Burgess Meredith (as the Penguin) has a song???
As insane as it is, it's not so surprising. They made records for everything in the 60s. This track comes from an entire Batman album.
The comments section of this video speculates that The Penguin invented Gangsta Rap.
Plus: Rich Evans has a new catchphrase.
Rifftrax has announced a new Kickstarter - they will be riffing over the 1986 BMX classic "Rad." Does anything else need to be said?
One thing that should be said is the tier that allows you to contribute a riff is already sold out. That was probably my only purpose in life and I didn't get a chance.
The live event is August 17th, so still a lot of time.
I wanted to list the stretch goals but don't see any listed.
Just discovered a number of TV series are available online.
First, the entire series of Creature Comforts (The UK Version) is on youtube. Season 1 is above.
Secondly, the entire Batman (1966) TV show is on Amazon, free with ads. It's always been a goal of mine to watch every episode one day so I'm doing that.
The commercials during Batman, reveal that (as far as I can tell) every episode of "The Joy of Painting with Bob Ross" is also on Amazon, free with ads. With 31 seasons, you'd have to be a crazy person to watch them all, but I might. Though watching a PBS show with commercials feels like a violation.
The commercials during Batman also reveal that the episode of "Supermarket Sweeps" from the 90s are available to view. I was not really aware of this show but it strikes me as novel that one can watch old game shows. Will we get full seasons from the 1980s of "The Price is Right" next? Who knows. They already have the Family Feud with that creep Richard Dawkins.
I don't believe in "guilty pleasures" when it comes to movies - I like what I like, I see no need to feel guilt over a movie. But "Days of Thunder" is as close to a guilty pleasure as I come. I know it has a bad reputation, I have heard a million times how it's stupid and mediocre, I just can't agree. I watch it and see nothing to dislike, everything about screams "enjoyable entertainment."
But let's see what Cassie and Carly think...
I was wondering what happened to The Darkness. They seemed primed to take over the world in 2003 and then I never heard anything from them again.
The lead singer, Justin Hawkins, had a drug problem and left the band, but they've re-united many times and made a number of albums since then. Now Justin is a youtuber, hence this video. I like him but, being an aspiring youtuber, all his video titles are the worst kind of clickbait garbage, it makes it hard for me to explore anything. Oh well, I'll probably have a moment of weakness at some point.
