Sharknado

http://screencrush.com/sharknado/

When a freak hurricane swamps Los Angeles, thousands of sharks terrorize the waterlogged populace. And when the high-speed winds form tornadoes in the desert, nature’s deadliest killer rules water, land, and air.

Is this based on a true story?

Re: Sharknado

When I first read the title, I thought it was going to be about a Mexican Shark that moves in with a normal, suburban family. Hijinks ensue. The Mexican Shark would be played by Adam Sandler, of course.

Re: Sharknado

I read the thread title as "Snarknado," which would also probably be awesome.

Here's the trailer if you haven't seen it. It's hilarious.

Re: Sharknado

Love the picture TGM. Beware of sharknados everybody.

That was awful. I loved it. These movies are so silly and fun, and I got a sweet spot for them. I cannot wait to see what they come up with next.

Re: Sharknado

That was hilariously bad, yet awesome.

Just all out lunacy from The Asylum. Premise was absurd, special effects were horrible.

at the big final sequence when Ian Ziering flew into the open mouth of the flying shark and then just a chain saw and cut his way out of it. That was awesome.

3 big things I learned from the 2 hours:

1) Tara Reid can still get work.

2) Ian Ziering looks pretty good for age 49

3) 90210 residuals must suck ass if he needs to take a job like this.

Shawn Ryan, the creator of The Shield, did live Twitter commentary during the 2 hours. It was an awesome read while watching the episode.

Re: Sharknado

Tornadoes and sharks are scary things. Tornadoes filled with sharks is genius!

Can't wait to see it. I love crap.

According to IMDB, the budget was $1 million.

It's funny, because he looked too old to be playing a high school student on 90210. But it's like he hasn't aged at all since.
