We've known it was coming eventually, ever since our panel at this years comic con where audience members got to suggest movies.  Well we've finally gotten a chance to riff

Dragon Wars: D-War

And it's coming out on Monday, 10/5.

It's available really cheap used on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000YDOOEQ/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&qid=1254341966&sr=8-1&condition=used

And it's available to watch instantly on Netflix:  http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Dragon_Wars/70075063?trkid=226870

When we heard that Korean studio Younggu-Art Movies was making a picture called Dragon Wars, we were both excited and disgusted at the same time.  Excited because we have had many conversations about which Korean movie studio would direct our "dream" dragon movie, and the name Younggu-Art Movies just kept coming up.  But we were also disgusted, because the movie title failed to provide its own abbreviation as part of the title.

This is a major gripe that we have with just about every single movie that has ever come out: Abbreviations of a movie's title should always be included as part of the title.  In today's busy web 2.0 world, who has time to refer to anything by its whole name?  However, we run into trouble when movies don't specify how we should abbreviate their titles, and competing, non-standard abbreviations are adopted.  Fortunately, our disgust was misguided, as Dragon Wars bucks the trend and includes its own abbreviation in the title: D-War.  A true abbreviation, where Dragon becomes D and Wars becomes War, Dragon Wars: D-War provides the consumer with something so sorely missing from movie titles today: Choice.

So whether you choose to experience the fantastical creatures and hi-octane action sequences of Dragon Wars, or prefer the ancient story of a love that knows no bounds of D-War, you must know one thing: this D-movie D-bites D-hard.

Mike, Kevin and Bill decided to D-riff Dragon Wars: D-War, because a fan in attendance at our 2009 Comic-Con panel suggested it.  The moral of the story?  Don't do that.

I'll be brief.  I've been agitating for this movie for a while, and not only do I get it, but thanks to to Netflix instant streaming, I get to watch it for exactly zero dollars (not counting actual riff).  Two for two.

Thank you, Rifftrax.  This makes up for ... well, I won't mention it in mixed company.  Just thank you.
