I have no idea how they come up with enought material for ten hour movies like this.    What a tribute to the writers!

I gave this a solid 9.

TheUnabeefer

I gave it a 6... I don't know why, but I wasn't that thrilled by it all.  There were some pretty funny parts, but I think the immense drag of the movie just brought it down a bit.  Made it even more difficult to actually enjoy the riffing.

I dunno, maybe after a couple more viewings I'll re-rank it.
...and there he was, reigning supreme at number two.  The One... The Only... The Unabeefer.

I gave it a six. A few great jokes, but not consistent.
FINE

Dr. Whopoopeepee

I just gave it a six too.  I don't know what everyone liked about this one.  I sometimes get tired of the constant references to other films they've riffed, but it doesn't bother me too much if they are in the context of the scene.  There were a few times in this one where the reference had no context, and didn't make any sense to me.  Maybe I'm missing something: a spaceship is flying away and someone says something about stopping by Hogwarts.  Also there was a line about Over the Top that seemed a little weird, something like "that's what I call over the top" or something. 
I have loved all the riffs from the last few months except Avatar, but I don't only complain, I'm gonna go give the Goblet o' Fire one a 9 (or a 9.5 if I can) right now!

Too much low brow garbage (poop, piss, dragon semen--- you guys are little obsessed with the boldily fluids on this one), not enough of the clever, observational stuff that I prefer.

I gave it another shot tonight (I'm packing for a move and this was the only thing I had in my laptop bag. So it was this, or stare at the walls) Still pretty m'eh overall, though I felt it was stronger down the stretch - I enjoyed the references there (Ax-Men, Crusty the Clown, Sandford and Son, etc).

To go out on a positive... When a pilot tells GI-jerk that the Navii were firing on them, Bill adds, "and they've brought out a small boy with a sling"  - ha, ha - I don't know why, but ever since the days of MST, I've always liked a good Bible related joke (ala, my favorite riff in Jack Frost).

Good Riff but it still couldn't keep me in the movie. Avatar was mindless painful drivel. After the first 2 hours and I realized they still had act 3... I had to turn it off and watch the next day. I was even drunk... I had low expectations, but this was too much. Nothing really made any sense... the plot was completely stolen from dozens of other storys.... I can't think of a single redeeming quality. Not since Transformers has anything stunk this bad. I'd rather have watched a 3 hour podrace.

The jokes were good, I'd have voted 10 if it was good enough to keep me in for act III. Anything that could make this watchable would be a 10.

The Manatee

One of the best ones. The movie has just the right combination of senselessness and delusions of grandeur for riffing.

"Got anything you want me to genocide up?" is a sentence I wish I could work into conversation more often.
