD for reasons that are, somehow, seriously, never explained. Once there, they find humanity dominated and subjugated by a race of heartless authoritarian overlords - so, y’know, a big bold departure for Doctor Who and sci-fi stories in general.

Will they save Earth? Will the title get any longer? Will our dashing hero get home in time for Matlock? Join Mike, Kevin, and Bill to find out in Dr. Who: Daleks etc. etc. so on and so forth AD!

Yeah. I can't see a Rifftrax/HDTGM riff happening. I could easily see Bill or Kevin on HDTGM though. Probably Bill. What movie did he co-write? Hmmm.

Edit: "Meet Dave". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meet_Dave
Not sure if Bill would be into it but probably another movie.
