1. Santa in Animal Land (1948)

   http://youtu.be/-cP3fJ_6VuY

   This short has all of the ingredients: bad puppeteering, corny dialogue and just overall cheesiness (although the puppets are kinda cute). This is more than worthy of a riff!

3. Downton Abbey

   Either the very first episode or the first season Christmas Episode. I think it has great opportunities for juxtaposing low brow humor with high brow etiquette.

4. the Mission Third Planet series

   Distributed by Coronet Films, an alien survey of Earth learns assorted facts about planets and animals with the help of an adorably dorky-looking robot. The ratio of aliens-and-robots frame tale content to actual educational content is unusually high.

5. Inside Out (The PIXAR Film)

   Since you mentioned Pixar films in your VODs and shorts, why not riff an actual Pixar film? (In fact, fans haven't seen any riff on a Disney movie in a long while since High School Musical. Maybe it would be your first animated full-length movie you have ever riffed.)

7. Yeti: Giant of the 20th Century

   Oh, yes, yes. A thousand times yes. At exactly 5 minutes in this movie starts thawing a yeti out of a block of ice... with flamethrowers. It's got dopey dialog, it's goofily acted, has a big derpy unscary monster, kids who I am pretty sure are going to get annoying and troublesome - probably release the monster or feed it after midnight or whatever - and it's Italian. Plus a bonus, according to the credits - The Theme "Yeti", played by "The Yetians".

9. The Most Important Person

   No, I'm not taking about what Kevin Murphy thinks of himself... or is it Bill Corbett? Or maybe Mary Jo? Bridget? Mike?

   Oh, well. No, this was a series of animated films back in the Seventies which dealt with issues such as emotions and health, but in a funny and goofy way. A lot better than Churchill Films' Feelings series, because they don't just drop you without an ending.

   So why should these shorts be riffed?

   (1) Made a whole lot of them than ACI Films did. Seriously, there were several shorts made, and I recall they used them first as a filler for Captain Kangaroo, then later in schools, where they eventually meandered to PBS/GRETA channels. Whereas ACI taught us how to make things out of garbage, and find abstract things in county fairs or numbers with turkeys, The TMIP films focus on things that children deal with like making mistakes, how the body works (no, seriously, but family-based), and the world around you. But in an animated, bizarre sort of way.. which leads to number two..

   (2) Teaching lessons with strange methods.. the one I recall was about teeth, but had the character going about claiming he was 'brushing his teeth,' by eating things you chew to keep them healthy. Another was about 'touching,' (which I've submitted the clip here) which taught kids it was okay to 'touch' things, which was odd because everywhere I used to go, they'd tell you NOT to touch things. Odd..

   (3) Amazingly bilingual: Thanks to Sesame Street and other PBS shows early on, TMIP has some kids in the show speaking Spanish as well as English, which isn't really a bad thing but you wonder why they switch between languages and wonder if you're watching a kid's show of if you stepped into a foreign film of sorts.

   Overall, TMIP wasn't bad, it however shows how ridiculous it was teaching our kids stuff in the Seventies through animation. Here's a clip from the series.. called Touching.

10. Lord Jim (1965)

    A movie so terribly dull and confused that only a hammy, lisping Eli Wallach as an Arab warlord can save it.

11. RiffTrax, please riff "Sudden Birth" (https://archive.org/details/sudden_birth)

    "Sudden Birth" (https://archive.org/details/sudden_birth). Why you ask?
    1.) It's a short educational film teaching police officers how to birth a baby. 2.) The film shows a live birth in the back seat of a car. 3.) the best advice the movie gives is to "hold on tight to the baby, they are slippery!" Thanks for considering!
    ps- I was at the State theater tonight and it was fantastic! I heart you all
    real hard!

13. Event Horizon

    Paul Anderson shoots things to look cool, but he has no grasp on how to modulate the visuals to carry the audience into the deepening nightmare of the plot.

14. Vampire Circus (1972)

    Many eagle-eyed Doctor Who fans will notice Lalla Ward (Romana II) stars in this one, and what a strange roller coaster ride this one is!

    Though no Bela Lugosi or Robert Patterson (thank god) is in this one, it does have a shape-changing vampire, a circus and a paranoid country which has a town under quarantine, due to a "plague." Not a curse, not by (obviously) vampires, but a plague. Spoiler alert: not dealing with the sharpest of the bunch in this place.

    But I'm getting ahead of myself.. the whole thing starts off with a woman cheating on her husband (one assumes) with a vampire (hey, why not?), just as things are getting interesting, the husband and villagers bust in (don'cha hate that, and how exactly do they always know where in these castles where they're at? Seriously.), and sis-ka-bob him without fail.

    But this vampire ain't going down, before he perishes, he claims the villagers shall pay with the lives of their children (like where have we heard this one before, eh?). So rather than burn the vampire, or have him conveniently turn to dust, they entomb him in a cave with the stake still in his heart (yeah, like THAT'S going to make him stay put.. Hey, like I said, not the sharpest knives in the drawer.)

    Years later, the village is quarantined due to a 'plague' that's killing off children surrounding the area (or something to that effect, the film's not to clear on this motive). And yet, a mysterious circus manages to get through and does all sort of trippy things to the villagers while killing off the young adults and kids.

    Of course, it isn't until after some desperate attempts to get outside help, and the fact the villagers' descendants are getting slaughtered (one hilarious moment is when one vampire transforms into a panther and crashes a party.) that they figure out the circus owner and the performers are vampires and they're attempting to revive their 'master.' (The cheating vampire from the first part of the film, natch).

    Not wanting to spoil the rest of the film, but what appears to be a somber movie, turns out to be prime riffing fodder for Mike, Kevin & Bill. I definitely hope RiffTrax selects this movie to riff on VOD or Live.

16. Pinocchio in Outer Space

    This 1965 movie is confusing in the most hilarious of ways - whether it's complete disregard for the 'show don't tell' rule of filmmaking, disorienting camera angles or tone changes from super cheery to super depressing out of nowhere. There's also a turtle which looks like a parrot and has the voice of Top Cat, giant crab fights on Mars and a mutant space whale.

    It's like an animated parody of old sci-fi B movies. These guys felt it was riff-able http://animatedanarchy.podbean.com/e/episode-09-pinocchio-in-outer-space/ and I agree with them.

17. RTVF 331

    It's a short film I found on YouTube.

    It is the absolute most hypnotically awkward thing you'll ever see, it is just begging to be riffed, and most importantly it says reuse allowed so rights won't be an issue.

18. Dead Rising: Watchtower

    It's a not-so-great zombie movie based off the Dead Rising video game series, hear me out. So there's a couple youtubers called the Game Grumps that's basically the video game equivalent of Rifftrax/MST3K. I know they were involved in the fundraiser to bring back MST3K so it wouldn't be unheard of to bring them in to riff on Dead Rising- particularly because they've played the original game on their show.
