Riff trax anyone?

I've been on an MST3K kick lately as they just added a bunch of them onto Netflix instant play.

Saw online that Michael J Nelson does "riff trax" for movies through some website now. Look like there is a small charge per movie to download. has anyone heard any of these? thoughts?

I think Twilight would cry and cut itself if it heard what they say about it. They're always pretty mean to the movies, even when riffing popular stuff. The Star Wars prequels riffs are all hilarious

I was actually considering Twilight since I have a rather large dislike of the phenomenon. Are they cruel only to be kind or just plain cruel?

I've been keeping up with them and if you like MST3K it's just more of the same minus the silhouettes and host segments. They're a lot of fun but synching them to video, while not rocket science, is a little fiddly. Fortunately the RiffTrax site has a donation button so if you get pre-synched AVIs from, you know...places, you can still support Mike and company and enjoy them with a clear conscience.

The sloth gives them two toes up. In no particular order I particularly recommend the Star Wars Holiday Special, Twilight, the Harry Potter movies, and Wicker Man.
