1. "Match Your Mood"

   https://archive.org/details/match_your_mood

   This overly groovy ad for Westinghouse refrigerators is public domain and, well, laughably weird. After all, who doesn't want to apply burlap or brick-texture Contact paper to their fridge while dancing around it on New Year's Eve?

3. Food and Magic

   https://archive.org/details/FoodAndMagic

   A short featuring the magic of film editing, with the only carnival barker ever to wear a natty business suit, about the importance of food conservation in WWII. Features questionable facts, magic that isn't, lots of little vignettes, and an America where no one is concerned when a bloody, filthy soldier turns up for dinner.

4. sweet sea

   Sweet Sea was produced by Tomy in 1985. It was a very short lived sea themed series which included one doll, four friends, fashion, cosmetic accessories by Avon, jewellery and a 30-min animated video. i must tell you however, it's anime-influenced cause tms entertainment made it, veteran osamu dezaki made it and vestron video's children's video library made it. it's fun to riff because all our favorite tv show characters from the late 90s and early-mid 2000s learned to do it too. you know which ones i'm talking bout willis. shows that currently rerun on mtv2 and fuse and fuse music.

5. dixie's diner

   Dixie's Diner was produced by Tyco in 1988-89 and was a 1950's style diner. Along with the main Diner playset there were several additional items which were sold separately to add to the diner. There was also eleven poseable figures produced as well as a VHS cartoon. the story line says "Come on down to Dixie's Diner and enter a whimsical world of laughter and fun. A world where every kid can live out their wildest, most hilarious dreams. Where you can dance as long as you want, sing as loud as you want, and feed your face on an endless supply of chocolate shakes and sundaes. It all spells fun and romance with a CAST of frisky loveable and talented Rock 'N Rolling kids. Dixie's Diner. You're going to love this place!" truth is is that it actually involves a gang of teens trying to save their beloved diner. interestingly, it should at least be compared to china's decade long video game ban and how sony interactive entertainment and nintendo tried to speed things up to get that ban lifted. playstation 2 came out at the very very very very very beginning of the year 2004 but 18 months later they closed down in shanghai and moved to beijing with only 10 measly games released and were never heard from again. nintendo on the other hand made a company called ique and their wingman was a scientist that designed the nintendo 64 and gamecube systems architech. first was an n64 plug n play that had 14 games you could download onto the system. the gamecube was never released it shoulda been though. they had plans. the game boy advance and nintendo ds were also released but not many games. there's actually a video game expo called chinajoy and in 2005 they tried to make a splash crash so they could release as many games as they want but didn't due to high piracy. they tried to release the wii but evaded and released it in taiwan,hong kong and south korea instead. the line was drawn with the 3ds. nowadays nintendo teams up with tencent to release the switch in china. and those are the reasons why you must riff this movie.

6. P.J. sparkles

   P.J. Sparkles is a 1992 animated television special produced by Mike Young Productions. The special was more-or-less an advertising vehicle for a Mattel doll. Jodi Benson, best known for voicing Ariel in Disney's The Little Mermaid franchise, voiced the title character. the only reason why you should riff it is because you can compare it to sly 2 band of thieves.

7. video game promo videos

   back in the 90s and early 2000s, many new video games would get previewed with footage on a video tape most especially nintendo 64 since they refused to make a bunch of demo carts even if they did with pokemon stadium, mario party 3, the legend of zelda majora's mask, donkey kong 64 and jet force gemini. there's also playstation one promo videos made as well and of course sega. if you must riff sega vhs', dvds, laserdiscs and betamax's do the promo videos only. that means no anime or tv shows or movies based on the sega games. there's quite a few different reasons why you should riff the video game promo videos one of which involves the fact we've got social media now.you can also search the internet via google and online auction sites like ebay and amazon too for more ideas to add. oh and there's even video game magazine vhs' and dvds made as well like fuse, cube magazine, game breaker, click, power the playstation mag, sega saturn official magazine and gamepro tv. riff them too.

    Made by Film Australia 1989. An outline of how rehabilitation programs are administered in Commonwealth Agencies with specific reference to the role of the case manager. (NFSA Films)

    2. it has some funky late 80s tunes

    3. learn about the bureaucracy of the public service

    4. random teleportation

11. Future World

    Could possibly be one of the worst movies with an A cast, challenging even Prisoners of the Lost Universe.

    Future World is complete trash starring James Franco, Suki Waterhouse, Lucy Liu, Milla Jovovich, Method Man, Snoop Dog and more!

12. Food for Thought (Short, 1949)

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=ZavYMVXYam8

    This educational short has a lot of absurd scenes: there's a rush to plate a loaf of sliced bread, regular meals of meat as big as a human head, and a lesbian teenaged daughter with a wedding ring.

    It also has compelling characters: the generic overworked housewife whose love is conditional on good cooking, the father who can't eat spaghetti, and the daughter who loves pressure cookers so much she gets an advance on her allowance to buy one.

    The narration is also top notch. There's a complete description about how pressure cookers work, lists of foods that one can make with a pressure cooker, and vaguely ominous warnings to not deviate too much from the cooking process.

13. Benji, Zax & the Alien Prince (1983)

    Benji protects a homeless 10 year old alien and his gooftastic flying robot who conveniently forgets he has built in lasers from pairs of alien bounty hunters in nondescript windowless vans.

    In one episode, Benji flies a freaking plane.

14. 1950's Highway Hearing

    A 30 minute "documemtary" (ala 1950s Soap Opera style) Highway Improvement hearing, with bad script and even worse acting! Very timely right now with Congress trying to pass a Highway improvement bill.

15. writing well./paragraphs

    This is an educational short that me and my friends at school loved as a kid. It's about a couple of kids learning how to write paragraphs from an alien named axolotl. The alien is just a man with aluminum paint and a curly blue wig. And if that weren't enough, he's actually living in one of the kid's house, ALF style. Except of course this particular extraterrestrial hates cats and thinks they're trying to eat him instead of the other way around. I cannot tell you how much I would love to see this short riffed on. I hope you guys find it and just love it as much as I did.

17. Cold Can Kill

    A Royal Navy instructional film from 1972, my film collector friend picked this one from a dealer. He showed it at his home and now we all chant the film's title whenever someone falls in the water. Three reasons why it's riffable: The high frequency jumpscare of the title card warning COLD CAN KILL, the goofy Hanna Barbera-esque animation illustrating how alcohol will kill you if you have hypothermia, and the mention that the water "impregnates" your clothes.
