Yep... for my money it just doesn't get more entertaining that seeing a dude get his cock eaten by a poisonous snake when he unzips to take a piss.

pcbtim, yes pirates is right up there with snakes on a plane (even the name is idiotic) and the rest of the unending talent coming out of hollywood in the last 10 years. I'd much rather see jack sparrow doing porn. does that answer your question |

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not. Because that movie was definitely not that good. I will refer you to Ask a Ninja for my view on the movie.

That was amazing! "They just kept adding plotlines. The last line of the movie, was introducing a new plotline. It's the neverending story...without a luck dragon." Thanks for that, I'll be laughing all night. |

ok. i understand that a little more clearly. but rather than saying "i am a socialist" wouldn't be more accurate to say "i wish i was a socialst." in the same way there's really no such thing as a woman living in a man's body. it's just a man living in a man's body who wishes he was a woman. |

i you wish to post inflammatory comments on the board, such as suggesting that people who like snakes on a plane would be amused by the jingling of car keys (the implication there being that people who like snakes on a plane are stupid,) then i suggest you learn how to cope with responses of a similar nature, without retreating to "i don't want an immature argument." if you can't learn to do that, you should probably not post comments like that. if you didn't want a fight or an immature argument, you shouldn't have started one to begin with. i had my opinion, and i shared it. but, i agree, let's just put this ugly incident behind us.

When you made your initial post you insulted the intelligence of everyone who enjoyed Snakes on a Plane. That someone should do the same to you is fair play. Just because you don't like something, doesn't mean that it is stupid or that people that enjoy it are stupid. |

Because it is easier for them to make this crap. Crappy scripts that come from crappy writers are cheaper. If they can buy low and sell high (#1 movie in America), they will just keep doing it. I'm afraid that this will kill the chances for some decent movies from coming out in the future.
And Dan, Starbucks sucks, I go to Coffee Works. I find it ironic that you accused me of insulting everyone's intelligence, and then you proceeded to insult mine. I apologize that I do not proofread my posts, I will be sure to do so in the future. I never said I was smarter than anyone here, in fact I do not think that I am. I had an opinion, I shared it. If you see this as me judging you or anyone else, I apologize. If you need to hear it, I am willing to concede that you are smarter than me. Plenty of people on this board are. I would just like to participate in these posts without immature arguing.

I'm a socialist forced to work in a capitalist world. One of the reasons why I am forced is not just because of society, but myself. Humans havn't evolved enough to make socialism work. With my greed and still certain primal instincts will never allow me to live in a socialist way. I will never be able to see socialism work in this life, maybe not even in the next life, or the life after that.
I also may never see it work no matter what, if we kill ourselves off, which sadly I could see in this lifetime  . |

I saw it again today! My friend Jenice enjoyed it as much as I had the first time, and we talked about things we liked about it on our drive home. My other friend Crystal would only go so far as to say "I didn't hate it."
So I guess it takes all kinds. (Jenice and I must be more easily amused.) Let me know what you think once you've seen it. :) |

Movies with angry white men killing shit aren't bad either... except for that one with Michael Douglas and the bat. Although I suppose he was just hitting shit, not actually killing it. Maybe that's the difference. |

oh good. someone else who's "too good" and "too smart" for hollywood and movies that aren't foreign/indie. snakes on a plane isn't pretending to be anything it's not. if you go to see it, you know what the fuck's up before get in the theater. or theatre, as you'd probably have it. drop the whole "i'm smarter than people who see movies like this" ego trip. my bet is that there are people on this board that know more about screenplay writing and the critical analysis thereof, and could run circles around you intellectually. in short, quit bitching about how low brow hollywood is. it doesn't make you smarter, and it doesn't make you seem smarter. go back to sitting at starbucks while you read and pretend to understand crime and punishment
oh, and for future reference, if you want to sound smart, make sure your post isn't a linguistic trainwreck. "hollywood only know [sic] what sells. . ." and ". . .there [sic] just going to make more crap. . ." don't really make you out to be a mental giant. |

Yeah, don't expect a movie called "Snakes On A Plane" to be an intellectually stimulating endeavour. It's a good movie because it delivers what it says it's going to deliver: Samuel L. Jackson killing shit, for no real sound, feasible reason.

You can set it up to call someone and tell them to go see the movie. It is Samuel L Jackson that calls them, and they have a few ways you can personalize it. I got one at work telling me to "stop accounting for all that funny money and playing your musical instrument and go see Snakes on a Plane!"
It is really an ingenious marketing ploy, because it had my wife and I sitting around last night saying "Who else can we have it call?" |

I haven't seen SoaP yet, so I'm going to have to give my vote for greatest film to Cars, which I finally saw tonight at the base theater. Pixar has done it again!
One nice thing about Pixar is they continue to entertain even after the story is over. The credits in this one were especially great. If you see it don't even think about leaving the movie theater until the credits are done rolling.
There was also a great scene where the two Italian cars get all dressed up to cheer at a race, and I almost died laughing since they looked just like the Italians we saw here during the month of World Cup games.
And finally, I was impressed by the number of notable people they had play caricatures of themselves. Mario Andretti, Richard Petty and his wife Lynda, Bob Costas, Darrell Waltrip, and Dale Earnhardt Jr. were all in there. (Not that I knew this until I checked out the IMDB entry for the movie, but it's still cool. I'm sure there are other famous names that I just don't know since I'm not a NASCAR fan.) Aside from racing names, they also had Click and Clack from NPR, as well as Jay Leno playing a TV talk show car called "Jay Limo."

How about watching that movie and having real snakes in the theatre? That's what happened yesterday. I don't remember where, but somewhere someone stupidly set two diamond back rattlesnakes loose in the theatre showing SoaP. Funny thought, but in reality someone could have been killed or seriously hurt as they said the snakes bite when startled in the dark. movie theatre...dark....duh...
and thanks but no thanks, not seeing it because I HATE SNAKES!
I just found this on the internet:
Rattlers Freed in 'Snakes' Theater Prank
Reuters
PHOENIX, (Aug. 22) - Life imitating art is all very well. Unless, that is, it's a movie about deadly snakes on the rampage.
Movie chain AMC Entertainment Inc. said pranksters at one of its Phoenix theaters released two live diamondback rattlesnakes during a showing of the film "Snakes on a Plane" last Friday. No one was injured.
AMC spokeswoman Melanie Bell said, "One was found in the parking lot during the show, and the other in the movie theater. They were both removed, and no one was harmed."
The snakes were later released in the desert.
Bell had no further details.
The movie stars Samuel L. Jackson , and spins a yarn about a crate-load of escaped snakes that run amok on an airline flight, attacking passengers and crew.
"There were kids at the show, and it was actually very reckless," Russ Johnson, the president of the Phoenix Herpetological Society told Reuters.
"The snakes' bite carries a powerful venom that could have seriously injured someone," he added.
