Sharknado - Has anyone seen it?

by bhb001 Thu 18 Jul 2013, 1:14 pm

Has anyone seen Sharknado?

"the cable disaster flick about a freak tornado which triggers scores of man-eating fish to rain down on the residents of Los Angeles."

Apparently it sent twitter into a tail spin and a sequel has even been commissioned. Is it as bad as it seems? Or just a bit of fun ala Snakes on a Plane?

I haven't seen it but I have heard lots about it.

I know Tara Reid is in it and she has to be the most woodenest of all wooden actresses to grace the screen. Relatively attractive though, so shes not all bad.

Do you find Tara Reid relatively attractive?

I'm not, so I doubt superfly is either.

Just nothing better or remotely approaching!!

No shame in that mate. Quantity over quality.

I too have the gift of site, Tina. Tara Reid is indeed, "relatively attractive".

by The Boss Thu 18 Jul 2013, 2:25 pm

Well in this economic climate ya shouldn't be rubbing the rest of our faces in that 'gift', super

Scary.

by **superflyweight** Thu 18 Jul 2013, 2:53 pm

Why did I spell it "site"? What a dik!

Personally would reserve judgement on Reid until I have heard Michaels assessment as it is a racing cert he will have had her.

by The Boss Thu 18 Jul 2013, 3:01 pm

Is she Clarkson's ex?

More chance of him having stuck it to Mike Reid.

Sounds like a real B-picture................Promise me Godzilla makes a guest appearance and I'll take red adair.......

I think that is being a little kind to it really. But a low budget B-movie can be lots of fun if approached right so I don't really want to pre-judge

Looks a bit downmarket for a clever chap like myself, I prefer more serious motion pictures such as this:

Superb. We have a winner. Thanks for that Galted. Is it to late for an Oscar!!

by JDizzle Thu 18 Jul 2013, 9:49 pm

What with everyone here being well versed in the cinematic industry, I assume we've all viewed the greatest scene in movie history?

Just had a look at the JDizzle and Mr Bounce posts.

Jesus.

This is on SYFY Sky channel 114 tomorrow (wednesday 7th Aug) night at 9pm

by XR Wed 07 Aug 2013, 12:58 pm

Won't compare to MEGA SHARK VS CROCOSAURUS.

SyFy haas the best films

by **Enforcer** Thu 08 Aug 2013, 9:23 am

Thanks for the heads up for that Kenny.

Some of the worst acting I've ever seen, a terrible plot, a script that was probably written in half an hour and set pieces that looked ridiculous. I loved it. I always enjoy a terrible monster movie and this ticked all the boxes.

Tara Reid looks awful these days. Don't do drugs kids.

That was almost certainly the highlight of the film Gazzy! I'm glad I didn't know that was going to happen as it would have spoilt the shock that a writer thought that was a good idea.

Luckily the drugs don't seem to have affected her cognitive ability. Or do they...?

Having just caught up with this thread, the film was indeed awesome.

And I think Tino means he fancies his relatives or something like that

by Shot 21 LCFC Tue 13 Aug 2013, 10:35 am

I watched this film last night and I will never be the same again. The chainsaw-your-way-out-of-the-shark scene was awe-inspiring.

This film just HAS to be watched!!!!

by bhb001 Tue 13 Aug 2013, 12:25 pm

I know what you mean. The way he picked exactly the right shark to jump down to save the girl makes you just want to believe!!

by **Galted** Thu 22 Aug 2013, 9:44 am

Not sure if this one actually exists but looks a little bit dire...

I do have a cousin who is very attractive. I wouldn't say I fancy her, but I wouldn't turn down the chance to rummage through her underwear drawer either.

by Guest Thu 22 Aug 2013, 10:03 am

Only got to the bit where a guy clubbed a shark with a bar stool and another blew up a shark with an oxygen tank and the resulting carnage left the shark looking like a a 1920's exploding cigar.

Couldn't really get to grips with the fact that from one angle the sun was cracking the flags and it was relatively nice weather yet fifteen seconds later there were waves 200 feet high crashing around and hurling ferris wheels into buildings.

Utter dross and not something I feel I need to punish myself with by watching.

Not been to Barrow I take it. On the odd occasion you can see the sun through the horizontal rain that is.
