von Braun posted:I bought a couple of riffs earlier this month and got a $5 worth of gift certificates which I thought was pretty cool. But now I bought some more riffs and got $4 worth of gift certificates, but didn't redeem my previous certificate to shop for thinking I could save them up and now it seems like the previous ones disappeared from my account? Do I have to use them when I put in an ordered? I checked the Help page but didn't see anything. It redeems it automatically.

So did anyone watch the extended riff for Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny?

Mike has been confronted with too many goons lately, apparently.Mike Nelson's Twitter posted:Fascinating fact: the word "celibate" is derived from the Latin term for "how do you like my neck beard?". Also, the new VOD is Christmas With Rifftrax which seems to be like last year's (?) Christmas Short Live Show. Only not live.

You can watch Magic Christmas Tree on Hulu, and it sounds like they've added more stuff in addition to that. Magic Christmas Tree is pretty good/bad, including a sequence where a bunch of people chase after their cars.

I ended up picking up the entire VOD for the hell of it. I'm about to check out Magic Christmas Tree and you guys can probably just save your $10 and check the Hulu link. The animated short they watch is pretty great, albeit too short (and incredibly racist), but the rest is them watching old toy commercials like at Rifftrax Live. It's a little amusing, but little more. They do try something a little different where they watch an ad for a train set that's under the guise of "The Joe DiMaggio Show". Instead of riffing on it, Bill leads them into a really enthusiastic commentary. So yeah, the opening 15 minutes that isn't Magic Christmas Tree isn't worth the money considering the rest of the VOD is on Hulu.

Magic Christmas Tree is an hour long, and is all sorts of what the gently caress, probably on par with the short about Nothing in pure "why the gently caress did someone make this?", but yeah, it does sound like the same concept. It's almost like someone noticed that the Wizard of Oz was somehow a thanksgiving movie, and decided to make a christmas themed movie based on the same "it might have just been a dream" plot, but they got lost somewhere and decided to give the kid the stupid powers from Pod People for an hour, and also a giant who kidnaps kids and makes them his slave. Also the worst lawnmower based scene ever committed to film.

Just saw Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny for the first time with some of my family. My mom sat in during some of it. I just... I don't know what I watched but me and brother literally had this look on our face at each other .I'd say it's worth the  admission just for the baffling experience. Can this even qualify as a movie? I am struggling to find much of anything that had a coherent element to it. My mom was baffled and amazed of what she saw. Everyone of course (including myself) got a huge laugh from this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Umezn9sD2cYBesides the movie itself the riffing was pretty top quality and only really suffered during certain bits. I however need to recover from this and I don't see myself watching it again any time soon. This will probably be a Christmas tradition now.

muscles like this? posted:I watched that "Magic Christmas Tree" riff and man alive that was a freaking weird movie. Especially how the kid spends months in his weird dream sequence. I'm still trying to piece together the logic of everything... - Kid goes to mess with old witch lady - Ends up getting roped into rescuing her cat - Falls out of tree, enters mundane dream world - Eventually finds magic Christmas tree, gains the powers of a god - Kidnaps Santa - Is taught a "lesson" by almost being forced into slavery - Wakes up, is given cookies, learns a valuable lesson about... something? What I love most about this movie is just how nasty everyone is to each other. The fat kid's a jerk, the husband and wife can't stop arguing, the tree's a total dick... and I guess the whole point of the production is to scare kids into being good?

I love that the "one-hour" limitation on the kid's god-like abilities is imposed by the kid himself. Never give a dumb husky boy genie-like magic wishes. He'll waste them all in the most ridiculous fashion.

The Harry Potter riffs are some of my favorites. I've heard the riff of Goblet of Fire so many times that it doesn't feel right when I see the movie without it. Then again, I think every Rifftrax is one of my favorites. I don't think I've heard a single bad riff yet. But I'm about to venture into Mike-only territory for the first time and I'm a little nervous. I like the idea of 3 guys going to a movie and making fun of it, because that's the sort of thing I do with my friends. Just one riffer is more like when a woman asks me to watch a movie with her that I don't want to see at all, but I do it anyway because I want to spend time with that particular lady and I have to pretend like I enjoyed the film if I want to see her again, so I make jokes to myself in order to pass the time. (Look at that giant awful run-on sentence I just made.) Except that there's no lady in my room right now and it's just me watching Over The Top.

How strange - I really struggled through Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny originally because it felt sluggish and trippy in a bad way, but watching it for a second time a year later I thoroughly enjoyed it. Perhaps because I knew what was coming and so didn't have to comprehend the madness, I was just able to listen to the riffs. I'll definitely be pulling that out every Christmas as a tradition. Just a shame nobody will watch it with me

Just got the Magic Christmas Tree as download. I was a bit disappointed that they didn't riff on the first two commercials, but the line "Wow, racism used to come in convenient wind-up form" won me over for terrible, terrible lines to haunt me along with Kevin's joke about his exercise in Warriors of the Wasteland.

Yeah this was weird, seeing freaky stuff going on on-screen but there being silence from the guys. Although I was quite busy being baffled that the Bash one and Tight Squeeze were ever considered "games" or indeed "fun". Bash was sure to end with the other kid's teeth being knocked out and Tight Squeeze just looks like a very humiliating way to find out which of your friends are the fattest.

Take that, add $400,000,000, and include a 1 hour montage of an obnoxious dickhole job-hunting in an imaginary world of spaced-out lunatics that don't act remotely human. And then have Leonard Nimoy say "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" for a few extra million.

On the other hand, I have purchased Birdemic and am now watching it for the 4th time with the riff going. If you can make it through the opening credits, which seem to last 10-15 minutes, you're in for good times. What does it take to win your business today? Basic speaking skills? OH OH.
