MST3K (Mystery Science Theater) 3000 is BACK.
Edited on Mon Jan-14-08 12:58 PM by bbernardini

Joel, Trace, Josh, Frank and MaryJo are all onboard. I'm beside myself with giddiness.

1. Mike Nelson had a thing, too...
Where you'd pay a few bucks to download an MP3 and play it simultaneously with a DVD to hear them cracking wise about major motion pictures... (That way they didn't have to get the rights to the movies, the most expensive part by far)... Saw the site, but didn't try it out. Anyone had any luck with it?

2. I downloaded some of them, but...
It's really hard to get it to synchronize with the films. I imagine there's files floating around the internets that have combined the films and the RiffTrax. When it works, it's pretty funny.

15. Someone just made software that does it for you
http://shop.rifftrax.com/rifftrax-player

They're also selling some RiffTrax "On Demand" now, with the audio and video already synched for you.

5. Rifftrax - and I *highly* recommend it
A few bucks (I don't think anythings over $5 on the RT site) and you get an mp3 file to synch up to your DVD or movie file. *Very* easy to synch (basically, you'll only have a problem if your equipment is off). *Very* funny stuff.

And if you somehow find yourself in possession of a Rifftrax file that is also a movie file (hey, it's the internet - it happens!) you can even hit their "donate" button and pay retroactively. I just can't recommend Rifftrax enough.

I got my DVD copy of "The Oozing Skull" today.

I'll let you know how it is after I watch it tonight. (Although based on other comments you've made in this thread, you probably already have it? :7)

7. There are official DVDs on ebay but they're $22.99 each.
Are they less expensive from CT themselves? I'm hella into this excepting the price factor.
