Which Guest Riffers Would You Like To See?

[Nergol]

How about Seth Green?

Or Christopher Guest? (He'd really be a GUEST Riffer! Get it?! *rimshot*)

I fourth Bruce Campbell.

[bratpop]

Mike Myers.
Jack Black.
Michael Richards (if he can refrain from using the N word).
Tom Lennon.

[RVR II]

RVR seriously what the hell is with the giant picture of the Trekker?

You Miss Her... You know you do!

I've got to agree with Seth Green, Will Arnett and Brian Posehn.  And while we're at it, why not throw in Patton Oswalt?  Rifftrax seems right up his alley.  If they can get Weird Al, just about anything is possible.

Oh, and Wil Wheaton.  I can't believe this hasn't happened yet.

Wil Wheaton would be perfect for any TNG Star Trek movie. He'd probably be good on anything, but since he has his own blog (http://www.tvsquad.com/bloggers/wil-wheaton)that reviews TNG episodes, riffing his own work would be natural for him.

After Wil and Weird Al (oh, thank you for that, Mike!), I'm not sure who else I'd want to see/hear . . . maybe Katie Sackhoff if they did the Battlestar Galactica miniseries (please?!). She seems to have a good, sarcastic sense of humor. I just recently saw the Season 3 Gag Reel (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdmo_KCsutI). Really funny stuff. Though the Bush bashing was a little out of left field.

'nuff said.

"Are you going to do that silly voice for the WHOLE Rifftrax?"

"Yes."

[Winboloer]

Patrick Stewart tops my list.


Mike and Picard can go at each other about their time in space.  Could be interesting.

[bratpop]

I just don't know about Bruce Campbell. I really don't.

[gbeenie]

Really? Why not?

[Darth Geek]

Bruce Campbell would be best. Probably the only guy who could be cooler that I am shure Wierd Al will be. Based on their reaction to his scene in Spiderman (they called him The Chin), I think they are fans.

What about Matt Frewer?

[Scott M Davis]

Bruce would be awesome, I would gladly pay like 5 bucks for a Bruce, along with Kevin and Bill rifftrax. But what movie though???

Congo's a popular suggestion, but I think Bruce would be willing to riff almost any movie he's appeared in.

[Scott M Davis]

he was edited out of Congo though wasn't he? Or has it been that long since I've seen it?

I keep seeing the old Power Ranger movies everywhere I go, i think that is some sort of sign.

Well, I'm reluctant to say Bruce just wouldn't be funny in case he finally does a Rifftrax and proves me stupid. I just worry about the fact that "funny personality" doesn't translate to "professional riffer." And the fact that, despite the voice work, if you took most cartoons and removed the cartoon part, they would be terribly unfunny. Though I'd like to hear Ash riff on Resident Evil, even that would get old after about 30 minutes. "Yes. Okay. We get it. You kill zombies better than they do."

You notice they've chosen past guests and movies quite carefully. Troll 2 isn't going to be on too many top tens. Neither would the original Wonka movie. Nobody ever heard of Moon... Space... what was it called? Al however has to be funny in voice alone for his career to even work. He's even done "riffing" over certain videos before. Frankly, nobody knows how good Bruce Campbell would be. We just wish he'd be as perfect as his chin. What if he's NOT?

Again I say Michael Richards. He was on the UHF commentary and he was even funnier than Al. Al was working from a script and Michael totally riffprovised it. I'd have no doubts about him riffing.
