Meh. You want my money? Then make the clip of some of your past work show more/funnier. That wasn't good enough for my handout.

Wow, I didn't expect ANN to be releasing news on Rifftrax (although I understand the Godzilla segment makes it significant). Smile

Yeah, it's a bit of a stretch, and watching the RT guys pick on 90's geek-movies got old by the third Twilight or Transformers movies.
(And having them spam my e-mail literally every day with "Only 3-2-1 more days until we riff Sharknado!" isn't endearing me to their post-series "creativity" any either.)

I saved my money for the last farewell Cinematic Titanic show in our city. Sad

I'm fan of MST3K, i like the some of the early Rifftrax stuff that was done. Godzilla is by far one their more famous movies series to riff.

I hope i can see it to be able really judge if the guys have lost their touch or not.

Again, check out some of the Cinematic Titanic videos if RT is all you've heard of--
Mike, Kevin & Bill are a fairground band, but CT reunited the "smart" performers who left before the Season 6 "Brain drain".

Oh, and they also go back to the show's concept of doing strange obscure movies, not easy pop-culture-punchline targets:
