The big show's tomorrow so I thought we ought to have a thread. (Mods, feel free to move it if necessary) Got my tickets ready and I'm super pumped! And today on Facebook, they had a group photo session and a live Q&A press conference. www.facebook.com/rifftrax/videos/10154262544733904/The Q&A was pretty fun and reminded me a lot of the 20th anniversary panel from years ago. (Except for the new addition of Jonah of course)

Darn. I couldn't really make out what they were saying.

Yeah, I do wish the audio was less muffled and echoy, but I'm hoping they upload it in higher quality sometime.

I've been following some of the Brains on Twitter and it seems like it's been a cool time so far. Wish I could make the show, but unfortunately I'm booked. The big show's tomorrow so I thought we ought to have a thread. (Mods, feel free to move it if necessary) Got my tickets ready and I'm super pumped! And today on Facebook, they had a group photo session and a live Q&A press conference. www.facebook.com/rifftrax/videos/10154262544733904/The Q&A was pretty fun and reminded me a lot of the 20th anniversary panel from years ago. (Except for the new addition of Jonah of course) Just out of curiosity, who is the woman at front row center? Should I know her? I've seen her in other promotional shots on Twitter, as well.

Doing the same as I've done with other recent shows. Driving down to spend a couple nights with my daughter and taking in the show with my son. Should be a special show!

I thought she looked too young to be an original Brain and it clearly isn't Felicia Day. Thanks, Triple.

I foolishly figured that there'd be at least one seat available at the Regal Commerce, but it was SOLD OUT. And Fandango says the encore is also SOLD OUT.
AAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
So, on July 12th, should I buy a ticket for ID4 and sneak in, wait for the DVD to come out, or drive 90 minutes through crazy NJ traffic to Hazlet, where the only other theater in the state that's running it is located?

Good stuff. The short selection may not have been the best, but there were plenty of big laughs. Some random thoughts:
Joel and Trace still have it. Frank really hasn't aged! Jonah has just the right amount of enthusiasm and snark - he'll be a great host! The 10 years of Rifftrax montage was great - but why wasn't there one for MST3K? Wasn't that the point? So... how, exactly, did that guy wind up bleeding profusely after hitting the thing with the sledgehammer? Seeing it from two angles, I'm still confused. The grass short was a perfect encore - even if most of the lines were recycled, it still cracks me up every time. Looking forward to Mothra! I've seen most of the Toho Godzilla and related kaiju flicks, but never managed to get around to seeing the original Mothra. Of the Supreman movies I've seen in theaters this year, the stamp thing was the best one.

Supposedly a shard of metal went flying into his chest cavity because it wasn't ground down. I found it the least believable part of the whole campy short.
