Well, as I'm the first on the board (I assume) to have seen it, I'll post my abbreviated thoughts. First thing, it was even better than I had imagined it to be. As I've said before, I was worried that 5 riffers would make it a little too busy, but that wasn't the case at all. One thing that I found was a slight deviation was that Mary Jo riffed more from a female perspective than was evidenced in her MST3K writing, where her and Bridget seldom wrote from a woman's viewpoint.
The opening is a screen stating that this is a creation from the cast, and asking that it not be pirated. The opening of the show is as is shown on the trailer. The theme music comes on and everyone in silhouette goes to their positions (as I've alluded too previously, the entire show, including host segments, are done in silhouette).
The host segments are brief, and I thought they were extremely funny.
I don't want to give too much away as I'm afraid there are people out there just like me who don't WANT any spoilers, but who cant help themselves from looking anyway. If there are any specific questions, post them here and I'll answer.

I'm glad I know this, cuz it lowers my expectations a little. I'm sure they'll still be great, but I was really hoping for a premise with actual host segments--at least as much as The Film Crew had.

RAD, is the plan to have all 5 riffers in on all of the releases? Or will this only happen as schedules permit?

Ok, here's a specific question.
We all know Frank gets up from his chair during the movie. But how about Joel and Mary Jo... do they stand at various points, or stay seated thoughout?

They stay seated throughout the movie. Frank gets up and interacts with a guest during one of the host-sequences, but, for the most part, he stays seated throughout as well. RAD

Be warned, there is a point in the movie (removing the brain) that is a little graphic. Not over-the-top gore that you see in most movies today, but still might bother someone who is squeamish.
