neutral · AI labelView post →A live-action film of ‘The Magic School Bus’ officially in the works at Legendary Entertainment. Rob Letterman (‘Shark Tale’, ‘Detective Pikachu’) is set to direct and write for the film with Elizabeth Banks starring as Ms. Frizzle.

Joining us is Scott’s former colleague on SHARK TALE, writer/director Rob Letterman! Available exclusively at @cbbworld.bsky.social!
neutral · AI labelView post →So my dad and I are rewatching Shark Tale for the first time in years. I remembered this movie was bad, but nah, that was too nice. This movie's garbage. XD
negative · AI labelView post →I love when a filmmaker is like "We shot this scene in 4:3 to recreate the feel of classic movies", because it means that if I ever shoot a movie I can film it entirely in 3:2 at 240x160p to recreate the wonderful feeling of watching Shrek and Shark Tale 2-in-1 Game Boy Advance Video.

neutral · AI labelView post →"Shark Tale is such an atrocious movie and I don't understand why people like it. With that said, I love this movie."
neutral · AI labelView post →Try to find a Scorsese movie that isn't about white men being spiritually broken. I think that's even the theme of A Shark Tale, somehow, and he's just cameoing in that one and it's about fish.
neutral · AI labelView post →there was a time when every animated film would have multiple licensed video games. like, Shark Tale would have a game on PC, PS2 and GBA, and they'd all be different.
neutral · AI labelView post →Terraria nerd answer: basically a hammer decent enough and so easily obtainable that you'll use it until Hardmode Joke answer: Dwayne Johnsons's fursona if he was in the classic animated film Shark Tale, starring Will Smith
neutral · AI labelView post →When you've became famous for Mostly Doing TF for Furry art be like: Oh and the audio came from Dreamworks' film "Shark Tale". It's a guilty pleasure film >:D. go watch it for the memes
positive · AI labelView post →If we are to assume that Shark Tale is meant to be a gay allegory (which it 100% is) then Oscar absolutely calls him an omega slur in this scene within the context of the movie right
neutral · AI labelView post →Age yourself with a movie you saw in theaters No joke, Shark Tale was my first theatrical movie. My aunt took me to watch it for my 5th birthday lol
neutral · AI labelView post →This is why Shark Tale will forever be a goated Animated movie one of the best ever to be created 🙌🏾
positive · AI labelView post →Coming later this week: a podcast special with director Vicky Jenson. Her first film, Shrek, wins her an Oscar She has a huge hit with Shark Tale She makes an underperforming film, Post Grad She gets sent to director jail (serving double time for having the temerity to be female). Lands Friday.

neutral · AI labelView post →After seeing the cocomelon movie trailer, I suddenly feel like watching Megamind Vs. The Doom Syndicate. Hell, I’ll even take Shark Tale to go with it.
neutral · AI labelView post →Pretty wild that Shark Tale is probably the best film on this list.
positive · AI labelView post →Shark Tale is one of DreamWorks' worst films and coming on the tails of Shrek 2 this aquatic fever-dream had the fish guts to be an Oscar-nominated film alongside Shrek 2 and The Incredibles.
negative · AI labelView post →How To Train Your Dragon. I dismissed initially because the marketing made it look like a lame LOL kids movie. Basically, another Shrek or Shark Tale. But not only I heard that was so not the case and seeing it myself, holy shit the marketing did a dishonor on that movie.
negative · AI labelView post →If you've felt like your "kid-friendly movie about an animal mafia" shelf looked a little sparse with just Shark Tale up there, you are in for a TREAT. Here's the teaser for Pixar's GATTO! reactormag.com/gatto-teaser...
neutral · AI labelView post →Halfway through Swapped Spoilers: Not only is this already not a body swap movie as advertised, but they don’t even stay “swapped” for the duration of the movie. Right now they’re both fucking ugly ass Shark Tale fish
neutral · AI labelView post →There's a type of joke where Alvin from And The Chipmunks will randomly do the entire "you talkin' to me" bit from Taxi Driver and people will go "oh that joke's for the parents" even though it's not a joke and not funny, and Shark Tale is like if they decided to make that the whole movie
neutral · AI labelView post →7. Shark Tale is such a terrible movie, but I have way too much fun quoting and poking fun at it to act like I have any negative feelings towards it whatsoever.
neutral · AI labelView post →Horror movie sets being cursed is boring and expected, let me know about the dark curse following the cast of Shark Tale.
neutral · AI labelView post →Notable work for the guy who invented Ice Age: Ice Age, Shark Tale, and The Tuxedo. The Tuxedo is often called "the most forgettable Jackie Chan movie ever made."
neutral · AI labelView post →husband got tricked at the library movie section like a dad in a 2004 blockbuster picking up Shark Tale instead of Finding Nemo
neutral · AI labelView post →Many have awaited for my turn to review this movie. Everybody had their shot slamming this movie, but now it's time that I get to slay the Shark Slayer. Now on Patreon, come be the first to take a look at my latest review of the infamous DreamWorks movie, Shark Tale.
neutral · AI labelView post →Exactly. Look, Dreamworks has a lot of good, even great movies. But they also made Shark Tale, and the Boss Baby, and Shrek the Third, and they got a Cocomelon movie coming soon. Bottom line, doing console wars with animation studios are stupid. They can have their ups and their downs
neutral · AI labelView post →I just finished watching the very first film released by DreamWorks Animation for the first time in seven years. While I did enjoy this movie in the past, unlike Shark Tale (the last DreamWorks movie I watched), I think I like it even more now that I'm grown.
positive · AI labelView post →Not only is Shark Tale a mafia movie but it's also a period piece. Unbelievable
neutral · AI labelView post →Time for a movie! Tonight's first randomly selected movie is... Shark Tale, 2004
neutral · AI labelView post →Aw man I told you! I'm doin it! X, circle, X X, double left square, right trigger down, square, square. Oh double square! Respect! Respect! Ernie and Bernie from Shark Tale. Made with #HeroForge Figured I might as well make the best characters from that movie. Hope you all like it!
neutral · AI labelView post →Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate is the worst DreamWorks film I've ever seen. Its so bad from the animation to the voice acting to the script that it makes Boss Baby and Shark Tale look like true Oscar winners. While the first Megamind wasn't perfect it was way smarter than this attempt at a sequel
negative · AI labelView post →Shark Tale Review | DreamWorks’ Fishy Nightmare
neutral · AI labelView post →Junior Cans is watching Shark Tale (the 2004 Dreamworks fish movie) and this is one of the worst things I've ever seen.
negative · AI labelView post →We got a headache from watching Bogonia so we immediately alleviated it by watching the best mob film- Shark Tale
positive · AI labelView post →I grew up with the Advance SP! I played a lot of Sonic and Zelda, and had some of those movie cartridges of SpongeBob and Shark Tale too! 😌
neutral · AI labelView post →With Shrek now on Disney+ for some reason we are now one step closer to achieving the ultimate crossover: A world based on the 2003 classic movie Shark Tale in Kingdom Hearts 4.
neutral · AI labelView post →No one can convince me that Shark Tale is a “bad movie”
positive · AI labelView post →Its pretty easy to be seen and praised as the masterful studio when your competition are visually unpleasant and/or tonally weird films like Shrek, Antz, Bee Movie, Chicken Little, Shark Tale or Hoodwinked
neutral · AI labelView post →Saying that Shark Tale is a bad movie is antiblack btw
positive · AI labelView post →Scorsese: Marvel movies are sort of like theme parks filmbrotwt: HA! SEE! DADDY SAID MARVEL SUCKS HE AGREES WITH MEEEEEEEEEEEE Scorsese: Takes a role in the Mandalorian & Grogu Star Wars movie filmbrotwt: ... Scorsese: I was a pufferfish in Shark Tale once
neutral · AI labelView post →Someone out there upon watching a Robert De Niro movie has to have heard his voice and gone "holy shit its the shark dad from Shark Tale"
neutral · AI labelView post →Fun fact: I almost saw Alien Vs. Predator in the cinema as a child, my dad took me to see Shark Tale and they accidentally put AVP on, we got free tickets to see another film whenever we wanted to because of the mix up.
neutral · AI labelView post →I kid you not, the only film I have seen him in is Shark Tale so it has to be that by default
neutral · AI labelView post →Decided to recreate @schaffrillas.bsky.social 's meme of Shark Tale using a 4:3 DVD Rip of the movie I have because I'm bored.
neutral · AI labelView post →Randomly thinking about how in my video on the Shark Tale licensed game, I said the movie was the most infamous DreamWorks film and arguably the worst thing they ever made. This was back in 2021, so it was about 3 years before Megamind vs. The Doom Syndicate made that statement age poorly. XD
negative · AI labelView post →Ah yes, Shark Tale Rick Yale Cott, peak film
positive · AI labelView post →@animat505.bsky.social Animation fact! Elemental is now the sixth film to be nominated for the Best Animated Feature Oscar without being nominated for either of the Best Feature Annies; after Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, Treasure Planet, Shark Tale, Ferdinand and Over the Moon.
neutral · AI labelView post →The next time a film buff talks to you about Martin Scorsese, just reply with "Oh yeah, the guy from Shark Tale! Loved that guy"
neutral · AI labelView post →I used to get mad to the point of tears when I was 8 bc I was so confused as to why the movie Shark Tale was made underwater
neutral · AI labelView post →Shark Tale is such a vibe! Always loved this movie as a kid 🐠🔥
positive · AI labelView post →Yeah, I do like the first CWACOM, (I agree with him on the second one though), and Monsters vs Aliens which he also considered a bad 2009 animated film is honestly a guilty pleasure like Shark Tale.
neutral · AI labelView post →And also Shark Tale, Bee Movie, Home, The Boss Baby film, Shrek the Third and Spirit Untamed. This may be a new low for DreamWorks but they've already had lows in the past. Not to mention I feel like they're going to follow up the Cocomelon movie with a better film afterwards.
neutral · AI labelView post →An example I have with a bad movie with a decent production would be Shark Tale. Despite the movie being laughably bad, at least the production wasn’t troubled
negative · AI labelView post →
