I hope the exclusive short is that one they included in the Shorts Collection. I was able to attend the train wreck that was the Dinosaur live riff, so I'm still missing that short.

Has anyone bought any of the Rifftrax DVDs they put out. This includes both the dvds from this page and the two VOD movies you can burn (Voodoo Man and Valley of the Dinosaur).

Speaking of that page, the short that was exclusive to Shorts Vol 1 is avaiable for purchase finally.

Wow, the Shake Hands With Danger short was really worth the wait on getting. It's equally on par with One Who Got Fat in the :wtc: department.

Wow, a sold out crowd at the show I went to. Saw a few number of neckbeards, but also some families there too. Loved everything in the show. And like the others, there were hiccups during the short, but other then that it went fine. Also, the Rifftrax site is getting HAMMER right.

Yeah, we did in Fort Worth. I actually got there an hour early, and they were playing some recording of some Hispanic lady singing at a concert for the first half hour.

Highlight of my evening was the morbidly obese bald guy who came in just before the start, made a beeline for the front row, and put up both armrests to accommodate his fat wings.

You had one of those guys too? Also sitting behind him was a girl dressed as Vampira from the movie. She bought some signs or something, but never did anything during the movie.

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.

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.

Oh Rifftrax, the things I do to own the movies. I bought the Titanic riff..and I bought the big three disc set for it. Or I got the first Harry Potter, and somehow found the Philosopher Stone version at Half-Price Books (Canadian Region 1). That said, do I have to download the Pal version of Harry Potter, even through it's in NTSC (because Pal is for Philosopher Stone).

The rifftrax is for the NTSC Sorcerer's Stone version.

Looking at the forum for the first Harry Potter riff, people have confirmed that there is no time difference between the two versions.

Yeah, I dig that. The first 4 books or so were adorable and silly. Then they (Rowling, fans, media) tried to turn that adorable silly world into something more serious and realistic and it just failed on so many levels.

Still wished they'd mention how retarded Quidditch scoring is though.

But anyway. I've decided that my favourite Rifftrax, not including shorts, are the older classics from the 50s and earlier, the B&W ones like House On Haunted Hill and Night Of The Living Dead. Have they done any other ones like these?

I rather like the "Little House of Horrors" Rifftrax when I rented it from Netflix. Had some really good riffs there.

Right now Jack the Giant Killer has double the votes so far.

Also you can load up the short on your portable media player of choice and take it with you. Another thing is that I think the shorts "feel" more like old school MST3K than the full length movie riffs.

Agree, sometimes on MST3K the shorts were the best part of the episode. I can't believe that 100 dollars has been spent on Rifftrax shorts over the past few years. No regrets..they are worth it.

Not that I expect it, but they do show the golden owl, so is this the original? I imagine it has to be that crappy remake (that also featured the owl from the original for no reason at all).

Nice(?) surprise from Netflix. When I found out the next Rifftrax was going to the The Last Airbender, I added it to my queue expecting to get the "long wait" message, but I found out it's being shipped today. Could there be that little demand for this clunker?

Oh good, it's not one of those lame "wait a month" movies. I hate that new policy on a lot of the studio releases.

They ended up streaming the paid short on the free page (I bought the short, but the link they provided never loaded). I do hope they sort it out, because the movie looks really hosed up (Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny).

I really wish the Rifftrax site would tell you in the cart if you already own a track. I accidentally bought the Star Trek 2009 tack twice. Dammit!

I'm excited about this since it's been a looong Christmas tradition of mine to watch as much holiday-related MST3K material as possible (Santa Claus, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, Rifftrax shorts, etc.).

Don't forget the Star Wars Christmas Special and it's wonderful commercials.
