Sharknado

 Rating: 1/5 Panther Paws 

When a movie like this comes out, you don’t really know what to expect, do you? It could be a hilarious, silly shark and tornado movie, or, it could just be really, really bad. Sometimes it depends how you look at it. The story is about a guy who owns a bar on a beach in LA, divorced, and everything is going alright until, somehow, wait, is that right? A giant herd of sharks get picked up in a tornado?! There are so many things wrong with that statement. 

The guy decides to leave his bar, and drive away with one of his employees and a customer to go find his wife, daughter, and son to save them from the most unrealistic event in the history of existence. It seems as if this movie takes itself too seriously, when there’s a whole cliche emotional scene about whether or not he still cares about his family, or something like that. It really gets boring during those scenes because we came to watch sharks jumping out of tornados to eat people, not an emotionally distressed father. We didn’t want anything deep or thought-provoking, that’s not what its about, instead, we wanted the movie to know that it’s a cheaply made b-movie, made for tv, just to get tons of viewers, but it seems as if only the audience could make fun of it.

I would have loved this movie a whole lot more if the creators could just have made it fun, silly, and entertaining. Every once in a while, I did see that. There was one hilarious scene where someone fell out of a helicopter, right into a falling shark’s mouth, then later, after a series of events, was somehow rescued, totally intact. This is what I was looking for, so, make more of it in the sequel, PLEASE! It stars a very weak cast of Ian Ziering, Tara Reid, John Heard, and Cassandra Scerbo.

Pigs, Pigs, Pigs! By Rhianon

The pig races have come and gone again, to be back next year. Thank you to every single person who traded in ten or more tickets. That’s $100 that goes to funding to all the cool stuff we have in MVMS, including the iPads and all of the electives. This is the biggest fundraiser of the year here at MVMS. Every single ticket you sold helped your school be what it is. Also, congratulations to every person who got into the Grand Pig Pre . Getting to that annual race is a big accomplishment. It's fun because you help your school while having fun!
