Hiya, Traxians! 

We just announced more stretch goals over on Kickstarter, and we need your help for more! 

You probably know how frequently some movies get requested for us to riff, so we took some of the ones we know for sure would make great RiffTrax "Just the Jokes" titles - and we would love for you, dear Traxians, to help us select which one will be next! We'll make this the third and last MP3 stretch reward of the campaign.

We'll run the poll just until Friday at noon Pacific, so get your votes in soon!

I googled "the black hole movie" and a couple years popped up. Which black hole movie are we talking about?

Nick P

I like Willow!

Isaac Seawell

I've been dying for a Neverending Story riff for forever!

John Arlet

Cats as a movie is already a joke (and a bad one at that) so riffing anything else would be good.

Alexis Magazino

If they don’t do a riff of Cathy’s Curse one of these days I’m gonna be heartbroken.

Garance A Drosehn

Which version of "The Black Hole"? The one with Maximilian Schell and Anthony Perkins (1979), or the one with Malcolm McDowell and Dean Cain (2016)? It seems to be that either one of them would make for entertaining riffs.

Joey Martell

This is such a difficult choice!

David Ferreira

National Treasure - it's Indiana Jones without all that need for thinking.

Nathan

HACK THE PLANET!!!

Zerocool

So many good choices, but it's got to be Hackers, that movie was made for riffing.

Jesse Shade

Ooh boy, you're gonna try for CATS? I'm excited, but I'm sure you guys will be driven miserable. Then again, you did just experience THINGS, so maybe it'll be a cakewalk. Fun fact, I saw CATS in theaters right before the pandemic, and there were a bunch of drunk mom types in the theater dressed up as cats trying to do a RiffTrax or Rocky Horroe type thing of talking at the screen, and it ended with a man who sounded like Billy Eichner loudly berating them for ruining the film for the rest of us, which drew rapturous applause.

Tabby L Rose

Judge *unintelligible* Dredd and his twin brother "THE LAAAAAAAW! Rico, hands down, end of debate. Cats makes its own joke gravy. Please don't make us watch Cats again, fellow backers!

Melissa Crook

I would legit be happy with any of these. Except maybe Cats...

Chris Bellevie

I voted Black Hole (one of my fav movies ever!!!) but think I should change my vote to Judge Dredd just to help that beat Cats...

Noah K. Sturdevant

I picked Willow, because the last few years have been punishment enough.

Rebecca Beiderwell

The problem with Cats is then I would have to, in some capacity, watch Cats. I think I can handle Things but Cats? Not sure on that one...

David Jaffe

I've been trying to get my friend to watch Cats, but he's been ULTRA resistant. A rifftrax might help

Jeremy Rowland

My heart lies with Hackers but Judge Dredd will just be so great.

Wes Rowsdower

I would only say Neverending Story just to hear the guys break down during the Swamp of Sadness scene 😂 otherwise, I gotta go with Hackers!

Jeff

Chose Hacker for the nostalgia of silly 90s techno-thriller, but all of these would be fun!

rockandrollsteve

Cats is on par with Things as far as bad movies go

TnHorrorFan

Beast Beastmaster and willow 100% needed. Reckon with the new willow TV series it would be great to get the movie rigged up in hopes they will do the first ep of series as well.

Leighton Pritchard

Going to need more detail on *which* Space Jam this is ;)

Joshua L.

That feeling when the two you can't decide between are the two lowest in the poll. Oof.

Anne S

The Black Hole means we get to hear one of the best movie scores ever, at least!

Joshua L.

oh also I really feel like the original Dune movie is more deserving of a JtJ mp3, just sayin'

Machine Age Productions

Honestly prefer to NOT do Hackers. It's a genuinely good movie. Willow though? After hearing Mike and Connor slog through Shadow Moon, and hearing Willow referenced over and over throughout the years on MST and Rifftrax, it's gotta be Willow. But Beastmaster really feels up their alley too. Fits in well with Hawk the Slayer, Sword and the Sorcerer, Deathstalker, and the entire "painted on the side of a stoner van" genre of film.

Pete Nicholls

I’m feeling pretty jellicle today so I have one very important question—will this be the version of CATS with the CG butthole or without?!? As I said: a VERY important question!!

Shagz

For the love of God, don’t let it be Cats! I don’t want to have to purchase the movie to enjoy the Riffs!

Drew Curlee

I’d like to see RiffTrax’s take on Disney’s “The Black Hole,” personally. I found that on an old Siskel and Ebert PBS program, they both gave it a “no “rating.

Justin Wingate

I've voted for them all, but the Space Jam sounds like an awesome keeper.

andimalloutofbubblegum

Cats because it's the only way you'll get me to watch like Twilight and Transformers.

Sara Street

Beastmaster just has so much riffing potential I had to chose it.

Karl Hamann

I seem to be the only one infavor of Stargate!

amolove

hoping for Willow just for the Shadow Moon jokes

DalGoda

I voted for three was that allowed?

Jackalgirl

I know it's a close call between Cats and Judge Dredd, but seriously -- Dredd all the way!

Sarah Casa

OMG Hackers and Beastmaster, please!

Sukotto

Please not Cats, not because it doesn't deserve it or because you wouldn't do great with it, but because I don't want to have to ever watch Cats!! My wife put it on once and I made it 10 minutes before leaving the room without looking at her or uttering a word.

Jeff Gilbert

Cats. It's the only way I'll ever watch it outside of a rowdy midnight screening.

Jason Samuels

The Black Hole is interesting because it came from an experimental period where Disney's live action department hadn't pinned down a formula for what did and didn't work for them. They were just throwing ideas at the wall and seeing what might work. It's got a weird dark plot with a lot of nice practical effects for the time. If it had been made a few years later, it would have been released under the Touchstone banner.

Mathew Gillette

Daaaang these are really good choices! Even way beyond the last times list of choices!

Jason S Perry

All those who voted for Cats.. you do realize that means we actually would have to sit through it, right? I don't think I could do it. I really, really don't. Edit: Please, if possible... maybe as an additional stretch goal or two... take the top three? Right now that's Willow, Judge Dredd, and Cats.

MrTorso

Come on people it needs to be HACKERS!!

Mathew Gillette

I just watched THINGS! I gotta say the more SUPER LOW QUALITY movies I see the more I feel like making my own movies because I’m getting more confident I could definitely do better!

Jake Unrein

The only one of these I don't want to see riffed is cats. So of course it's the one that's winning.

Matt Stetz

I’m curious why nobody is interested in the Space Jam movie or Stargate.

Zerocool

Cats? You can't be serious 😞

Mathew Gillette

The 185 people who voted for cats are super sadistic and should be put on some sort of watchlist! Don’t let these 185 people near your pets 😂
