How did you hear about or find Rifftrax?!?

[vampirehunter42]

I guess I need to answer this one.

A little after I learned of Wiki, I was jumping around it reading up on movies. And while reading about 5th element it said something about getting riffed. But at the time I still had dialup. But the day after I got DSL, I went here.

My first exposure to Rifftrax is snippets on YouTube'
but my full exposure to them is their cinema simulcasts
My first Rifftrax Live! cinema simulcast is the Encore of "Plan 9 From Outer Space"
My Brother and I go to these simulcasts due to we love MST3k

I'd been a Mistie for many years, but it was my little brother who introduced me to RiffTrax.  I think the first one we watched was Troll 2.

So, a couple of months ago, I created a facebook page (to make my ex angry by packing my friends list with attractive women that I don't actually know...  hehe, but I digress).  I decided to see if there was an MST3K fan page on facebook (there is, it needs work) and I clicked on the link for Mike's name, because I kinda wondered what he was up to these days.

There at the bottom it said that he, Kevin and Bill (whom I refer to as "The A Team") (I hope they Riff that one) were riffing popular movies.

I downloaded "300" that day.  I just wish I knew about Rifftrax two years ago.

Oh, I guess you could say I was excited.

Now, I'm gonna go back to re-authoring "The Dark Knight".

None of the options really cover this, but I just happened upon it while I was browsing TV Tropes one day. I was a big fan of Mystery Science Theater when I was younger, so needless to say I thought the idea was awesome. Then my brother told me about the House on Haunted Hill event and asked me if I wanted to go, and here I am.

Now that I know about Rifftrax, I distinctly remember my brother showing me the sample for the Revenge of the Fallen riff and thinking it was hilarious. Had no idea what it was though...

I was watching a review of Battlefield Earth by the Nostalgia Critic on YouTube and on the right side of the YouTube page were similar sarcastic review and I saw a sample Rifftrax link and read that the members of rifftrax were the makers of MST3K so I looked up this site. Glad I did, (I loved MST3K and have been watching a lot of old episodes on Netflix) because the guys are still as funny if not funnier than they were back in the 90's!

It's been so long I'm not really sure, but I think somebody mentioned it on the MST3K Livejournal group.  I've always been a Mike fan, so I checked the site out.  I saw they had a Rifftrax for Willy Wonka, and I knew that one was ripe for a bashing, so I had to get it!  I do love the shorts, but the features are my favorite, especially when it's a movie I've seen several times.  The Rifftrax put a whole new spin on the film.  Even if it's a movie I really enjoy, I like hearing what the guys have to say about it.

As I was walking into the "FOREST OF DOOM" I met a magical wizard, his name was Grantuas. He told me that to make it through the night I would have to take this magic potion. I was scared at first but re-assured me that this was the only way to make it out. After taking the potion I flew into a magical mystery dream land filled with Mike Nelson's, Crow's, and Tom Servos. After waking up to find myself naked under the Brooklyn Bridge I ran back home and typed my recent ailments into webmd; It suggested me to watch classic MST3K episodes. I then had to further myself looking for a forum to play around on, and also to keep my sanity here at work.

I was browsing the internet about the movie "A Serious Man" and then I watched it on YouTube and later found out that it can be found in this forum. I'm glad to know this and part of this community. I like the idea of the movie "A Serious Man".

Welcome, Simon!

Sometimes it's good to be among mad people.

I saw the initial announcement on Satellite News I think.  I remember anticipating the Roadhouse riff as if it was the second coming of Christ.

[Mrs. Dick Courier]

Through Satellite news.  I didn't go there on a regular basis, but I read in Starlog magazine about Cinematic Titanic.  When I sent to Satellite news there was a post about Rifftrax. 

Now I go to Satellite news every day.

My first purchase was Shorts Volume 1, and it went from there.

Kinda of stumbled upon it, after remembering how much I love MST3K as growing up as a kid (born in 89' the year MST3K went to the Comedy Channel) with my parents, and then buying some of the DVD Sets from Shout! Factory, along seeing references to Riff Trax and Cinematic Titanic in interviews/wikipedia pages. I was SHOCKED that I hadn't hear of either of them until this year, seeing RT & CT have been going strong since 2006. Immediately got all the DVDs/Blurays I could afford on ebay (ayyyeeee, don't look at me like that! Atleast someone paid full price amiright?!?! and I donated/bought a VOD damnit!). The hilarity ensued.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for an close east coast date for the Manos: Live event muahaha!
