Here's one that just HAD to be made...Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus...Lorenzo Lamas and Debbie Gibson (remember her?) Come on...as if a fear of flying wasn't enough...now giant sharks snatching 777s out of the sky...It's just too great.

Hate when that happens.
I enjoy a creature feature. Just saw Lake Placid (crocs) and liked it, especially the lovely Betty White calling the sheriff "officer fuckmeat" ha.
And when she says: "I'm rooting for the crocodile. I hope he swallows your friends whole. You might want to arrest me for that too. Is that a crime? To wish the chewing of law enforcement?"
She is so great.
I agree with what you said about the old models used in film prior to digitalization. I like the way they look. The plasticity (for lack of a better word) of current digital effects seems to render a visual uniformity or glaze to the films that use them. I did like the way the modeled look was virtualized in films like Tim Burton's "Mars Attacks" and "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow". I miss that look, and I'm certain today's digital effects will look every bit as dated as the old model effects.
