RiffTrax Live: SHARKNADO
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VZ06BB6....._new_dp_review
Sharknado is the Springtime for Hitler of disaster movies, a joke that everyone wanted to be in on, after the fact. This modestly-budgeted, made-for-TV masterpiece of ridiculous action set pieces barely needs the riffing, 'cause it has everything: gratuitous bikini shots, bloody fight scenes in which dozens of CGI sharks are dispatched with everything from pool cues to bombs and chainsaws, a complete disregard for scientific fact, and, of course, Ian Ziering's greatest role since Biker Mice from Mars.
Mike, Kevin, and Bill hit their stride when Tara Reid (as Ziering's ex-wife) enters the picture; she gets the funniest and most merciless riffs, and if I wasn't busy laughing so hard, I might almost have a twinge of conscience about that. Before the feature, there's the short "A Case of Spring Fever," reprised from MST3K's tenth season, but with new and funnier jokes.
One reservation, though: I rented this in standard definition and watched it on an old laptop, and the video resolution was, frankly, terrible. Live and learn.

Then again, my dick is beautiful.
To quote one of my exes "You shouldn't be so hard on yourself appearance-wise, there's only ten inches of you anyone ever pays attention to anyway."

By the time I actually got Syfy, everything I did want to watch (hard-core science fiction) was long gone
