IMDB was brilliant, then they attempted to jazz it up with a garish redesign and now it just looks trashy. Fucked up aesthetics aside, it remains the best online-source for all things cinema. Providing you avoid the humourless inanity of the discussion boards you’ll find loads of amazing stuff, the best of which is the goofs section, containing every fuck up, major and minor, ever committed to celluloid. I guess the best one I’ve ever come across was a scene from this film, alluringly titled Shark Attack 3 Megalodon. Lame innuendo lover John Barrowman was the ‘star’ and as a result of a spontaneous attempt to elicit a reaction from his co-star, THIS HAPPENED?!?!
They removed the unironic po-faced description from the goofs section (probs because it said pussy which is a bad word) but the clip survives, much like the scene itself which was left untouched in the editing suite. Kept in for shameless publicity baiting purposes of course, but it shows the film was self-consciously artless and it deserves some props for that. Take note Michael Bay.
