Little known fact - the first Birdemic was supposed to be set in Australia, but when the entire first cast was poisoned/eaten/dragged off by dingos/crocodiles/seagulls, James Nguyen gathered up a second cast and shot it in California. R.I.P. First Birdemic Cast.

I'd never heard of this film, so I googled it. People have described it as "the worst film of all time", so I'm off to watch it. Thank you so much for letting me know of its existence.

Unfortunately Birdemic 2 is intentionally bad to play on the "success" of the first so it is nowhere near as good.

The newspaper from where I went to school was notorious for some off the wall titles Republicans still beating dead hourse of Obamacare Smoke on the water and fire in the sky Yes, they dedicated an area to the rising sun and fog over the water. Have to love small town newspapers.

I just got a chance to see Birdemic, and I was not disappointed !

  If you have somehow not watched Birdemic in 2015, please do so. I know this has nothing to do with weird news headlines, but it's important.

Oh you need the context. The newsrooms have decided to go on with computer controlled cameras. What could possibly go wrong? There were similar issues in Australia a few years ago when the ABC decided to cut costs and use a system called Ignite. Basically it gives five people's jobs to one, making for almost no way to speedily correct any errors as it's garbage in / garbage out and unless your news segments go exactly to script else you have to have a very deft hand to recover. One major issue was with name supers (the titles of who's talking) coming up. The system didn't respond well to having timed cues, so if something broke then everything would slide out of place. Or it would suffer from human error with names being put in the wrong order into the system. Before this you would have a dedicated role for cuing vision, sound, operating cameras and fading in and out of supers. But still some great bloopers come up.

It really needs to be noted that the best part of this bit of the movie is that, if you watch this gif for 2 minutes, you've watched the whole scene. That's all that happens; they just stand completely still and swat at birds that are also completely still. e: sorry for the derail.

The thing you need to know if you still haven't watched Birdemic and only know it from screenshots and gifs is that the visuals are probably the least ridiculous part of the movie. The writing and sound production far eclipse it. There is a scene where the characters are talking about how they might be the last people left alive, and the dialogue is completely drowned out by the busy highway they're shooting next to.
