"Sharknado" quickly gained attention after SyFy released a ridiculous trailer that made the two-hour event look like a "so bad, it's good" film.
The film generated so much online buzz that even people in Hollywood — from actors to producers and execs — began tweeting about it.
After the ratings come in for "Sharknado," we shouldn't be surprised if we see a storm of similar
Take a look at what Hollywood was saying across the Twitterverse last night:
Somewhere in Hollywood there is a senior executive yelling at a junior executive for not coming up with #Sharknado first.

Modern Family writer and executive producer seemed upset he had to miss out on the fun.
Can't watch #Sharknado because I'm on the set of my new film Tsunamwolf.

The executive producer and writer for the "Late Show with David Letterman" thinks we should dedicate an entire network to the TV movie.
You get the feeling they said this a lot during filming "Eh, we'll fix it later. It'll look fine." #Sharknado

If there isn't a channel showing #Sharknado on a loop until the end of time, we have failed as a society...

Comedian Patton Oswalt had more ideas ready for SyFy.
Just got a call from the 2nd A.D. on the movie I'm filming. Call time canceled tomorrow. ALL movies canceled. It's done. #SharkNado

Dear @SyfyTV: BATTLESHIP made a ton of cash. Why haven't you bought the rights to HUNGRY HUNGRY HIPPOS?

Former "The Walking Dead" executive producer Glen Mazzara already has a name for an impending sequel.
“@Ebradley127: "@brayingdixon: "#SHARKNADO is coming! http://t.co/FRbFHzSYlT” I can only hope the sequel is SQUIDQUAKE.

"Lost" creator Damon Lindelof was most enthused by the TV movie. He offered to write a sequel.
I am going to write the Sharknado sequel and I am going to do it before Shaknado is over.

@DamonLindelof We'll pay you handsomely for that Damon. And by handsomely I mean shockingly little...

The best thing about Sharknado's huge pop culture impact is that Tara Reid gets to look like a fucking genius for doing it.

For those of you already maligning my ending for SHARKNADO 2, you should know 3 things: Henry Winkler. Leather jacket. Water skiis.

I know it's only been 12 hours, but I'm not sure I'll ever be able to talk about anything non-Sharknado-related again.
— Damon Lindelof (@DamonLindelof) July 12, 2013
A lot of people are open to a Lindelof, Oswalt, and Mazzara collaboration.
I would be really happy if @DamonLindelof, @pattonoswalt, and @glenmazzara wrote a sequel to #Sharknado. It would be amazing.
