Ask Movie Slate - Shark Week - Shark Attack 3: Megalodon

Commissioned by

This one was a bit of a faff to come up with. The original idea was to follow the example established by the movie, and use the stock footage of sharks to then copy-paste Movie Slate on it, in the same sloppy amateurish fashion that this movie did. I refused to step down to such low standards, plus doing such a thing would make the picture an eye sore. So I picked a shot from the movie and recreated it in Photoshop with better definition, plus being able to see the brush strokes makes the picture feel a bit more organic. The idea of having Movie Slate use the Photoshop menu to edit out the shark came out later on as I was finishing the drawing. I thought it would be funny to see Movie trying to get out of the situation by simply editing out the problem. Then again, in order to do that we'd require a way to go back in time, and prevent this movie from being made.

"Shark Attack 3: Megalodon " is a piece of shit. There's no other way to put it, really, and I honestly don't even know where to start. The acting is atrocious, even for this type of movie. It's so bad I bet these aren't real human beings, but incredibly advanced automatons that have learned about human emotion by marathoning all of the Rankin/Bass movies. The story is impossible to get into, and makes absolute zero sense, since it's impossible to engage with anything or anyone that's in it. The sound mixing is beyond amateurish. It's like the filmmakers were making a bet to see who'd be the most incompetent at balancing the audio levels on this pile of manure. The voices always go one or two seconds before any of the characters opens their mouths, and the sound effects are repetitive and most likely taken from a free sound gallery website. And of course, the constant use of stock footage of sharks with the people edited over them to make it look like they're being attacked. You'd think that makes it almost worth checking out, but it isn't.

It's garbage. It's an hour and a half of your life you're never getting back. I rate it:

I hope you guys enjoy the picture!

Please, let me know what you think of it in the comments. I appreciate and every single one I receive.

Thank you!
