Riff Raff Theater: Speed (The Live Show)

[GregMcduck]

Well, just watched Speed for the first time. I'm gonna enjoy this.

Yeah, it's a doozie.

All Matrix and The Net jokes are fair game (and richly deserved).

[Ortega]

I just snagged my copy, so i should have a script done in the next few days.  I probably won't be able to make it to the live show, but i'll still submit some riffs.   Dennis Hopper has it comin".  Oh,  the Blue Velvet jokes i forsee!

[Chaos]

Sweet!

Just to be clear, though, this WILL be a Riff Raff Theater mp3 release in addition to being a live show. So you will still have the opportunity to hear your jokes performed, just minus the live show exclusive content (which is centered around audience participation).

All of the riffs we put together for the purpose of having a live show will be released as commentary tracks as well, right around the same time as the live show (probably shortly afterwards, so nobody is spoiled at the live show and to give an extra incentive to attend, for those who can).

By the way, has anyone started with their Speed riffs yet?

If you do, here's your signature badge (quote me to get the code):

Any chance of someone taping the live show and putting it on the ole gootube?

[Chaos]

Absolutely not, sorry.

Speed is still copyrighted material (even though it sucks), and it would be against the law to post video footage of the movie online. It would also violate our contract with the Englert.

We WILL be posting some footage of the pre- and post- show activities, but there will be no footage of the live show itself available. If you want to experience the fun of Riff Raff Theater live, you're going to have to make the trip to Iowa.

Just as a note, due to the schedule that we've painted ourselves into a corner with, I'm extending the deadline on Speed submissions until January 14th.

Not even the audience participation stuff where there is no movie?  Or is that in the contract too.

[ChrisHanel]

The audience participation will be mostly happening during the movie, so, no.

[bratpop]

How about you film it, but paint over the screen with green and then greenscreen in a puppet show version of the movie complete with dialogue and then overdub the riff parts with re-recorded riffs?

[Junkyard]

Yeah, c'mon, Chris, don't be lazy!

The QuipTracks team began writing for Speed today, and we've plowed through the first twenty minutes. I have to say, I am impressed with our jokes so far, not to sound cocky or anything. We have alot of them, too. This is a surprisingly riffable film.
Oh, I also think we'll be able to make it to the live show.

[James of LinHood]

If I can make it to the live riffing of Speed should I speed all the way to Iowa?
