Corridor posted:Hey guys guys, you know how Bobo is from Planet of the Apes (kinda) and there's this episode I just watched where pods make body doubles of the entire cast and try to take over the world (like Invasion of the Body Snatchers) so which movie are the Observer Brain Guys from? They ARE based on a movie, right? I kinda feel like I've seen them before somewhere, but cannot recall. I thought brain guy / observer was supposed to be one of the guys from "Beneath the Planet of the Apes". http://www.kaosradioaustin.org/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=1424

I'd also like to take this opportunity to point out that they could not have made enough jokes about Brain Guy not having a body to satisfy me. BEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! edit:^^No, those guys were parodied at the beginning of "The Deadly Mantis" when they ask Bobo and Peanut to repair their bomb.

Just watched the Rifftrax for Titanic. That was a really funny track, but the best laugh from me was near the start of the movie. *David Warner is shown exiting his car* "I see that the Delta Knights are doing well for themselves."

Plavski posted:Another fine example of Kevin's wonderful voice. I saw this the other day and it was awesome. Pretty sure Kevin is some art history nerd (in addition to having a masters in Theatre), he probably came up with it. He is totally my favourite riffer, even on Rifftrax I think he has all the best lines. Servo boobs Plavski posted:However, he's still a great pianist and gives it a good shot anyway That was adorable. I used to sing that song all the time when I was a kid. I love how the mads are just hanging out chatting with wine glasses. These guys are all so multi-talented makes me feel pretty insignificant.

Update from Bill's twitter, next Rifftrax presents will be Poltergeist, by Janet Varney and Cole Stratton.

This is probably a long shot for me but I really hope they do Leprechaun. It's horror but it's subdued enough for most audiences.

New short up, "Seatbelts: The Life Saving Habit" Yes, it's a safety video (from the 80s) trying to convince people to wear seatbelts.

So just got through Alien, and it's pretty drat good. I'd like to see Bill and Kevin do the other movies in the series as well.

Just watched The Room, which was pretty funny. The Disembodio parts were kind of strange but I guess that's what happens when you have so many sex scenes where there really isn't anything to riff on.

Especially as the two parters take longer to come out that way.

michaeljnelson: Half an hour into "Beverly Hills Chihuahua" and still no Baha Men?! What, I implore you, the hell?! There are certain things I just won't do for Rifftrax... and watching that loving movie is one of them. Please don't waste John Hodgman on that turd! I know, I'm making a lot of assumptions, but damnit, I know you feel my pain too!

There is a few movies I own that I liked, but haven't got the Rifftrax for. Are they worth purchasing. They are Alien, Casino Royale, Iron Man, Star Trek, Dark Knight, and Pirates of the Caribean. Also, I could swore they made a Watchman Rifftrax, but there is no trace of it on their site.

Iron Man falls a little flat simply because it ALREADY takes the piss out of itself, but it's still decent, the rest are pretty great all round. Can't remember the Star Trek one well though.

Star Trek is actually really solid but come to think of it, Pirates doesn't take itself seriously either so isn't the best. But Dark Knight and Alien especially take themselves so drat seriously the riffs are great.

I do recall there being some pretty fantastic riffs on Obadaiah in Iron Man. I'd pick it up anyways, every single Riff has at least a few really good lines.

Star Trek is absolutely amazing, I would recommend getting that one first. "Hi Christopher, I'm Nero" "HI NERO"
