Stop the Presses!

February 4th, 2008 by Mike Nelson · 15 Comments

Thanks to reader G Maupin we can all share in the biggest story of the year so far:

Owner of Double Deuce Receives Some Sort of Nun Award

I knew he was getting up in years, and I knew that he passionately loved Dalton, but I DID NOT KNOW that he was an 83 year-old nun! Then again, now that I watch this sample once more, I guess you can see it around the eyes.

 

(God bless that woman for devoting her life to service and for having such an impish and irreverent sense of humor. Did anyone witnessing her vows shout out “I know you!” and crack the rest of them up?)

    So Mike, when do we get to see computer generated versions of Kevin and Bill riffing?

    Now THAT’S something new that’d be worth downloading!

    Then, you can do really crappy flash animated versions of Gypsy, Crow and Tom Servo in adventures on the Satellite of Love with no human companions!

    Oh….wait…..

    never mind….

    We’re going to start small, with clips of Kevin and Bill staring, eyes wide into the camera with impish grins on their faces. They will then flash a “V” sign at the camera. The videos will be wordless. We will post 40 or so of them. They will be identical.

    That should give RiffTrax a shot in the arm!

    There is probably an art site that does that.

    Mike, you guys already did that with The Film Crew at the end of “Killers From Space”.

    Just superimpose the V symbol and you’re golden!

    I can’t help but notice that you’re filled with glee and joy today, Mike. Which can only mean you haven’t yet seen this picture:

    Travolta’s turning into a star baby and it’s terrifying.

    Looks like he’s playing “Data” in the next Star Trek movie…

    What’s with JT’s brown fiberglass doll-hair on top?

    Reply from MikeP on February 4, 2008:

    Bill, why must you pick on his hair? He works hard on his hair, and now you’re hitting it.

    Besides, it’s not hair: it’s felt.

    Awww, Mike…I was disappointed when I saw your computer animated self. It doesn’t do you justice! You’re much cuter than that! ;-)

    But hey, if Rifftrax can’t afford Pixar-level computer animation, can you at least get the animators to give you a big pair of flaming dragon wings or something?

    It might look cool…

    Makes me want to break beer bottles and fight midgets. So when are we going to get the flying toaster screensaver?

    Now the voice of the Beef Council is Shirtless McConaughey, himself. I almost died laughing listening to this:
