Actually if you want to take my preseason binge of 9 of the 13 movies featured this season where I prewrote my reviews of the film portions, I watched it three times.
So let's go with two and three-quarters.

wow. I am impressed you were that in depth after just seeing it once! Seemed like you thought it through enough to give it a ranking but perhaps it's not fair to the episode to be ranked on one viewing where you are mentally dissecting it so much (in order to provide the review). It was a good read and props for mentioning Atlantic Rim. This movie is the Atlantic Rim of the 90s. I watched it twice, actually.

Feel that? That's the feeling of a new season of MST3K in full swing! The show has always had robots, but now let's make them the size of a Megazord and have them duke it out! Get in the crowd and cheer on the Robot Wars!

From the director of Fugitive Rage is another direct to video action movie straight out of the dollar bin. Get ready for that nostalgic feeling of renting from blockbuster and realizing you wasted your money on movies like Rapid Assault! But at least there are snacks, as our BONUS SHORT points out! Two leprechauns point out the diverse usage of the perfect food: the potato chip! Venture out into The Adventures of Chip and Dip!

I'm all in on riffs of Cats and Judge Dredd. I just wish Judge Dredd wasn't at a level that only the Reunion Kickstarter reached, because I'd much rather have that riff than Dune.

Just as April brings us the slightly delayed Superior 8 Ultra Brothers and Ultraseven X, while Ultraman Mebius is scheduled for May, the next Ultraman releases have been announced for June: Ulraman Kids 3000 and a double feature of the Ultraman Zearth films. Both are listed as DVD, but it's possible that Zearth is actually a Blu-ray as Ultraseven X turned out to be a misprint and high definition materials were available for it.
Ultraman Kids 3000 seems to be relatively obscure in the Ultra community as very few fans seem to know much about it. Apparently it's a animated show targeted at young children from the 80's that spun off of a movie, but very few fans in the US seem to have actually seen it let alone a subtitled copy of it. It will be interesting to gage fan reaction on that one, but I assume disinterest.
Ultraman Zearth however is a pair of parody movies that were made for Ultraman's 30th anniversary as Tsuburaya were prepping the launch of Ultraman Tiga on TV to push the series back into the limelight. I'm curious about those.
And with those all Mill Creek has left on their contract are Neos, Cosmos, Nexus, Max, and their accompanying films, unless they want to release the bundled films on DVD sets on blu-ray. After that it's a waiting game to see if this merchandising push paid off and they'll release the newest Ultra shows of Taiga, Z, and Trigger on blu-ray. I've got my fingers crossed.

One last dip into RiffTrax's Toxic Box set as we grab our CG arrows and hunt the dreaded Suburban Sasquatch. Does the last riff of the box set live up to the first two, or is it...toxic?

Sweet. I'll put it next to my unriffed Blu-ray of the movie.

Akira Takarada, who played the young male lead of Ogata in the original Godzilla, has passed away at the age of 87. He also had roles in Godzilla vs. Mothra, Godzilla vs. Monster Zero, Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster, Godzilla and Mothra: The Battle for Earth, Godzilla: Final Wars, and filmed a cameo in Godzilla 2014 but was cut out of the film. Other toku films in his filmography include Half Human, King Kong Escapes, and Latitude Zero.

I have a lady friend who I introduced to a party game called Use Your Words, where you go through certain rounds by typing funny answers on your phone and they appear on the screen. She became obsessed with it mostly because of a video clip caption section early on where you had to subtitle a line from a foreign film.
This sounds like a game she'll love.

I'm all for a riff of Old. That was one of the most doofus movies of the last few years.
A Dune riff I'm less inclined to think could work. That movie is pretty to look at, but a long road to nowheresville.
