RVR II


Moleman

That would be so awesome to hear him do his "stepping on leaves" sound effect when someone's walking.  There are all kinds of opportunities for stuff like that.  He actually is a comedian (or at least was, don't know what he does now) and not just "that guy who does those sound effects" so its likely he'd be able to come up with much of his own material and help make a funny Rifftrax.

This would of course never happen but it would be fun to get someone who does either great voices or sound effects in a riff.  Even if they don't even help write the riff.  Its like in the 300 rifftrax how one of the guys does the narrators voice and gets it pretty darn close.  It makes it way funnier.

TheBatman

I dunno, if they asked Winslow to do it, I could see him going for it. If Seth Green can get him for Robot Chicken, then I don't think they'd have a problem getting him for a Rifftrax.

Lsnake

Probably Eddie Murphy. He can be exceptionally skilled at imitating people, plus he simply got a great voice and laugh.

Otherwise, Dan Castellaneta could potentially be awesome.

Jerry Seinfeld. In the Seinfeld episode at the Chinese Restaurant Jerry is going to go see Plan 9 and make funny comments. I wonder if Jerry really is an MST3K and Rifftrax fan?


RoninFox

That was my first thought when I saw that episode too.  "I can't go to a bad movie alone.  What, am I going to make sarcastic comments to myself?"

Which was exactly the reason the solo Mike Rifftrax just seem to be missing something. I still think the Predator 'trax is hilarious, but it's so much better when the riffer has someone to work off of.

Granted, although I don't see George, Elaine or Kramer chiming in themselves.

Joel Hodgson and Jerry Seinfeld were friends back in the 80's when they were doing stand-up. Joel even appeared in the special, "Jerry Seinfeld: Stand-Up Confidential". I don't know if they still keep in touch though. As far as I know he has no connection to the Rifftrax guys, so there's probably a better chance of Jerry doing a cameo on a Cinematic Titanic DVD.

I remember hearing about that, now. The Joel was involved with writing with Seinfeld for some of his very early stuff.

Then again, maybe Jerry could guest riff on Bee Movie. He said for years that he didn't want to do a movie because most of them suck. Then he finally does one, and it sucks.

Parturition Squeeze

John Cleese.  All three riffers with John Cleese.  And they should do a movie that's part of a series so they might be able to convince him to come back.
Towel, please.

I strongly suggest: Tom Scharpling, host of the Best Show on WFMU. 

Please make this happen!  It would be incredible and would be a huge boost for Rifftrax!  Tom, first of all, is hilarious, and has a really loyal following.  See friendsoftom.com or check out an episode at the archives here:
