positive · AI labelView post →I saw the Meg Ryan movie French Kiss in high school which led me to major in French, which allowed me to study abroad in Paris, which gave me the confidence to break up with my abusive high school/college boyfriend, which probably saved my life
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching The Meg w/@mzspress. Great example of a movie that knows what it is and commits to being that. It's a derivative 80s/90s summer blockbuster (Jaws + Jurassic Park) but sincere & with lots of likable characters & some genuinely clever setpieces and sight gags. Love the Meg's 1st appearance.
positive · AI labelView post →What's your favorite corny or cliche movie trope/sub-genre? One that is unapologetically lacking in intellectual depth but you can't get enough of. Mine is Shark v Bikini. I cannot resist a shark movie, though I bailed out of all the Meg sequels. Too dumb even for me
neutral · AI labelView post →last thought of the night: there should be a big movie like The Meg and Meg 2 every single year. I want a gigantic ridiculous film in my favorite category of “Uh Oh That Animal Is Too Big” every single year forever. And Jason Statham has to be there but he can bring new friends every time
positive · AI labelView post →The Jason Statham shark movie The Meg is one of the great films of all time because this image is how the director ended it followed by a Thai version of Toni Basil’s Hey Mickey
positive · AI labelView post →Daddario should be getting all the Meg Foster parts. I think if she wanted to play Erika Kirk in the new Ari Aster movie she’d nail it, just add blonde hair extensions, she already has glacial pale blue eyes that can cut glass when she gets mad
neutral · AI labelView post →I’ve been watching too many serious movies lately, forgetting that it’s summer. Now watching a dumb but fun popcorn film. The Meg (2018).
positive · AI labelView post →When I reviewed the Meg, not only did Indiewire buy tickets for me and 3 friends, but they paid my bar tab because I said I wasn’t gonna see it sober www.indiewire.com/features/gen...
neutral · AI labelView post →We finished watching The Meg last night. It was fine, as expected, a big shark chomping shit & a dude killing it & saving people. I noted that the film had one queer-coded character, a hacker played by the inimitable Ruby Rose. There was no textual evidence; just her haircut & flannel lol

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched The Meg with the wife and kids last night and really it’s the ideal family movie
positive · AI labelView post →[girl named Megan when The Meg first appears on screen in the film The Meg] that’s me i’m The Meg
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching "The Meg," a 2018 film about a prehistoric shark named Meghan.
neutral · AI labelView post →4th day of the inktober, the theme was murky but I used the french translation of the inktober, and the translation is "trouble" I used this as basis and though of "En eaux troubles" the french title of the movie: The Meg
neutral · AI labelView post →Aww it looked fun but it’s hard to commit to spending at least $30 to see a campy movie. I miss the days of MoviePass when I felt no hesitation in going to see Tomb Raider, the Meg, and Pacific Rim 2 in the same week.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Meg movies are genuinely a fun time. I highly recommend them if you don't need anything super serious in your movie experience.
positive · AI labelView post →My superpower has become recognizing when something is filmed in Phuket (Ok the stupid movie I just watched TOLD me it was Phuket BUT I WOULD HAVE KNOWN REGARDLESS, the way I did with the Meg 2)
neutral · AI labelView post →This is the strongest movie in the Meg Ryan cheating on her fiance cinematic universe.
neutral · AI labelView post →Trying to explain to Francis Ford Coppola that someone already called a movie The Meg 2
neutral · AI labelView post →Time for horror movie #2 of the day! The next randomly selected horror movie from my list of unwatched horror movies is... The Meg, 2018

Challia: pardon? Lalah: do you want to watch a movie with us? Challia: Char: Excellent. We Will Now View The Meg 2 (2023)
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm watching The Meg, enjoyed it in theaters, and like I always like a Statham romp but The Meg is a big dumb movie that's unusually good at embracing being big and dumb.
positive · AI labelView post →Trump Elon Regime can seem as big, voracious and vicious as a megalodon. But if you watch the Meg movie you know that attacking the soft underbelly works. Keep protesting the source of Elon's wealth. Reduce his power. Trump won't like him when he's a loser.
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm still pissed that they named that Jason Statham movie The Meg instead of Jurassic Shark
negative · AI labelView post →The Meg is back on HBO and if you havent seen it or The Meg II I recommend it. Its not a great movie, but it is a lot of fun.
positive · AI labelView post →The Meg 2 has some of the most liberal use of green screen of any movie I have ever seen. It's truly unbelievable. I don't even know if Jason Statham is real.
negative · AI labelView post →my dad is watching the Meg, a utopian film about a US/Chinese cooperation in the struggle against climate change and Australians
neutral · AI labelView post →Idk what kind of hold this film has on me, but I’ll always stop channel surfing for Sleepless in Seattle. I think it’s the Meg Ryan of it all. Sprinkle in a bit of a nostalgia factor because my sister and I used to watch it every New Year. The perfect kind of fluff #TCMParty
neutral · AI labelView post →Bonus points if there is a small child to snark with, him and the kid in the first The Meg movie is hilarious. (Same-kid-but-14 in The Meg 2 and the baby in Fast & Furious also good, but not as good.)
positive · AI labelView post →Yes, The Meg is a bad movie, but have you considered the Thai Hey Mickey cover from the soundtrack absolutely fucks
neutral · AI labelView post →The best J-Stat movie is whatever J-Stat movie you’re watching. But also the best J-Stat movie is The Meg. Because it’s about J-Stat grappling with his unacknowledged love for a giant shork. Ask @premeemohamed.com she knows.
neutral · AI labelView post →Every character in The Meg is a complete imbecile. But I am grateful for it because it makes this movie so freaking fun. 🍿🎬🦈
positive · AI labelView post →Watching The Meg again, this time with Emily, my youngest.
neutral · AI labelView post →[girl named Megan when The Meg first appears on screen in the film Meg 2: The Trench] that’s me i’m Meg 2: The Trench
neutral · AI labelView post →Well deserved. It was a great film and it greatly expands on the Kane Pixels lore (which is the superior lore imo - no hate to the MEG/Wiki community I like a lot that comes from there) I left the cinema with so many new questions and answers and can't wait to see what comes next.
neutral · AI labelView post →I just watched the Meg 2: The Trench having never watched the original "The Meg" movie. I can safely say it's one of the stupidest, most over the top and scientifically inaccurate schlockfests I have ever seen. I loved it.
positive · AI labelView post →#NowWatching The Meg (2018)! 🦈💚 #MovieSky #FilmSky #Tubi
neutral · AI labelView post →I love you Jaws and the Meg but Deep Blue Sea but was the best shark movie of all time!!!!
neutral · AI labelView post →you have bewitched me when I saw your compelling performance in the arthouse film The Meg
neutral · AI labelView post →The Meg 2 A movie so dumb that it wants you to believe that all you have to do to survive a depth of 20,000 feet is clear your sinuses.
negative · AI labelView post →The Meg 2 is not a good movie, but Jason Statham does say "See you later, chum" after the bad guy is eaten by a shark, which is excellent.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Meg is a dumb ass movie that I sit and watch every time 😂
positive · AI labelView post →I love this genre (more like *sub* genre, amirite?). I've tracked down a few more, mostly on DVD. But let's be honest, this movie marathon is going to end with The Meg.
neutral · AI labelView post →just remembered the movie The Meg. why do they have to shoot the only known animal in a previously thought extinct species with assault weapons? okay, she's the biggest shark of all time, women can't have hobbies?
negative · AI labelView post →15 movies to get to know me: 1) Terrifier 3 2) Scream 5 3) Beetlejuice Beetlejuice 4) Coraline 5) Sinners 6) Scary Movie 7) Evil Dead Rise 8) Flow 9) Your Monster 10) The Meg 11) Away We Go 12) School Of Rock 13) Instant Family 14) Venom 15) Jaws
neutral · AI labelView post →The Meg was released in the US #onthisday in 2018. Is bigger better or is #JAWS still the greatest shark movie ever?
neutral · AI labelView post →The Meg is a different league. Simultaneously the best movie of all time, and the worst. It’s a head scratcher.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just finished watching The Meg. It was the randomest film I could think to watch on this sleepless night. It was far more entertaining than I thought it would be. I do enjoy Jason Statham.
positive · AI labelView post →The Meg 2 was a good ass movie
positive · AI labelView post →Is this from The Meg...? 🤔😉 (Hated that movie, by the way...)
negative · AI labelView post →So... what's your favorite queer romance or romcom movie? I know we haven't had nearly as much selection as the Meg Ryan genre but we deserve queer joy and since it's homework somehow my brain will let me sit through movies NOW'S MY CHANCE! Give me your faves! :-D <3
neutral · AI labelView post →I have The Meg on as background while I scroll. I actually really love this movie. Even though every shark movie lies about sharks, I enjoy the genre lol
positive · AI labelView post →Watching The Meg 2 with the kids and it’s everything you expect and nothing more from an action movie. I appreciate a movie that knows itself.
neutral · AI labelView post →THE MEG 2: DA TRENCH is the dumbest fucking movie Ive seen in a long time. FIVE STARS.

positive · AI labelView post →Anyway, The Meg is on & I fancy a bit of the Statham this evening. Ridiculous film but I love it!
positive · AI labelView post →I'm watching the Meg 2 while doodling a creature for Metapha and this movie is delightfully stupid and entertaining xD
positive · AI labelView post →What's a "dunb" movie you will stan to the ends of time? I don’t care what anyone says, The Meg was an absolute blast.
