Title: Find John G. Kill him. Then post your favorite lines.
Post by: Courtney on August 12, 2008, 07:01:05 PM
In whatever order you're comfortable with, obviously.

The line towards the beginning re: Carrie Anne Moss "you can't decide whether or not I'm hot, can you?" (so true), ALL the callback lines throughout (Bea Arthur, the various things Leonard's forgotten how to do ("If I recall, this is how you drink a glass of water" and "I've forgotten how to wash my own genitals)), a lovely "oh fer cute" from Mike, the guys' reaction to CAM's profanity-laden tirade, and of course, my favorite running joke in all of Rifftrax...



This was a great one.  Well done guys!

I loved the running gag about the raccoon. I wish they had done more with that.

Yeah that comes right after the last line in the sample. We wanted to include that but would have had to bleep it... :(

Definately my favorite.  Some other good ones:

"We now return to Clean Slate" - When this movie first came out I imediately thought of this under apprediated Dana Carvy flick. 
"He should watch Lost, it'll probably make sense to him"
"It's not easy being Santa's girlfriend"
"Look at him, he's part greyhound"
"Lenny graduated from the Midvale School for the gifted" - a Gary Larson joke, well done Sirs.

I just about did a spit take on that one.. That one really killed me.

I probably laughed the hardest at Kevin's extended singing of the score.

  Just hearing Dis sing again cracked me up.  The intensity of his commitment is amazing.
  Has the brave little toaster ever performed at karaoke nights?  What's his song of choice?

That was great. And the one about the pop tarts, and there was one other running backwards gag (which I forget now  ;D ).

SCORE! on the Midvale School for the Gifted riff! My favorite Far Side cartoon of all time!

"Clams don't juggle."

". . . We need a more graceful solution."
"Trained swans."

"We have something in common."
"We both were in goofy movies with Hugo Weaving."

And the running gags about pants and shirts.

In regards to Sammy whatshisname, the other guy with the memory problem.:

"He keeps saying his name is Werner Brandeis."

Or something like that.

I'm like "woah.  Did they just do a Sneakers reference?"

Hearing Bill and Mike go back and forth about the rules of the movie--that run was hilarious.

God, I'm so late on this...but in any case...my favorite lines...

"When I looked into [Sammy's] eyes, I thought I saw recognition..."
"He kept saying 'PHIL? PHIL CONNORS?!'"

Epic Groundhog Day/Stephen Tobolowsky reference  ;D

I remember this fondly, and I think I need to watch it again.  I watched it during the week I was shotgunning about a dozen Rifftrax which I had neglected to purchase over the summer previous.

The movie sticks with me because it's so unlike anything they've ever done.  It's not a classic.  It's not old MST3K style megacheese.  It's not a recently released blockbuster.  It's just a movie that isn't too obscure or too well known.  It's remarkably average, and that's such an odd choice for them.  I'd love to see more movies like that done.

"The gun is for when he leads his Bible study group through the issue of works or grace."  Ha!  I'm a nerd AND a PK, so I really enjoyed that line.

"I'm a reincarnation initiator. "  Too funny

Also all the allusions to Bea Arthur!

I recently watched this again, and I do like it.  The movie is good enough to be enjoyable in it's own right, but then the riffed version is also fun and entertaining.  I don't think I had heard of this movie before they riffed it, and I'm glad I picked it up.

"Oh, there's a hole in my arm where all the money goes!"

"We now return to 'Clean Slate.'"

The riffing on that whole bit where Sammy Jenkins is is hilarious in its cruelty.
