Found a Battlefield Earth torrent as I sailed the perilous tubes of the internets that had a very peculiar description: commentary by Mike Nelson. Very skeptic, I proceeded to download, gasp in awed joy, laugh my butt off, and purchase the Riff after jubilantly informing my family (we're all big MST3K fans)  with the sort of passion reserved for the Second Coming.

It was pretty awesome.

The same sort of thing happened to me. I was just cruising the net one day and heard that Mike and the guys were putting out riffs again and I had to come buy and see for myself. 3 weeks later I have a dozen rifftrax in my account and am constantly looking around for good prices on the DVDs of the rifftrax I don't have.

My brother in-law called and told me about rifftrax, he had heard about it on the radio i think.  Lucky too, my MST3K tapes I had recorded from TV were wearing out. Rifftrax has so many movies now, I only bring out the tapes when I'm feeling nostalgic.  Huge thanks to Mike, Kevin and Bill the world wouldn't be nearly as funny without them.

I came home one day, and my roommate was watching Fantastic 4: Rise of the Silver Surfer, and I heard "The Silver Surfer is the smoke monster from Lost!...If in 5 years the real explanation isn't that lame, I'll buy you a beer". I then proceeded to ask questions, and soon I was downloading like a fiend. What a great way to expand on the MST3K genre. I had always said the show would benefit from riffing big-budget movies, as well as the little ones.

I clicked on a banner ad (the first time ever!) while on StreamingSoundtracks.com.
Is today my birthday?!  Because I have been wishing for new stuff from you guys ever since MST3K went off the air! Not only do I get new commentaries, but with recent movies, too! Thank you! You're all geniuses!

I honestly can't remember where I first heard about Rifftrax, but I've been a MST3k fan since about 1992, so I guess it was only a matter of time!

Me I found riftrax through an ad on a web comic. Think it was Something Positive, not sure though. Any ways I've been lurking on the forums ever since till I guess right now.

My friend called me a couple nights ago, said he'd got something really cool for me. He said it was better than a pony. He was so right. The emoticons offered for use do not have big enough grins to accurately portray the sheer joy of finding this. And good it happened when it did, because I just got a Mac, but hadn't yet got rid of my PC - which henceforth shall be known as the Rifftrax Player Deluxe.

Hmm I don't know, I mean a pony would be pretty cool too....

Better yet if it was a pony that was good at making fun of movies.

You can normally find me over at OurDarkSkies.com, but only if you like telescopes. :D

I started writing my own riffs for a tv show called Supernatural as a joke and there was a banner ad on my livejournal page for the site. I clicked on it and got addicted. I had watched MST3K with my Dad back when it was on Scifi and thanks to youtube I've rediscovered my love for the show.
