    Pippet is the name of the dog that was in Jaws. I believe it was a black lab. It was just in one beach scene where some guy was calling for his missing dog. There was a stick floating in the water he was playing catch with. Here, to pay homage, the named that tiny little dog Pippet too.

    I like that while this movie has some of the outrageous and comedic moments that so many shark movies do, it also has grounded characters with heartfelt moments. Several of the deaths in this movie are able to succeed at making you feel sad for the characters

  • @mundanepants

    This movie was really slept on. It's so funny and just the right balance of exciting and dramatic and it KNOWS the tropes. So you get the set up, the expectation, and then just the right amount of subversion.

    • @theaikidoka
      @theaikidoka 9 місяців тому +1

      You think so? I really disagree - it's got some great imagery, but this seems like a very self-serious movie to me. Pretty much all the main plot points are predictable, there aren't any clever twists. Sorry if you like it, I'm not trying to ruin it for you.

    Like many others have said, the dog was a nod to Jaws. My guess is that the dog survives because he was so small, he just got brushed aside by the wave rather than getting swallowed

      The Abyss isn't scary per se, and it certainly doesn't have very many jump scares other than the obvious ones you can see coming a mile away. I think Nikki might have had an easier time with that one. Now a movie like, The Sphere or Deep Star Six, might be more fun for them to watch for scares lol Also if we really wanna freak Nikki out where she will NEVER go in the water again - they should watch Pirahna 3D lol

    I lost a bet and had to watch Sharknado with my niece. The bet was only for the first ten minutes but I just kept watching.

    In case no one else points it out, the portrayal of the Megalodon is far bigger than it was in real life.
    And if you watch the sequel, it was not around in the time of the Dinosaurs.
    And as a final word. Since the only evidence of it's existence are it's teeth. There is no evidence whatsoever that Megalodon resembles a Great White Shark.
    Which is what everyone assumes, since both have teeth which are triangular in shape and have serrated edges.

      @@SilentBob731correct! Humans kill an estimated 100 million sharks every year. That rounds out to almost 274,000 sharks every day, or over 11,000 sharks every hour, or about three sharks every second. So just think - during this reaction video, almost 11000 sharks were killed. Movies like Jaws and the Meg are fun for entertainment but also unfortunately feed this kind of behavior. 😢🦈

    Fun Fact: "Pippin" in the name of the original dog that got taken in Jaws. Also the little fat boy is supposed to represent the boy that got taken on the raft in the same movie.

    I Can't wait for you to see the sequel. it turns up the insanity to 11.
    This movie I had been waiting for literally over 20 years. the first book in the Meg series was published in the 90's and the author, Steve Alten, had been pushing hard for a film version to get made. Sadly every time it kept ending up in development hell. It got close to being made once, but then Deep Blue Sea came out, and not only stepped on this films toes, but also failed at the box office, which killed development. Finally they were able to get this made, and now a sequel, and hopefully the rest of the series gets made.
    I think the film does a good job of adapting the book. there are alot of changes, but most are either not that big of a deal, or in many cases, actually made the story better. the ex-wife character was changed completely. she was an utter b**** in the book, and you were glad when got eaten. (the dog pippin actually belonged to her in the book, and i THINK it survived, too, tho i could be wrong)
    the "twist" was kind of there. in the book it was originally jonas, and terry's brother that go to the trench (terry was what sunyin's character was named in the book, they made her and her family chinese for the film cause they funded the movie). they in the gliders that you see, tho they were tethered to the ship. they get attacked, the brother gets killed and the meg gets tangled in the wreckage of his sub as it gets pulled up the surface. just before hitting that layer is when the much larger meg comes in and starts eating the tangled one. the warm blood from the smaller meg protecting it from the colder water above the layer. thats how it gets free.
    the other change, which i wish they kept in this movie (tho its mentioned in the sequel), the reason the shark had been so ravenous was that it was a she, and she was pregnant. she gives birth just before the final confrontation, and the book ends with a scene of them capturing the baby (Angel) to take back to their oceanographic institute. Angel (named Haiqi in the sequel film) ends up being one of my favorite things in the series.
    I get why they cut the scene, because they weren't sure they were going to get to make a sequel, but it still would have been nice to see it in this film.
