[@LeoFan93]

The perfect timing for a rerelease. Lawrence, KS resident here. I'm sad to report that Centron's studios, known as Oldfather Studios following the sale of the building to KU, was torn down very recently to make way for more college apartments. One of the theaters here also screened the film last week in memory of Oldfather Studios and ol' Herk himself. It's also kinda surreal seeing these old shots of Lawrence back in the day. I pass by both the church and Mary's house on the way to work, for example. That's right, Mary never left Lawrence! The drag race scene? That's Clinton Parkway they start off on; right near the biomedical wing of KU. The garage where Mary visits is now a military recruiting office. In fact, that garage was just a block away from the church!

[@ZERO_O7X]

Lawrence really is a cute little town. I've only been once in 2007 for a big scooter rally in KC, and we did a ride all the way to Lawrence one day and I loved it. Would have been a great place to attend college for sure.

[@TheRogueWolf]

As an uncle, I can attest: There are no non-weird uncles.

[@dsprocks]

@@TheRogueWolf I think it's a base phenomenon of guys just being guys having specific particular interests and hobbies; you can only invest so much time in your hobbies and interests so often times that's all you see from your relatives that you barely visit but occasionally for brief periods of time, thus you have the "weird uncle" that really likes model trains or computers or what have you, it's just a man being a man, nothing weird about it. I can attest as an uncle myself, I'm just a normal guy that my niece pretty much only ever sees either making food or doing work with animals so I'm probably going to become that "weird" uncle that plays disc golf and handles snakes, how bizarre XD

Her character is written bizarrely with her interactions with him.

I’ll be honest…I was an MST3K fan and never heard of Rifftrax until I met Mike, Kevin, and Bill at SDCC. Joel, the originator, laid the foundation, and I have fond memories of Comedy Central. Mike…he was an acquired taste in his own right, but for me he landed it with “Beginning of the End.” But I’d like to see a 3 riffer edition of XXX and 5th Element. Nestor worked out for you as a solo project, but rifftrax works out best with at least 2 pros in there. Kevin…always THE Servo. Bill…well, I got introduced to the SciFi era, so, like Mike with the host, you were an acquired taste until “I was a teenage werewolf.” And to be honest…Trace gave you a really high bar to clear. But you cleared it.
