Episode 73: Piranha 3D (2010)

Well look who came crawling back... John returns for swimming with Porn Stars, Body shots, unfortunate yachting accidents and John's Quiz Piranh-Ya or Piranh-Na!

Piranha 3D is a 2010 American 3D horror comedy film that serves as a loose remake of the comedy horror film Piranha (1978) and an entry in the Piranha film series. During spring break on Lake Victoria, a popular waterside resort, an underground tremor releases hundreds of prehistoric, carnivorous piranhas into the lake. Local cop Julie Forester (Elisabeth Shue) must join forces with a band of unlikely strangers—though they are badly outnumbered—to destroy the ravenous creatures before everyone becomes fish food.

Directed by Alexandre Aja, the film stars Elisabeth Shue, Adam Scott, Jerry O'Connell, Ving Rhames, Jessica Szohr, Steven R. McQueen, Christopher Lloyd and Richard Dreyfuss. A sequel, Piranha 3DD, was released in 2012.

Piranha 3D received generally positive reviews, with film critics praising it as a fun and entertaining B-movie.

The beads were glass and you're supposed to give out beats to people who exhibited the traits. The color of the beads represent it. Green, gold, purple, they all mean something. They started chucking them at Mardi Graarre in the states one thousand eight hundred, probably because they were drunk and or high, and probably though thought there were snakes trying to kill them. Then somehow the women lifting their shirts became a thing, probably in the s of s, because free love and all that Shit.
