WHAT LATE NIGHT HOST....

[JonnyFrag]

Sorry to sound like a party pooper but   none of the above.

I can't think of a single funny late night host. Maybe Jon Stewart, but that's more due to his great writers and team on his show and it's not really a late night show thing. Comedy Central shows it like 17 times a day.

  I think Stephen Colbert would be a brilliant choice when they want to riff on Dungeons and Dragons. If he worked with Mike, he could explain the game to him through the whole movie.
   Otherwise, even though it's a hypothetical question, I still tended to think west coast as more likely and think Kimmel would be a good choice, maybe with Silverman also sitting in.

sadly me and only one other person (at this time) thinks leno would be good.   Im sorry i just like leno.  conan is damned good pick too though.  if your gonna get him might as well get the rest of the simpsons writers, james brook, cohen, and groening and what not.

While I like Conan the most, I think Jimmy would do the best job. Jimmy and Mike together watching "The Running Man" could be near the top of Rifftrax Stardom (It will take a lot to knock Road House off the Mountain)

Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert aren't LATE NIGHT hosts.  And they have giant teams of writers that make them funny.

Although Colbert's work on Exit 57 and Strangers with Candy should win him a spot on the list (even just for play-play)

[SaucyRossy]

So you think Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert have bigger writing staffs than Letterman, Leno, Conan, and Kimmel?

Ummmmmm yeah.

[Tarantulas]

I didn't say they didn't.... What I am saying is that the chances of getting any of them is pretty much zero (with their fairly regular commitments) BUT of the ones listed, people tend to like those two the best (unless they voted for Conan.. then thats another issue).

I say that if they were serious about getting a LATE NIGHT guest riffer, the should pick Arsenio...  He's likely fighting hobos for ham scraps behind the Safe-Way and would excited to participate.

While J-Proof said this was hypothetical...i really am not so sure that it is....i mean why start the thread unless Mike and Legends have something there working on and they want to know what we think?


As for the flying thing. Im sure Mike would fly to New York to do a rifftrax with Conan...

[La De Da]

Jimmy is right up there, but the Irish Man is bit funnier.  IMO of course.

[Tarantulas]

I garrentee its all in fun... can you imaging the cost of getting those guys?  flying Mike to New York to write and record with Conan?  Welcome to the world of $15.99 rifftrax.

Its not really feasable...  but it is fun to talk about

Im sure the cost would not change at all....due to the fact that Conan probably wouldnt want that much money and the other thing is I am sure LF would love it to have Conan for the shear publicity....the cost of a airplane ticket? Come on now....think BIG!


No not Tom Hanks Big...

My theory is that they asked this question to see which show we think that Mike should be a guest on, to promote RiffTrax.

[Tarantulas]

I'm not sure what the point would be for other people to write the rifftrax and just have Conan read it..  he would have to be involved in the process or otherwise is just a hollow nothing.

I'm sure the inner fanboy might be satisfied untill you turn that nonesense off and really think about it.

Half the fun of MST was figuring out who wrote the joke you are listening to

OOOOOOOOO... you so smart!

I never even thought of that.  In which case, go for the biggest name that isn't going to bump you for some coked up supermodel or some music guest that no one gives a rat's ass about.

[SaucyRossy]

hell imo they should try and get mike on as much stuff to promote rifftrax. I really dont think they would turn down offers from Leno, Letterman, etc.
