Rifftrax did a bad job with Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny,
there was a lot of stupid yelling that doesn't fit with
the movie. So cut out the stupid improv guys, you can
do better than that! You need to go back to writing out
your commentary out first.

I haven't seen the Ice Cream Bunny; I'm just not very good at
buying stuff online so I really feel better waiting for a live show or
at least a DVD to buy.

I've heard, though, about it.

It is a rifftrax DVD; I won't even consider a rifftrax
download, because downloads are a waste of money.

http://www.amazon.com/RiffTrax-Santa-Ice-Cream-Bunny/dp/B004 QZ6S4C/

Rifftrax DVDs have the great feature of including a non-riffed
audio track version too, so the rifftrax version or the movie with
the original audio could be considered a free bonus.

I can't even remotely agree. Firstly, IMHO, none of the lines sounded
improvised. Secondly, the parts where Kevin or Mike yelled at the
ridiculously bad costumes ruined the movie for you? Really? But more
importantly, this was a brilliant riff. Seriously, I've seen
practically every episode of MST3k and if this had aired in, say,
season 6, it would be one of those riffs that instantly leap into
people's minds when MST3k was mentioned, like Mitchell or Manos. I
enjoyed it that much.

Oh and hey Joseph. Long time, no see.

Hi there! Aw, man, too long, yes. Sorry I haven't been quicker
on the draw in answering but I've been out of my normal routine.

I just want to say that as far as the movie goes, "Santa and the ICB"
made "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" look like "It's a Wonderful
Life". And frankly, I don't blame Kevin for screaming.
