TWENTY QUESTIONS - 5/3/07

[PlayMSTie]

What is it about the line "NELL!" that never fails to crack me up? It did on MST3K and it still does. 

From the old Dudly Do-Right cartoons.   His girlfriend was named Nell and whenever he spoke to her or sensed she was in danger he would yell in this nasely voice "NELL!".

Yeah, I know where it's from (but thanks for the picture! ) I was just saying I always find it funny, in whatever context they use it.

Okay, Lemming Howard, we need you to tell us what you're recording off In Demand this week, so we know what the next RiffTrax is going to be!

NEVER SAW IT, BUT HEARD IT WAS GOD-AWFUL!
I'LL JUST WATCH THIS ONE WITH THE RIFFTRAX ON IT..
(Just a note: Magic DVD Ripper that you can purchase for under $40, has done well for those DVD shrink couldn't do.. And Pinnacle Studio 9 does GR8 adding the audio trax to the movie & both onto DVD)

[sarcasm_made_Easy]

[RVR II]

JUST QUICKER TO TYPE THIS WAY..
Sorry, I'll be more polite.

Poor, poor Jeremy Irons! He's just not meant to be in Fantasy Films I guess. He embarassed himself in DandD pretty badly. All in all I just can't wait for this Riff Trax. It'll give me an excuse to rent it at Blockbuster.

SORRY!! DIDN'T MEAN TO MAKE MY PRESENCE BE-KNOWN SO ABRUPTLY..
I just heard that Eragon was a Terrible Movie through local reliable sources; kind've like a premonition - I Never Saw It.
GUESS THAT'S WHAT MADE ME YELL! I'll be OK..

In my Young Author Self-Esteem Happy Place, I like to think that Mike and Kevin, who are actual writers, are taking this on not only because the movie was crap, but because the "writer" of the "book" basically wrote a vaugely unhorrible but clearly derivative self-insertion fanfic and his well-connected parents got it published.  When I first started reading about this book, I swear I thought it was pronounced "E-ragon," as though it were about a dragon with a Yahoo! account, which would at least have been original.  I hate the fact that this kid will get one more red cent for his steaming pile of plagiarism when people buy the DVD, even if it's for the sole purpose of deflating him.  Come on, everybody, go Netflix or eBay on this one!

Breathe in, breathe out, bitter on.

I know you're referring to Dungeons & Dragons, but I read that as "Dandy" at first. I imagine Jeremy Irons would acquit himself much better in a movie called Dandy...

[sarcasm_made_Easy]

"E-ragon," as though it were about a dragon with a Yahoo! account

*sarcasm curses loudly as he erases all 600 pages of his attempted novel.
