James Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 [font=arial]I saw this yesterday. It was a good laugh, mostly because of its overall terribleness; poor acting, ridiculous story...you name it, Snakes on a Plane had it. lol I only have one question about this movie. Snakes hybernate when it gets cold - why didn't they simply turn the A/C up so high that the snakes either stopped moving or slowed down? I would have thought that'd be an obvious solution and I'm kinda surprised nobody in the film thought of it. As far as whether it was actually worth seeing...well, as I said, it's funny because of how obviously bad it is. But I doubt I'd want to watch it again.[/font] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd be nothing more than slightly chilled jump ropes, which doesn't make for a very entertaining movie if you ask me. ~_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celestialcharm Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 [COLOR=DarkOrchid][FONT=Book Antiqua][QUOTE=Lunox][color=dimgray] I've wanted to see this movie so badly ever since there was a small blurb about it in Entertainment Weekly at the beginning of this year. Then it got rated R and I was pretty disappointed. >_> I'm hoping that we'll just be able to pass. We're [i]almost[/i] seventeen. P: [/color][/QUOTE] Heh, it was 14A in Canada. The movie theaters I go to usually don't even check my age, and I look like I'm 12. [QUOTE=Papa Smurf] Two, [spoiler]The two brothers needed to die horrible deaths. I was waiting for it the entire movie. Their survival was depressing.[/spoiler] [/QUOTE] I think they[spoiler] lived because their dad was in the army.[/spoiler] Maybe it was a subliminal message? [QUOTE=Papa Smurf] Three, [spoiler]the baby lives?![/spoiler] [/QUOTE] I guess [spoiler]the baby had to live because it was either it or the old woman. I guess being young won. ;) [/spoiler] [QUOTE=James][font=arial] I only have one question about this movie.

[/font][/QUOTE] Hmm, I don't think it could have even worked because these are super snakes on a plane. ;) Anywas, I saw this movie a few weeks ago, and I thought it was jokes. I kept laughing at everything that I wasn't supossed to laugh at. Like the [spoiler]brother's death.[/spoiler] But, if they would have snuck snakes on a plane, [spoiler]couldn't that dude who told the mafia guy that they were on a different plane shoot the witness?[/spoiler] Meh, but then there wouldn't be a movie. I guess they just really wanted to use the idea of snakes on a plane. And it was nice not seeing[spoiler] any black people die for once. I thought at least one would die.[/spoiler][/FONT][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Smurf Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 [quote name='celestialcharm]I think they[spoiler] lived because their dad was in the army.[/spoiler'] Maybe it was a subliminal message?[/quote] I attribute it more to the filmmakers not being as mean as they needed to be. Cute kids+horror movie+venomous snakes=death, dagnabbit. [quote]I guess [spoiler]the baby had to live because it was either it or the old woman. I guess being young won. ;) [/spoiler][/quote] Only the good die young, which doesn't say much for either the old woman or the baby. Either way, the baby sucks because it failed my thirst for death. I wanted to see a baby+boa constrictor a la [spoiler]what happened to Mary Kate or the British prick[/spoiler]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been awesome alright. It sucks that in SoaP and other flicks of it's genre, they seem to be scared of having the babies and children get eaten. Even one of those tykes meeting a slithery end would have made me jump right out of my seat. Never would have seen it coming. Never. My favourite death in this movie is a toss-up between [spoiler]Mary Kate or the British prick.[/spoiler] I had to have a good chuckle at both. [spoiler] Mary Kate was exceptionally hillarious, because I seemed to be the only one enjoying it. Everyone else in the cinema was wincing and turning their heads, they missed some good CGI! The dog just pissed me off anyway. All it's barking was driving me batty. The final yelp was rather satiusfying.[/spoiler] But the [spoiler] British dude easily rivals Mary Kate in awesomeness. Because I deal with pricks like that all the time in my line of work. Those grumpy types who will get in a bunch because you can't deliver the world on a silver platter. Arrogant, prickish types make for some awesome snake fodder. :smirk:[/spoiler] I totally enjoyed that flick, and I must see it again when the DVD comes out. I'm too much of a pauper to go see it twice at a cinema. :p[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
