So you're saying we won't be able to get him to riff Mathew 5-7, the Sermon on the Mount?

The suggestions so far are pretty solid. Here are a few more.

At Your Fingertips, Grass is obligatory.

Ghost Rider is about a ghost of a girl who died in a bus crash lecturing a boy on proper bus safety. Then the bus almost drives off a cliff.

Zlateh the goat has a kid drinking goat milk from the source.

The shorts One Turkey, Two Turkey; and Monkey See have interesting musical numbers. I'd go with Monkey See personally.

More Dangerous than Dynamite is weird to modern sensibilities where we don't wash clothes with gasoline.

Paper and I, This is Hormel, and Three Magic Words are demented in their own ways. I don't know how you'd choose from the three of them.

Edit: Come to think of it, you could go with three shorter lists. A top 10 "Why was this made?" list, and top 10 "What were the writers thinking?" list, and top 10 "WTF!" list. For example, This is Hormel and The Domestic Behavior of Pigs are definitely "WTF" but it's easy to tell why they were made and what the writers were thinking.

When it comes to Bridget and Mary Jo shorts, it's hard to narrow things down. Maybe consider adding The Relaxed Wife + Consuming Women and Flash that Smile to a list? The former is a drug advertisement, the latter is about dancing your way to proper dental hygiene.

(heavy sigh) Norman Krasner, the original short (Not the first one riffed but I think the Norman short). A short film about a man who needs to poop but can't afford it, finds out the guy in the next stall is DTF after feeling him up, wipes his rear end with the Mona Lisa, and is forever imprisoned.

I don't know if it is anywhere close to the funniest riff but this is certainly a strange short. And why is it black and white in 1974?!

They were cheap short films that HBO commissioned as time filler.

The discounts look like they'd add to 30% off but it's slightly less because of the way math works. E.g., 10-30% = 7. ((10-15%)-10%)-5% = 7.27

I keep forgetting that and then wind up confused when the riffs cost slightly more than I'd calculated in my head. Because it seems like it'd be so straightforward.

Doublepost, I finally finished Day of the Animal. I'm incredibly disappointed with the lack of a five-minute bear fight between Leslie Neilson and a bear. But it delivered a solid number of animal punches per minute.

The movie codes and school code should work for a few more days. A 15%, 10%, and 5% discount. Which somehow works out to less than a 30% discount because math is hard.
