THE JOURNEY: ABSOLUTION Scener party May 6th
Added 2021-05-05 21:53:39 +0000 UTCHi folks,
Your old pal Erik here. I've decided to continue the trend of "catching up on riffs I haven't seen" with another pick from the oeuvre of everyone's favorite interrobang-misusing director, David DeCoteau: The Journey: Absolution!
Yes, the director of A Talking Cat!?!, A Talking Pony!?! (not yet riffed, but we should probably get to it), Retro Puppet Master, and Santa's Summer House made a science fiction film starring Mario "A.C. Slater" Lopez. You know I love some cheesy sci-fi, so what do you say?
Please join me and your fellow Traxians on Scener over at The Traxian Room at 3:30pm Pacific Time / 6:30pm Eastern. I'll put the riff on via Vimeo, and we can laugh along together! This movie is rated TV-14-S for some language and nudity.
To join in the fun, when you see that we're Live on Scener, click Join Party and enter the code DECOTEAU to get in. As always, Google Chrome is required, along with the Scener extension.
Hope to see you there!
Erik
P.S. More news on the next Turkey Thursdays is coming soon. But just to give you a small taste, here are some options I'm kicking around - look for a formal poll in the near future:
- Mortal Kombat (1995) (HBO Max)
- Anaconda (HBO Max)
- Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (coming to Disney+ May 7th)
- Reign of Fire (Amazon Prime)
- The Sixth Sense (Amazon Prime)
- X-Men: The Last Stand (Disney+ mid-May)
P.P.S. Be sure to follow TheTraxianRoom on Scener, and then edit your Scener Profile to enable notifications so you can see whenever we schedule a new Watch Party. (You'll likely need to come back to Patreon to learn the current entry code.)

Hey Bill, that's really weird! We were all chatting, there were about 40 people total this time. It sounds like you may have encountered a bug. Would you mind emailing support@scener.com, and let them know about that? Also, please give the Discord integration a try. Discord is a chat application that you can run on a desktop or mobile. I'm usually in there, in the Traxians channel, while these shows are ongoing - it might be easier for us to try to troubleshoot this sort of thing through real-time Discord Chat. Here's info on how to do that: https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/212052266-Get-my-Discord-role. I'd also suggest, if this happens again, please try closing Scener, logging out and back in again, and then try rejoining. It definitely sounds like whatever happened was a Chat-specific bug and I'd like the Scener folks to figure out what happened; emailing them with your username and experience will be super valuable in that regard. Thanks, and my apologies!

2021-05-07 18:32:44 +0000 UTCAm I doomed to be frustrated? This time, I was able to watch the movie. I even logged into chat, but was all by myself. Only after the movie was over did I see for maybe 20 seconds others' comments in chat. No one ever responded to me. I said some very nice, complimentary things. but now I guess no one ever saw them? And does anyone ever read these comments?

2021-05-06 22:12:04 +0000 UTCMK or X-Men would be my choices. Never saw the Reign Of Fire Riff so, that'd be a great fallback. Thanks for keeping these going, Erik!

2021-05-05 22:17:14 +0000 UTCIf you're familiar with the RedLetterMedia review of Decoteau's "Bigfoot vs. D.B. Cooper", this is very much a "shirtless dudes" movie.

2021-05-05 22:00:10 +0000 UTCWe did, it was actually last year - but it's such a great flick on its own, and the riff is hilarious, I wouldn't mind watching it again.
