Talkin' RiffTrax: COPPER MOUNTAIN
Added 2021-11-25 00:33:05 +0000 UTCHowdy folks!
It's almost Thanksgiving here in the U.S., and to that end we'd like to not only extend our heartfelt thanks to you, dear Traxians, for all your support this year, and in the years past. But we'd additionally like to talk to you more about a turkey that also contains a turkey! That is, human-sized turkey called James "Jim" Carrey and his early role in this pseudo-commercial, Copper Mountain.
It's our latest feature-length riff (well, it's not quite feature-length, and only technically a film... both terms are probably stretching their definitions to their breaking points). This commercial-wearing-a-movie-suit dares to ask the tough questions: can something starring comedian Jim Carrey be unfunny in its natural state? How many songs is too many? And, has RiffTrax riffed anything like it before?
Mike, Kevin, and Bill sat down (or rather, continued standing) to find out. They discuss their findings and MORE in this episode of Talkin' RiffTrax. Enjoy!
Watch in the streaming player above or download this video here.
P.S. No Turkey Thursday this week, as we're out of the office for the holiday - but since it's the real Turkey Day, we hope you and your loved ones have a safe and happy one. We'll see you next week!

Everything's fine. Club med doesn't even have a resort on Copper Mountain anymore!

2021-11-29 03:25:13 +0000 UTCI was about to get mad about no nod to Dick Gautier and then a nod to Dick Gautier! He also apparently did voice work for the 80s version of both GI Joe and Transformers (I saw him at a BiMonSciFiCon doing a voice-mail message as one of his characters). Most importantly, he played the role of Batman in a 1973 PSA when Adam West didn't want the gig! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n00xZ_mKQgk
