Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water, we learn there will be a Sharknado 3:
Syfy’s Sharknado 3 has elected a new president and vice president.
Mark Cuban and Ann Coulter have joined the growing list of guest stars for the third TV movie in the phenomenon, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. Launching in July, Sharknado 3 will be set in Washington, D.C., this time and, per Syfy, will “cause mass destruction in the nation’s capital” before it roars down the Eastern Seaboard.
Entrepreneur/Dallas Mavericks owner Cuban of Shark Tank will play the president, while conservative commentator/author Coulter will play the vp.
They join a rapidly growing list of guest stars set to cameo in the third film, including Bo Derek as May, the mother to star Tara Reid’s April; Jerry Springer, appearing as Mr. White, a manic tourist; ‘N Sync’s Chris Kirkpatrick as a pool lifeguard; and Chris Jericho, who will play Bruce, a roller-coaster ride operator.
What does Sharknado 3 have in common with the Congress? Both “cause mass destruction in the nation’s capital”.
Now I have four reasons not to watch it. Make that seven reasons.
The list of movies I need to avoid is growing rapidly.
SN3 has been know about for some time. They were filming here in Orlando recently.
And you’re missing out on the Sharknado movies: They’ve been a giant mess of awesome sauce with liberal amounts of HOLY SHIT thrown in. The second one was about as good as the first (they missed an obvious gag with Tara Reid’s character after she lost an arm to a shark on the jet plane*) but it was pretty damned spectacular.
There’s something to be said for a product that knows exactly what it is, and tries to meet all its requirements without getting pretentious or froo-froo.
* Yes, the plane was in the air at the time, and no, the shark had not been on the plane to start with. ‘Cause that’s how Sharknado movies roll!
