The rest of you can feel free to ignore it. Go back to Conor’s delightful post, if you must.

Some of you may have heard that Casablanca will be our next RiffTrax (it comes out on Tuesday.) What some of you might not know is that back in 8th grade, my friend Andrew wrote a song about the exotic destination that the movie is set in: Morocco. I would like to share with [...]

What’s so Damn Funny?!
May 26th, 2009 by Kevin Murphy · 26 Comments
Jonathan Coulton is what’s so damn funny. Paul and Storm are what’s so damn funny. Put them together, on a Rifftrax Presents Super-Cool Special Riff of the iconic geekwork TRON, and the funny risks breaching its containment field and releasing a wave of hyperfunny that could threaten countless galaxies… with laughter.
Here’s a sample of what [...]

It’s all connected, man!

Photographic proof! The Powers That Be are all in cahoots, and all corrupt!
Right out of camera range: big Hollywood producers, scions of the Corn industry, and Lord Voldemort (who works part-time for Corn as well! SO CONNECTED!!).

We have some titles that are guaranteed to surprise you. More shorts, more old moldy movies, more bleeding edge new movies, [...]

Meet the Sheriff
May 12th, 2009 by Conor Lastowka · 31 Comments
Recognize this guy? He’s Leon Unczur and yesterday he celebrated his first year anniversary serving as the Sheriff of Nottingham.
The modern day Sheriff’s role is a bit different than this guy:
Unlike old Bushel-Britches here, Sheriff Unczur’s roles focus less on extorting taxes from widow rabbits and dogs wearing full leg casts and more on tourism, [...]

I love going to our local pan-Asian supermarket, United Noodles, in Minneapolis. Besides having great sushi supplies, wonderful roast duck, fresh burdock root, lotus chips, quail eggs, duck eggs and tofu about a hundred ways, I always find something I’ve never seen nor heard of before. To wit:
