Meg 2: The Trench: Great movie idea, or the greatest movie idea?

Jason Statham vs. a giant shark….again. Truly we live in an age of wonders.

It looks brain-melting stupid, or in other words, perfect! I can’t wait!

I really like The Meg as a Saturday afternoon popcorn flick. I don’t have particularly high hopes for the sequel, but I’ll definitely give it a watch. I don’t see Ruby Rose in the credits though, I thought she was good as Jaxx the station engineer.

That has to be the best use of Barracuda in … well … ever.

Certainly a better choice than Baby Shark.

another fun, stay away from the beach movie. i do like they have the prehistoric part that was in the book.

the other movie had bits and bobs from all books, and changes in some of the characters. i’m sure this one will as well.

Uh-oh, looks like there might be a little competition in the oceanic horror category this summer. I see that Tommy Wiseau has a new movie coming out: Big Shark.

Sharky! You’re tearing me apart!

I know I’ll watch it. Statham carries every action movie he’s in, so I know it’ll be fun.

They call me the shark, I come out after dark…

And he’s 55 (like Vin Diesel). I’m reminded that Danny Glover, at only 41, was “too old for this shit.” The action movie career isn’t as short as it used to be.

An actual scientist reacts to the Meg 2 trailer.

Ooohhhh…will it have the absolutely necessary shirtless Jason Statham scene in this movie, too?

Wait - not only was there a book, but you actually read it? Are you one of those people that takes the hit so other people don’t have to?

Statham is a weird actor for me. I don’t think he’s good and his movies are not exactly Oscar material, yet I’ve still watched a bunch of them and don’t regret the time wasted.

There are 6 books in the series. They do get a bit over the top…the movies have taken bits and bob and changed up some characters.

If I remember properly, an sdmb member has a character named after them in one of mr Alten’s non-Meg books.

So we might eventually get the Meg0verse?

It worked for the jurassic series.

Dude’s wearing a long-sleeved baggy sweater in every scene, many at the beach and one riding a jet-ski. I’m thinking they didn’t spring for a personal trainer on this one.

What?!? This is an outrage! Outrage, I tell you!!!

Depends how long ago he did the latest F&F movie, I guess.
