I found out about Rifftrax through 4chan's /tv/ board, plenty of MST3K fans throughout that site (it is the unwanted offspring from SomethingAwful, so there are similarities).  I'm thinking of buying the riff of The Matrix since I saw a preview clip of it on YouTube and laughed my ass off.  Keep em coming, Mike!

Buy them all.  Buy them all now!  ;D

I heard it trough a grapevine. No, I was talk´n to this guy on a swedish community (Helgon.net) about mst3k and he told me about it. And I am very happy that he did :)

I heard of Rifftrax via a site called Redszone (NOT a fansite for the Warren Beatty film, but the Cincinnati Reds). In a "TV shows which were cancelled too soon" thread, I was lamenting the early end of MST3K, when I was pointed in this direction.

if karmic retribution is real, apparently the universe want mike to keep up riffing.  I heard about it through mst3k.com but i really hope you guys find other avenues for getting the word out.  I would really love to see this spread past just us mysties.

One of the sample vids(The Matrix, actually) came up on YouTube as I was done watching something else, and I saw Mike's name in the title, thought to myself.."waitaminnit..that's the guy from..."  I clicked on it, watched it and immediately came over and bought a few, with The Matrix being the first one. 

I just wanna say, Mike, Kevin, Bill, keep up the amazingly funny, sidesplitting work.  You're filling a void a lot of us have had after MST3K went off the air and I for one applaud the lot of you for it.  Thank you.

I played the Episode 1 RT for a friend of mine, a serious Star Wars & Lucas sackswinger(the type that buys everything the man has put out to date, merchandising, videos, etc) and he loved it.  He never was that much into MST, but he got a real kick out of it.

For the longest time I've been saying it about MST3K, and I think that it applies here as well, It's something of an acquired taste.  You know, the sort of "we think it smells of cheese, but th really good cheese..." sort of thing...

i think the average rifftrack is different JUST enough to have a much wider appeal, i think thats one of the reasons i was against troll 2.  I mean Ill enjoy it, but i think it closes the door on some of the potential audience.  Some of the people i have shown this too who have really liked in fact, but never watched mst3k.

Even with the fact that there's a Trax for it, I'm not likely to rush out and get that one too soon.  Or The Grudge, for that matter.  I'm just not one for the thriller/slasher type movies, I'm afraid...

...another find through myspace, completely by accident.  I don't remember why I was looking at anything in myspace - I only recall finding a link to the RIFFTRAX beta site (I believe it was through a MSTie fan profile or some such thing).  As soon as I came to, I went running throught the streets naked with my hair on fire.  I told the officer I was in ecstacy, he thought I was on it.  Anyway, to make a short story really long, I'm enjoying all of the RIFFTRAX, since I can't wonder much further than curbside without this stupid bracelet making a gawdawful noise. My psychiatrist told my parole officer I should receive a reduced sentence, but only if I promise not to throw Flaming Hot Cheetos at the judge this time.

Oh.  yeah, before I forget.   ::)
