Space Jam 2 was more prescient than i realized

hmmm Sam Altman reminds me of a certain other dystopian business exec obsessed with the illegal procurement of Hugging Face

Can't wait for this scene

If I understand the trailer correctly, in this scene the mom is telling young Steve Gutenberg that his father just became in POW in the Vietnam War. So, yeah... 🤷

I consider myself a very tolerant woman, able to accept and even value cultural practices and behaviors that I am not initially familiar with. There are many ways to be. But damnit, y'all, lavalier mics are supposed to go on your *lapel!* Stop holding them in front of your mouth in videos!

120 MINUTES was an absolute oasis in pre-internet pop culture. So many bands that you could ONLY find there (TV-wise) became ubiquitous online later (and relatively recently). A pioneer. consequence.net/2026/07/dave...

Apologies, we for got the alt text! Here it is.

Right now the world is full of people who want to code and write and paint and film stuff and people who want to play and read and look at and watch stuff and nobody is allowed to do any of that because some unrelated third guy isn't making enough money off the deal

all this talk about DISCLOSURE DAY and no one's discussed the weird way he ties it into E.T. at the end?

Welcome to Taskmaster!!! Would you like to play a game?

Yes, but only because my son is an agent of chaos and periodically attempts to use it for fun.

Péter Magyar's victory in Hungary makes me think that we need a Democratic presidential candidate named John American

"Open the Strait of Hormuz. You may not receive the help of any other sovereign nation. Fastest wins."

The belief in trans rights entering the median voters body as Trump makes gas cost $8/gallon

Looked into this more and I think they might have made them to keep up morale for the cast and crew? The shoot started in late March 1983 and didn't finish until early February 1984, so maybe they made these as gifts at the beginning of 1984 to be like "we're almost there, it will be worth it"

congrats to CBS

How long until we get a video with Olivia Reingold in a terrible wig doing a Scott Pelley impression

I'm pretty sure this is the first time one of my film restorations has shown up on RiffTrax. It's all been worth it.

"I author Blu-Rays for a living." "They still make those?"

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

@mrholness.bsky.social if there is any way that we could convince you to read this as Garth Marenghi the people of BlueSky would be grateful

I guess I'm one of the only weirdos that remembers they've been selling this since 2019? Although I think it was online only until very recently

Slightly diminish a band

“Do we like Damien? We like Damien, don’t we? It’s all for him, we do it all for him. We just want him to look at us. We treat him well, sometimes he’s not very nice to us, but it is for him, it’s really all for Damien.”

Been watching a lot of Kitchen Nightmares recently to distract myself from the horrors, and I've decided the show's basic premise is "men would rather sink $1 million into a restaurant than go to therapy"

For some reason I heard this in the Law & Order VO guy's voice

Sadly you're only allowed to use the "scrambled eggs" version of Yesterday though

I did an event in DC & there was a party for donors etc after. Was talking to 2 ppl & I said "Things are so bad." They said "No this is how it is. Things swing one way, then another. It's normal." That's when I realized why Dems are toothless. They have no idea what this is. Frogs boiling in water.

What I mean when I say I want masculinity without toxicity

The 17 models that help me with my research

Wait, I know this one

People seem to forget the (multiple) episodes of Star Trek where all the people who programmed the computer running their society died and their children were so dumb they started worshipping the computer as a god

Probably the only time in history where you could make a movie whose entire premise was "remember 11 years ago? That was way better than now, right?"
