It...It is a thing of great beauty. There are no words to properly describe it.

I know what I'll be doing next Thursday at 9:00! :teddyr:
Just when I thought they were running out of ideas! And they dug up Tara from out of a drunken grave!
I'm so excited for this!
I hope it's somehow worse than I expect it to be.

And
that, ladies and gentlemen, is what the badmovies.org thing is all about!
When Hollywood sends us a S$!*storm, we face the wind and say 'Bring it!' :bouncegiggle:
I posted a drinking game for Sharknado on Facebook for Drinking Cinema. Please feel free to play along! : D
------------------------------------------------
Drinking Cinema Mini Game: SHARKNADO
1. Shark Bite!
2. Explosion!
3. Chainsaw!
4. Anna Nicole Sm... I mean, Tara Reid is worried!
------------------------------------------------
Good thing I don't drink or I would by TOTALLY wasted by now!!
The SHARKNADO drinking game. You're gonna need a bigger keg.
I watched this on SyFy last night. It was hilariously awesome (in the worst possible way).
Good Lord, time has not been kind to Tara Reid. Thankfully they gave us Cassie Scerbo, who played the shotgun-toting waitress chick, to ogle.
Well, this movie made the front page of MSN.com. I guess this now means its gonna be "cool" to watch and rag on films from The Asylum. I don't know whether to giggle or vomit.
I would have thought "Jersey Shore Shark Attack" would have been the one to b***hslap the mindless masses to attention.
Oh well....
Why so angry?
Your rant needs complete thoughts.

Ummm...not angry. But it is always nice to be told how I feel. I apparently lack the ability to understand my feelings. Thank you, Puma81.
Before anyone asks, yes, I do passive/aggressive much.
Since you felt my "rant" didn't have complete thoughts, let me be more "complete":
The general viewing public has started taking notice of the abundant silliness of movies from The Asylum. This leaves me torn between two reactions--giggling, because it means more people may get introduced to the wonderful world of "bad movies" which is always a cause for delight; or vomiting, because there are always the "hipster" types who jump on bandwagons like this and will try to tell people like myself that I have no idea what a "real" bad movie is, in spite of the fact I started watching crap films when I was 5 and I'm now 50 with a library of over 4,000 movies and a good 75% or more would fall into the "crap" catagory.
The second comment explained: Given the brainless interest in "reality" nonsense like "The Jersey Shore", I would have thought "Jersey Shore Shark Attack" would have caught the public's attention and introduced The Asylum films to the masses. Perhaps they thought it was meant to be serious, and it takes "Sharknado" for them to finally see how over-the-top The Asylum films are.
I will attempt to remember to construct a thesis statement with a minimum of 3 supporting arguements when making comments in the future.
May I have my demerits noted so I may go watch the rugby match, Headmaster?
Now a bad pair of points, actually.
The movie 'attention grab' was the topic a local radio show yesterday. Engendered a whole hour of 'what's the weirdest movie you've seen recently', so there is hope.

I could be wrong but I don't think "Jersey Shore Shark Attack" was an Asylum flick. It did copy their formula pretty convincingly, however (i.e. has-been d-list celebrities, cheap CGI, outrageous/ridiculous plot, etc.).

Spot on, good sir. It was a "SyFy" film that cloned the whole look of The Asylum films. Up to, and including, the whole "you gotta be freaking kidding, right?" quality.
Given the directer also did "Chupacabra Terror", The Asylum should assimilate him into their rather warped hive consciousness.
Still, I would have thought it would have went bigger than it did. Maybe if Snooki had sex with the shark....<shudder> Poor, poor shark.
As much as it seems completely ridiculous to get irritated by "bandwagon hipsters" getting interested in bad movies, I completely understand. I'm the same way with music. It's hard to tolerate when great things are being appreciated for their popularity and not their qualities. Outspoken amateurs with unwarranted confidence in their own opinions are a pain in everyone's ass, no matter what field of interest it is.
But you know what else is just as bad? ...Elitists.
Everyone deserves a voice. Let's keep $#!t friendly, and watch some bad movies, eh? :cheers:

HAHA, you should be a writer! I can just see the shark slipping under the covers when the lights are off, and Snooki saying some great line like "Oh, Jeremy, have you been working out? Your abs are so FIRM!"

That is disturbing in
SO many ways. Which is why it would sell.
You mean this?
