In Which the Universe Overheats From a Supernova of Awesomeness
Yes, this will be liveblogged as soon as it comes out in video. There is nothing wrong with a B-movie that knows it’s a B-movie. More importantly, there could possibly be nothing horrible about a movie with a GIANT OCTOPUS in it. It’s a known fact. (I am ignoring the fact that Lorenzo Lamas is a main character.)

Let us not forget that there is also a giant SHARK in it.
I’m coming up to Beaufort, you, Andrew and I should liveblog it together.

Um, hello? He was in Grease. Guaranteed A-list until the day he dies. And wasn’t he the Highlander on TV for awhile?

This is the greatest thing ever created by man or god. Giant octopus for the win.

I am going to mark the release date in my diary.
Note which animal is listed first in the IMDb keywords: Octopus | 3D | Shark | Giant Animal | Period In Title

OMFG. Any chance that the airplane in the trailer is the same one from ‘Snakes on a Plane’? For the record, Lorenzo Lamas was the star of a show called ‘Renegade’ – the plot had something to do with him being shirtless a lot and riding motorcycles. In grad school, my girlfriends and I used to watch it with the sound off, b/c the dialog was too awful.

I am quasi-seriously considered flying to North Carolina so that I can be part of this historic event.

Miriam. I have 2 guest beds, one of them has your name on it! Only $198 from San Diego to Raleigh http://www.continental.com/web/en-US/apps/booking/flight/searchResult1.aspx?SID=830DD52E88194A50859ECE3933E10A52
Then hitch a ride down with Craig! Southern Fried Scientist will keep you supplied with homebrew out of a coffee pot. Now you have no excuses.

How can it possibly be cheaper to fly to Raleigh from California than it is to fly to Raleigh from South Carolina? I’m driving, but still, what the hell?

When is the release date? I’ve got enough frequent flyer miles to get me to the East Coast.

Angelo, you need to sign in with a wordpress account or email address that is linked to your wordpress account (where you load up your picture)
Angelo It would be awesome if you visited! I have 2 extra beds for people that don’t mind 2 adorable toddlers screaming and running around at 7am. I think we might need to turn it into an Ocean Bloggers unconference!
Friday May 29th would be best. The release is May 19th. People have enjoyed camping out in my humongous backyard too.
Btw, the Kenney’s live by me, whom you should probably know.

Alas, can’t do the 29th as I shall be gallivanting through the eastern Sierras pretending to be a geologist. It grieves me that there is unlikely to be a weekend that I CAN make – cruise planning is HARD. Shall have to take NC visit raincheck, though I love the idea of an Ocean Bloggers unconference. When is the good time to go dive some wrecks?

Insert Will Ferrell into this Mega Shark movie and it instantly becomes a “blockbuster comedy hit”
