    It’s only a matter of time some low-effort studio makes this into a monster-of-the-week horror movie for the Syfy network.

    I’m looking at you The Asylum, who made that horrible movie Atlantic Rim. I’ll never get that 85 minutes of my life back again.

    Honestly this is cute as hell. I get that its dangerous for the sailors but we don’t want them “taking matters into their own hands” as it suggest in the article.

    I vote we send them some decoy ships with super strong Rudrers and see how long til they get bored of it.

      The article says they are playing and not acting out of aggression. I don’t think Orcas are hunted much anymore, at least just not in large numbers, and the boats being targeted are small fishing vessels not whaling boats.
