I've ordered four copies, one for me and three for friends. Next time around I might see if they want to go the download route.

Downloaded and burned it last night but I can't watch it until Sunday. (I have to go on a family trip to Charleston this weekend.) I did see a few minutes of it and it looks good! Laughed a lot in the scant 5 minutes that it was on. They seem to be improving with each episode. This bodes well for future episodes.

I saw it last night and I loved it. The jokes we’re funnier and more frequent than in Wasp Woman, and I loved the obscure riffs and the couple of call backs they did. (Frank makes a “Ginger Baker Valley” riff in tribute to himself that made me lol and my wife look at me puzzled.) This is my favorite episode yet!
Let me say something about the movie however - WOW it’s bad. I mean, its just sleazy, washed out, greasy hairball neckerchief wearing creepy bad. My wife thought that it was really funny, but she said that the movie was so bad it was hard to enjoy it. She’s not a misty like I am however. (I loved it!) But if your bad movie tolerance level isn’t to high then this might be rough for you.
A little more is hinted at regarding the background of the show as well, concerning armed military guards, the fact that the Titans might not exactly be there willingly and a very strict chewing gum policy.
I DL’ed the episode using EZ Takes and as always I had a wonderful experience with it. As I keep saying, I’d buy all my DVD’s this way if I could.
So in summery it was a great episode, the only problem is that now I have to wait for the next one!

That's so awesome to hear they're starting to use call backs. The "Danger in Ginger Baker Canyon" riff from Oozing Skull was pure genius in my book.

I'm ordering this Monday. Good to know I wasn't imagining armed guards escorting Josh into the nanotating room in WW.
Funny, but way back before Oozing Skull was released, one of my ideas for a "premise" involved high-powered weapons, and the Titans would be located in a remote location. But in that version, the guns were for defense, not pointed AT the Jocular Five. Oh well...

Just got this from CT, along with a $5 paypal refund on my four DVD order:
Message from merchant: Hi Gary, For some reason our system charged you too much shipping - it should have been $6.68, so here's $5.00 back.
CT are certainly fine folks

I ordered the hard copy DVD and am (im)patiently waiting for it to arrive. I am trying not to go to the EZTAKES site and hit the download button. But I am weak.......
Glad to hear that people like this one. It sure looks sleazy from the previews.

Ordered my DVD yesterday. I'm really getting excited about it now, especially since I don't have to worry about it being performed at the Minneapolis show!

Just got my DVD. Gotta love the great CT service. ;D
Now to find time to watch it...
btw, the enclosed card is J Elvis.
EDIT: Was able to watch the first 40 minutes or so yesterday. The movie is beyond horrible, but once I recovered from the shock of how bad it was (about 15 minutes in) and was able to sit back and enjoy the riffs, the laughs were flowing. Favorite riffs so far is probably the Family Feud one.
I'm enjoying it more than Wasp Women, but I don't know if it's quite as funny as Oozing Skull or Doomsday Machine.

The worst movie ever, with an ending so lame it rivals Monster A Go-Go ("But there was no monster"), but fortunately the riffing was stellar...their finest effort to date. There were countless LOL moments to be had by my wife and me. As usual the best lines were from Josh and MJ.

This movie is absolutely classic '70's Cheese. I don't know if it's faded prints or what, but each and every 1970's film done by MST3K, Rifftrax or Cinematic Titanic looks like you are looking through a thin film of bong water or green puke. That and like most Z-grade movies the clothes are never more than 2 degrees behind the fashion curve the week the film was shot which always makes the film appear badly dated and ridiculous. (Ex. Chartreuse is a quintessential 70's color inspired by too much pot and mercifully cosigned to oblivion.) This bad fashion sense was a source of many, many CT riffs. Best of all this movie has by far the most absolute, HORRIBLE blatant over-acting I have ever seen in any movie I have watched in the past 20 years! I am tempted to think the actors were purposely over-acting just to see if the director would notice and when he didn't they just went for it! Hilarious! I even had to back up the film a couple of times to get the Riffs because I was so engrossed in the hideous performances I missed the jokes! Best one yet!

The worst movie ever, with an ending so lame it rivals Monster A Go-Go ("But there was no monster") Oh man, I completely agree. The ending had me feeling like I'd just been Rickroll'd or something. Was the movie trying to be funny, or ironic, or...? But this is definitely my favorite of the CT episodes. Frequent, funny riffs, fun "host segments" (or whatever it is we're calling them now), and even though I never really cared if CT had a premise or not, I have to admit the opening segment had me intrigued. My only compliant is in the opening credit sequence, why did they get rid of the little photos of the Titans that would pop up when each one would talk? I thought it was a cute way of introducing everyone, giving a face to the performers, and letting the audience know who's voice belongs to who. ...But then, I guess if you don't know by now who's voice belongs to who, you're a lost cause.
