So how'd they do?

So how'd they do?

Uh.. I 'hope' to answer that in 3-5 days..

Hope the horses don't die on the way to my house.  Can't wait for this to get here.

My download keeps fluctuating, bouncing all around from "7 Hours Left" to "36 Hours Left", and now it's at "1 Hour Left". I hope the third is a bit closer to truth than the second, otherwise I might as well have just ordered the DVD.

Yeah, the EZTakes download process is a little buggy.

I think their poor site is just being hammered now.   

I am waiting on my snail mail..... and goofy shirt.

My download finally finished and I watched it.

It's pretty good. A nice 3-minute credits sequence at the beginning where they get to make fun of names (Oh how I missed that from MST3K), and lots of other great riffs. They were a bit lighter on the visual gags than last time, but there was a Thunderdome! But no "Beyond Thunderdome" unless I missed it. The ending is SOOO slow though, and it's mostly the movie's fault. There's like 5 minutes of the same shot with these two people in spacesuits doing absolutely nothing. And the plot is real depressing for the most part. But good stuff! At least as good as the first one.

and goofy shirt.

Again, Black is just too damned hot to wear in the summer time!

There are 'other colors' in the spectrum that could be chosen from so until they discover all those other colors, I'll Pass

I got shirt too, and I like black.  It's slimming RVR.

If I went on vacations to colder places, I'd have both CT & RT shirts, but Southern Mexico's climate is either Hot, or 'Fuckin Hell' Hot!

Which reminds me: Hurry Up with the RiffTrax shirt contest already so I can order my 'other than black' shirt(s)!!

Keeping Cool takes Precedence than slimming in my book

And with the mental image of RVR II's tighty whities getting all bunched up, I will now go to the bathroom to heave.

Well, I know how you 'west coast types' are always 3 hours behind us Eastern Time Zone folks ..

Sooo... When can I place my Order already??

Finally, the download is complete, almost 24 hours later.

Now it's "Assembling DVD".

As soon as that's done, I'll finally watch it and share my thoughts, if any.

[doggans]

Overall, I thought it was a bit of a step up from "Oozing Skull", much as I enjoyed that one as well. I think this would be a better episode for starting someone off on the series, partly just because there's an intro sequence. There were several laugh-out-loud (or at least chuckle-out-loud) moments for me:

All in all, a very enjoyable episode from an incredibly poorly-made film. I look forward to the next one.
