Captain America (1979)
The Following Special Presentation Episode #4
Posted Jul 19 2011 by Stan Ferguson

“They don’t get much cheesier or TV movie-er than 1979’s Captain America, starring Reb ‘Big McLargeHuge’ Brown as the Sentinel of Liberty. There’s no Red Skull or HYDRA or Cap getting entombed in a block of ice in this movie, just a big doof with overinflated biceps riding his motorcycle and battling Wink Martindale’s evil twin.”

The Film Crew: The Giant of Marathon (2007)
Posted Dec 18 2007 by Albert

"Contrary to what some might think, being a RiffTrax affiliate does not mean I get to borrow the Tom Servo puppet on weekends to show off at parties (it would make a great keg, too). I'm just a fan like everybody else, doing what I can to keep the home riffing fires burning. And despite having a similar concept, and featuring the same people, I think there's plenty of room in this world for both RiffTrax and the Film Crew."

Aquaman “Pilot”

"I expect the thinking went something like this: 'Look how much everyone drools over Tom Welling. And we make him wear a shirt!'"

Alexander the Great “Pilot”

UPDATED with new screecaps and new commentary!

“Hardly a full-tilt camp classic, but somewhat leaning in that direction thanks to the presence of Shatner and West and Cotten and Cassevetes all tramping around the desert in man-skirts and chest plates.”
