I wanna watch just for Cuban and Coulter

Sharknado 3

 This summer’s “Sharknado 3” will usher in the Cuban-Coulter administration.

The SyFy network said Monday that Dallas Mavericks owner and “Shark Tank” star Mark Cuban will play the president of the United States in the third installment of the goofy “Sharknado” TV movie series, set to premiere in July. Conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter will be his vice president.

The network previously said Bo Derek will have a cameo as star Tara Reid’s mother, Jerry Springer will play a tourist and ‘N Sync singer Chris Kirkpatrick will be a pool lifeguard.

This year the toothy storm terrorizes Washington, D.C., before moving down to Florida.

‘Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!’ circles July premiere date as toothiest summer event since ‘Jaws’

Quote
"Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!" will come hurtling out of the sky July 22.

Syfy, which announced the date and title Wednesday, is confident it can extend the shelf life of the campy cult fave to a remarkable third year with a guest star lineup that's as bizarre as the whole premise of sharks raining down on a major metropolitan area.

The main characters will return, with Tara Reid as April and Ian Ziering as Fin.

Ziering this year parlayed his reputation from the previous two "Sharknado" films into a spot on "Dancing With the Stars," which is presumably easier than dancing with the sharks.

Cassie Scerbo will return for "Sharknado 3" as Nova after missing out on the second round.

Syfy is also bolstering its bets by stocking the show with one of the oddest guest casts ever — and no guarantee which of them will survive this year's Sharknado, which is expected to land in Washington.

David Hasselhoff plays Fin's father, Gil. Bo Derek will portray April's mother, May. Ryan Newman is cast as April and Fin's daughter Claudia Shepard, and Jack Griffo will be Claudia's friend Billy.

Got my tickets for the Film Festival... holy cow, 275 bucks in total... like last year, it's more in a week then I'm spending on movie tickets for the rest of the year.  I've been hemorrhaging cash this month, I'm gonna be staying home for... well, summer, to make up for that.

Tell me about it.  I'm straight up misering for the forseeable future.  Ah well, I make it a point to only see movies I can't see in any other place... that's how I can justify.  Plus my schedule is so packed I'll just be living in the theater for a week.  I'm gonna need some serious sun and sh*t to compensate for that.

Not sure how I feel about this, there's a little more middle finger attitude than I would have expected.

I know how I feel about it... Meh. That guy, whoever he is, is not funny. Period.

Gawd, another lazy ass flick from the studios.

I'm trying to remember what else the writers did (Sweets from Bones being one of the writers).

Now I like Ed Helms, I like Christina Applegate, and I like the Vacation movies... but somehow I feel like... this could have felt much more unique.  I mean, what made the old National Lampoon movies great is that the scenes all seemed to be inspired by true stories, just cranked up to absurdity.  This flick (and to be fair, Vegas Vacation, which I actually kinda like) feels like it's just "a movie about a vacation."

I feel like you need that grounding in reality in order to make this feel right, and you just don't get that feeling from this trailer.

I went into this trailer with an open mind to at least give it a chance. Now, there were a couple of moments that did get a chuckle out of me, but by the end of the trailer I was left saying.....NO! For me it seems the only reason this new reboot exist is for the sole purpose of showing how different movies today are compared to the 80's. As if that has any kind of merit. I'm far from a prude. I'm pretty crass and speak my mind, but this just doesn't work in how they are "pushing the envelope" in their "crassness". I won't be seeing this in the theaters. Duh. Not sure if I will ever bother to check this out on DVD either. Only way I see that happening is if this is all that's available for pick up at the time.

I know I'll be making a fair amount of notes on this, so whenever it comes up on free streaming I'm sure I'll check it out and play with it.  I have been thinking "how would *I* do a Vacation movie?" for a while, so I would like to do a little compare/contrast.

With regards to checking it out. I will probably give the DVD a try. I remember I had very similar reaction to The Millers, which a little like this... A little. Trailer did nothing for me. But I wound up enjoying The Millers. Maybe, just maybe, this trailer is wrong.

Oh yeah, We're The Millers.  Maybe I'll do some kind of fusion with these two flicks when the time comes.  I just need something to contrast against it, you know?

Great... I'll be dead.

3-7 years for a Pixar movie?

I'm being a little grumpy this morning.

No, it is good news news for once on a sequel
