REACTING to *Meg 2: The Trench* THERE ARE DINOSAURS?!! (First Time Watching) Monster Movies

[@whitenoisereacts]

What is your favorite sea creature?

[@elisabet86]

Orcas

[@TheCenia3003]

My favorite are whales but my favorite creepy looking creatures are goblin sharks.

[@iyqcha1789]

moray eel

[@Lotan_]

Difficult to choose just one, but Livyatan, Kronosaurus and Kaikaifilu are up there. A modern animal would be the Bull Shark.

[@EChacon]

Dolphins and Whales but have a fondness for Sharks.

[@katiecoppes1298]

I think this movie was made to be a Fun movie, not one that’s really in depth or serious, just fun, just pure entertainment, and because they knew that and they leaned into it, it ended up being a movie you could rewatch just because it is fun to watch.

[@Ninja_Tude]

Exactly, it knows its just simple fun and doesn't try too hard so it works 😅😊

[@zybch]

I've never seen such a bad, trash pile of crap in my life. And I loved it lol Its great when movies, even though utterly stupid, are just fun with no preaching or scolding the audience. Makes a nice change.

[@User-kq3od]

I agree both movies are that but this one was just way less satisfying for me, much preferred the first one. But I did love some of the jokes in this one so it works, but I found myself a bit bored at many points. Maybe I just wanted more shark action, I am a simple man.

[@JeffreyLong]

@@User-kq3od I actually like the second one more, but that’s just personal preference. The first though is still really good, and has some of the best creepy unnerving underwater cinematography I think I’ve ever seen.

[@User-kq3od]

@@JeffreyLong Really? Maybe if youre afraid of that. But I dont get that at all from either of these movies, I do enjoy horror movies tho so maybe its just a tolerance thing. Theyre good family friendly summer action flicks, Ik theyre not meant to be taken seriously 😂 Btw for me some of the best underwater horror shots are in these movies, I love when you see how tiny humans are, especially in the deep dark ocean, surrounded by lots of things or some giant thing. 47m Down Aquaman Underwater SCP-3000

The first one was actually fairly good imo, this one was too much. It just kinda sucked imo. I wish movies would choose whether theyre gonna try or not. I love movies like sharknado, velocipastor, zombeavers. But stuff like Meg 2 where they have the production quality and funding to be good but only half try to be good it just feels meh yknow.

This movie very much what it's supposed to be, a turn your brain off and have fun on the ride, nothing more. Sometimes movies are meant to be full on, over the top escapism and this one does it in spades.

[@Alexanderthegreat159]

We honestly need more movies like this. Everything tries to take their story so seriously nowadays rather than just have fun. Like this brings me back to the movies of the '90s the ones you'll always remember. Not the same copy paste intense drama we getting nowadays. This is just something to watch, to enjoy, and to have fun. One of the reasons why I love syfi originals so much and just movies they put on that channel in general.

[@EliteLethal2]

Just a clarification: there weren't sea dinosaurs: mosasaurs, plesiosaurs and others belong to an extinct group called Sauropterygia. Greetings.

[@User-kq3od]

So is that just the scientific name for "Marine Reptiles"? Or is that a specific group within that umbrella?

[@EliteLethal2]

@@User-kq3od Several groups of aquatic reptiles appeared soon after de Permian Extinction and evolved continuously during all Mesozoic. Thus it is quite difficult to make a proper phylogenetic classification (kinship) and there are scientific debates today. Sauropterygia is a huge artificial group that includes families of marine reptiles I mentioned above, but excludes others like ichthyosaurs, thalattosaurs and marine "crocodiles" (that weren't true crocodiles).

[@User-kq3od]

@@EliteLethal2 Interesting. I suppose it is hard to create a true genetic tree with such limited DNA evidence. Thanks for the info tho, always loved learning about prehistoric fauna and genetics was rlly fun in my college biology class few years back. Might look into this more, finding it harder to stay up to date with these things as time goes on although I suppose thats just because the internet becoming widely adopted made it possible for me to hear about all big breakthroughs rather than just what got aired on TV lol, feels like we overhaul half our beliefs about prehistoric life every couple years, exciting stuff.

[@CryosisOfficial]

Those things in the movie are none of those things, though. In the books they were supposed to be Kronosaurs, but these are just completely made up fictional animals.

[@EliteLethal2]

@@CryosisOfficial of course, those creature are all GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms), so they are not truly dinosaurs or another back-to-life extinct reptiles. But my point is, the common people see a pterodactyl, a Dimetrodon or a plesiosaur and think they were flying or marine dinosaurs. By the way, Kronosaurus (contentious genus) was a pliosaur, which belongs to the superorder Sauropterygia.

[@MoeRenai]

Although this movie was fun and threw in a lot of wild scenarios, I miss how the first movie handled its serious emotional moments. While I realize the pressure was on for the characters to keep moving, I wish we could’ve seen more emotional depth around them, especially for MeiYing’s character as a 14 year old who should be dealing with the mixed emotions of getting to see deep beneath the sea like her mother while also witnessing people being eaten and imploding before her eyes. I don’t think she or anyone else has to take a total shift into being completely fragile but seeing more emotional vulnerability would have added a lot; I think there was a way to show the gravity of what was going on and how it’s affecting the characters, while still keeping the nonstop crazy action and not affecting runtime by much. I also wish the villains weren’t as cartoonishly evil. While corporate greed is a believable evil and really common in the monster movie genre, their bland motive just felt uninspiring and forgettable, especially given that the first movie handled its greed-fueled character in a much less stereotypical manner. As it is, while I was still rooting for the characters, seeing so many survive and seem so unaffected by their experience kinda made me enjoy the movie less than the first, since there seemed to be much more genuine heart to the characters in that one. I will also say that I like that DJ had growth between the two films and became an action hero in his own right, as a result of learning from the events of the first movie (events that a lot of the other characters didn’t seem to learn from). I also kind of wish one of the central messages from the first film “it’s about who you *can* save” was more prevalent, though I realize the villains of this one made it not as applicable of a phrase

[@kindracriado5984]

This is like Shark ado but wayyy better. I love that it’s “terrible” and not realistic since it’s so entertaining. DJ killed it 😂

Jason and the all the Sinbad movies absolutely rock. Definitely worth them watching to consider how monster special effects evolved. The medusa gave me nightmares as a kid ;-0

[@travisrygg3317]

That would be great; viewing movies in the history of Special Effects and their influence on well known directors. Though I wonder. . .will they ever watch those movies? I worry that newer generations may not give Harryhausen the recognition he deserves because everyone else are watching Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Jaws, Jurassic Park, The Terminator, Ghostbusters, etc.

[@yzolakitchi]

@@travisrygg3317 Yes, I agree a lot of reactors lean to current releases. I guess there is a juggling act to be done with new releases, contemporary and classics and who their channel's likely audience is. I love their enthusiasm for movies which keeps me watching. I forget sometimes that my 40+ years of viewing means the next gen have a heck of a lot of catching up to do on classics and only so many hrs in a day 😁 I do hope they will try and squeeze a handful of them in at some point.

Absolutely LOVED this film. the main reason I was hyped for them doing a sequel was because i am a huge fan of the books, and Angel is my favorite part of the series so i was SO happy they kept her in the film (i didn't mind that they changed her name to Haiqi). in the book it was alot less ambiguous with her. she had been raised in captivity like here, and she knew jonas. and there were scenes where she very obviously chooses not to kill jonas, and outright saves him in other scenes, like in this film with Jiuming. but i would be fine if it just became a running gag where she DOESN'T kill the main characters, but it looks like she just gets distracted by something else. the rest of the film was a blast, insane action, funny dialogue, self awareness and some really tense moments. I hope they continue with this series.

[@Lotan_]

It's worth noting that The Tyrannosaurus Rex and Megalodon are separated by around 47 million years. These animals never existed at the same time, I know movies like this are supposed to just be dumb fun, but the general lack of detail attention really emphasizes the "dumb" part.

The opening scene for the movie, where the Meg starts eating the T Rex, is a big middle finger to Universal and JURASSIC PARK for making millions of dollars at the box office.

[@JeffreyLong]

It’s actually a scene directly out of the first novel, which came out in the mid 90s

[@RaptorNX01]

not so much a middle finger as a fun jab, but yeah, it ABSOLUTELY was a jab at the Jurassic park series. as said the opening scene here is the opening scene from the first book. and the first book was published in 97, the same year as The Lost World. infact, it came out just one month after the lost world opened in theaters. one of the review tag lines on the inside cover was even "Jurassic Shark". it had other references too. Pippin was a reference to the dog that apparently gets eaten in Jaws, also called pippin. and pippin was actually in the first book, it belonged to Jonas' ex-wife. and ended up in a similar situation.

[@lc8155]

[@thenecrosanct4906]

They're not supposed to be anything. Some sites say they're based on Koreanosaurus (which looks nothing alike), that they're Kronosaurs (which look nothing alike). There's nothing scientific about the Meg movies. There's fictional amphibians, an octopus ridiculously larger than any that ever existed and megalodons which are at least 3 times bigger than the biggest megalodon jaws/teeth ever found. Dinosaurs went extinct at least 40 million years before megalodon existed. Whatever those snappers are based on, only Kronosaurs lived during the late Cretaceous, together with T-Rex, but Kronosaurs are marine reptiles, not amphibians. Nothing in these movies is even remotely accurate and that's not the point of it either. It's just supposed to be brainless, ridiculous fun.

[@User-kq3od]

No. They dont resemble any real life animal, at least not any semi-aquatic nor deep sea ones. Theyre just a science fiction creature made for the movie. And saying something that went extinct before dinosaurs were a thing is related to MODERN DAY humans? Nah, we are more related to Trex or Bananas.

Watched this one in Dolby Cinema at AMC. The opening scene is from the first in the MEG novel series. Would've been cooler to see in the first film. Like the first film, it's another big budget B-movie. But it pulls from one direction to another. It wants to be fun, action packed and suspenseful. But takes a stroll through some serious drama (like it or not). Twists and turns with the human characters and just having to deal with the creatures from the treach The effects are pretty good. Every creature including the Megalodon(s) look formidable. Another smash for Statham ($390 mil worldwide) plus he returns for Expendables 4 in September. MEG 3 is definitely going to happen.

But people do survive quite a pressure though for example 1000ft without any protection suit. But you'll have to spend days(depending on how many seconds you spend down there) decompressing underwater just to get all the nitrogen bubnles formed in body cavities out. Also you'll have to use special nitrox blend (not normal air but more nitrogen & little bit oxygen & helium) or even pure Helium so not to get narc'd or nitrogen narcosis.

it follows the books in that regard tbh. after the first book, Angel (haiqi) was the only meg in the series for awhile. it was either other giant sea creatures, or corrupt humans, with Angel being the Godzilla/Rexy of the series.

[@Rocco1332]

@RaptorNX01 are the books written to be dumb fun like the movies, or are they smarter? I feel like this one was just too crowded (plot wise) too fast for a fun monster movie, perhaps The Meg could have set it up better if they thought they might get a sequel lol.

[@RaptorNX01]

@@Rocco1332 oh, they definitely changed things a bit thinking they weren't getting a sequel (fair considering it took 20 years just to get made). in the book it was revealed fairly early the Meg had been pregnant. she gives birth just before the final confrontation. the very last scene of the book is Mac and the team capturing the baby (angel). but yeah, even the books weren't meant to be taken too seriously. some of the jokes are from the book. like the dog pippin was in the first book and the same thing happens as the first film. even Jonas' name was kind of a joke. in the first book Jonas kills the meg by flying the glider sub into the shark's mouth and down its throat. He climbs out of the sub, and uses the meg tooth he had been carrying thru the whole book (long story), to cut his way thru the fish. then rips out the shark's heart with his bare hands. the series actually get WAY crazier then whats in this movie. although, this film is nothing like the second book, except for the scenes with angel/haiqi. no megs or giant octopus, just a kronosaurus that escapes the trench and goes on a rampage, leaving jonas and angel to take it down. the megs and octo are from later books.

I liked the film. The craziest thing was that a really good friend of mine watched this with me when it came out and realized we saw Meg 1 exactly 5 years prior to the date! We both enjoyed the film. Very popcorn style which is fine. But the first had more emotional depth with the characters and felt more complete compaired with this one. I think if they were able to make the villans more personal with our characters and have a bit more emoitional depth with Jason, his now new kid, and the uncle could have made this movie better than the first. Meg isn't mindblowing but the first felt more solid. Love yalls reaction and was fun to watch Meg 2 again.
