This was my thought too, but I also want to know “Which writer or cast member would be the least excited to riff Munchie Strikes Back?”, since it sounds like at least two people were absolutely miserable during the riffing process.

Hold on, there’s a second movie? You’re joking, right?
right ?

This is more or less the 2nd (after 1987’s Munchies ), so there are THREE!

I would. But I was also the only one in Tim’s room who had seen Dr. Mordrid multiple times as a kid so I may just have a different constitution.

I would be ecstatic…
Because that means we’d be watching Season 14!

Heh, we might end up getting the answer to that very question if this surfaces in Season 14…
… but any which way, hello, and welcome to the forums!

If we’re determined to uh… go ahead on with this genre of movie, I reiterate my preference for them to get hold of Whiskers .
The trio of movies Rick Sloane made in the 80s - Blood Theatre (1984), The Visitants (1986), and Hobgoblins (1988) - all contain subtle references to each other. For example, McCreedy in Hobgoblins reads a magazine with The Visitants on the cover. The two earlier movies are quite riffable, relatively clean, and the evidence is there that all exist in a shared Rick Sloane Cinematic Universe.
Munchies is more of a traditional Gremlins knockoff. I’ve heard that Strikes Back is worse than Munchie and I’d rather they continue in chronological order before looping back around for that reason.

Absolutely. Make Jonah tackle the sequel!
I dunno. this was a great episode.
but there’s so much else out there to riff!
I’d hate to get stuck in a situation where everyone assumes that sequels will get riffed and get disappointed when they don’t.

In terms of riffing sequels, I’d rather they riff Alien from LA’s sequel first.
I already made my preference clear above. Though a Munchie sequel would pair up well with the sequel to Mr. B. Natural , if that ever turns up.
