Show Notes
This week on Classic Movies Live!, our hosts discuss the biggest shark in cinema!
The Meg series of films stars Jason Statham as Jonas Taylor, a marine biologist/diver/eco-terrorist who repeatedly encounters Megalodons, a species of prehistoric giant shark. Based on a series of novels by Steve Alten, there's certainly more to it than that, but you really can't go wrong with "Statham vs. Shark"!
Also in this episode, our hosts give their thoughts on the state of Statham's other big franchise: The Fast and the Furious!
Spoilers in this episode for The Meg, Meg 2: The Trench, and Fast X.
