“Oh, hai Shark,” is a giant missed opportunity in theBig Sharktrailer. However, that is not to say that the first look at the horror movie from the creators ofThe Roomis bad. It looks pretty incredible and we can’t wait to see some more in the coming months. Seemingly out of nowhere, Tommy Wiseau revealed that he was working on the project about a giant killer shark and people are pretty excited to see what he comes up with this time.
TheBig Sharktrailer starts innocently enough with Tommy Wiseau’sRoomco-star Greg Sestero getting slapped in the face by two different women. It’s unclear what he did to deserve this reaction, but it comes out of nowhere and it’s rather uncomfortable, like the best parts ofThe Room. Soon after, we seeTommy Wiseau, Sestero, and Isaiah LaBorde leaving the bar/club atmosphere to go somewhere else. It’s now that we see the streets fill up with water and a giant shark attacks a woman behind the three men.
Thebad CGI sharkis definitely one of the more humorous things to hit the internet in some time. It literally looks like a shark that was designed by Tommy Wiseau or a five-year old after being given an iPad Pro and five minutes to create the epic vision.Big Sharkis still a mystery at this point in time and it’s believed that the movie hasn’t even started filming yet. The trailer was more than likely released to spread the word and potentially find someone to financially back the project.
Abootleg version of the Big Shark trailerpopped up on social media last week after theBig Sharktrailer played during a screening ofThe Room. It was the first time that the footage has been shown publicly and people were pretty excited about it, which is understandable after watching the full trailer online. After the screening, Tommy Wiseau revealed that the movie takes place in New Orleans because he was inspired by his time there and felt that he needed to give something back to the community.Big Sharklooks like a pretty great present and tribute to New Orleans.
Greg Sestero says thatBig Sharkis about three firefighters trying to save the world, which makes sense. While the movie has yet to be filmed, it is believed that it is gearing up for release in September of this year. No official release date has been announced, but we’re going to be keeping an eye out for it based on the strength of the first trailer. There will definitely be comparisons to theSharknadofranchise and possibly evenThe Megwhen all is said and done, but this is Tommy Wiseau that we’re talking about here, the only man who would release a movie calledBig Sharka month afterShark Week.
