whoever makes Sharknado and its Syfy kin clearly have no intention of making a legitimate film, so they are dull to me beyond the title. the staged Youtube video is a good example, would you be more amused by someone accidentally setting themselves on fire for real, or if you knew in advance that it was all planned out for viral purposes?
