What is iRiffs?

Think you have the chops to make a RiffTrax?

Just create and upload your humorous commentaries on anything, set your price, and we'll do the rest by hosting and distributing your content. You'll even get your very own product page to promote your iRiff. Best of all, you share in the sales of your iRiff! We will feature the best tracks on the RiffTrax home page and the funniest stuff will rise to the top based on our user comments and star rating system.

We'll be having contests with cash prizes, and the best iRiffs' artists will get invited to work with Mike Nelson and the RiffTrax guys, and get paid to make a RiffTrax Presents!

Q: What is an iRiff?

A: An iRiff is a home-made audio commentary that you can upload to the RiffTrax Store and sell to our thousands of daily visitors. You'll make 50% of the net revenue your iRiff generates, paid in quarterly installments on balances over $25.

Q: What do the different formats, NTSC and PAL, mean?

A: The short answer is that NTSC files are for people in North America, including the United States and Canada. PAL files are for users in regions other than Region 1, such as the United Kingdom and Australia. The long answer has to do with technical specifications of each format. NTSC and PAL have different framerates - meaning a PAL video actually is a bit faster than its NTSC counterpart, making it somewhat shorter. It's difficult to notice unless you have two versions of the same movie (or audio file) playing side-by-side; but eventually you'll notice the PAL version being ahead of the NTSC version. Sometimes the difference is as much as a few minutes! If you find that your mp3 file is constantly out of sync with the DVD you're watching, first make sure that you've downloaded the correct format of mp3 (NTSC for Region 1, PAL for elsewhere) and then check other things, such as the DVD version (Collector's Edition, Director's Cut, etc.) is correct for that mp3 file. These details are usually found on the product page. For more information on NTSC, as well as a list of countries that use it, click here. For PAL information use this link.

iRIFF BY: Raven's Riffs (Mar 3 2009 - 1:35am)

Do janitors really have anything better to do than to repair windows?  How does a high school prank end in murder?  What does a turtle have to do with your safety?  Did you know that a newspaper can save your life?

There are many riffs of Twilight but this one is mine.  And Twilight ain't your parents vampire movie.  In fact, some may argue that it's not a vampire movie at all.  It could be viewed as "The most epic Romance since Titanic"-according to Hollywood.com or it could be viewed as an instructional video for those want to make the ability to win a staring contest into a career.  Then again, it could be both.

Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan has it all: slam-bang space battle action; a clash of hero and villain both larger than life; resonant themes of revenge, age and renewal, friendship, and sacrifice. Lots of people say it's the best Trek movie ever made. 

Think it's too good to make fun of?  Think again!

C'mon, mind-control earslugs?  The Duel of the Hams?  The Shat That Roared?  Oh, we're gonna have fun with this, boys and girls.

Josh Way riffs this 1965 Sci-Fi "classic," featuring badly dubbed Russian astronauts, a highly impractical robot named John, and just a hint of Basil Rathbone for seasoning. An excursion to the planet Venus reveals the startling truth - that even in space, boring things are lame.

Back in 1977, an unknown little indie picture named Star Wars was quietly released.  It was a critical and box-office failure and has been criminally ignored ever since.  Now it’s time to dust off this obscure gem and give it the attention it deserves.

Josh Way takes on this public domain film!

Fun With Flicks: The Wasp Woman

Roger Corman’s THE WASP WOMAN tells the oh-so-progressive story of Janice Starlin (Susan Cabot), a successful-but-aging cosmetics executive who is destroyed by her own obsession with youth and beauty (SPOILER, by the way).

Josh Way takes on this public domain short!

An uncompromising look at the world of bland adolescent dating rituals. Woody wants to take Ann to the “Hi-Teen Carnival,” but may only do so under the strictest of conditions. Asking her to go with him, for example, is not permissible. Apparently it is an unforgivable offense to ask a girl a direct question. The date does take place, against all odds, and the teeners attend a rave more wild and debauched than anything the denizens of Zion could imagine.* Urban legend holds that this short was written by Ed Wood, though I’d say it’s far too well plotted.

Once upon a time in the seventies, a science fiction movie arrived in theaters that redefined what movies could be.  It was exciting, magical, overwhelming!  That movie, of course, was Star Wars...then Paramount asked "What do we have that we can use to milk these sci-fi fans dry with?"

Thus Star Trek made its debut in film with Star Trek:  The Motion Picture, a story so big, so massive, so filled with endless repetitive and slow paced minature effects shots, that it took the big screen to hold it all.

Gotta Catch 'Em All? Not anymore! Pokèmon: The 2000th Movie takes on one of the greatest evils that man has unleashed upon the world: collecting! Pokèmon aren't something to be collected like plushies or trading cards! In other news, the Pope has denounced Catholicism and PETA is finally getting behind wild dog fights.

iRIFF BY: Team Swizzlebeef (May 15 2009 - 10:38pm)

Jean's brother Steve is bringing his roommate home from college.  They're having a party, and it just has to turn out right!  This 1950 educational film warns us that our party will be a disaster without careful library research.  This is Team Swizzlebeef's long-awaited debut.

Please note: this is perhaps the only iRiff featuring bacon, furries, and a panda.
