Saw this in FB comments, not my idea but a really good one. The TV series How It's Made ran for years, full of short vinettes of how everyday items are constructed. The narration and pacing make it super riffable.

I saw this potential short on YouTube, you have to see it!!

I heard about this years ago and just remembered it. From the link below:

"Santo Gold is without a doubt the most bizarre infomercial I’ve seen. This infomercial tries to do two very different tasks at the same time: sell a gold jewelry business opportunity and promote a “science-fiction space wrestling movie” called Blood Circus. Either one of these would be laughable enough on its own, but the combination of the two is downright unnerving."

This is an excellent safety film for seatbelts. The cute little girl is now a 60-year-old beautiful lady who is the wife of a friend of mine. Even without riffing the short is hilarious. The film is posted on YouTube!

"Better Use of Leisure Time" is a short about how people today (1950's) have never had it so good. So if a teen has free time and they aren't doing some form of learning or labor then they're wasting their present and their future!

Parts of it feel prime for ripping while other parts feel like an unattainable punch to the gut. E.g., a house and a family on a single-income 40-hour a week job that allows the breadwinner time to cut out early for family and hobbies.

This cheesy 70's Star Trek ripoff is hilarious. It really has it coming!

Hardcastle and McCormick episodes or just pilot?

I love those "short features" that you do before a full length movie. That short with the Bill Baird marionettes was hysterical. I would love to see a short with just short features.

It’s an old Duke University video..its has to be seen to be believed. True nightmare fuel. Fantastically you can find it on amazon. It would make an epic riff.

Bridget and Mary Jo have done riffs on menstruation, the suburbs, and Tupperware, so they would be perfect to riff this early tribute to the shopping mall.

It's also in the public domain.

And it can be found here:

An amuse bouche of an idea of what this nonsense pilot episode of a failed sitcom that lasted ... one episode is about:
In Berlin, 1938, Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun have a love-hate relationship with their Jewish neighbours in this bizarre spoof of 'fifties American sitcoms.

Reasons to riff:
1) A.J. Foyt, and Parnelli Jones are in it.
2) It's pretty sucky
3) It's in color.

Short about the revival of Welsh clog dancing in 1959. Here is the YouTube link:

After Jennifer Garners Loses her Families to Latino gangsters she becomes a homeless street fighter to learn how to wage irregular asymmetrical warfare using small arms. If only it had aliens it would be semi-believable..

1. This was shown every year in my highschool. I recently found it again and it would absolutely tickle me to see this riffed by the hilarious folks whom I have loved since an early age.

2. There is a particular scene involving a chili dog where everyone in my high school audience would shout "THROW IT!".

3. Just watch it! It is delightfully terrible.

Jack Palance Angelina Jolie and Elias Koteas so bad it's good ****** to JCVD film Cyborg perfection the jokes will write themselves should be available reasonably

1957 video promoting air travel. Produced by Shell Oil. You did an earlier short on, I think, flight attendants which was hilarious. Have a go at this one! Link is here: https://youtu.be/qlPae2b9FVU

By the way...I am from Nebraska and the guided cave tours in Omaha are terrific.

I had this nightmare of a children's movie as a kid. It is definitely a trip. I think it, along with your guy's humor, would make a great Rifftrax short. Please consider.
