I just finished the Chistmas Shorts live DVD. I saw this twice in the theaters and love seeing it again with the crowd reactions. Can't wait for the next live event. Does anybody know what the three lines they missed because of the laughter from "I need you tonight."?

The Dark Knight -second viewing

I didn't laugh as much as I did the first time around but this is still a solid trax that doesn't seem to get much love.  Never understood the folks who thought it was taboo to riff this.  Sure, it's a good film, but any movie with guys in capes, animal masks, and clown makeup should be fair game for riffing.  And the ultra dark, depressing tone of the movie makes it even more ripe for ridicule in my book.

This one is a good riff and I too liked laughing at it to break the tension the film creates.

And I just watched JURASSIC PARK. So funny and brilliant. "I just put hardwood floors down in my ducts."

Paranormal  Activity
Ok, I'll admit it, the first few times I watched this movie I actually liked it. But after watching it with the Rifftrax I finally realized how boring it actually is. I'm guessing it's due to the fact that the other times I had seen it I was mostly just talking with friends and not really paying attention except for the parts where something actually happens. When I watched it with RT I realized I hadn't really seen the first half of the "movie". Seriously, I don't remember any of that happening. Good track though.

Troll 2 - Some really great lines in this.  It's hard for me to remember that this has good replay value (for whatever reason), but it does.  Having them point out the logical loopholes I didn't pick up on are particularly delightful.  Maybe my favorite line is (paraphrasing) "Please consult the FAQ for which abstract concepts you can and cannot piss on."   :D

Beowulf.  This one's a sleeper, IMO.  Whenever someone wants to try a RT I look for a newish one they've not seen yet or something I see as a no-fail classic, like Raiders of the Lost Ark.  Sunday I remembered the B-man an we enjoyed the hell out of it.  And it's not a bad movie, cheesy-adventure-wise.

I'm going to make a request here:

Fourthed. Not like 1/4, but +1 more equaling 4.

I love the Beowulf riff too.  Lots of big laughs and an ideal film for them.  Never understood why this one wasn't more popular.

"AND BY THE WAY, I DRANK ALL OUR COFFEE!"

I love Beowulf (both the movie and the riff).

Casablanca

This was okay.  Some really funny moments but lots of average ones as well.  The 'Norm' jokes have been funny in previous trax but they really didn't work here.  I don't believe that any film is off-limits riff-wise, but this just didn't seem as riffable as other classic films they've done such as Raiders, Jaws, Lord of the Rings, and the early Star Wars films. 

TTYT

Finally got to Paranormal Activity. All I can say is: No Lamia jokes? Seriously? C'mon, guys!
