If you haven't heard, Bill did an awesome live FAQ on the Rifftrax blog yesterday. He gave a detailed status of The Film Crew, coppied here from:

The whole thing is a fun read.

OK, about an hour later… More on the Film Crew, since the others peoples, they are as well asking, too, in addition to yourself.
Mas:
We are still talking to Shout!!!! Factory!!!!!!!! about doing some more, though it’s not certain what form it would take.
Fer instance — we already, um, disposed of the set, so there’s that.
The Shout!!!!!!!!!! people have been great, and we’re still in touch, and talking biz. But we’d have a lot to figure out to make it happen again. I.E., how would it work with Rifftrax, or not? Big question at present.
We had a great time doing the Film Crew DVDs. For a while it was like a reunion, what with Jeff Stonehouse, Beez McKeever, and Brad Keeley working with us. We had a blast, even though we were making it up as we went.
But the very-delayed released really hurt the momentum. We had to move onto other stuff. Actually, Shout!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!!!!! Factory were the heroes for picking it up and releasing it at all, after it had been run through the mill by Rhino and Best Brains.
So… never say never, but it has its challenges. I think we all miss the old movies, and doing the li’l skits, but there may be a way to do that yet. We’ll see. Even if we did bring back Flim Crew, we’d probably want to learn from the first flight of releases, and do a few things differently — i.e., shorter skits in general, more fun DVD extras.
Such an exegesis. You’d think I was talking about the Middle East crisis. Gee whiz.
Thanks for being interested, though. it’s always flattering, and always appreciated.
