Ten M*therf*cking D*llars?!? Whammy.
As anticipated, Snakes on a Plane was painfully bad.
Surprisingly, it was not as hilarious or relentless as I expected. It dragged in several places and not a single character was cool enough or developed enough to care about. Even with abysmally low expectations, I excpeted more than this. A talented editor could have turned that script into something truly hysterical. But they didn't. They never did. So everyone was laughing at the badness. I suspect though, that this film will make a stupid amount of money.
I guessed wrong, on who would actually have to land the plane. Plus they groomed this one character to come back and be bad later, and then did nothing with it. And the "villian" was really hysterical, as was the scene that introduced him. In some ways, this movie represents all that is wrong with modern cinema; so in some ways it's bad that I gave them $9.50. But I laughed harder than I have all week. So that's cool.
Despite the title, there were very few actual Snakes on the M*therf*cking Plane. Though there were lots of CGI pictures of snakes.
And the song at the end? LO f*cking L.
Of course, I had a swell time with those crazy kids I like,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
uterdic and smarbaby. It was a good crowd with plenty of obnoxious kids yelling at the screen, cheering at the foolishness, and laughing in all the right places. Preview night is always a fun night to see a movie, even if the movie in question totally M*therf*cking Sucks.
That said, I've been forced to add a few things to the "On Notice" Board.
Did anybody see who else got cut tonight from Who Wants to be a Superhero?
I only saw Creature get cut, and then we had to leave to get good seats for SoaP.

I saw it at Borders tonight and was giving it some serious thought, but stalled when it came to purchasing it.

Maybe you'll want to pick it up used?

Was it gory?
They both say it was but they both usually aren't into these type of movies...they both loved this though...I'm hoping this is gory as Hell.

But I'd guess Squirrels on a Ferry or maybe Komodo Dragons on a Bus. And some guy who's really good at DRIVER or GTA (but has never actually driven a car) will have to drive it--probably H.

I had an awesome time seeing the movie, and laughed my ass off. I'm sure you'll laugh too. It's a horrible movie, but it's mostly pretty fun.

I was expecting the most ridiculous film ever, and instead it was a bit better than garden variety foolishness IMHO. Of course, my own experience with snakes is quite different than yours. I've kept pet snakes and worked briefly as a reptile wrangler. I've been bitten by a yellow anaconda numerous times--and sadly, I didn't end up with any cool scars. ;-[

Hey, thanks! I think I'll just hit the lie-berry up for this one. Save $15 or so!

I can't quite tell if it's trying to parody action movies or not.
I'll be glad to hear your thoughts.

Whoa...I like the idea of Ving Rhames as Rhodes. It promises a marked contrast to his character in DotD '04.
But Steve Miner?!?
Okay, I only remember him from Friday the 13th pt 2.
So I guess I'll try to keep an open mind.

Thanks. I had no idea that this existed, which is probably why I suck at self promotion. ;-]
