How are the riff tracks written?
I'm assuming it's not a done cold on a first viewing, but is it done impromptu by the actors on a second/third viewing, or are they scripted in a writers room, or somewhere in between?

Usually they watched the movies in a combination of individual and group and come up with jokes on their own or as a whole and decide which get included.
I had heard in the MST3K days they just watched the film once dry, cracking wise and keeping the stuff that made everyone last. THEN they start writing the genius jokes, etc.

It's a combination. Or, well, was a combination. I have no idea how the new seasons are being done but I imagine it's similar.
Incidentally I had a couple of friends that ended up running local movie rental stores and they both managed to put together a small section of these kinds of movies.
Turns out sitting around with your friends watching terrible (ly great) B movies and cracking jokes for a few hours while getting boozy is a pretty fun time.
You can tell most of the stuff that’s off-the-cuff rather than obscure references is directed at things that are ridiculous at a glance and they fill in the spaces with stuff they had to think harder about

In college we even had a decal of the MST crew silhouettes we could stick on the TV for this exact purpose.

I got some rough financial news recently, so in order to keep my sanity I've had a little help from my robot friends.
I finished Beast of Hollow Mountain and Starcrash. Beast is a strange offering, because it almost feels like a 50's western love story that abruptly turns into a monster movie.
Starcrash was pure cheese popcorn and them making fun of the Southern accented robot provided some well-needed laughs. Christopher Plummer's dialogue made me want to fall asleep. Caroline Munro woke me up.
Nah she definitely loses clothing twice early in the movie. The prison camp uniform! And then she regains full body latex when she's rescued by Tough Action Tin-Acton Southern Robot L.
The BBFC (British Board of Film Classification) have classified five of the six Season 12 episodes, and in doing so made it clear what films they are. So, with appropriate warnings, here be spoilers
Experiment 1201: Mac and Me (1988)
Experiment 1202: Atlantic Rim (2013)
Experiment 1203: Lords of the Deep (1988)
Experiment 1204: The Day Time Ended (1980)
Experiment 1205: ???
Experiment 1206: Ator (1982)

1202 seems like an odd choice, since it's obviously a
mockbuster of Pacific Rim.
1206
was also a relatively recent RiffTrax release. Not that double-dipping doesn't happen, but it seems pretty soon after. I thought Ator was pretty dull compared to Cave Dwellers; let's hope the MST3K riff is better.
Paul Rudd has been trolling Conan for years. Every single time he’s a guest, he tells Conan he has a clip from his latest movie and it’s always the same scene from Mac and Me with the wheelchair kid falling off a cliff:

I had never seen Starcrash before, that was like watching a fever dream.

It’s not a very important country most of the time

Red Zone Cuba was amazing
Every time that guy trades his ring and someone riffs "what's the hole in it for?" I crack up
I couldn't follow it at all. TISCTSLABHMUZ was more comprehensible
I actually didn't mind the Commando Cody stuff much, but the movies? Woof.

Was it really that bad?
Thinkin' Warwilf kinda shit
I wonder if we'll get a Paul Rudd reference when they get to THAT SCENE?
Lately he seems to have upped his game and at least starts the real clip before it suddenly cuts to the wheelchair cliff scene again.
