Sea Spiders [1932]
Riff this short from 1932 ... a user on imdb says "We visit Tahiti, where small two-person boats are called sea spiders. Nature's bounty is everywhere: fish easy to spear, fruit ripe for gathering, and coconuts waiting for export. We watch the copra harvest. A child dances. Men dive for octopus. One stays down too long and must be rescued. Another's leg is grabbed by a huge clam, and he summons help with a rope tied to a sea spider where a friend sits. Calm restored, the sun sets on paradise."

Mickey Mouse: Seat Belt Expert
Co-produced by the infamous Coronet Films, this Disney live-action short teaches kids (and one negligent adult) the importance of wearing a seat belt. This short also makes liberal use of the following: the same Mickey Mouse costume you'd find at Disneyland; a little girl with the apparent power to absorb other people into her daydreams; a cameo by the protagonist of the classic short "Courtesy: A Good Egg-sample;" and, even some zoom-ins on our beloved mouse's crotch. This short just begs for a good riffing!

St. Louis Museum of Transportation Virtual Tour Video
This sounds weird (it's a lot of words) but it's soooo very riffable! I don't know what the copyright laws would require, but it's worth thinking about. For one thing, the camera is set on oscillating, for two, it keeps repeating the tour of the kiddie playroom a thousand times, and for three, the museum's not even that cool! It's really boring.
Mike, Kevin, Bill: PLEASE try this. I'm begging you. And if you can't actually riff it for real, at least watch and make fun of it for your own enjoyment.19 votes -

Andi Mack
Disney Channel's latest attempt at drama, this series centers around Andi Mack who learns that her sister is actually her mother (and no, she isn't both) on her 13th birthday. I only watched the first episode, but even that was too much. Seriously deserves to be riffed.

Gary Coleman For Safety's Sake (1986)
"Actor Gary Coleman appears in this instructional video designed to show children how to be safe and stay safe. Included are tips on accident prevention, how to stay safe when home alone, and other procedures that have been developed by the National Safety Council and the American Red Cross.
- Written by frankfob2@yahoo.com"Sounds as terrible as the above mention description implies.

Boy Meets Dog
Boy Meets Dog is a short cartoon released by Castle Films. It details a father mistreating his son, and dog, until having a dream that sets him straight. The dream is about how going to college has ruined him, and how Bristol-Myers Co toothpaste will solve all your woes!
It's an insane fever-dream, and I need Rifftrax to share in the insanity.

Otis (Episode One) [Interactive Movie]
There is an short movie here: https://www.nukhu.com/otis/ but with a twist: there are three character perspectives/narratives and you can switch the perspective of one of three people on the fly with the A, S, and D keys. I think this would make a great experiment for Rifftrax by splitting Mike, Kevin and Bill into the three character perspectives to riff each accordingly, maybe via a plug-in or a deal with the owner of the movie(s) (BTW, I spoke to the director/manager of the movie and he's really keen on the idea of Rifftrax riffing on them).
The movie is not…

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.

Marble countertop instructional video

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…

Let's Face It (1954 Federal Civil Defense Administration Short)
Have you ever questioned the economic validity of building an entire city just to blow it up? Have you ever wanted to test the validity of building an entire city just to blow it up?
The film that gave us the iconic stock footage of houses being blasted to smithereens and made us realize that the atomic bomb was more than just sending Indiana Jones helluva far in a refrigerator. Consider this for what would really happen to Bert the Turtle if he was in the vicinity of this force of radiation.
The three reasons why I suggest this film…
