New Rifftrax- Jan 17- THE WIZARD OF OZ

[Darth Geek]

Nice.  I picked up the Bluray for $3.00 on Black Friday.  How often is a Blu-ray cheaper than the riff itself?

What's funny is when a BluRay is cheaper than the DVD of the same movie.

Sample!

"Juggalos, Bronies and Twi-hards OH MY!"

I love the idea of each of those groups being horrified to be associated with one another.

[Sugar Ray Dodge]

This is gonna be so awesome.

BTW RiffTrax bosses... I am not working for the next two days so if you wanna slip me an early release I can check to make sure it syncs with the blu-ray.... Just saying....

And on the eve of the release comes word that the last surviving female Munchkin has passed away.

FINALLY an mp3 release! (My wallet thanks you!)

[MrTorso]

WOOT!  It will be out at MIDNIGHT EST!!!

I think this is a good MP3 choice because I cant think of a single person I know that doesn't have this movie already. For this same reason I think they should do E.T. that would be friggin awesome.

Looks like I'll be doing the old fashioned sync with an mp3 player and speakers for this one, since I only have it on Blu-Ray I won't be able to use riffplayer.

Cinester Theater's riff of E.T. was fantastic!

I'll note that I don't own either title.  (At least until the announcement of a riff, which caused me to buy "Oz.") I do own Birdemic on Blu-Ray though, as my priorities are really messed up.

I have ET on VHS, never got it on DVD or Blu-Ray, for some reason I've never had an urge to watch it again during the last 20 years....

In this same vein, I gotta say that I feel kinda bad for Ronin Fox Trax right now. The Oz riff is probably the best iRiff I've consumed, and now it will be overshadowed. Not that I'm not excited for the RiffTrax, totally the opposite, but I feel like it's the purpose of iRiff's to fill in the gaps in regards to what RiffTrax don't riff themselves, and RFT occupied the space reserved for the Wizard of Oz more than adequately. RiffTrax MUST take priority over iRiffs in this regard, no question about it, but it's still kinda sad that the RFT version will retreat into obscurity. I think that if an official RiffTrax for Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter is ever released, I would be super bummed about it because I like occupying that place in the riffing canon, but at the same time I'd like to think I wouldn't be terribly upset with MKB for doing it. They are, after all, the main attraction.
