Big Shark, a new film by Tommy Wiseau.

Our old friend Tommy Wiseau is making another movie, called Big Shark. It's about, you guessed it, a big shark.



Looks like it's trying to be one of those "intentionally bad" movies like Sharknado, but it's honestly hard to tell with Wiseau.

Tommy Wiseau should codirect this movie with James Nguyen. And then the pair of them should kiss with tongues, the way it was clearly always meant to be.

[EDIT: Hell, why not a three-way with the maladroit that done 'Sharknado'? C'mon, it's not like he's going to have lots of offers on the table, the sh*tbird slimescoop.]

^ There are half a dozen Sharknado films and a couple spin-offs, and related media. I think the Sharknado guy is secretly a genius.

I've seen 'Sharknado'. I can confirm that he is not at all a genius. Possibly the greatest exemplar of film-making anti-genius that has ever been.

There are arguments to be made for Ed Wood being a genius, Lloyd Kaufman being a genius, Roger Corman being a genius. Because there was a genuine love for cinema behind their works. None of them were purely cynical. Director of 'Sharknado' don't love cinema. Don't love money. He don't love anything. He is entropy made flesh. He exists to see all that is around him wither and decay. He stinks. 'Sharknado' stinks. 'Sharknado' guy is almost certainly Shaitan, that art the Devil, and I'm sick and tired of his bullsh*t.

sharknado is some cynical tongue in cheek ass bs, probably a lot like what this is going to be. too much has been made of the Room and Wiseau for this not to be a completely self-aware cynical cash in

an integral part of what made The Room funny is its sincerity, and there's no way that this could be sincere (I didnt watch the trailer)

The thing I liked about this thing is when the shark did that thing. That's about as specific as I'd like to get without
