HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Benas Mcloughlin Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Roman Jones Humor is a difficult thing to master. You can have a joke and tell it in such a way that it either makes the listener pee their pants with laughter, wince in discomfort, or sigh in apathy. All the same joke, just different ways of telling it. Something very simple can ruin a joke: poor timing; not knowing that the word "porn" is not a punch line to everything and shouldn't be treated as such; that falling off a small ledge isn't funny without proper setup; that simple announcing you're gay isn't funny without some kind of context; and so forth.Some people don't understand that there is an entire art to comedy. Louis CK can tell a story about getting a hand job and it's hilarious. Dane Cook did the same thing and it's lame. Andy Kaufman ate a bowl of ice cream and it was brilliant. Tom Green ate a bowl of cereal and no one cared. Tripping the Rift wants to do shock comedy, but it doesn't understand the first thing about comedy. It's the Dane Cook and Tom Green of cg animated shows.
imdbjeff Not too bad altogether. The cgi is good. Middle of the road edginess. The Choode character is basically Duckman with a bit more of a spine. Even the voice sounds the same. They have just started showing the first season here in Canada and they've already trotted out the dark clowns in just about every episode. Gershon's voice over is improving as time goes by. I hate Stuttering John and if the ship undergoes a voice modulation, that would be fine with me.There's a decided lack of imagination being exhibited here but it doesn't stop it from being entertaining in a sophomoric way. Doesn't move very far outside its orbit on any occasion. They could really do something with this if they stepped outside the box a little, but it stands on its own for entertainment value as it is.
nfuller Wednesday, October 5, 2005 – Tripping the Rift This program was described as "'South Park' in space." I would agree with this. This isn't saying much, however, since I think "South Park" is mostly crap.Another way of saying this is "'Futurama' without the intellectual content or likable characters." Maybe the characters are not developed yet; I have to admit that I didn't like the characters of Mulder and Scully when I first saw "The X-Files." Still, what's up with the gay robot? I don't find any humor in "Tripping the Rift" as I do in "The X-Files." Again, I didn't see the humor in "The X-Files" when I first saw it."Tripping the Rift" makes some references to other science fiction icons like Star Trek, Star Wars and 2001: A Space Odyssey. In the episode I saw, it also made reference to Dune, Jurassic Park and The Attack of the 50-foot Woman.
maffelu This is some good stuff. Totally chaotic sci-fi series, animated, with a three eyed wobbley alien head character name Chode that cruises around in space with his crew of mentally unstable retards! A bit kinky sometimes, but I think it has a little something for everyone...The animations are really good looking, and I don't know how serious they were when they produced it, but it's very profesional.You should see the original episode where Chode by accident goes back in time and lands his ship on God, killing him. A normal film would show the tragedy in a world without God, but not this series. Without God, there is no Satan, and without satan, people don't know how to be mean, except for Chode who was there when God was killed, and remember how it was before that. Devious as he is, he uses it in the way he find suiting. A great little part is when a reporter for the tv-news reports as he's being raped and don't really understand why, but keeps reporting.The animators of this series should start animating porn or real erotic animated movies.
