(I'm back! Jesus, a lot happened while I was getting sloshed.)

No, no copy here yet. I just bought Phantom Menace (again, i think i threw it away) and Fifth Element so I could watch those... i'll probably Netflix T3.

times are probably times of posts that are important (my guess)

QuoteFor those of us who who new around these here parts, can someone kindly give a brief summary of what previous puzzles have been about, and what they have revealed/announced.  I would love to play along, but I'm not entirely sure what to look for. 

they announced big riff trax, like star wars and lotr, they announced DVDs to buy like house on haunted hill, im fairly sure they announced Lowtax as a guest riffer

edit:  also they announced contests

The Penguin  puzzles I remember were:

The Matrix Riff-Off
The Halloween Rifftrax
The LOTR Rifftrax
The Star Wars Rifftrax

Everything else was 20 questions

yeah my bad about the low tax one.

Looking at the timecodes....

Quote01:14 / 01:15 / 02:22 / 01:01 / 01:06 / 10:03 / 10:02 / 01:03 / 01:15 / 16:06

Looking from the perspective of someone creating this puzzle, I'm gonna go with it being timecodes to a Rifftrax mp3. My guess has to do with the fact that 6 of the timecodes are in the first minute, and one in the 2nd, which is when Mike does a lot of his talking. If I were creating a puzzle where I was picking out words, I'd be able to get a lot of common words out of the way in the first couple minutes and get them off my list.

BTW, if it *is* a Rifftrax mp3, I guarantee you it's not the Matrix, as the words spoken at 1:14 and 1:15 are "Thermostat! Coffeemaker!"

Yeeeeeeeah-no.

There's a problem I just spotted with the timecodes clue. One of the codes is...

01:01

I'm guessing that the timecode there is complete silence on every Rifftrax out there, or music ramping up.

Naw, the theme music is over in about 30 seconds. Usually Mike's introducing Disembaudio around a minute in.

as i said i think its our responses, they are giving us hints.  as of now im guessing a van hellsing rifff trax, but i dont think thats enough for a presence of the great penguin.

Again, this will be a multi part puzzle to solve. Just because we have an idea of what the movie might be, wont solve the puzzle.
Lets take 'baby steps' here and get through this bit by bit.

Before dapenquin signed off he said we were close. I think we need to look at the anagrams again.

leeving

not T3 audio....sound ---(talking) doesn't kick in until after 1:14

ChrisHanel

Still working on the anagram. I'm halfway through the complete complied list. Nothing of note yet except a vague innuendo-ish jab at JProof...

"I GOT ON TUN ONCE - JP"

Who is Tun, and why did I need to know that?!?

eh, my theory doesnt pan out.  i ran through the thread.  it works great right up until after 2:22.  The 2:22 was my post and said we will have a guest riffer, but after that everything falls apart.  so need a new theory, the anagram is the key 

Pak-Man

I've plugged the first few timecodes into every RIfftrax I have (AKA, Every Rifftrax) and none of them seem to lead anywhere sensical...

sarcasm_made_Easy

yea, thats kinda why i thought maybe our guess together, but thats not working either, its a dead end or a traditional penguin red herring.

Just to recap everything so far.
