The last week of the kickstarter. I wonder if Anaconda is happening. It still misses almost 50K.

Or did Godzilla say something in Japanese before chomping on one of the choppers?

I think they yelled "Itadakimasu!" ("Let's eat!", or, literally, "I humbly receive", according to Wikipedia)

What am I to expect of The Room? Usually I have a pretty good idea of what the movie is before I see it riffed, but I'm blanking on this one. Is it like an episode of Friends written and filmed by the crew of Birdemic?

Also for the first time I won't be able to see the original broadcast. I wonder how many people show up for their encores.

Yes, but add in a few incredibly awkward sexhumping scenes.

Once you see the movie make sure to read "The Disaster Artist" so you can learn how the movie got made.

Thanks. And I just found out my class on May 6 is cancelled. I guess my instructor is a fan.

Please tell me there is a MST3K/RiffTrax treatment of Shock Waves, and Google deliberately hides it from me.

I enjoyed it, though I did dose off for a couple minutes somewhere in the middle. That said,

- Wheaton?
- Eaten!

The Liberty's head's endless street chase culminating with someone yelling "You maniacs!"
were all pretty funny moments. The short didn't disappoint, too.

I thought my theater was unusually full. I think I saw about half as many people when they were riffing The Room.

e: thanks for the slides. I was late, so I didn't see any of those.

Both episodes are available for free on the official MST3K youtube channel. Here's hoping for a better picture quality of the RiffTrax releases.

For those that didn't go to the show they did have one interesting bit of news, they mentioned that the upcoming Rifftrax app is going to have the ability to sync up with movies that are playing in theaters which means they're planning on doing a riff of The Force Awakens ASAP.

Does anyone else experience garbled sound when listening to the riffs through the Rifftrax app? I'm through the first original episode of Star Wars, and just started listening to the second one, and both sound like the actors speak through the liquid in their mouths.

On a sidenote, some of the Rifftrax riffs are available through Google Play of all places. I don't remember seeing them when I was searching for the app a couple weeks ago.

This year's KS is, very likely, about to blow past 4,600 backers today -- just a few days shy of the final 48 hour rush. I wonder if the guys thought that was even possible.

That translates to $318,011 and climbing, BTW.

I wonder what happened on April 1st and 2nd. The campaign contributions were flat for a couple weeks, and then these two days received a significant increase in both pledges and backers (see kicktraq charts).

New stretch goals:

$350,000: an MP3 commentary for the pilot episode of Game of Thrones
$370,000: a special RiffTrax Edition Castleton t-shirt
$390,000: a DVD of the MST3K Reunion Show

With 4 days to go, the campaign is currently closing on $326,000.

I really need to see one for Game of Thrones. I'd love it if they did more of the series!

I'm curious about this one as well, although I think GoT is a bit too tragic for RiffTrax. A certain bonfire in Season 5 comes to mind...

Remember X-Men 1 that they did? That opened with the literal holocaust.

I missed them doing TV shows. I have the two episodes of Heroes from way back, and I know they did Lost. I don't think they did too many more shows.

I did not know they riffed X-Men, and now I want to see that.

A new set of stretch goals is up. This time they are going for the number of backers.

7500: Reunion show Blu-ray choice
8000: Daredevil ep 1 MP3
8500: DVD of Time Chasers show

The thing is messed up, because now I see the original graphic, with Gravity being the first reward, and Blu-ray the second. Doesn't matter anyway, as both rewards are unlocked.

Apparently the Time Chasers DVD is $125 and up. I may need to update, too.

e: Jurassic World MP3 is unlocked. They're past 9500 backers with 13 hours to go. After seeing Joel's campaign pulling cool 5+ mil in funding I shouldn't be surprised, but still this level of support is nothing short of amazing.
