Rifftrax Live: Sharknado

[orangerful]

Yes, last night we saw Rifftrax Live: Sharknado and it was HILARIOUS! After a hectic day at work (not even gonna go into it) I needed to laugh and just forget the entire world and this totally did the trick. I was cracking up as soon as we sat down in the theater with the preshow "trivia":

I salute any of you that watched that movie without Mike, Bill, and Kevin there to protect you. I NEED those riffs to get through a movie this bad.

And there is something wonderful sitting in a full theater, surrounded by your friends and hearing everyone just LAUGHING for two hours. I think Rifftrax should be used in some kind of therapy.

They are doing an encore showing on Tuesday night. Check your local theater, it's well worth the money!

When I got home, I found that they had given us a code for 15% off our next order PLUS the movie I had been WAITING to go on sale - Jack the Giant Killer - was discounted to $7.95! So I snagged that for the next time I need a good laugh. That was the first live Riff I ever saw and I left the theater with a stitch in my side from laughing so hard.

Wow, they do this as a live screening at the cinema? That sounds awesome! I'd love to go see something like that.

It's a big special event for them. Mostly they sell the mp3s on their site, but once in awhile they do live broadcasts out of Minnesota and pick a movie they can get the rights to. Kickstarter has made this easier for them because they have been asking fans to help donate to help with the licensing costs. But you can get the mp3s from their website and just sync them up with your own DVDs. They are only like $3 for some of the Riffs.

I've never heard of this before, but it sounds like a lot of fun. I'll definitely give it a try :D

One of my personal favorites is the Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull riff. OMG only way I would ever watch that movie again. The Harry Potter ones are pretty good too, as are the Star Wars prequels because...well they had it coming!
