MSTies who don't regularly visit the Satellite News website? (http://www.mst3kinfo.com) RiffTrax and Film Crew links are/were on there when they first started up the systems, including a vote on which of four movies the FC were to riff (Killers from Space is the next,and Wild Women of Wongo is coming out soon). Also, Mike and the 'bots did an appearance on Cheap Seats (ESPN Classic series that has hosts riffing various sports events) some time ago (which I have recorded and put on DVD along with some other interesting programs).

And yeah, you have to pay for RiffTrax. A few bucks for entertainment?! C'mon. Sorry if everything on the Internet isn't free. I tried them out a while back with "The Fifth Element," one of my favorite stupid movies (fascinating to watch, just a really silly plot). It worked rather well. My CD player ran slow, so I had to pause the movie every now and then to catch up. The early episodes have just one heckler; more recent ones have more, so I presume they are funnier. I've been wanting to do another. I first heard about RiffTrax in a Mac magazine in Jan or Feb. And yeah, you have to pay for RiffTrax. A few bucks for entertainment?! C’mon.

Not sure yet if it's worth $2.99 a movie. It’s not mentioned above, but apparently you have to PAY to hear the Rifftrax. Not sure yet if it’s worth $2.99 a movie.

I heard of "The Film Crew", though never looked at it. But I'll make the time, now that I've seen it here! Glad I’m not the only one that knows of Rifftrax.

They made Star Wars: Phantom Menace actually watchable. They also do live shows. There was one here in the Bay Area a couple months ago, which I didn't hear about until it was over. Boo.

The Golden Raspberries are given out for Worst Picture, Worst Actor, etc. The party consists of renting that year's winner and sitting around with some improv theater types giving it the MST3k treatment. You either love going to a movie with me or you hate it :) I have hosted a Golden Raspberry Party for many years.
