It's like somebody said "Let's re-make 'The 7th Voyage of Sinbad', but without Ray Harryhausen, the sense of wonder and majesty, the production values, or the Hollywood talent... but we'll keep the wacky, fun stuff."
I read the entire Song of Ice and Fire series last year and I’m pretty sure I yelled “Portcullis!” every time someone in the books said it. Thank you Rifftrax. XD
Favorite Moments: 0:25 "No, my beautiful portcullis!" 1:09 Kormaran 1:30 "The heck is the mustard?!" 3:50 "Did you pack a portcullis?" 4:20 "Gaunt's back!" 4:36 "Pendragon is d**k. Who wrote this?!" 5:56 Pendragon shocks Mike, Kevin and Bill! 7:15 - 8:41 "Be right there..." 9:26 Pendragon runs through a hallway high-fiving his light fixtures 9:41 Super Mario Bros Reference 10:22 "Release the vicking! We couldn't afford a Krakken!" 10:41 "We just got down there!" 10:47 "Up yours, Pendragon!"
Torin Thatcher, the guy playing Pendragon, looks almost exactly like Anthony Ainley's version of the Master from Doctor Who... except the Master never wore anything THAT ridiculous.
"Ah, the shadow of a chain is causing me to fall off this wall!" "Jack the Giant Annoyer." "Bury me next to Gumby." "Wearer of Elton John's hand me downs." "Jack the Barrel Avoider." "And Lady Gaga is born." "This way." "Be Right there!" "Light fixtures from the 127 Hours collection."
I may have written this before but anywho, their jokes were so on key with the expressions that the actors faces were making. This led to some really funny stuff. I wish more of the rifts were like this.
I saw this in theaters with my brother, and he and I were both in tears with our sides hurting. This was easily the funniest thing we'd seen since they were on the SCIFI network.
Nobody talks about how much whiplash you could get from being manhandled by a giant creature. You can’t just whip blonde damsels like that without serious repercussions and a lawsuit.
It's a one-night performance streamed nationwide, same as this was. Not that I'm complaining - there are three theatres near me playing it. But I am legitimately surprised they've never done an actual live tour, surely there's enough interest for them to pull it off.
I know I'll never get to see you guys in my life time. But I think you doing this and the recorded shows as well is really awesome for the Misties & newer fans as well who are able to see these shows. Love you guys. Especially curry Kevin. 3
I never could get through the Rifftrax to this movie, I found the movie's pacing to be excruciatingly slow. But seeing this makes me want to attempt finishing it again.
"You know these masks are really, really hot!" "Can we take five?" "Yeah maybe we can get a Gatorade and a straw?" "I'm about to pass out here!" "Ugh, we're supposed to get a union break!" "Ugh, oh god I'm dying!"
I couldn't help but wonder why the pointing skeleton feature went off then, when the hero's on the little minibridge right in front of the front door anyway. Hold it in reserve for when he's in a maze or a "Lady or the tiger" situation with two or three doors?
