Perhaps you’ll recall that Disney had actually optioned the title as far back as the 90’s, and it’s been sitting at the bottom of the development-hell ocean for decades. Imagine my absolute delight when word […]

Sharks are perennially a sure thing when it comes to pop culture. Every year we get Shark Week, and SYFY still laughs all the way to the bank every time they kick out another Sharknado film. So when something like The Meg trailer came along, it was like blood in the water with fans of […]
