The Best of Rifftrax - Super Argo

[@VortexBunche]

I begged my mother to take me to see this in the theater when I was five (1970). My mother is now 85 years old and enduring lung cancer, but she still complains about this film with more vitriol than she expresses over having cancer. (Yes, I'm serious.)

[@rachelalicea500]

I feel like that's appropriate, all things considered.

[@Nightweaver1]

"What the hell, Argo?! You're bulletproof!" That had me laughing so hard that I woke up my mom at 4am.

[@ZehnWaters]

It’s a valid complaint! Why dodge when you can block for others.

[@skug9bob]

"He has surpassed his teacher - now he can do as much damage as a six-year old with a baseball!"

"So far, his powers are being rude, and pushy, and refusing to explain stuff." "It's like he got bitten by a radioactive DMV employee." Damn, I love these guys!

"She has resting dominatrix face" --Bill Is there something you're trying to tell us there, Bill?!

This is what happens when you put 60s Batman, The Green Hornet, and Europe in a blender.

[@gabrielboorom9778]

Superargo- who talks, falls asleep and, when the going gets rough, levitates a little. Eat your heart out, Superman.

[@TheRogueWolf]

"What's with all the signs saying 'Obey' and 'Consume'?" BEAUTIFUL "They Live" reference there!

[@tomspiegel5322]

"What the hell Argo, you're bulletproof!" Good God. XD

[@schwarzebaron77]

Just the suit. Given to him in the first sequel kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5fNZHmZrt6Mmc0 In addition to healing factor before Marvel's Wolverine.

[@graciegj63]

Argo being the Guy from Harlem would have been the Shaymalan level of twists. :D

[@Nickel_The_Wise]

It's the Crimson Executioner in his Supersonic Man jammies, staying over at the Pumaman's co-op!

[@ManaAdvent]

Man, Argo's costume makes Puma Man's more subtle.

[@DoctorInk20]

I 100% unironically love Super Argo's costume. 😆 It's so evocative of the Phantom and proto-superhero pulp. The mask gives off a vibe of Alex Ross's Batman, too. Might actually see if I can get this film somewhere.

1:12. Might be my favorite bad movie line ever. He's not in Miami on vacation, but "for the sword fishing". Can't stop laughing at that one.

[@Monkofmagnesia]

This made me go to the website and purchase the full version.

[@schwarzebaron77]

You need to watch the prequel first, so you can understand some of the dialog, ie. "They name stars that are not in the movie". Had they seen the prequel they would know he was talking about Superargo's friend who he saved during the war, and later became head of the Secret Service.

[@jondunmore4268]

That's just what they WANT you to do!...

The laughs the guys do at 1:24 just makes me smile cause they crack each other up as well, greatness.

i saw this on tv syndication when ,i would say i was 8 years ago, so i KNEW i didn't imagine this!!

Bo and Luke Duke from The Dukes of Hazard. Their car the General Lee was and still is pretty much an icon of cool cars

[@rjg7112]

Like with "Super Sonic Man" that came after it, a loveable bad Euro super hero movie for me. Made even easier to watch with a comedy commentary by the folks at Rifftrax.

[@PhilBagels]

Normal-sized guys with normal faces, Yeah, I guess that's close enough to "Faceless Giants".

[@jonathanbethards3689]

Their helmets reminded me of Zaphod Beeblebrox's "thinking cap" from Hitchhiker's Guide

[@PIXPromosMore]

I applaud their restraint, not One single Ben Affleck joke.

[@protonjones54]

Restraint? PFFT. Okay first off, these guys can easily come up with enough jokes to fill an entire novel before mentioning Batman. Second, this isn't even the full version of the Riff.

[@PIXPromosMore]

1. Batman was actually the Furthest thing from my mind, I was talking about the movie he won Best Picture for, called "Argo" (which is FAR better than any Superhero movie, Good or Bad). 2. I'm aware this isn't the full movie (which I didn't see yet). The fact that there aren't any "Argo"/Affleck jokes in this sample alone is achievement enough--I half-expect at least one somewhere in the full version if/when I actually see it.

[@protonjones54]

PIX Promos & More Yeah, perhaps they could've done a Ben Affleck joke that involved Argo and Batman at the same time, as the title being Super Argo and the main character being a retarded version of Batman.

[@AlmostWorthless]

They only made one in the full version: "Super Argo is the 16-bit version of that Ben Affleck movie".

I used to frequent a site called Encyclopedia Obscura, a site dedicated to covering weird crap. Like, for instance, Superargo. Not this movie, but the first Superargo movie, Superargo contro Diabolikus. It was also pretty messed up. Sadly, the site no longer exists. Not unless you use the Wayback Machine.
