 The first RiffTrax Live Online show will hit the net Thursday, Dec. 16, at 9 p.m. Eastern/6 p.m. Pacific. The evening begins with the guys riffing a brand new Christmas themed short – that’ll be free for everybody. That will be followed by a riff of a Christmas movie that they haven’t announced yet — but to watch that you’ll have to buy a ticket.
They will announce the name of the Christmas movie Friday, Dec. 3, at 4 p.m. Eastern, 1 p.m. Pacific, and show for a free preview. For 99 cents you can watch the world premiere of a new RiffTrax short online, and get a downloadable copy of the short. Tickets will go on sale for the Dec. 16th show at that time. Go here to get a ticket to the preview event: www.rifftrax.com/live/online/debut2010Courtesy Satellite News. |

Me too. The Mr. Moto thing worked just right, so they must have all the kinks out. More live shows means more MST-like movies, right?

I'm getting a be-careful-what-you-wish-for kind of feeling.
(Please don't be Ice Cream Bunny please don't be Ice Cream Bunny please don't be Ice Cream Bunny....)

So this is an internet-only event, right... not shown in theaters, like the recent House on Haunted Hill?

Sounds cool - I'll be missing it (I work week nights and I don't have net access at home) but I am interested in seeing what they are going to riff on (why not Ice Cream Bunny? That would be a gas)
Hopefully this will wind up on DVD or download later.

I am just disappointed that i will miss this because i will be either, in flight, landing, or driving back from an airport that is an hour away from where i need to be. Any chance there can be a repeat later the next week?

Any chance there can be a repeat later the next week? Since this is a brand new thing, that's a good question. When they announce the live theater shows they announce the encore right away, but so far nothing, so maybe there'll be just the one show. Either way, it's pretty certain to end up on DVD. (And maybe VOD?) |

I'm not really a live kind of guy. With kids and what-not and simply my preference to watch MST3K/RiffTrax/etc later in the evening with a beer, I won't be tuning in to the live show.
But that said, I hope they have a copy out for download by 12-24. I'll be happy to pay the full feature price for it (like I do with all of their premixed full movies).

I checked Rifftrax forums, looks like they had some problems with the announcement but it sounds like they are doing the Ice Cream Bunny. YAAAAAY!
I also just saw/read that some of you here were going to do it as well. That's a bummer, but... and I mean no offense- I'm happy to see the old pros take a shot at this. It's a title I've long hoped CT or the Trax troupe would tangle with.

wow. i pulled out of the group board project on that one because after one viewing i was more than willing to feel death's sweet embrace. i love mike, kevin and bill, but i have a feeling this will be more painful than the star wars holiday special and battlefield earth combined. i had no plans whatsoever to ever, EVER revisit that monstrosity. only my love for the guys will make me chance it one more time.
