Great Movie Gadgets Part 3: Raging Sharks

You know what else I love about movies? A good gadget or prop. There's just something about taking a lot of nothing and turning it into something more. I love it. And it's fun to try to figure them out.

Ok, fair enough, it's not a 'gadget', it's just a piece of paper. It is this piece of paper, however, that serves as a linchpin to the 'plot' of Raging Sharks. This innocent looking sheet of paper is the report that shows the contents of a sharks stomach, allowing the discovery of a space chemical capable of cold fusion...or something.

This VERY...report...hey...wait a minute...what's that?

That can't really be...


A report in HTML?


GOOGLE??? Hey! Wait a minute! This isn't a report! This is a printout of some Google page source! You just did a printout of a search for great white sharks and hydocarbons and printed it out! All right, Raging Sharks, I'll let you slide this time, but next time, I better not see thes kind of shenanigans from you!

This is yet another post for the HEY, INTERNET, STOP BEING SUCH CYNICAL EFFING DOUCHEBAGS BLOG-A-THON!

Yeah, that's right, 2 posts, feel the love.
