What did you learn from not Birdemic?

I learned Birdemic was more inept, and therefore more enjoyable than this riffwise. And Day of the Animals was better than this and also more enjoyable riffwise.

I learned people can't defend themselves from pigeons. Who knew?

I learned where Snowpiercer got the train idea from. And I didn't like it much better than this.

I learned train engineers look and dress like Castro and carry hand grenades. Again, who knew?

I learned the Amazon Prime version had numerous scenes in a different order from this. The hang gliding scene is in the middle not the start. It opens with the pigeon shoot. Luigi and Peach get killed before the beach scene. etc etc.

I learned our female lead bared all in the amazon version. And Mike's Atkin's tub comment was not really much worse than the cut comment Atkin's made to his dick about not getting any.

I learned the movie just ends. Actually the whole thing comes out of nowhere, heads nowhere, and ends with nothing.

I learned ah!! My eyes! Birds pecking at my eyes.

Loaning someone the jack out of your car is a bad idea even if they don't intend to keep it.

For a movie monster that can legitimately strike anywhere and anytime, and from behind, birds tend to suck at utilizing the element of surprise.

"From what I've seen of these birds, they might just be waiting for the right moment."  LOL no, they weren't.

Speaking of the birds not attacking people while they're right in the open . . . you're not safe in any building or car, but under a pier, exposed on the sides?  Really?

Movies like this make me appreciate movies like Pitch Black where the concept is executed well (even if parts of it might not hold up on closer examination).
