You all get a bulk of Coronet shorts cheap or something?

I just noticed that most all of the past group of shorts released have been Coronet shots. You all get a truck load of them cheap? You buy in bulk or something? Or do they simply make the best shorts to mock?

All the following were Coronet:

Parts of Speech
Geography of your Community
Reading: Basic Skills
Beginning responsibility
Summer is an Adventure


That is the last five shorts and ALL of them are Coronet? Not complaining or anthing, just find it odd that five straight shorts are all made by the same people.

Coronet's library is just, simply put, MASSIVE! They, along with Castle Films, just show up no matter how hard you try to find other stuff.
Any issues with the RiffTrax main page should be directed to support@rifftrax.com Attempts to engage with me directly about such matters will result in ridicule.

They're also completely free to watch un-riffed at archive.org.  Coronet are some of the easiest to mock, but my favourite company is Jam Handy.  They're actually really good!

Coronet made several of the MST3K shorts too, shouldn't be that surprising.  Did you notice the mass of Castle Films they put on the Christmas show?  (Turned into an awesome running joke too)

I'm just saying it is a weird coincidence that there are 5 in a row.. Hope we get more Jam Handy, Bailey Films, etc...

 :D I'm just imagining the guys going to a grocery store of movies to pick out the next rifftrax. Shorts in bulk, seperate bins for Coronet, Castle Films, Jam Handy, etc. Special displays for the newest blockbuster movies. Uwe boll's movies are in the back near the bathrooms.  An entire aisle devoted to Roger Corman. And DUNE is continually out of stock.

Someone might just be watching through the Coronet ones (might be sorted that way on archive?) and found a bunch of ones they liked.
