The cosmology in Stiches is kind of weird because the/a devil can do a deal for your soul when you're under duress (that the/a devil directly puts you into) and it totally counts for some reason.

Ah, they operate under the same loose definition as the djinn from Wishmaster. (Which I think would be a fun riff, but maybe it's too graphic?)

Also it seems like they've added TV ratings bugs to everything.

IIRC there was an article on Playboy's website that went into the history of Manos and touched on that guy and how he spent a couple of years running around claiming he owned the copyright to Manos.

It's no longer available on Playboy's site, but the article is archived here.

No, this sequel comes from Jackey Neyman Jones, who played the little girl in the original Manos and reprises the role as an adult in this sequel, which also features her real-life father who played the Master. I haven't seen it and I'm sure it sucks, but if anyone should be allowed to cash in on loving Manos, I'm glad it's them.

curiousCat posted:I wish we had a place where they did this poo poo with newer movies, like the garbage smurfs movie It'd be nice, but I guess it didn't make economic sense given that they make like dozens of VoDs per just-the-jokes riffs (and I think most of those have been kickstarter stretch goals). It's a shame because the app actually kind of works like it's supposed to now.

I'm guessing the stuff where they can have movie + riffs makes the most money, which is why they don't trip over themselves to do Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor or something similar.

Also, honestly, a big problem they were having for years before they started doing VODs? Big hollywood blockbusters are really loving samey and really bleed together

Yeah, the best stuff they did in their MP3-only phase were the weird idiosyncratic movies like Wicker Man and Battlefield Earth. Movies that made odd choices and ran with them. It’s a lot harder to bite into something like Iron Man or Hunger Games where they’re all about playing it safe.

Eh, why go for Pearl Harbor when Transformers Revenge of the Fallen is right there in front of you? I mean it's a Transformers movie made during a writers strike so it's particularly incoherent, with none of the incompetent 'charm' of say Avatar or Battlefield Earth. Just a great riff and definitely a miss if you usually only go for VODs.

Vengeance of the Deadquote:With a title like Vengeance of the Dead, you might assume it's an Italian zombie flick from the 70s, or the placeholder title for the first draft of a George Romero screenplay.

They just updated their Roku app to run better. It also has some free riffs on there.

I feel like you'd have to attach a ball and chain to get the guys to get them to watch another Transformers movie and even then there's a risk they would attempt to gnaw off their own foot at the ankle.

Moe_Rahn posted:Fun In Balloonland is on there too, I've watched it twice in the last week. Setting Up a Room, not yet. Admittedly I think it was part of one of the shorts collections live shows so it probably wouldn't be on there. It stays with you, though. Even the description. "This short is about two women setting up a kindergarten classroom. It lasts for 27 minutes."

It's also named dropped in Whizzo. "Please note that this is twice as long as setting up a room." I don't think it's possible to watch Whizzo sober.
