Look...up in the sky...it's a bird, it's a plane, it's....EWWWWWW!!!!!! It's Superman IV!
Well, this shirt's ruined.
Christopher Reeve trained for days to sleep-act through his 4th time donning the tights. Watch as he saves humanity from...themselves! Doesn't that sound exciting, and not the least bit patronizing? It's like the Walden of superhero movies, if Walden was written by an angry sociology major with a bong. After having the movie's anti-bad things, pro-good things message crammed down your throat, get ready for some perfunctory action!
With the help of a plucky homeless woman and 40 year old man named "Jimmy", Supes goes about saving the world from a male stripper with a scowl and Lee Press-On Nails while Gene Hackman collects a paycheck. Oh, and John Cryer is certainly in this movie.
Join the Disciples of Golan; comedians Matt McClowry, Adam Sokol, Pete Weiss, and Nate Fridson, as they wade through 85 semi-coherent minutes of grownups playing with action figures and re-emerge, cleansed, baptized, and unable to get that @#$%ing theme out of their heads. DUH-DAH DUUHHHH--DAH-DAH-DAH-DAH DUUUUUHHHH!!!!!!

Great first attempt, excellent synch, funny jokes, outstanding audio quality. I look forward to more iriffs to come.
I liked the sample so I will buy.
Excellent work, guys. My officemate and I laughed our collective asses off (nice Owen Hart reference... NOT too soon). Please, please, please do more.
Wonderful job.
Grats!

Wow what way to introduce yourself to the riffing world, a stellar effort, for me I is a solid 9.8 (which ranks it up there with many top 50 MST episodes!
This movie is perfect riffing fodder and makes me weep at how terrible it is but these guys made it the highlight of my weekend (and now i actually have to buy this awful dvd)
Keep up the good work!
This is one of the most painful movies for me to watch but you guys had me laughing the whole time. GREAT JOB!

Thanks to everyone for the kind response.
This is a very funny riff. My only real complaint is a lack of sync lines. The movie stayed synced up just fine but it would have been nice to have the lines just in case. Still, this is totally worth buying. Hope you guys do another riff.
