Rank a Riff

[RoninFox]

I was very impressed by this riff, 9/10.

I had never seen the movie before so I watched it Friday night.   I was amazed at how perfect a film it was...... 10/10.

I watched the riff Saturday and was very pleased to see that the boys can riff on a geat film and make it funny.

Though I haven't had time to finish the whole riff yet, this is summing up my thoughts so far very well.  I'll vote once I get enough time to watch the whole thing.

[Invisible NanoGhost]

I will watch this a few more times before I vote, but my initial impression is that it's either a 9 or a 10.  I was eager to see how well the three a-Riffers could do against a classic like this, and they did a great job.

I should note that I've watched the movie enough times that I have much of it already memorized, so the riff didn't distract me from remembering how great the movie is.

hilarious--9/10---and I love this movie, too!

[Insert Coin(s) to Continue]

This was a fantastic riff. Great job, guys!

[ScottotD]

I think it's a funny riff but what I like about it the most is the fact they obviously hold the movie is high regard so they had to work a little for the jokes and there was none of the cheap "this movie sucks", "that guy's annoying" shtick they often fall into.   I'd definitely be up for more 'classics' being riff-fodder.

The riffing does come off like teenagers in a theater who ruin a movie with their smart ass remarks. Never before in the history of riffing have I experienced that sensation.... but Casablanca is not a pizza that's was in need of bacon.

Makes a change from my feeling like the guys coming across as parents making fun of a movie that's not aimed at them I guess.

My feeling was more along the lines that I wanted to "shush" the guys so I could concentrate on the film, lol. I still gave it a favorable write up at the website...   Casablnaca Review

I know, I'm saying I've felt the same way for many riffs.  Just not this one.

[MartyS (Gromit)]

Hard one to rate with the movie being so good....  No real side splitters for me, but good laughs every 5 minutes or so...  Riff had a happy vibe to it.  So an 8..

I'd love to see them do "Te Have And Have Not", one of my favorite old movies.

Finally watched Casablanca riffed last night.

We all thought it was great. My wife had been a bit skeptical about it, I think, but our guest choose it as the movie we'd watch and we all laughed pretty solidly.

Having said that, I still feel like a bad movie riffed is more fun than a good movie riffed.

Like Jaws, for example, which again we found really funny, it still doesn't quite have the same... charm?

But still, funny is funny and it was funny.

Good work guys!

I loved this one. I wonder if it was not very successful saleswise as there hasn't been another Rifftrax Challenge movie since.

I have no idea but I get the feeling that is wasn't super successful. I hope they eventually get around to riffing Citizen Kane, but I'm not holding my breath.

I would also like to see that.

Citizen Kane would be good. I'm hoping for The Wizard of Oz, myself.

RoninFox was planning on a riff for Wizard of Oz, but that might be put on hold for other matters.

8/10

Never saw the movie before this, though I have watch MST Overdrawn at the Memory Bank about ten times or so, lol.

I have no problem with classics or b/w movies. I love It's a Wonderful Life and quite a few other classics (okay, mostly Christmas classics).

I could tell the movie lived up to the hype, the movie was obviously very good. Course, I already knew half the dialog (I didn't realize just how much of this movie was over-quoted and referenced!), and half the plot. I didn't find myself getting attached to the movie, but I will definately agree it is a very good movie. I gotta say though... the french anthem scene threw me right out of the movie. I mean... French pride?! I laughed my ass off at that more than any of the riffs. French pride. ROFLMAO

I found I actually enjoyed the atmosphere of the riff. Usually with a crap-fest you can tell the guys are in pain... as are the riff viewers. But with this, it was obvious they liked the movie and felt comfortable. It had the air of a couple guys sitting around late on a weekend night on some couches hanging out with a movie just playing cause it was already on, and they just yell out random crap and laugh and fart and mess around. It made for a more ... pleasant experience than usual.

Now... I have to watch Overdrawn at the Memory Bank again, lol.
