It's one of those movies that tries to be so bad it's good like The Room or Birdemic, but to make one of those movies you can't be trying to make it.
As a "bad movie", Sharknado was okay. I personally admire it as a case study on today's iGeneration as it is probably one of the first films to be promoted solely on viral internet videos. And it worked. The fact that I was hyped and pumped proves that. It's also got its redeeming qualities. A Good Bad Movie weans some form of comedic value because of how terrible it is. That or the bad was intentional. The Room is irredeemable. It shows none of those qualities whatsoever.
aw man, it's like they were thinking "how can we make the viewers hate this movie more?"
I never watched the movie, tbh, it's on netflix annnd I've eyed it many times, but from all the stuff I've heard, I probably never will watch it.
I'm just saying that if you're planning to watch Sharknado for the Sharknado, prepare the be disappointed. But in itself, it's still a pretty funny flick if you're a riffer or just looking for something silly to watch on a saturday night.
Why did they choose Los Angeles? New York is much better for disasters, godzillas, tsunamis, sandstorms, aliens, sharks, zombies, dinosaurs, robots... You know... These things that kill people.
Duh. It's set in Cali because Cali has SURFING. And our protagonist is a SURFER! And he uses his surfing knowledge to predict when the waves of an intercity turnpike is going to appear, timing it right so he can drive
through them where many have failed. He also apparently knows that the tornadoes are actually waterspouts but doesn't explain how the waterspouts can carry the fucking sharks!
Fuck! I can write an entire rant about this movie. It's just that bad XD
