Weekend Discussion Thread: When the Riffers Interact with (or block) the Screen

Alert reader Susan suggests:

What’s your favorite instance of Joel, Mike, or the bots reaching up and touching the screen, as a sort of visual riff? Mine is in the classic “Space Mutiny” when Mike reaches up and feels our hero’s bulging biceps.

I want to include anytime the riffers were up out of their seats in this. My favorite is Mike and Tom taking a spin around the dance floor during “The Starfighters.”

What’s your favorite?
