My commentary is below the fold.
- Starting "Roboshark" on Netflix. - August 14 at 6:51pm
- Alien device landing at sea near a fleet. - August 14 at 6:52pm
- And a great white shark swallowed it, becoming Roboshark. - August 14 at 6:52pm
- Looks like it's about to sink a submarine. - August 14 at 6:53pm
- By grabbing the propeller? - August 14 at 6:53pm
- Flickering? Did grabbing the prop hurt it? - August 14 at 6:54pm
- Teeth modified to grind through hulls... - August 14 at 6:55pm
- One sub down. - August 14 at 6:55pm
- So I guess the aliens have a particular interest in the oceans? Aquatic aliens, maybe? - August 14 at 6:56pm
- The military brass don't seem very surprised by this development. - August 14 at 6:57pm
- I guess this rather domestic fellow must be the hero. - August 14 at 6:57pm
- So the great confrontation will take place in the waters near Seattle. - August 14 at 6:59pm
- The "hero" is married, and she's a reporter, so the lead couple is established. - August 14 at 7:00pm
- They also have a daughter who is cell-phone obsessed. - August 14 at 7:00pm
- And the reporter team has spotted a military base being set up. (The other two guys in the van are obviously expendable. - August 14 at 7:01pm
- And the shark is in the bay... and apparently in the city water system, having broken through a large pipe. - August 14 at 7:02pm
- They're going to investigate the military base, which appears to be set up in the middle of a park. - August 14 at 7:03pm
- And they just broke the fourth wall a bit, making meta-jokes about shark movies. - August 14 at 7:06pm · Edited
- So the hero works at the waterworks? - August 14 at 7:05pm
- Apparently there was a report of a shark attacking a plane before the events of the movie, and part of that plane was just seen in the park. - August 14 at 7:11pm
- And the shark just destroyed a "Starbucks". - August 14 at 7:11pm
- And the navy just grabbed the reporter (presumably because she's a witness). - August 14 at 7:12pm
- I think the guy who got eaten managed to upload video before he died. - August 14 at 7:12pm
- And for "drama" purposes, she got replaced by another reporter once the story got interesting. - August 14 at 7:13pm
- Authorities are claiming it was a gas explosion. - August 14 at 7:14pm
- Our reporter is "Trish", who was apparently the weather girl and is trying to get into real journalism. - August 14 at 7:15pm
- And her husband is Rick. - August 14 at 7:17pm · Edited
- Eric is tracking the water system breaks, and has predicted where the shark will strike next. Trish is on her way there. - August 14 at 7:16pm
- Guy at the sewage treatment plant is ignoring Rick's warning. - August 14 at 7:17pm
- This looks more like a brewery than a sewage treatment plant. - August 14 at 7:18pm
- Ewww... blast of sewage to the face. - August 14 at 7:19pm
- And the stupid guy is eaten. - August 14 at 7:19pm
- Oooh, she just received the go-pro video from the first victim. - August 14 at 7:21pm
- Dramatic slow motion entrance of the Navy brass. - August 14 at 7:24pm
- Daughter caught up with Trish. - August 14 at 7:25pm
- Daughter is using Twitter to locate the next attack. - August 14 at 7:26pm
- Shark attack in a mall. - August 14 at 7:26pm
- Military squad on the scene, Trish close behind. - August 14 at 7:28pm
- Apparently it can swim through solid materials pretty effectively. - August 14 at 7:28pm
- It can also slither across floors a bit. - August 14 at 7:30pm
- TV station is annoying, so the roboshark footage is going on YouTube. - August 14 at 7:37pm
- It appears to have gone viral. - August 14 at 7:38pm
- NEVER READ THE COMMENTS! - August 14 at 7:39pm
- Daughter's name is Melody, for future reference. - August 14 at 7:40pm
- The admiral is a dick, of course. - August 14 at 7:42pm
- Sounds like the admiral just got an order he didn't like. - August 14 at 7:44pm
- And now we have Men in Black arriving on the scene. - August 14 at 7:45pm
- Who's the guy in the sweater? - August 14 at 7:45pm
- They're implying that it's Bill Gates. - August 14 at 7:45pm
- Bill is apparently going to communicate with it "Close Encounters" style, subdue it, and reverse engineer the alien technology. - August 14 at 7:47pm · Edited
- Its new location is "THX-1138". Geek references. - August 14 at 7:48pm
- Bill is flying a drone out to try to make contact. - August 14 at 7:48pm
- It will be funny if the admiral has the right idea. - August 14 at 7:50pm
- The shark certainly is interested in the drone. - August 14 at 7:51pm
- And it has locked in on Bill's transmitter. - August 14 at 7:52pm
- Drone destroyed, followed by Bill. - August 14 at 7:53pm
- Shark is now heading toward a school. Admiral is going to take it out. Can't evacuate the students, because that might warn the target. - August 14 at 7:55pm
- Apparently there's a swim meet at the school, too. Melody is warning everyone via tweet. - August 14 at 7:56pm
- One adult will be eaten instead of any high school swimmers. - August 14 at 7:59pm
- Roboshark just started following Melody on Twitter. - August 14 at 7:59pm
- She IM'd it to "please stop hurting us", and it broke off the attack. - August 14 at 8:00pm
- And now it's trying to communicate musically. - August 14 at 8:00pm
- Apparently it's not that hostile. - August 14 at 8:00pm
- Why isn't this pool draining? There's a huge hole in the bottom. - August 14 at 8:01pm
- And the navy just pissed it off again. - August 14 at 8:01pm
- It's down, but is it out? - August 14 at 8:01pm
- Damn that guy is a dick. - August 14 at 8:02pm
- Well, they've put men into the pool to confirm the kill. - August 14 at 8:02pm
- "Roboshark phone home." Someone loves their pop-culture references. - August 14 at 8:04pm
- The navy should be getting a big surprise. - August 14 at 8:05pm
- Oops. Roboshark has miniguns! - August 14 at 8:06pm
- It appears to need to get to the Space Needle to make contact. - August 14 at 8:07pm
- For a "non-hostile" alien, it sure ate a lot of people when it arrived. - August 14 at 8:08pm
- Rick should really text instead of talking. - August 14 at 8:09pm
- Navy goon just destroyed his phone. - August 14 at 8:09pm
- That is a ridiculously large helicopter cabin. - August 14 at 8:10pm
- And what is it with the admiral and energy drinks. - August 14 at 8:10pm
- Admiral is apparently prepared to use a tactical nuke. - August 14 at 8:11pm
- Looks like the admiral is going to lead from the front. - August 14 at 8:12pm
- Well, all the players are at the Space Needle, and Trish's reports are being live-streamed. - August 14 at 8:12pm
- It's trying to transmit, but the navy is trying to jam it. - August 14 at 8:15pm
- I think it just beat the jamming. - August 14 at 8:16pm
- Not wanting to be shown killing a girl on social media, the admiral sent some people to grab Melody and Trish. - August 14 at 8:17pm
- Shark has gone back to "friendly" mode. - August 14 at 8:17pm
- Apparently it's some kind of probe? - August 14 at 8:17pm
- Navy team arrives. Hostile again. - August 14 at 8:18pm
- Well, it just took an RPG, but that didn't stop it. - August 14 at 8:19pm
- Four navy guys eaten. - August 14 at 8:19pm
- Here comes an air strike. - August 14 at 8:20pm
- AC-130. Did it get it, or did the shark just retreat underground? - August 14 at 8:20pm
- At least the admiral is smart enough to want to confirm the kill. - August 14 at 8:21pm
- Surely this rival reporter is going to be eaten... - August 14 at 8:21pm
- Shark just launched itself and took out the AC-130. - August 14 at 8:22pm
- Shark is looking pretty hurt, though. - August 14 at 8:22pm
- And the AC-130 crashed into the Space Needle. - August 14 at 8:22pm
- Gotta be about time for the alien mothership to arrive. - August 14 at 8:22pm
- The admiral is apparently directing in a missile strike. - August 14 at 8:23pm
- Ah. The missile hits the Space Needle to drop the top onto the shark. - August 14 at 8:25pm
- Which will get the annoying reporter. - August 14 at 8:25pm
- That seems to have reduced the shark to fragments. - August 14 at 8:26pm
- Mildly ominous ending. - August 14 at 8:27pm
