The NOTscars

The Oscar award ceremony is tonight and it was suggested that I watch the ceremony to review it.  That's probably not going to happen.  Instead, let's look back on some of the highlights of the movies we have reviewed so far.

Nominated for Best of the Worst Digital Threat
The sharks in Malibu Shark Attack
The shark from Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus
Piranha from Mega Piranha

And the winner is, ... The shark from Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus
This was a tough category.  Each of these digital villains has their attributes.  The piranha double in size every ten minutes and are able to take out Naval vessels.  The Malibu sharks are these prehistoric sharks, brought back from the dead due to a tsunami and their swim skills are probably what doomed them in the first place.  But the Mega Shark chomped the Golden Gate Bridge.  That was enough to take the award.

Nominated for Stiffest Lead or Supporting Actor
Hero in Mega Piranha
Elderly Doctor in Dinoshark

And the winner is, ... the hero in Mega Piranha.  If you could remove the acting from this guy, a carpenter could use it as a straight edge to build some cabinets.  Most of his dialog was angry stares.

Nominated for Time Filler Portion of the Movie
Camouflage make-up montage in Skeleton Man
Pheromone creation scene in Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus

And the winner is, ... pheromone creation scene in Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus.  It was close, but the scientists attempting to create the lure for the two creatures was a thing of beauty.  Pouring different colored water into beakers edged out a group of people putting smudges on their faces.

Sorry, that is all the time we have for this year's NOTscars post.  Tune in again for another exciting edition of The NOTscars!
