Guess who's back for the sequel...

I never saw the first one. Until tonight. I went to see the Rifftrax riffed version of Sharknado 1... oh, holy hell was that bad. And utterly hilarious.

I take back what I said upthread about it not being enjoyable. This is now my second favorite Rifftrax, right after Birdemic: Shock and Horror.

If you haven't seen Sharknado 1, go and see the Rifftrax version of it. It replays in theaters next week, and it's worth every penny.

I had planned to go last night, but our patching took longer than expected and I didn't get off work in time. I was wondering if it was worth going to the replay next week.

Thanks for the good words. I'm encouraged. Now to see if I can make THAT showtime...

Sharknado happens to be the latter.

It's just... awful. Which is why I never understood why Sharknado II was announced about a week after Sharknado was broadcast and they said it was well received.

And given how often it was rebroadcast on multiple channels (it seemed everyone had shown it multiple times), I thought it must've been something good.

But 15 minutes in, I turned off the dreck.

I mean, every channel had it on, multiple times, it was the talk of the town everywhere I went... and yet, I couldn't find anyone who liked it. Just lots of talk.

Edit: It feels like one year-long April Fool's joke, to be honest. And really, I do like dreck - it seems a lot of movies people hate, I end up liking. I've generated an interpretation of movie ratings - 2-3 stars is a show I'd really like, 1 is dreck, 4-5 are too heavy for entertainment.
Worf, the reason there a sequel is because it made money. There were midnight showing on the big screen in the US and Canada. All sold out. I think read that it made for around 200,000 and made back 15-20 million.

I had a cocktail at the local hipster bar called a Sharknado. It was very good... a more complex Zombie (which they also do, also good). Now I want to see the movie, but first I have to buy ten kinds of rum and these drinking vessels.
:up:

You know, I had seen Sharknado when it was originally on, but I swear, I must have slept for a half hour or more. I saw the Rifftrax Live encore, and don't remember

the girl falling out of the copter and into the shark's mouth[/quote]

That made the climax even more absurd.

Jason Priestly was great...

I can't believe I'm all set to record the sequel to possibly the worst movie I've ever sat through, but there it is. It's done. What the hell is wrong with me?
I'm recording the sequel and watching it live! I even bought a script used in production, will receive the blu ray, have a shark named after me and will get a special shout out on social media.

Probably not. You'll get the gist.

Also I'm not sure if this is a spoiler thread or not, so...

Holy cameo fest... In the first few minutes we get Wil Wheaton and Robert Hays (spoofing Airplane)!

Wonder what the celebrity cameo death count will be at the end.
