In a comment on Kickstarter they said it would likely be early November.
2nd opinion timeāwhoās got a good ear? I canāt find any written confirmation of who was in these shorts, but Iām convinced that the voice of the jack-oā-lantern in Halloween Safety 2 was done the guy who played Ned Blanford in Improving Your Pronunciation. Yes/no/maybe?
Itās banned in the UK; the BBFC refused to give it a certificate in the aftermath of the James Bulger murder.
No Kevin? Interesting. I hope all is well.
HackāoāLantern is one odd, ill-judged, weird mess. Of course Iāll be buying it!
A while back Bill was out for Covid and we got Mike, Kevin, and Bridget instead. It would have been cool if she or Mary Jo had filled in.
Word from a Rifftrax staffer is that Kevin is OK and just couldnāt make this one. Should be back for the next one.
Sounds like a scheduling conflict.
Just watched this Australian educational short about how to survive the dangers of the wilderness, or as they call it, āthe bush.ā
Iām here to tell you, if youāve ever referred to your fun stuff as such in conversation, you can have a pretty good time riffing this one by yourself. Just turn to your crotch and react to the various assertions about āthe bushā with āYa hear that?ā and āWell, you are a handfulā and āWhat have you been doing?!?!ā for I-crack-me-up-laughs galore.
Thereās a bluntness to that short that you donāt get in many American shorts. āSee these idiots? They wonāt last the night because they were stupid. Donāt be them.ā
Bought a ton since the last time I was around, including the surrealness that is killer klown Tiny Tim in Blood Harvest, Rutger Hauerās Split Second, Revenge of Doctor X, NeutrĆ³n, the āJust the Jokesā of the entire Twilight saga and a few Bridget/MJP shorts.
I did have a chance to watch Copper Mountain and, whoaā¦what WAS with all the āLodiā, and all of the other musical performances for that matter? Why did they give multiple performances to the guy who eventually replaced Peter Cetera in Chicago? Whose idea was it to cast Alan Thicke and Jim Carrey as āBEST BUDSā? The world may never knowā¦but thereās one thing I know, Iāll never watch this one unriffed!
Has anyone noticed that the latest update to the Roku app seems to have taken away the option to start a video over from the beginning?
Heads up, Traxxers: itās Return of Swamp Thing day.
ETA: Or maybe it was yesterday, but the email went out today. 6/half dozen.
Australians pride themselves on their forthright speech; it even extends to their politics: Unparliamentary language: Australian edition ā Strong Language
Just picked it up, I think MST has spoiled me, itās just not a good Friday without a new riff to enjoy.
The short āDannyās Dental Dateā was funny, and full of puppet nightmare fuel.
If you want to get themely with that sweet, sweet discount, I recommend the election shorts they did for 2020! (Fear not. They are only very minimally āpolitical.ā)
Donāt forget Patriotism. How else can you learn to care for others, to respect others weāll learn how to care for, to respect our country?
Iām so tempted, but the Black Friday sale is coming up soon and Iām holding out for that.
