Once Upon A Honeymoon is one of the funniest shorts they ever did.

News update? What's the playlist been? I see teenagers from outer space just started. I saw Cabot's bony a** on screen earlier. Anyone see who the new mad is? And who is the red haired women on the kickstarter splash page?

i am about to buy the star wars holiday special from the rifftrax website and i realized that i've been hearing about how cheap the shorts are, so i might as well get some of those too! any suggestions for which shorts i should get?

GO!

Any fans of Cave Dwellers, Outlaw of Gor, Deathstalker and Quest of the Delta Knights should get the newest Rifftrax VOD, Sword and the Sorcerer. It's pretty much those four movies put together.

Friends. *stares blankly at screen for 38 minutes* I've avoided the forum lately because I didn't want to "kill the vibe" - but today, I have nowhere else to go.

My brain, in a nutshell: I have some big decisions to make, all of which are based on so many possibilities and contingencies. A change is needed, yes. But some decisions are held back by other variables that have yet to be seen. I know, makes perfect sense, right?

My head hurts. My body aches. I feel like I am going to collapse. There is so much I want/need/must say and do; but it's all turmoil in my head. I've sunk into something new and terrifying and I feel like I'm drowning.

Part of me wants to just word vomit all over your screen and go over every gruesome detail of the past decade and why I feel the way I do right now and blah blah blarrrgh. The other part of me wants to crawl into bed and never come out from under the covers. And then there's "Middle Me". He wants change. He wants to take action. He realizes that this is his chance to start his life over. Hell, he's turning 30 in a couple of months. This is the perfect time to start anew.

But he can't - at least, not right now. Not in the present state.

So there you have it. I'm not sure what you guys can do with this info. I guess I just need some kind of interaction. Some advice. Fuck, tell me a joke even. I don't know.

A few other folks on here have mentioned their "projects" -- starting with the earliest existing KTMA episode and working up to Diabolik, watching all the original unriffed versions of the movies -- and I've always just enjoyed picking episodes based on my mood or a certain occasion, with no real "project" in mind other than watching Joike'n'the Bots shred some horrible-assed old movies.

But, aaaaaanyway... some weeks back, when the Big YouTube Blackout was really starting to bite, I decided it'd be a good idea to fire up my trusty YouTube downloader add-on and nab copies of all the episodes I didn't have copies of yet, and make up my mind later if I'd keep them in rotation or not.

So, here I am with the biggest pile of as-yet-unwatched episodes since my spectacular flaming re-entry into the fandom about three years ago. They're mostly SciFi-era stuff -- a large part of it from Season 10 -- with a little scattering of CC and Joel shows. Some of them I haven't seen since they first aired, some not since they went out of reruns; some of the Season 10 stuff I actually missed entirely as SciFi was jerking their time slot around really badly, iirc. So, basically, I'm watching these episodes for the first time.

Sweet! Looks like I have a project: For The Very First Time, Again.

From the binge download of about a month ago, I grabbed:
-Space Travelers (via DAP Central torrent, without the interlacing artifact issues)
-Being From Another Planet
-Alien From L.A.
-Giant Spider Invasion
-Hobgoblins
-Overdrawn At The Memory Bank
-Future War
-Blood Waters Of Dr. Z
-Boggy Creek II
-Final Justice
-It Lives By Night

I've taken my time leisurely crunching these down, watching them late at night when I'm not working or sketching and can just sit back, spark one up, and savor a "new" episode of MST3K. I've watched half of these at least twice so far, to see if there's any new instant favorites in here, and I can tell it's gonna be some serious fun.

Here's what I've seen so far:
-Space Travelers
-Being From Another Planet
-Giant Spider Invasion
-Blood Waters Of Dr. Z
-Boggy Creek II
-It Lives By Night

Any recommendations from the rest?

And it is... (drum roll) Giant Spider Invasion!
Hell, how can you go wrong with Alan Hale, Barbara Hale, and a crappy fake giant spider, directed by the legend himself, Bill Rebane, a man whose very name is gold to me -- OK, comedy gold, but, still -- and which quickly earned a solid spot in rotation. This episode is a gift that keeps on giving -- the credit sequence design strangely reminiscent of Monster A Go-Go, the trademark Rebane "dark" visual style and poor sound, Alan Hale actually speaking the phrase "little buddy" in the dialogue, the merciless needling of Wisconsin and Packer fans -- VAAAAAAA-AAAANNNNNNCE!

There's even a new favorite final riff in this one: as they're leaving the theater, right before door no. 1 slams on them, Nelson's low, ominous intonation: "go Packers...!"
