Wait a minute, James. Are you saying you don't like Smallville?   >:D


>covers ears<

Oh, you want to know how I feel about Smallville?  I'll tell you how I feel about it, all right.  The hero of that show ends up being a whiny little bitch who needs to be saved more than anyone else on the show.  And when he has the chance to be a real hero, what does he do?  Cries about Lana and whines about how unfair life is.

Oh, and Lana...let me tell you abou-

Wait, you were being sarcastic, weren't you?  Damn!
Imrahil: Don't care about Riding with Death.

Bob: Turkey.

Action Batch:  Woah, let's all mellow out and rap about this.

I've already submitted a top 10 list, but I scored a couple brand new DVD's at a charity yard sale that have some decent Rifftrax potential.

V For Vendetta
iRobot
Star Wars Ep 3

Not bad for $3 each, eh?

Scrivener

Once, again, my riffing prayers have been answered, meaning I have to update my Top Ten list, again.  The release of "Independence Day" takes away the old #6, but I have a pretty decent idea for the new one.  Herewith, a condensed version of my list (starting with two films that need riffing despite being good):

#12:  The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
#11:  Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (yes, I did write a riff script for this; yes, I plan to get it recorded kinda soon; yes, I still want the guys to do their own version.)
#10:  Eragon Waterworld
#9:  Catwoman
#8:  Days of Thunder
#7:  Armageddon
#6: Independence Day Next
Nicolas Cage provided some of the ripest riffing material ever with The Wicker Man, and this promises still more.  Hollywood ruins yet another Philip K. Dick story, turning it into a dopey action movie with a concluding plot twist so brain-bashingly painful it would make M. Night Shyamalan weep. (Fill in your own joke here.)  You don't need to see two minutes into the future to know how funny this could be.
#5:  Godzilla [1998]
#4:  The da Vinci Code
#3:  Jaws: The Revenge
#2:  Batman and Robin
#1:  Barb Wire (for revenge, and because unlike certain people, Mike Nelson doesn't need surgery to maintain his talent.)

10) Pick your Lundgren
The Legendary Reb Brown's predecessor.  Odd how his movies haven't been covered yet.  I would name one but...I can't think of any of his movies actually having names.  How about that one where he plays the big foreign guy, who shoots at people and blows stuff up?

9) Pick your Van Damme
I'm surprised, with all of the Van Damme cheesefests available on glorious digital DVD these days.  Not one Sudden Death, or Timecop, or that one where he fights in a tournament...Haven't been Riffed yet.  It seems to me a crime.  Much like the aforementioned Lundgren.  It's just not a  tribute to crap cinema without a big dumb foreign guy who hits people's groins.

8) Transformers
Michael Bay must be stopped.

7) Lost in Space
UUUUUHHHHHGGGGGGGG!!!!!

6) Anaconda
J.Lo, Ice Cube, a 40-foot-long-corpse-puking-reptile...And Jon Voight.

5)X-Men 3: The Last Bland
This movie was so embarrassing that the director apologized afterwords.  Enough said.

4) Garbage Pail Kids: The Movie
A movie based off a series of trading cards.  I SMELL OSCAR!  Ironically, I believe that the cast and crew of this movie have all gone on to working in sticker manufacturing plants.

3) Thomas & The Magic Railroad
I am positive this movie is a metaphor for drugs.  Check it out.  The point of the movie is for the conductors find a secret stash of "gold dust" in order to get back to "Shining Time" where everything is happy.  The way the characters freak out when they lose their "gold dust" is quite disturbing by it self.  "I've lost my gold dust.  WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?"  It's also really, really bad, too.  That should make it a candidate.

2) Santa With Muscles
A wonderful tale for the holidays.  A movie about a big dumb MILLIONAIRE, who begins he's an overweight home intruding elf, guy.  He also fights ninjas at one point.  I think.  I'm surprised I haven't seen any Hulk Hogan suggestions on this board before.  Then again, most board members aren't sadists.

1) Gary Oldman is Francis Ford Coppola's Bram Stoker's Dracula...Starring Keanu Reeves
Seriously.  I need Rifftrax' help.  I've been trying to sit through this movie for 15 years.  I love Tom Waits more than most Waits fans. Yet still, neither the Beatnik from Hell, nor Sadie Frost's ample breasts have been able to keep my interest in this movie for more than 30 minutes.  It is hilarious to see Keanu get his penis bitten by vampires', though.

I actually have many others.  But I'm not that mean.

Now.  I don't want to be TOO mean and ugly.  But, why not a Shaq movie?  There, I said it.  Please nobody bludgeon me for this.
