The fact that it already has a cult following makes me want to see it. It looks fun!





"I had enough of these *bleeping* snakes on this *bleeping* plane!" :happytv:
 
DS 16 is going to see it today. I have to get him a ticket so he can get in since it is R rated.
 
Loved it...totally cheesy and a little scary and a little gory!

**GO SEE IT - IT IS WORTH THE $10!!**

No way I fly too much and already have to worry about the terrorists... now I have to worry about snakes too? No thanks.
 

I didn't want to see it b/c I'm scared of snakes but Steve wanted to so I bit the bullet and saw it. And I'm flying on Monday for business. LOL

I hid my eyes under my sweatshirt most of the snakes part. And at one point the goriness got out of hand, but it was entertaining. I recommend it.
 
I keep telling DH we need to go to the local theater (that serves food and cocktails) order a pitcher of margaritas and enjoy- :3dglasses So we may do that!
 
A guy that I work with (mid-30's age) was nice enough to take DS15 last night (I had no desire to see it at all LOL). My co-worker was sure it was going to be terrible but when I picked them up after the movie, they said they both enjoyed it a lot. Now DS can't wait for the DVD to come out!
 
I haven't seen it, but the hype alone caused me to have a dream last night that I'll call "Snakes in a Cabin". A bunch of us were staying in a cabin in the woods until we discovered it was infested with all kinds of snakes hiding everywhere! If the trailers alone caused me to have that dream, I don't think I'll be seeing the movie!
 
I haven't seen it but I do know there is quite a bit of adult language(for those who object, or have concerns about their kids). :) I don't like snakes so I don't think it's for me. :blush:
 
I just want to know what marketing wiz came up with that name?
 
I saw it Friday night and went to the last showing for the night. My buddy who has been listening to me talk about this movie for months, wanted to go and see what all the hype was about.

I like watching the shows on the Discovery and National Geographic channel about snakes, especially the poisonous ones. I'm scared of them like most people are but find them facinating just the same. Its amazing that something so small like a black Mamba or Inland Taipan can be so deadly.

I knew the movie was going to be cheesy and for some that was part of the attraction. Samuel Jackson was in his standard role as the cool tough guy/cop role and didn't disapoint his fans with his famous F-Bomb saying. He's got quite the fan base and I must of heard his famous tag line a dozen times while just waiting in line for the movie.


The movie has it's moments and I found most of it entertaining and parts of it to be just plain silly. There were some cool parts with the snake attacks and some of them were pretty gory of course. The makers of this movie must of been on a mission to have scenes with snakes bitting people in their private parts and the audience in the theater I was in, seemed to love it. I heard a lot of people laughing during the movie and they ate up the gory attacks.

The movie moved along pretty quickly and was a good way to waste a couple of hours. Don't go to this movie expecting a quality production with great acting, but go to it with a sense of humor and you might like it. The tittle of the movie shows the makers of this film don't want you to take it to serious either. I had fun and will probably see it again on cable one day.

I heard a story that Snakes on a Plane was the "working title" and when they were working on the "real name" they were thinking the usual names like "Terror on Flight Such and Such"... Then Samuel L stepped in and told them that if they didn't use Snakes on a Plane, he was outta there!

And really, who wants to line up and go see "Terror on Flight Such and Such" again? The campy title is what attracts attention!
 
Samuel is one of my favorite actors but I think I'll pass on this one.
 
I saw it last night and loooooooved it.

I adore campy horror movies like this one and SOAP didn't disappoint. It was pure entertainment and hello! You gotta love Samuel L. Jackson. He's the man :banana:

I'd recommend this movie to anyone who's looking for a fun time. As long as you aren't expecting anything serious or deep, you'll enjoy it ;)
