CT005: Santa Claus Conquers the Martians!!!

[RVR II]

Got my DVD yesterday and watched it last night..

They all did a GR8 Job on it (There were also some GR8 Riff Lines as well), but the movie is Still difficult to get through

[TheUnabeefer]

That movie is even more painful without the frequent host segments....  but I laughed til I hurt.

Excellent job!!!

Our copy just made it here to Australia!

Personally I think it's kinda lame.  Tons of cheesy old movies out there to pick from and they decide to go for one they already riffed.

Finally watched it last night....... pretty good.

I tried to watch the MSt3K version right after that to compare, but the horridness of the moive combined with Nyquil put me out.

I will try again tonight.

In my opinion it is much better than the MST3k version.

I agree.   Of course I was never a huge fan of the original version.  I haven't been bowled over by Cinematic Titanic as of yet but I thought this was their funniest release so far. Still not much chemistry between the riffers but the writing was a little better here overall and they've restored my hope for future releases.

I would have thought they would do "Santa Claus" since most of them hadn't riffed that one. Or... two of them hadn't.

I won't watch the CT one, because...well, I just can't be bothered to care.  In fact, I'm not sure why I posted in this thread in the first place.

Drugs are like that..

I wish I could go back in time so that RVR never saw that short.

Well... drugs are like that too.

C'mon.. You Know you want some..

I figure CT didn't want to touch that one since it would spark the old Joel vs. Mike rivalry. Since Joel was the one to tackle SCCTM originally, it's fine if he decides to try it again. If he does a movie that Mike riffed on, everyone will start making comparisons that neither Joel or Mike want . . . or care about.

[RoninFox]

Yeah, that would lead to people claiming Joel was sending a message of "I could have done a better job than you and here is my proof."

Old Joel is WAY better than new Joel, and anyone who thinks otherwise is a stupid wrong person!
