Speaking of deathbed gratitude, Bad CGI Sharks turns six today! I’m definitely the MaJaMa member who continually tries to remind the group what this actually means, often to the level of genuine annoyance. But while I can admit I can be overbearing with the self-love, it sometimes strikes me that not even I fully realize what this movie existing means to the goals I’ve had in this life. Again, with deathbed knowledge, it’s just simply vulgar to think I haven’t gotten everything I begged for. Families have told me they watch this movie together. I think that’s one of the main things that floors me. To my brain, that’s the ‘holding the child whose face resembles yours’ moment.
When you’re younger, anything can seem possible. I haven’t lost my idealism, but it’s been tempered a bit. It’s entirely possible MaJaMa may never pull together another movie. Things aren’t certain in these dreamer pursuits. But then it strikes me that sentiment could easily be ‘Will we ever make A movie?’ I am now intertwined with Matteo and Matthew for the rest of eternity in a movie that showcases our exact style of irrepressibly goofy humor. The release of The Naked Gun reboot this weekend brought a celebration of that type of comedy returning. I just smiled to myself knowing that we did our own smal part to make the world a little more silly a few years back.
This entire experience has been a blessing I may never be able to take in. But like recognizing what Mom and Dad mean, I really do try. To any fan out there, thanks for doing the heavy lifting in checking boxes off on my dreamer checklist. You sure know to make a lazy famecancer patient smile. There may be something cool and special in the works for any Bad CGI Sharks fans! 😏
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything! 6 years of poorly rendered aquatic creatures! 🥳🦈🎂
