Sharknado


It's like they watched the Incredible Crew's "Torcanoquake Blizvalanche Fireicanebees" and thought "Hey, Good idea!"

Is it wrong that my first thought was "Now how do I stat that up as a Pathfinder encounter..."?

I don't know what your problems are, these movies are great. I'm sure I've laughed at more horrendous attempts at horror, but for the life of me I can't think of any. I didn't get to watch this one, unfortunately (though I did see Sharktopus) because it came on the same time as Burn Notice, and I'm not missing Bruce.

Good man. We've gotta watch that this morning before my roommate goes out of town for the weekend.

Yeah, they just remind me of 50's sci-fi movies. I don't see the problem; they're intended to be cheesy and once you accept that and watch them for what they are, they can be fairly entertaining.

I think an Octonado would be more terrifying with all them suction-cupped tentacles swirling around.

That wouldn't fly on Shark-week however.

Just finished watching this. In short, it was the greatest thing I'd ever watched. It was a lot like a comic book, where things for the most part look like real life, but the physics are just all over the place that there's absolutely no way to take it serious. I mean, there are twenty foot sharks easily swimming around fully submerged in shin deep water, a house on a hill top gets flooded by torrential rain fall, but besides the rain there's barely any water outside, and my favorite of a beretta shooting a thousand pound shark out of the air in a tornado. That gun had kick. I can't wait for Sharknado 2.

I liked how the sharks dropped out of the air as they were shot, like birds (rather than wind-swept shark debris).

You think twenty foot sharks in shin deep water is bad? How about twenty foot sharks in buckets being used in a bikini car wash, or fire suppression systems in buildings, or slip and slides?

They had a shark movie marathon yesterday, and were advertising for Ghost Shark

That is amazing...

Still not as hilarious a concept as Sharknado though.

Love the sound effect they used where his head falls back down and is impaled on the bottle.

The difference is that we're supposed to believe the sharks in Sharknado are just regular sharks who just happen to be swept up in the biggest storm of all time and eventually in a tornado being thrown around. With a Ghost Shark, it can do whatever it feels like so it showing up in buckets and stuff is ... I want to say more believable but considering the movies ... Either way can't wait for that train wreck.

Besides, Sharknado and Ghost Shark are still more believable movies than Ashton Kutcher as Steve Jobs.

So I saw Ghost Shark. It was part of a Shark Movie Marathon, along with Sharknado, Sharktopus and Jersey Shore Shark Attack.

Almost peed myself laughing. When did the Sci Fi channel become this amazing?
