Marvel's The Black Panther

[JAWS]

Hey now, putting 47 Meters Down above The Shallows was just uncalled for, and not just because it sounds weird to say in a sentence, lol.

They are about the same to me. Both have their issues.. But 47 Meters down had the better ending (Dream sequence and all) which is where Shallows really let me down. Shallows had a much better main character.

 

[JAWS]

That movie did well enough for a sequel. 48 meters down. Not lying. That’s the title

Straight to video I assume?

Lol naming a movie about a giant shark meg. Such a intimidating name!

The Don would have been MUCH better...

Nope lol.

47 Meters Down was decent enough but it was no Shallows.

I still haven't been able to see The Reef yet.

There is JAWS, then there is The REEF, then there is Open Water, then there is 47 meters Down, then there is the Shallows, then there is Deep Blue Sea.. Then there is the rest..

I am guessing MEG will be at the same level as Deep Blue Sea.. Perhaps a fun film if I turn my brain off.. Which I have no problem doing for DBS

Jaws is obvious (though much of it is super dated for kids today) but eh, The Reef and Open Water to me were just low-budget slogs (marginal TV actors shivering and emoting) - whereas 47 MD and DBS were fun Friday night shark thrills (yes, brain off along with cellphone.)

The Shallows just wasn't what I had thought it was at all - which was Gravity with a shark, like a "real" existential drama-thriller involving a battle with a shark/inner demons instead of space survival. Instead it was very much just a hot girl in a wetsuit battling a CGI shark - and that ending was the dumbest thing I've seen in a long time (the chain, pulled down etc.) It was fine thrills, but I was expecting something totally different.

What was funny was this article in Wired magazine that came out at the time of Shallows saying DBS was the better movie which I didn't agree with at the time, but in retrospect do because Shallows didn't resonate for me (it would have been interesting to see a theatrical sequel to DBS to see how they'd do that movie today instead of that DBS2 Blu-Ray movie):

I would say The Shallows is the better made movie.. DBS is more fun and easier to watch.

Personally I feel there are two great Shark movies.. JAWS (Obviously) and The Reef. I get what you are saying about the low budget slog with that film but I got to me.. All that looking below and seeing nothing but Blue for miles and know there is **** out there that wants to eat you chills me to the bone.

Cut from the same cloth.

We will never agree on The Shallows or TLJ

Speaking of TLJ.. I have had it on Blu ray for 3 weeks and cant bring myself to watch it.. I have started it and I find myself hating everything about it. I really hate Rose and he judging everything face..

Do u guys think Disney will re-release 4K copies of the MCU collection?

I believe Guardians 2 was the first 4K release from Disney

I’ve purchased Steelbook Best Buy exclusives for the following releases

Only reason I am not purchasing digital copy’s of The First Avenger Thor etc etc is because I am hoping Disney repackages these Paramount releases and combo packs with 4K discs

Have you ever seen a shark while you're in the water? It's interesting (I've been surfing and had a fin pop up between me and the beach.)

I really need to check out Black water - the croc movie from the same low budget guys who did the Reef.

I thought you didn’t like this movie?

 

[Rulk]

Where did I say that?

I don’t think it’s the second coming of Roots

It’s still Marvel

I said it was up there with the first Thor not as good as Guardians but neither was Strange

Black Water was OK... Not as good as The Reef IMO but I could see people liking it more.

Interesting observation

All she does is scowl and judge.. That is her character.. Only time she smiles is when riding on stupid alien horses and dooming the rebellion so she can kiss Finn..

Excellent. I'll definitely be adding this to my Marvel collection.

I hope I still like this "over-hyped, bland, mediocre, SJW movement" film on a second viewing.
