The Mads Are Back

Well, now we’ve all seen the Mylar short (or will see it soon if you weren’t watching live.) What was weird to me was that Frank did a callback to the bread short in the Mylar short, but I didn’t notice any callbacks to “Design for Dreaming” in the Motorama short.

The male lead in A Touch Of Magic looks like Bill Nye and Neil Patrick Harris had a baby.

Also, from now on I want a dollar credit every time Frank brings up Chris Christie. :stuck_out_tongue:

Happy birthday Chris, however old you may be.

Just finished watching it and it was great! The Mylar short felt like an eternity, definite Deep Hurting vibes there.
I also loved the mentions of the Rifftrax Meat Raffle and Ruth Larson in the grocery short, as well as Trace’s MST mentions in A Touch of Magic. That short was also riffed in the 2017 Rifftrax Summer Shorts Live Show as well.

Picked up one of Frank’s non-fiction books before the Dumb Industry sale came to an end tonight.

I’m having it personalized, but I just put my first name in there because I didn’t know what else to have him write (“To Jake, my bestest pal and greatest fan, thank you for all the creative inspiration” - Frank Conniff) :grinning:

BTW, I gave this one a go, I liked the premise.

But was tempted by Billy Gillis: 7 Year Old Screenwriter, if I like the other, I’ll try more.
