I wonder if they even were gangsters in the first place, instead of " " "normal Americans" " " trying to defend themselves? I used a triple quote because I can't be sure either way what was Nguyen intentions and I should probably leave it at that. 😏
After years of stockpiling arms, ammo, and food, I'm ready for a zombie apocalypse. Now I'm prepping for a Birdemic. Helpful hint: you can buy coathamgers in bulk online pretty cheap. 👍
Actually, James didn't try to embrace the jokes. James was still trying to make a serious movie. The cast and crew were the ones who made the jokes and references. There's actually a second commentary for the film that's interesting if only to compare with James's and learn what was intentional and what was genuine. For example, that opening sequence of Rod 2.0 walking wasn't a reference to the first movie. It was a Saturday Night Fever reference. Edit: I made this comment before finishing the review and apparently that was a bad call. I should have waited so I could point out that the zombies were added because James saw the Reanimator just like the rain was since that's when he gave James so much shit for trying to be funny and claiming the zombies were there just because they're popular when that's not the case at all.
Yeah if you see some of the BTS footage of Birdemic 2, you can tell just how weird, anal, and douchey Nguyen is. I agree with Smeghead: the fact that Nguyen is in on the joke makes the movie itself so much more cringeworthy, and in reality the guy is so sadly delusional that all the ironic charm is gone. Also I've heard multiple claims made against Nguyen in terms of delaying pay to actors or being weird and creepy with them. Sadly, those claims don't seen super far-fetched. However, let's all thank our lucky stars that Birdemic 3 won't be made.... *knocks on wood*
If you thought the 'Birdemic' movies were bizarre, incompetently made movies, wait until you see the work of Neil Breen (I bet we'll be seeing him show up on CE in the future).
Another reviewer actually provided proof to the claim the cast was intentionally in on the joke. The new guy made an ass ton of references that went over James' head and the crew made sure to fuck up the film too. It's not that James is in on the joke but he was awful to his cast and crew so they took matters into their own hands. I believe the reviewer was Hunter Reviews.
It's pretty much confirmed once you've heard both DVD commentary. One is made by Ngyen, and the other by members of the cast. Ngyen wasn't in on the joke, but the cast and crew was (and Ngyen didn't notice anything). The actor playing Bill even said that he overexaggerated his facial expression just to see if he could get away with it (he did). I don't remember Hunter mentioning this in his review, but Phelous definitely did.
I don't know if James really "embraced" the movie's infamy like you say. I watched an interview/documentary film on RUclips that showed that James was very disappointed that his movies were not as beloved and serious as he initially wanted. He also said that Birdemic 3: Sea Eagle was going to be his last film that he would ever make.
I find Nguyen's supposed disappointment at not being taken seriously very, very hard to believe. Maybe that was true for the first Birdemic, but if you found people laughing at your efforts in B-1, why would you go out of your way to recreate the exact same scenes in Birdemic 2 and then be shocked again by the audience's response? No. I'm afraid James is running a con.
If there's really a Birdemic 3, nobody will go the movie theaters, so it will be absolutely empty. Because what do people already expect from James Nyugyen and his Birdemic series?
So the moral of the Birdemic films is: "Don't pollute, or else poorly rendered birds will attack people... and zombies may or may not show up." And, wrestlers and film? Hmm, my Spidey-sense suggests Suburban Commando, but I might be wrong.
Btw it is confirmed that the actors took the piss while acting for this movie (making lines up or intentionally overacting/ignoring directorial orders) which IMO makes the movie hilarious.
I actually didn’t get through this review the first time (not because of Sean, but the movie itself) so I was caught off guard when I was talking to a friend about Re-Animator and he referenced the zombies in this movie….we then made the joke theory that the source of the re-agent is partially the red rain
wait, 2010?, the first one looks like made in the 80s, like a vhs only release, something red letter media would watch on their wheel of the worst show!
3:37 At least this guy looks slightly more natural when he walks. The dude that plays Rod couldn't even get THAT right in the first movie. I mean, seriously, how the hell can you be such a bad actor that you can't even WALK like a normal person? LOL
Jaws the Revenge is Hot Garbage and the brilliant Michael Caine gives a 100 percent performance Also 1 of the greatest factual errors a Man's shirt utterly dry after getting out of a damn Ocean, and his priceless reaction to the Lameass shark. It's a unforgettable hot garbage movie.
I'm really hoping Rifftrax destroys the sequel. BTW, the budget was 200-300K? Why does IMDb state that it was 20K? How can a sequel be worst, in terms of special effects, than the first yet has a budget twice of its original?.
I think the “so you’re an actress how come I’ve never heard of you” line was in Nguyen’s film Replica... and in that movie she auditioned for his other film Julie & Jack.
Sean, 2001: A Space Odyssey's credits play the Blue Danube and for 3:30 minutes after the words "The End" blink off the screen, the waltz keeps playing to an empty black screen. So does that mean it did the same stupid thing Birdemic II did or this film was being as artsy as Kubrick?
Sting SniperScope Yes John Wick movie series, Baby Driver, The emoji movie, The Hitmans Bodyguard, etc. These are movies that created new characters, and aren't a sequel or prequel.
Jason Case Well I was being semi-sarcastic, since this sequel in question wasn't exactly in high demand nor is it adapting a much-beloved property, though only half the movies you listed are worth seeing. The Emoji Movie, for all intents and purposes, does not exist.
11:53 If you're only going to give a one-word response to "It's nice to meet you," the best and most polite option is not "yes," but rather "likewise."
The funniest part was James, himself, wasn't in on the joke during this movie, but the producer was in on it so the producer and some of the actors were.
Fusilier7 For a unimpressive terrible movie. The Original was a great poorman's The Birds that was 1 of the greatest failures in the History of failure and it was hillarious Birdemic shock and terror was undeniably lightning in a bottle because the sequel is as Sean said a chore to sit through add in the fact that it is a obvious noticiable repeat of the original makes it utterly frustrating, unoriginal, uncreative and not entertaining. dejavu of Escape from LA which is a sequel that repeats so much from the great 1st movie Escape from New York
Ok but I did kinda have a chuckle at the scene of them just standing around a bunch of dead topless actors saying to each other "she's dead" "they're all dead" "she's dead" "dead" "they're dead?" "she's dead"
Ben Kimmel oh thanks. i wonderif other cinematic excrement episodes are available the ones that can't be watched on youtube including snakes on a plane part 2 because of copyrights violation.
I realized I forgot to like your video, which is kinda important since I woke up totally pissed at the world and you made me giggle twice already. Edit: also I want to point out that it's not because Ngyen is in on the joke that he didn't screw up. There's a big difference between being self aware and just... Aware! He's probably just trying to be a good sport and give what the public want, but failing hardcore once again!
I reckon the zombies makes sense tbh. If blood that could magically heal people fell from the sky and resurrected dead birds, why wouldn't it resurrect people too?
Is there really any point? Every other reviewer has already said everything that can be said about those movies. What can he add? A lot of Sean's reviews are movies that haven't been run into the ground.
Hmmm I do see your point, though it would be neat to see which out of all the legendary bad films Sean believes is the worst. Okay if I were going to suggest somewhat different films I'd say Shrek the Third, The Wild and The Half Blood Prince
Well, I live in Texas, and I know nothing about filmmaking, so there's only one thing to do: MANOS II: TORGO'S REVENGE. Pardon, but I have to go create a GoFundMe page.
12:46 So you're trepidatious about this being a faked effort at seeming goofy ... then Whitney's ad-libs & nuanced acting come in to save the day.17:05 Actually, I had heard that kid's line about what happened to his sister was ad-libbed by him on the spot.
Nice review, but I'm surprised that you didn't mentioned the cavemen. They were easily the best part of the movie for the sheer WTF factor (and one of them is even played by Rick).
“Birdemic is the film he made AFTER honing his craft”
I am literally in tears😂😂😂😂😂😂
"it's been awhile since you went down on me"
I did not pick that up and I haven't seen anybody else catch it either! That line is hilarious!
You have to love how Whitney Moore always looks as if she gives not the slightest damn...
"It's been a while since you went down on me"
Woman, we are in public...
Just a gentle reminder that James lives in Hollywood
No wonder his head is up his ass
Oh my god I split my sides laughing when the kid told us about the poisoned fish.
Birdemic 2: The Beakening.
Birdemic 2: Electric Birdaloo.
Birdemic 2: The Second Screech.
Birdemic 2: Revenge of the Shit.
Shouldn't Revenge of the Shit be the title for the 3rd movie?
Assuming there WILL be a third movie lol
TheHeroOfTomorrow True... Although with this kind of budget, I believe it is easy for him to make a lot of crappy sequels.
Birdemic 3: Arizona Drift

"Giant Jumbo Jellyfish."
Say that five times fast.
It sounds like a phrase a doo-wop band from the 50s would use to warm up.
"I live in Hollywood." - James Nguyen
Jack Benner's Movie Reviews Get a grip Sean, I had to read this comment to find out this important piece of information!
Jack Benner's Movie Reviews I want that on a t-shirt
And all this time, I thought he lived in Kyrgyzstan. You learn something new every day.
Is that near Elbonia?
No, it's a country in central Asia. Sorry if you already knew that and were joking.
So "Birdemic 2" is a bad version of "Birdemic" (let that sink in) with zombies.
Zombies…
Oh boy I’m in for a ride ain’t I?
"If you try to fail and you succeed,what did you actually do?"
There's a little grey area there. That's where James operates.
The only black people in the movie are gangsters...
And Damien Carter. You forgot about him.
I wonder if they even were gangsters in the first place, instead of " " "normal Americans" " " trying to defend themselves?
I used a triple quote because I can't be sure either way what was Nguyen intentions and I should probably leave it at that. 😏
His music is so bad it’s criminal.

Guenter Gudermuth SNF, that's what I was thinking
OK but regardless he chose to keep it in the final cut of the film.
If I may quote the Nostalgia Critic.
"Because first movie."
DIRST DOOTHIE!
BFIRST BOOVIE!
If you thought the 'Birdemic' movies were bizarre, incompetently made movies, wait until you see the work of Neil Breen (I bet we'll be seeing him show up on CE in the future).
Get your Tuna and Laptops ready
It’s been 3 years since your comment and Sean has yet to cover any Breen film. 😢
I love Whitney's expression at 21:54, she didn't even try to act concerned.
Also "sick from disease", brought to you by an old running joke.
Let's not stop global warming if it means we get movies like this...
Another reviewer actually provided proof to the claim the cast was intentionally in on the joke. The new guy made an ass ton of references that went over James' head and the crew made sure to fuck up the film too.
It's not that James is in on the joke but he was awful to his cast and crew so they took matters into their own hands. I believe the reviewer was Hunter Reviews.

POLE7645 I'm sure I have the name wrong. I just remember his off the top of my head.
I don't know if James really "embraced" the movie's infamy like you say. I watched an interview/documentary film on RUclips that showed that James was very disappointed that his movies were not as beloved and serious as he initially wanted. He also said that Birdemic 3: Sea Eagle was going to be his last film that he would ever make.
So what about the audio thing? Surely he could have avoided thst.
Thank god!
I find Nguyen's supposed disappointment at not being taken seriously very, very hard to believe. Maybe that was true for the first Birdemic, but if you found people laughing at your efforts in B-1, why would you go out of your way to recreate the exact same scenes in Birdemic 2 and then be shocked again by the audience's response?

If there's really a Birdemic 3, nobody will go the movie theaters, so it will be absolutely empty. Because what do people already expect from James Nyugyen and his Birdemic series?
I cant wait for the Inconvenient Truth sequel
So...does he live in Hollywood?
rye5guy Don’t know, it’s hard to tell
No. He lives in New York.
James “I live in Hollywood” Nguyen
That walking sequence in the beginning reminds me of that dance scene in Spider-man 3 for some reason
EYTPS Don’t worry, the director was going for Saturday night fever
Nah. James thought it was all serious. It was the crew that was in on the joke
I can't believe he skipped over the dance club scene that was one of the best scenes seeing those people dancing badly was funny
18:15 LET THEIR BLOOD RAIN FROM THE SKY!!
There is a petition to get Giant Jumbo Jellyfish his own movie. XD
23:32 The dead lady is clearly breathing.
So the moral of the Birdemic films is: "Don't pollute, or else poorly rendered birds will attack people... and zombies may or may not show up."
And, wrestlers and film? Hmm, my Spidey-sense suggests Suburban Commando, but I might be wrong.
no the moral is "ancient birds hate minorities"
Giant Jumbo Jellyfish. You did it, When. You actually managed to Rememe yourself.
James Nguyen whitewashed himself twice, interesting
And you know why.
@@grapeshot Actually I don't...
@@anikmonette2140 Asians love and worship white people.
@@grapeshot Oh!
That feels weird...
BLOODY POND LIVES We don’t.
10:50 16:22 Those spit takes and your reactions were funny. I was like you.
WHAT?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
When you yelled "where are you going" I lost my shit 😂😂, great review as usual!
Btw it is confirmed that the actors took the piss while acting for this movie (making lines up or intentionally overacting/ignoring directorial orders) which IMO makes the movie hilarious.
I didn't know James lived in Hollywood.
Halloween was made on 300k that was a master piece. This is a golden turd of a movie
I still like Whitney’s sarcastic expressions through the movie.
And now Smeghead’s next review is Birdemic 3: Sea Eagle
I actually didn’t get through this review the first time (not because of Sean, but the movie itself) so I was caught off guard when I was talking to a friend about Re-Animator and he referenced the zombies in this movie….we then made the joke theory that the source of the re-agent is partially the red rain
I saw Giant Jumbo Jellyfish play at Coachella
wait, 2010?, the first one looks like made in the 80s, like a vhs only release, something red letter media would watch on their wheel of the worst show!
wait, wait, wait...does james nguyen live in hollywood?
jac No, I believe he lives in Missouri
No. I think he lives in his mother’s basement.
What's with that casting? The director has some inner turmoil to work out...
3:37 At least this guy looks slightly more natural when he walks. The dude that plays Rod couldn't even get THAT right in the first movie. I mean, seriously, how the hell can you be such a bad actor that you can't even WALK like a normal person?
LOL
Remember, that boom mic is a plug-in hybrid.
The giant jumbo jellyfish chick has giant jumbo jelly tits.
There are are naked boobs, too? This movie is speaking my language!
The blurred faces of the bystanders at 17:27 are great. Don't have to see their expressions to know they are probably very confused.
14:07 O HAI reflected cameraman!
The guns are belt-fed from bottomless belt boxes.
Birdemic 3: Sea Eagle is out!
It's time, Sean.
DAMN!!! I was thinking you were gonna do Jaws 3D/The REVENGE next.
Unholy Periodza I did suggest Jaws the Revenge in a email.
Jaws the Revenge is Hot Garbage and the brilliant Michael Caine gives a 100 percent performance
Also 1 of the greatest factual errors a Man's shirt utterly dry after getting out of a damn Ocean, and his priceless reaction to the Lameass shark.
It's a unforgettable hot garbage movie.
As well as Lance Guest screaming like if he was Snake dying in MGS
or Shinji Ikari screaming in Evangalion.
"The only Black people are Gangsters..."
So he's been watching Neil Breen and Friday the 13th movies?
Looking forward to your eventual review of Birdemic 3. Please review Birdemic 3.
I'm really hoping Rifftrax destroys the sequel.
BTW, the budget was 200-300K? Why does IMDb state that it was 20K?
How can a sequel be worst, in terms of special effects, than the first yet has a budget twice of its original?.
Oh god it happened! Top quality youtube entertainment as always :)
I think the “so you’re an actress how come I’ve never heard of you” line was in Nguyen’s film Replica... and in that movie she auditioned for his other film Julie & Jack.
Sean, 2001: A Space Odyssey's credits play the Blue Danube and for 3:30 minutes after the words "The End" blink off the screen, the waltz keeps playing to an empty black screen. So does that mean it did the same stupid thing Birdemic II did or this film was being as artsy as Kubrick?
I'm thinking the next film would either be Subberbon Commando or Mr. Nanny.
God, they're making sequels to everything these days. Is there no originality left in Hollywood?
Sting SniperScope Yes John Wick movie series, Baby Driver, The emoji movie, The Hitmans Bodyguard, etc.
These are movies that created new characters, and aren't a sequel or prequel.
Jason Case Well I was being semi-sarcastic, since this sequel in question wasn't exactly in high demand nor is it adapting a much-beloved property, though only half the movies you listed are worth seeing. The Emoji Movie, for all intents and purposes, does not exist.
Sting SniperScope Really I'm guessing that is sarcasm because I will be seeing the emoji movie
11:53
If you're only going to give a one-word response to "It's nice to meet you," the best and most polite option is not "yes," but rather "likewise."
Yeah but at least her reactions make up for the weird dialogue that isn’t ad-lib
The birds in Alfred Hitchcock's 1963 film The Birds looked more realistic than the ones in this movie.
That's impressive seeing how they looked terrible in that movie, at least in the flying shots. The crowd scenes looked fine.
glad you;re doing this movie, dude
"in hollywood?"
"yeah in hollywood"
23:20 Did you just forget about Damien Carter!
I wish James Nguyen and Hal Warren could make a movie together, it would be EPIC.
He's dead.
Birdemic3 is happening, already released a teaser trailer
11:47 is that "beer" or brown water? Lmao.
Wow, the Jumbo Giant Jellyfish attacked her with a giant jumbo red Sharpie marker!
Never underestimate the power of the Sharpie.
"Hi, nice to meet you."
"Yes!"
Another hilarious vid. You're great.
The funniest part was James, himself, wasn't in on the joke during this movie, but the producer was in on it so the producer and some of the actors were.
Fun fact: The director lives in Hollywood
Really? I figured he lives in Argentina
Next to Phelous and Lupa's crossover review, this review is pretty funny.
Fusilier7 For a unimpressive terrible movie.
The Original was a great poorman's The Birds that was 1 of the greatest failures in the History of failure and it was hillarious
Birdemic shock and terror was undeniably lightning in a bottle because the sequel is as Sean said a chore to sit through add in the fact that it is a obvious noticiable repeat of the original makes it utterly frustrating, unoriginal, uncreative and not entertaining.
dejavu of Escape from LA which is a sequel that repeats so much from the great 1st movie Escape from New York
The sister being written out like that.... on the plus side they at least had some sort of continuity going on xP
Ok but I did kinda have a chuckle at the scene of them just standing around a bunch of dead topless actors saying to each other "she's dead" "they're all dead" "she's dead" "dead" "they're dead?" "she's dead"
And I could only assume the next film is Never Back Down 3...and yes, that exists.
ASLB247 I'm guessing its 1 with Dwayne Johnson, or maybe No Holds Bar with Zeus and Hulk Hogan.
Jason Case he already did no holds barred. Look on his vimeo. I'm hoping for something with 'The Rock'
Maybe it's gonna be Ready to Rumble.
Ben Kimmel oh thanks.
i wonderif other cinematic excrement episodes are available the ones that can't be watched on youtube including snakes on a plane part 2 because of copyrights violation.
Ben Kimmel What movie would you want with the Rock that likely would be on this series?
If James Nguyen did it, so can I.
Eel-demic; (literal) Shock and Terror
I realized I forgot to like your video, which is kinda important since I woke up totally pissed at the world and you made me giggle twice already.
Edit: also I want to point out that it's not because Ngyen is in on the joke that he didn't screw up. There's a big difference between being self aware and just... Aware! He's probably just trying to be a good sport and give what the public want, but failing hardcore once again!
I don't think I'd need a spit take. I totally believe Rod would be stupid enough to accidentally poison someone with fish.
THAT WAS THE GREATEST WRITING OUT OF A CHARACTER IN HUMAN HISTORY 😂😂😂😂.
I reckon the zombies makes sense tbh.
If blood that could magically heal people fell from the sky and resurrected dead birds, why wouldn't it resurrect people too?
You forgot to mention the cavemen that were also resurrected from the tar pits by the blood rain! How did you miss that?
If I were to suggest two films, I'd love to see you take on The Room and Foodfight XD
Is there really any point? Every other reviewer has already said everything that can be said about those movies. What can he add? A lot of Sean's reviews are movies that haven't been run into the ground.
Hmmm I do see your point, though it would be neat to see which out of all the legendary bad films Sean believes is the worst. Okay if I were going to suggest somewhat different films I'd say Shrek the Third, The Wild and The Half Blood Prince
I highly suggest that you do a review of the movie "Thankskilling". It most definitely deserves your attention...
Omg I’d love to hear his thoughts on that foolishness.
Yes! I was hoping you would make a video review about Birdemic 2!
16:47 Ah! Seans in another camera angle!! Startled me...
Giant... Jumbo... Jellyfish...
the girl shooting her shotgun at 20:57 sure doesn't care that there is a guy running behind her....
My brain hurts now. 😐
Well, I live in Texas, and I know nothing about filmmaking, so there's only one thing to do:
MANOS II: TORGO'S REVENGE.
Pardon, but I have to go create a GoFundMe page.
12:46 So you're trepidatious about this being a faked effort at seeming goofy ... then Whitney's ad-libs & nuanced acting come in to save the day.17:05 Actually, I had heard that kid's line about what happened to his sister was ad-libbed by him on the spot.
Love the references you make from Birdemic 1. Lol
Nice review, but I'm surprised that you didn't mentioned the cavemen. They were easily the best part of the movie for the sheer WTF factor (and one of them is even played by Rick).
The worst the movie, the better your reviews!
The parts with the two Clovis cavepeople in this movie were pointless as well.
Giant jumbo jellyfish jump for juicy justice.
I'm still not sure, does James Nguyen live in Hollywood?
10:50, ONE SPIT-TAKE SCENE!
16:10, TWO SPIT-TAKE SCENES!
AH, HOW DID I NOT FIGURE THIS FILM OUT THE LAST TIME?????
Please do the room as your 100th episode!!
they made a seconded movie....gods help us all
alaster boneman "seconded"
