New Shorts DVD "Shorts to Astonish!" Now Available!

As for the crack, I was just poking a bit of fun thinking you had missed the title when you checked the page.

Not sure how me not seeing something on a site means Rifftrax might make a mistake in putting their DVDs together.

Every thread needs a fall guy.

Shit. I'm sorry this happened (again). It obviously wasn't intentional.

The shorts by Cole and Janet are not replacing anything. They are bonus stuff on top of the normal amount of shorts, (or at least what we thought was the normal amount). They're also very funny, and a neat way to compare our two styles, if you have the downloads of our versions of those shorts. At least now, you're still coming out two ahead!

[Edward J Grug III]

Still curious if they are new scripts on those Janet and Cole shorts?

[Conor]

Yes, they wrote their own scripts

[Edward J Grug III]

Great - thanks! Will be picking this DVD up for sure - our first shorts set in a long while.

We're alive and doing better than ever, actually. Thanks for the advice though. (here and in the other thread) A lot of the public interaction happens on social media rather than the forum these days, most of it actually - and there is plenty of activity there. 

Artie: As of right now there are no plans to release those separately.

That's.... unfortunate.  I've already bought each of the MKB shorts when they were originally released.  So I have to pay $10 to just to get those 3 shorts (rest of the disc is useless to me)?   That's really putting the squeeze on people trying to have a complete Rifftrax collection.

No chance for a "Pay $3.99 for the Janet & Cole 3 Pack downloadable Shorts Collection" is there? Like a few others that have replied, I already bought all these shorts but would love to hear Janet and Cole's take on them.

Shit. I'm sorry this happened (again). It obviously wasn't intentional.

These days, it's really heartening to hear someone actually apologize. Thank you.

Why is Mike actually in the DVD cover art and Kevin and Bill's heads are photoshopped-in in an over obvious way?

[MrTorso]

Never looked at any of the art on the other DVDs?  I don't think they are in a comic shop either!

It's all part of their nefarious plan to take over the world!

Well, the thing is Mike is actually there posed for the picture. Kevin and Bill's heads have been photoshopped onto stand ins (?.)

Anyway, annoying that there's another double of a short, especially of an older short. I wouldn't mind as much if it was one of the better shorts, but "Parts of Speech" is one of their weaker efforts, really.

Imagine if all they were all duplicate if you already own all the shorts but wanted to get the "bonus" shorts since they won't sell them separately.

Does anyone else's DVD skip/stop at 7:30 of Safe Living at School? I got two copies that both do that, making me think it's not a scratch but an authoring issue.

Mine's in the mail - I hope that's not the case though!
