The Godfather III Showgirls (not that this isn't a laugh riot on it's own) John Carpenter's Village of the Damned Star Trek Insurrection Star Trek Nemesis Starcrash ('70's sci-f w/ Caroline Munroe, Marjoe Gortner and David Hasselhoff) I'd also like them to go after those other 1930's drug/VD films - Marihauna, The Devil's Weed, Assassin of Youth, Cocaine Fiends, Damaged Lives, Sex Madness - those would be great. EDIT: How could I have forgotten Flash Gordon! Typical DeLaurentus movie - beautiful but brainless. And there's a new DVD of Showgirls coming out on the 17th of July.

Just been trying out a couple of Rifftrax, and apart from my mp3 player being a POS, I'm likin' 'em. Halloween (my first) was a blast. Here's a few I think have potential: Chuck Norris! I mean, c'mon- Chuck freakin' Norris! But where to start? Planet of the Apes- the original. After the countless POTA references in MST, it's gotta be a shoo-in. While we're talkin' Chuck, how about Omega Man? Cobra - Stallone is the cure! Or, uh, not. Oh, and what about Tango & Cash! With free Jack Palance, as I recall. Red Heat & Commando- prime Arnie beef! Street Fighter- with Van Damme colourful crapola! Sandy Frank redux! Under Seige- Steven Segal with a ponytail, and Tommy Lee Jones goes OTT! Some outsiders: Carpenters The Thing- could be gold! Dark movies bring out some of the best gags. Scanners- I'm sure the head exploding scene would get some mention of pop-rocks and soda. Phantasm movies- goofy horror. Dawn of the Dead (original)- imagine the riffs on the zombies point of view! Gotta be better than NOTLD! Also, I wonder about anthology movies, such as the two Creepshows, and a few others. May be a neat way to introduce new riffers/writers to the crew by assigning 'em a storyline each. Yeah, I tend to over-think stuff when I have nothing to do! Your thoughts, sirs? Coz.

Flash Gordon (1980). Now that the DVD has finally been re-released, it's time this cheesy-ass movie (that I happen to love to death) got its ribbing from Mike and the gang.

Flash Gordon would rock! Plenty of cheese to bust on there.
Logan's Run would be another good one for sci-fi fantasy goofyness.

Any of Steven Segal's "offerings" would do nicely...now there's a "Buddhist" who can stand being taken down a few pegs...
Specifically:
Striking Distance - a hackneyed cop thriller with some of the worst acting and goofiest dialogue ever recorded, PLUS it's from the same ass crack (I mean director) that brought us Roadhouse
Hamlet (the *terrified scream* Mel Gibson *insane chuckle* "performance" - this piece of crap really deserves it
Escape from New York - just enough goofy implausibility (and B-movie level Donald Pleasence) to be riff fodder
Airforce One - a chance for Mike to boom "Get off my plane!" for real (although, let me add as a sidenote that I wouldn't want to see too many Harrison Ford movies get riffed because of that one unforgivable mainstay of Ford's later films, that of threatening children as a cheap emotional appeal to the audience...nothing funny about that kind of desperate, manipulative drivel)
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom...do I even have to elaborate on why this is riffable?
Mission to Mars - a movie obviously researched by five-year-olds and produced and directed by people who just didn't care...bad Tim Robins! Bad! Bad!! - and the 2001 total rip-off ending! Ack! Mike, Kevin, Bill...I implore you!

Mike, Kevin, Bill...I implore you! Actually, since Indiana Jones is a movie that's not entirely serious, I don't think it'd work out so well with the riffing. Mission to Mars though, I could see.

I don't know...Star Trek V was anything but serious and it was one of the better Rifftrax...TofD could work on that level - taking on the campiness...

Oh God I wish I could see Mission to Mars done by the original Season 5 crew. This is how I envision the riffing at the point where that prancing a$$ shawshank-redemption guy pulls off his helmet and commits suicide:
[whoosh] air escaping.... [stupid screaming lady] Oh no..."!"!!!!! Crow: Finally.. Joel: Yeah I mean thank God Servo: I never thought he would shut up.. Crow: I would have killed him myself long before this point.. Joel: Now Crow you see what I am always telling you? You are always saying things like that. Now give it a chance you guys.. Servo: Yeah right Joel... etc. etc.

I'm a HUGE Michael Caine fan...my favorite all-time actor!
But....he HAS made a lot of turkeys. How about Beyond the Poseidon Adventure...Jaws: The Revenge...The Hand (although I kinda liked that one)...Swarm...so many!
