So I bought the new Merlin's Shop Rifftrax. It's good, but I probably still prefer the MST Epsiode. It's one of my favorites. The weird thing is how it uses a completely different cut of the movie. It cuts some scenes out but adds new ones.

Doesn't the husband die in the original non-Merlin version of the movie in the second half.

Should I spend my hard-earned Christmas coupon on Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom or Ready Player One? Both movies I couldn't stand to watch otherwise.

They've riffed The Wizard, Super Mario Bros., and Street Fighter. Now, they've just released a riff of Double Dragon!

Double Dragon

The beloved arcade beat ‘em up is now a movie! Kind of! The video game Double Dragon had a complex plot: “Bad guys punch girl so good guy punches bad guys.” Not exactly the kind of thing that fills 90 minutes of screen time, unless you punch really slowly. But this thin gruel allowed for the...

Time for another Rifftrax Live Kickstarter. This year, they're only doing one show: The Return of Swamp Thing on August 18.

Just watched The Rifftrax of Things.

It's my fourth time watching this movie and I still barely understand what's going on that movie.

I just watched Things. I don't know what I just saw. There are no words to describe it.

I always said Monster a Go-Go was the worst movie I had ever seen, but Things makes it look like a masterpiece.

The second movie written by the writer of Things, Wicked World, is even more amazing. He took over directing duties for that one. He also edited it. (and Things) It has possibly the worst, and strangest, editing in history.

Eek I haven't watched the Potter ones in ages but I know some of them were a bit "early" in the Rifftrax canon and they could be a bit mean spirited in those days. Hopefully they weren't too bad if he did end up watching them

I really could just be misremembering, but I honestly don't remember them ever going real hard on child actors, even during the MST3K days.

Mmm I don't know, its been a decade at least since I watched one of them but I wanna say i remember them going in pretty hard on Ron. Tbh i don't think I could sit through the movies again to find out though

Does anyone else have trouble with the Rifftrax video player constantly buffering? I have to turn the quality all the way down to 270 or 360p so it doesn't buffer every 15 seconds.

I hope they release a new Christmas movie tomorrow. I watched The Monster's Christmas lat night and it sucked. It's the second worst Christmas thing they've done.

How did I not know that they now have a subscription service?

www.rifftrax.com

I fell a bit behind of late, despite being there and loving the guys since the early Mike only days, but this allows me to catch up and enjoy old classics. An absolute bargain for just $6 a month, although an Apple TV app would be nice.

There is a really nice sale going on Rifftrax right now with spending $50 (post coupon) you get a $17 gift card along with 20% off the order. Along with another coupon you can stack for a free Megaforce mp3. Also the Rifftrax game is up on LimitedRunGames and other sites with a coupon for two free movies which is a pretty good deal.

My mom just died about 45 minutes ago as I was watching Rifftrax Live: Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. I probably won't be able to watch that movie again for a while.

This year's Christmas Special is a doozy...

The Christmas Martian

Our most beloved Christmas movies all have that one line that makes you feel all warm and cozy inside, no matter how many times you’ve heard it: “That’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.” “You’ll shoot your eye out, kid!” “Merry Christmas you wonderful old building and loan!” “My name...

I remember seeing the new riff, Santa and the Three Bears, on TV when I was a kid. I had no idea Pirates World was involved with it.

Haha, yeah, I've already bought it and downloaded it, though I haven't had a chance to watch it yet. It just feels like somehow Disney will take it away, though I know I'm being paranoid. Still.... it is Disney.

Watched it: they really did a good job with it. Some real classic lines. I forgot how demented this cartoon is and how much of an asshole Mickey was too. I have to wonder if the innate cruelty in this film reflected the world of 1928 or if it was just Disney; was the world simply a much harsher place then?

I bought it as soon as I saw the email. Disney shouldn't be able to force them to take it down, but you never know. I'm amazed the Star Wars Holiday Special hasn't been taken down.

It's time for Grimtrax!

GrimTrax has it all: Old women. VERY old women. Factory workers getting maimed so badly it would make Chuck Hamlin blush (if he wasn't already dead. From maiming.) Alcoholic NBA fans. Kids who get ignored to death. And a short that we actually recorded way back in 2012 and decided not to release until now because WE DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU COULD TAKE IT!

I'll probably buy it, but I don't know if I'll watch it anytime soon. I'm not really in the right headspace for something like that right now.

Love these folks. But, I swear they either did, or hosted someone else's riff of, that Holywood DragonBall Movie? Or was that just me misremembering?
