Satellite News reported a rumor that they are working on a project. Oh hell any project between these two would be great. I remember when I first read mike's Happy Kitty book, it reminded me of James Lileks humor. To compare read Lilek's funny, History of BreadI hope this comes off, the two are a natural fit. |

James Lileks is awesome. My parents have most his books, and I love the Gallery of Regrettable Food. He and Mike doing a rifftrax together would some kind of heaven.  |

He also had this section where he shows a Spiderman Little Big Book, I used to own that thing too. He did a good job having fun with that as well. I don't know if this link eventually gets to that one... www.lileks.com/institute/funny/biglittle/1.html |

Somebody want to explain to me why I have never gotten a single link to Lilek's site to work? It just comes up dead everytime.

There is also a discussion on the RiffTrax forum here about this exact topic. I've never heard of the guy!! |

He's like a more annoyed version of Mike (he can go on when bugged by something). He's done radio work and has the voice and delivery chops. My favorite pieces aren't really his political slams but rather his looks at idiosyncratic pop culture. I discoivered him after reading his piece on cheescake artist Art Frahm. It was so damned brilliantly sardonic that I was instantly won over. They get the right movie, oh something like "Down With Love", something that taps into a bygon pop era, and he'd be right in his element. And thanks for the link gammer... I don't really dig it much over there though, so i'll keep talking about it here.  |

Spiderman 2 would probably be the most difficult of the 3 to riff, it's so well-balanced. Spiderman 3 should pretty much riff itself, and I wouldn't really mind if they skipped the second one to get at it sooner.
