Me too. It sounds terrible, but everyone seems to think it's fantastic.

Thats what makes it badass

Just like the Stallone movie Cobra, so bad its good.

Or The Cave or The Cavern, or even Severed:Forest

Snakes On A Plane? WTF?

I don't get it. People I know seem to be talking about this stupid movie as if is the greatest movie ever? Is there something I'm missing? It seems like the most retarded, pointless waste of time in the 21st century. :confused:

So... don't go see it, then.

But there's nothing you can do... not when there's snakes on a plane. ;)

:confused: I'm so damn confused about this movie. :confused:
My take on it is that if it starred anyone but Samuel L. Jackson there wouldn't be nearly this level of hype about the movie. He has established this persona for himself (in movies like "Pulp Fiction") that reminds me of Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry -- kinda crazy, and way over the top, but likeable. If they'd ended up casting some other typical action movie star (e.g. Bruce Willis or Harrison Ford), or an unknown for that matter, it just wouldn't be the same.

If that's true, it'd be possibly the first example of the internet driving movie production. How cool is that? :cool:

I take it you never saw X-Men 3 . . . .

then snakes on a plane is the first example ever of the internet driving movie production in a good way, as opposed to the crap known as X-Men, movies totally ruined the life known as X-Men (as well as Marvel just sucking ass)

It drove it in a good way. That was, by far, the best line in the movie.
 
Does anyone remember the original sketch that started this all up?

It seems to have a life of its own now, but there was a sketch, on the internet - I thought it was a Homestar Runner bit but I can't find anythink like that on the site - which started this whole show.

i.e. Hollywood was making such bad movies anyone could make a blockbuster action movie.... you could just throw, say, snakes... on a plane... and add Sam L Jackson saying "Get these mothe........."

You get the idea.

If anyone remembers where it came from, let me know. I'm dying to see it again.
 
This movie makes me think of the quote from Billy Madison:
Mr. Madison, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Just apply it to this movie and substitute some words around...

[...] Everyone in this theater is now dumber for having watched it. [...]

That's just me.

And anyway, I've seen the [snakes on a plane] skits on Saturday Night Live. That'll save me $10 and a lifetime of therapy.

:(
 
I really think that this movie Won't be a hit. The movie people obviously ran out of ideas for movies. Anybody know who the director is?

especially the sold out 10PM showing last night and many of us wanting to see it a second time, and the 5 minutes of applause after the movie was over.

That is no hit


Damn people do you understand what this movie is about?


Please everyone directors do this stuff for fun.

Everyone wondering why this movie seems so bad should go watch Cobra, it is such a bad stallone movie it is awesome.

I mean comeon in one scene stallone rips the shirt off a guy for smoking.

And it has to deal with an axe gang and it shows a guy with a hammer and not an axe and one guy with only one axe (we figured he was the poor person of the group)

I saw the very first show last night at 10pm. THAT S**T WAS CRAZY! It was everything i expected. Every little piece was just so bad, so amazing. That movie is a life changing event. Everyone was just going nuts in our theater with barrages of "WOO! SAMUEL L JACKSON" 's and bursts of applause at every climaxing scene or funny occurance. I urge you to see this movie ;)

saw it at 10 o'clock tonight. BEST. MOVIE. IN. THE. HISTORY. OF. GOD.
i dont think ive ever been in a movie the audience loved so much :eek:
btw, if you're a guy and ever hope to go to the bathroom again without fear, don't see it.

Ok ok, stop. You guys are getting me over-the-top excited about watching this movie!! :eek:

Apparently not. The entire idea of making a bad cliched movie on purpose is completely over the heads of some people.
 
Phat_Pat said:
just the idea is absolutely ridiculous:rolleyes: :p

and the hype makes me kinda want to see it:eek:

Me too!
I want to see it just because of the hype. Next week I'm going to be in Boston, so hopefully I'll be able to see it then.

It is this time. ;)


Maybe so :)

Just like in highschool, I didn't read all of the instructions before I began. Anyway, they did a similar tongue in cheek movie with Anacondas 2...... and countless numbers of other movies I've removed parts of my own brain in order to forget forever; they didn't do so well.

Don't get me wrong, I love bad movies. Not all, but the ones that are soooo bad they are brilliant. I guess I can give this movie a break and check it out when it's on PPV or something :p.

I still think that Billy Madison quote works though. ;)
 
I want to see this movie, if only to see how it compares to "Orca, the Killer Whale"!
 
this movie is seriously a work of pure genius. freakin' hilarious

i'm seeing it again. period. yes its that bad.

did anyone else's audience cheer and clap when he said the line?:D

haha check this out

apparently according to the critics (and yahoo)SoaP is better than Accepted

neato:p
