Welcome home!

[deathstalker]

The masters have returned! My delight at Messers Nelson, Murphy and Corbett's new endeavor can't really be measured on any human scale. I've already purchased a bunch of these trax and hopefully will round out the collection soon. Admittedly, I could not bring myself to actually buy "Trek V" (god, it's even worse than I remember it) and I ordered "Cocktail" through On Demand (some people actually LIKED that dog, apparently), but god help me when I saw "Top Gun" on sale for $7, I actually purchased it just because of the availability of Rifftraxx. I'm planning a holiday celebration featuring the boys' version of "Fellowship" as well -- I intend to spread the word of Rifftrax as far and wide as possible.

I'm Deathstalker, as in "Deathstalker and the Warriors from Hell" -- there were no less than THREE other Deathstalker movies that didn't appear on MST3k; given the new site's focus on major flicks and blockbusters, it's probably unlikely we'll get any riffs for them, but I can dream, can't I? I'm an IT professional and freelance writer in Portland, OR, and have been watching MST3k almost since the stone age (my tapes and DVDs are almost worn out, if that's possible).

My friends and I are rooting for you guys big-time -- we hope that Rifftrax.com is a success and we will continue to hear your smartass commentaries for a long time to come. It's like old times again; I'm even considering pasting a silhouette of you guys at the bottom of the screen while I watch Keep up the good work, and continue to keep those Hollywood showbiz types humble! We're looking forward to the next big sendup! Huzzah!

Welcome deathstalker!!!

I think you will be happy with RiffTrax. Its not MST 2.0 ...but it sure fills the void.

There is quite a bit of good material in the Tech Support section on how to re-author your DVD's with the RiffTrax audio...all in one.

So enjoy some hor'dourves, champaigne and mingle amungst the other Riffies.
and remember..."Potatoes are what we eat!"

Its not MST 2.0

welcome deathstalker, you will discover that the people really like to say the above quote. It's like the self-righteous buzz quote for the Rifftrax fan.

note that Mike himself has never said "Rifftrax is not MST3k 2.0" but for some reason people on the board do quote it like gospel


so, I'm gonna go out on a limb and start proclaiming everywhere I go

RIFFTRAX IS MST3K 2.0!!! REJOICE!

[Pak-Man]

Yeah it's kinda like how if you compare the new He-Man series to the old He-Man series and all the fans shout out, "IT'S NOT HE-MAN 2.0!"

Except that it actually happens. :^)

We have an aversion to drawing similarities to awesome TV shows around here for some reason.

From the FAQ thread:
http://www.rifftrax.com/smf/index.php?topic=1048.0

Q:  Is RiffTrax MST3K 2.0?

A:  No.  RiffTrax is RiffTrax.

Its not just gospel. Its the Law


Is that the mask from Crash Bandicoot?

I'm even considering pasting a silhouette of you guys at the bottom of the screen while I watch

[WouTar]

Welcome.

The Warriors from Hell turned out to be a bunch of losers -- they couldn't hold their liquor (it kept leaking out) and they were always hanging around my place, borrowing money and watching pay-per-view porn. I finally got rid of them, right before we did Deathstalker IV.
