"U Make Me Feel" by MK2
Chelsea: I’d go down the Mariana Trench
Chelsea later in the episode: Deep water terrifies me
"Welcome to the Kill Count..." James.exe has stopped working
we could say James.exe has never stopped working
TheDisguise lol
No one:
James: *wElComE tO tHe kIlL cOunT*
Chelsea: wake up hon
“What do you think?”
“I think we’re dead meat”
*Real* dead meat.
YOU'RE DEAD MEAT!
Go ahead and laugh, you guys. But if I ever find the little bastards that did this,
*they're dead meat*
Welcome to the kill count were we...
i also watched the intro
I love how this podcast is just Chelsea fan-girling over Jason Statham and James encouraging every second of it haha :)
I know lol.
James is fangirling too though lol
How can you not, it's Jason Statham...so fun to watch tho
Like James said in the predator 2 kill count game recognizes game
We love a healthy and non-jealous relationship.. ❤️ Lol
Chelsea: Ruby Rose looks like a Resident Evil character.
Ruby Rose: *Is literally in a Resident Evil movie*
True, but the irony is gold.
Which one?
Hh Syn She had a supporting role in The Final Chapter.
I've been following Dead Meat for some time now and I've always been impressed with how much research goes into every episode. As a Cantonese speaker, I have mad respect for you being able to differentiate Mandarin from Cantonese instead of just calling it Chinese. Love from Hong Kong!
I’ll watch every podcast Chelsea, you always do a great job setting up these podcasts and I love the variety in topics🙏
Finally a comment about Chelsea. She works so hard on these and never gets the credit she deserves!
I agree!
Yes she does 🥰 They are perfect for escher
Do Friday the 13th vengeance
Periodtt
I'm glad y'all liked it. In the book, the Suyin character's father had built a 3/4 mile long, 1/4 mile long lagoon connected to the ocean, to study whales. They kill the Meg, and capture its pup. The Meg book series does largely revolve around Angel, the pup, in (and out) of the Lagoon, which is used as a major theme park
I still think about the scene of those boys who break in to see angel and they mess about tapping on the glass and angel crashes through and kills them. Would make a great scene in the the movie sequel.
James killed me at the beggining 😂😂😂
Kill Count for this week's podcast = 1
I want a tremors kill count
@@BillyBob-wg7yb Well we gotta keep waiting, since it's a soon-to-be 7 film series plus show.
First up on the kill count is James since he died of embarrassment. 😂
Hope we get a Supercut of every time James has called a dog a “good boy” 🐕
The Meg's trailer final shot looks like the Jaw's poster at an Arial view
I watched this with my friend and at one point I was like oh shit he’s in the water with the shark what’s he gonna do and he said he’s a Hollywood star he’ll figure something out
Is he your senpai?
@@kayozzy What.
youll get your rent when you fix this damn door! Give me rent!
L i L d r o p fix my damn door.
@@TysNewAccount He is a good boy. He must be in some kind of trouble
Megalodon: *exists*
2020: *ah yes, another part of my collection*
ghoulies would make a great addition
SCP-3000: exists
2020: This creature would make a fine addition to my collection.
so true
Nah, it's garbage.
Shark_Shield 25 Oh god, that would suck. Expecting a release of that horror by August 24th 😩 I'm joking, but am I?
The Meg was the last movie I got to see with my aunt before she passed away. I'll always remember her giggling whenever she got scared.
I’m sorry for your loss, but what a sweet memory you’ll always have of her ❤
@@DankrumStar She was an amazing woman and that is the very least of the great memories I have of her. Thank you for your sympathy.
I can imagine James playing Sea of Thieves and when he's just about to kill the Meg and it gets away he yells out, "To the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee!!"
But it has to be in Capt. Picard's voice.
why didn`t he do game play on the new predator game that came out earlier this year?
sea of thieves is sick
Fun fact: The actress who plays Laurie (the ex wife) is playing Sonya Blade in the live action Mortal Kombat movie coming out next year
I KNEW THE ACTRESS IN MK WAS FAMILIAR! She looked so familiar and it was killing me
I could have just a compilation of Chelsea saying "we're engaged and we like to get scared together" and James' reaction to it. It's so cute and I love it every time. You can tell how in love they are.
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that Lucy huddled underneath Chelsea's mic and blinking at the camera is the cutest Lucy appearance so far. 😍
I wish that, for once, James would end a kill count with “And this has been the murder add up”
"And this has been the life-termination by external forces addition!"
Yes
To anybody reading this, have a great day lmao
also I remember watching this movie when it first came out, was quite good tbh, give it a try lol
thx
Thanks. You too.
Thanks :)
Thanks
Thanks, you too
The whole movie I was waiting for Peter to shout "shut up" to the megalodon
The Meg got a lot of shit when it came out. I thought it was a pretty fun movie and gave me what I wanted out of a shark movie, granted I never read the books.
That's the problem. The tone between the sourcebooks and the movies are so vastly different, that they might as well be separate IPs.
Idk if the meg has books but jaws has books
The Meg was fun, not so much a scary Jaws type, but it had some scary moments and I liked the comedy
@@conorharris85 The Meg is a series of like 5 books. The Meg, The Trench, Primal Waters, Hell's Aquarium and Night Stalkers.
Kingman Highborn the 6th one is Meg:Generations, I got a signed copy. He’s also working on the 7th, Meg:Purgatory
"Be friends with us! We're nice!" That is the sweetest and funniest thing. And I absolutely believe it!
42:00 My teachers when they catch me writing something off topic on my paper
What
James reaction when lookin at his paper (James reaction is his teachers reaction)
It’s a shame the movie is mediocre. If it was an over-the-top, self aware B-movie, it would have been so much better. The books are just novelizations of B-movies. B-books, if you will. And they’re so enjoyable. Like James says, loosely based. The way they kill the Meg in this movie is alright, but in the book, he gets swallowed by the Meg in his submersible, gets out, and uses a Megalodon tooth to cut out the Meg’s heart
Fuck that the first book is awesome.. It has a meg vs t rex fight and meg vs helicopter... Plus the deep sea scenes where creepy as a motherfucker
Me: who threw down all the pallets!?!
The Meg:
of course it'd be the Meghead
Am I the only one here that never drops pallets and only use windows?
nice dbd joke lmao
dbd is sick game
Fun fact: one of my favourite hobbies is snuggling up on my couch with a blanket and google; The largest sea creatures to ever exist. I’m very scared of large sea creatures.
I got so addicted to D&D&D I can barely disassociate James and Chelsea with their characters
I’ve never been this early!!!

I went to school in Michigan (upper peninsula) my whole life and I've never heard of anyone getting their boaters safety license in school, which is surprising to me because that sounds like a great idea.
Before I actually start watching this, I just have to say:
"NOT YOU MEEEG!"
I hope everyone gets the reference, it's definitely horror-related.
DBD?
Sleep away camp
@@heetman4785 No, what's that?
@@metalhead41294 Correct!

“Welcome to the Kill Cou- oh wait”
26:30, I've seen Lucy for a few seconds and now my life is complete
Watch Jason Statham in homefront. He wears a wig when he plays a DEA agent who is undercover. He looks so strange!
Chelsea's Jason Stathem impression sounds like Werner Herzog
James: her hair and her uhhhh (motions to cheekbones)
Me: her beard
James: her cheekbones
Me: huh
Love that the dog lives honestly puts this creature feature on the top of my list that Meg could eat as many people as it wants as long as that dog makes it
One of the best feelings is seeing you guys uploaded The Meg, one of the worst feelings is seeing my phone is at 18% with no charger nearby
I'm excited for that "kill count" for Halloween kills, I'm sure James is gonna love it
Gonna wait a while bc it's been pushed back to 2021 so the kill count may not be till 2022.
So who am I
@@dontdiscriminatehateeveryo9263 true but it's worth the wait
@@turner3088 Should we revert the billy changes, mike?
@@domonkosrevay9423 AAAAAH I CAN'T ESCAPE IT WHYYYYY
I hope they're going to do Arachnophobia next. That movie haunted me as a child but now it's one of my guilty pleasures because of how campy it is. Easily my favorite John Goodman role.
Haha Chelsea.. 😂how do you survive the podcasts, you smile so much..
I would be cramping so bad lol.
Y'all actually made me wanna watch the movie lol
I would like the second movie to go tremors style and they start hunting them
Yeah
@Jennifer Vendryes Of it was an aircraft carrier then the A10s or whatever took there place would shred it with guns so powerful they require special engines to not get choked by the smoke.
We only malt 10% of the ocean so there could be deeper locations than the Mariana Trench
Malt?
I'm pretty sure that's incorrect. We've only explored 10% but we know what the ocean floor layout is like everywhere. That's how we even know how far down the trench goes.
That is not exactly correct.
@@alextorres4667 I'd like to understand the sequence of events that lead to mistakes like this.
Who else didn’t sleep at all yet? I’ll fall asleep to this. This podcast is like asmr to me
What time is it there?
Hey, have you guys covered The ByeBye Man, I just watched it and it was so goo- SIKE it was garbage, but you should cover it
I don't think they have but I know James has mentioned it offhand once or twice. (he doesn't like it)
@@themissinggene All the more reason to cover it tbh
So random, but the dog in The Meg and the dog in Jaws have the same name, so obvious reference there.
Ruby Rose, the actor who plays Jaxx, is genderfluid, and if you watch the movie again, you'll notice that Jaxx is never referred to with gender-specific pronouns, so that's actually super cool.
Also, as a shark lover, this has got to be my favorite shark movie. Not because I think megalodon is still alive (just no), but because it addresses the issue of finning, and at the end, when it comes to it, it's the regular sharks that kill the Meg and save the day. 11,417 sharks are killed by humans every HOUR. That's 100 million every year. Sharks are becoming endangered, with thresher sharks being particularly effected because of their large caudal fin (a fin that long makes a lot of soup, I guess). All three known species of thresher shark have been classified as vulnerable to extinction since 2007, and yet they are still considered a prized game fish in the USA as well as many other countries. The negative rhetoric surrounding sharks as a species has prevented them from getting the protection they so desperately need, and we, human beings, are quickly killing them off. The man who wrote the book that Jaws is based on has publicly apologized for contributing to the rapid extinction of one the oldest and most beautiful animals on our planet.
It's fine to be afraid of sharks. I'm afraid of cows for goodness sake (although cows kill 20 people every year, and there were only five people killed by sharks in 2019). Plenty of people are afraid of wolves, but wolves still have protection under The Endangered Species Act. My point is, just because something scares us, doesn't mean we have the right to wipe it off the planet.
This is the coolest damn comment on here. You wouldn’t happen to know any charities to donate to/volunteer for for shark preservation
The dog scenes reminded me of an old PC game, The Ship: Murder Party. At the end of the game the ship explodes and the dog (thought dead) is found swimming casually a little further away. The dog's appearance and position also seem pretty similar. I wonder if that was used as a reference for this movie.
I paid real dollars to see the Meg in theaters.
It was an outing with friends without my toddler so yeah, it was worth it
I love The Meg and it's funny how tired James was in the first few seconds of the video
I would have LOVED to sit with you guys for this as someone who’s read the whole Meg book series this was based on, and as someone who’s in school for environmental science/marine bio. Pointing out all the inconsistencies and crazy shit that happens between book and movie lol
Mate as you have read all the books and good with the film answer me a question that's bugging me. In the very beginning we do see it's a Meg that attacks the sub just before it blows up. But that we discover that these sharks have been trapped below a cloud so what was the one that attacked the sub in the opening of the movie above the cloud how did it supposedly get there? Thanks
Matthew Nott * claps hands together * Ok see in the books the submarines actually go down into Challengers Deep and in later books, below a canyon under the Philippine Plate where there’s prehistoric creatures still living (the location and evolution biology are made up and utter bullshit but that’s too long to fit it). Jonas was already a veteran sub diver and when the accident happened, it was only with 2-3 other people who died, not a lot, and in a small submersible. The hydrogen sulfide thermocline ‘cloud’ in the movie actually confuses me on how it’s even a thing; it does exist, but not like THAT in the movie. The hydrogen sulfide makes it INCREDIBLY toxic for any life to swim above AND below it, and making that hole in it with a sub would of actually killed or severely injury anything as large as the Meg. In the book it just frankly doesn’t exist, it was just freezing temperatures of the thermocline that kept the Megs down there, and the reason why the big female escaped (she was heavily pregnant then) was bc Jonas and the son of the Japanese billionaire who hired him caught a smaller male Meg they tangle up and she follows him (as bonus she kills the son) while the ship was pulling them above. The male’s blood was warmer than the surrounding water and the female got a lot of energy from eating him too so she was able to make it to the surface. She’d only attack whales/annoying humans at night bc her eyesight was terrible during the day, which the film misses completely since it’s all during the day. Anyways if that cloud was an update way to explain how these creatures would stay where they are but then not mention how the Navy sub Jonas was a part of encountering the first Meg, I honestly don’t know. They should of just dropped the liquified hydrogen sulfide and make it freezing temperatures (and make the big female blind during the day) and that would have made it better(?)
@@lagoonsnaps6917 thanks for answering that yeah I don't think the movie explanation was thought through to well unless they explain it better in a second movie thanks again.
Matthew Nott You’re welcome! Wonder what they’re gonna do bc the female didn’t give birth and her daughter Angel hasn’t been set up in the Jurassic World’s Mosasaur Enclosure? Ehh, idc I outgrew the Meg series
11:00 not sure if the time stamp is right, but when the sun explodes you see a silhouette of a shark blowing up.
I think the Meg shouldn’t be something for the kill count but I would like to see a Shark Themed Horror Movie for this years Shark Week on the Kill Count. Like maybe The Shallows or 47 Meters Down.
I loved the meg! I hope you guys do Underwater, that was also a great film, more on the horror side. Honestly, you should cover anything Lovecraftian. Last thing I remember is the lighthouse
Btw, the song is “beyond the sea”
Being a fan of the podcasts is a higher standard of following
This is giving me flashbacks to 7th grade science class where my teacher called it the “marinara trench” 😅
Sad we didn’t unlock the summer James outfit like last summer 😳
I'm a fellow Detroiter y'all!!! Hope you guys are doing well! I haven't seen this one yet but I definitely intend to.
I wanted to do a poster of this movie, but with Meg from Family Guy. I still plan on it, I just forgot for a bit. LOL
I watched this movie 50 days in a row while in quarantine. I even had a Dead Meat inspired watch called “The Spill Count” (Day 7) where I counted every time a character fell into the water.
Seeing that you guys did this movie for the podcast literally made my day, and I’m so glad you got such a kick out of it!
(I blogged about it on themegandme.com)
I love the intro to the podcast so much i just replay it like 6 times.
This movie got me into film school, I watched it about 17 times then wrote my college essay about it. 3 weeks later I get my acceptance letter
Thats awsome dude!!!!congrats!!!!!
Congrats!!! I’m sorry corona kinda messed up your college experience
Aimee G. I moved into my dorm two weeks ago and things are going pretty well actually, but I wish classes weren’t online
Gibby yeah online classes are hard to deal with
Idk if others are doing this but because the kill counts coming out are part of a series, I'm waiting for them all to come out so I can binge watch them. That might be why views are lower
When James mentions the idea of another billionare getting a hold of what the original cast found/ Chelsea mentioning the idea of a theme park around the Meg, I started to think of Statham appearing in court like Ian Malcolm did in Jurassic World trying to shut down the idea. 😂😂
In the novel series, they do succeed in creating a "Sea World" around another Meg.
First time watching a podcast or even listening to one enjoyed it a lot.
Hey James I broke my foot a few days ago and I’ve known about your channel since 2017 and I’ve watched almost all of your video and I’ve rewatched all of your videos and I’ve fallen in love with horror all over again so thank you so much
Okay?
I hope your foot heals well :/
Theres a whole series of Meg novels following Jonas Taylor, including one involving both megalodons AND kronosauruses so theres a lot of weird shit you could do.
'Ruby Rose is in the uncanny valley' made me spit my drink out of my nose.
You guys.... first of all, you could cover the tedium of paint drying and I would still be here watching enraptured. Thanks for all you do and the break from mental tedium that quarantine is starting to become. I appreciate you both and the joy you bring to the masses!
I’ve been skipping these since I found this channel, just cause I loved the kill counts and thought that these were just “filler” of sorts. Just decided to watch this cause I’ve got nothing better to do and holy hell have I been missing something. Thanks for the next 10 hours of viewing pleasure
Lol dude there like a hundred of these podcast episodes so its more like hundreds of hours of viewing pleasure. Enjoy :D
Please do a kill count for “Train To Busan” I’d love to see it!
This aged poorly
I read The Meg in my Marine Science class back in high school in 2007 and remember my teacher said that there was a movie in the works. Well it happened after 11 years and I still need to see it lol.
Also like EVERY PODCAST I've listened to said that Jason's and Li's characters needed to BANG so much. The How Did This Get Made podcast did a great episode about it too.
Do yourself a favor and don't. It's like reading Jaws the book and the movie being turned into Sharknado.
I have a real love for shark movies. Even the really low budget bad ones. Sharks hold a very special place in my heart so seeing so many movies about them is so fun. Also sequel idea: their is a book called Hell's aquarium. Its about a giant aquarium that has a megalodon if I remember the plot correctly.
It's not my birthday but I'd like James to notice me :')
Is he your senpai?
@@aguy4124 GOSH DARNIT i was just about to say that
Today is my birthday
No shit we all would
awildmrmeme happy birthday
Here’s a cake 🎂
James: WeLcOmE tO tHe KilL cOuNt
Chelsea: ummmmm
If I remember right, in the book, Jonas pilots his sub into the megs mouth, gets out the sub and tears its heart out with his bare hands. I could so see statham doing that
I just watched this film for the first time last week. Excellent timing, you guys! I love the podcast so much.
Chelsea Rebecca? More like "Thirsty" Rebecca, amiright?
I actually saw this move after my senior homecoming with a group of my friends in a dollar theater past midnight and it was the best! But all I ever wanted was for the Meg to eat a helicopter and I don’t think it ever happened.
Saw the Meg in theatres while on vacation with my family. Loved it!
Hey James, if you wanna kill a Megalodon in Sea of Thieves, the best way is to just drop anchor and fight it, if you’re not doing that already. If you fight it while on the move, you risk passing close to an island or some other landmass, and if you do that it’ll automatically disengage and swim off.
The thing about them blaming him is they didn't see the sub explode. They are in a sub and therefore surrounded by metal so didn't know that the sub blew up behind them.
They would have definitely felt and heard it being that close. A ship on the surface kilometers away felt when the Kursk had torpedoes explode inside it, so an entire sub from that close would be impossible to miss even if you couldn't see it
Chelsea is trying to say being bald is cool, James is like "shhhh no it's not we have KEEPS as a sponsor girl..."
"i had em and i let him gooo" LOL
Good morning from NC. This is just what I need for my laundry/ cleaning day.
Chelsea and James just seem like the coolest, nicest people ever!!
“Welcome To the Kill Count.” What a way to start it off man that was awesome Lol
This movie is the definition of summer blockbuster.
I'm 99% sure the dog being named Pippin is a Jaws reference, as right before Alex Kitner gets attacked, there is a guy playing fetch with his dog around the water, and it is implied to dog gets eaten since we see him repeatedly calling out for the dog, while the piece of wood the dog was fetching is floating in the water. The dog's name in that case was also Pippin.
I just woke up and grabbed my phone to see this and I’m so happy 😌😌
“Welcome to the kill count where we-“ 😶
You guys should review Crawl as part of the creature feature summer! Love the podcast, I watch every episode, you do an amazing job Chelsea
the boat license thing is no longer a thing in Michigan btw
James
your channel is the best and when's you next wrong turn
Yaas I love those movies

Hearing them talk about private companies not having to follow rules while diving deep after experiencing water gate feels weird lol
The 3-D aspect really helped Avatar IMO get to that 2.6 billion mark. I don’t know if people went to watch it 2-3 times I sure didn’t to help inflate numbers. Endgame was great and deserving of the highest grossing film ever and should have won some visual effects awards with that brilliant team they had working on that film. Growing up loving and drawing marvel comics since the early 90’s. Seeing that depiction on screen is something I’d never thought I would see. Russo brothers did an amazing job.
I read the books by Steve Alten and loved them. I waited for the movie for years with anticipation, and HATED IT!! I was disappointed beyond belief but what should have I expected. But on the bright side your podcast was excellent as always:)!!
When i heard Jason Statham was cast as Jonas I had hopes. Statham is always great but this was a super disappointment after the book.
The plot is barebones in the movie. Laurie not being a hated character, no terrifying night type boat kills, not enough into Jonas’s original mission, No Tj Tanaka,. The first 3 to 4 books had a lot of tension and danger to them. That being said I watch this movie almost nightly and can quote most of it.
Hello James been watching you since I was nine 😁 and the og Friday the 13 th love the vids
I'm gonna go watch FROGS because I don't want you guys to stop exploring unknown horror movies. Actually, my favorite thing about this channel, as a horror fan, is discovering horror classics and horror gems! Love y'all!!
I loved this movie. I read all the books by Alten (The Loch was awesome) and it was nice to see a movie based on his stuff. Biggest change from his books? All the characters are really likeable. Even Heller who was pretty dickish has a great face turn. "You're a good person Jaxx..." Awesome. There is so much from his books to work with. Hope to see more
