I'm a firm supporter of SoaP, but I'm going to have to agree. Too many threads - this is getting ridiculous.

friend's review that mirrors sentiments:

I went and saw the 10:00 showing of Snakes on a Plane. I had been anticipating this movie ever since I read the first story on it on the net back in February. I even bought the poster since it was so badass. Really, I didn?t expect it to live up to they hype at all. I was expecting some funny moments, but for the most part for it to be a terrible terrible film.

I may have been right, but my experience last night was awesome. This is one hell of a fun movie. There are a few things that you should know about this movie though before you venture off to go see it. You should not go see this movie if any of the following apply:

- You don?t know why the movie is called ?Snakes on a Plane?
- You don?t appreciate his royal badass, Sam Jackson
- You plan to see this by yourself on a Tuesday matinee with a 20% full theater
- You can only be entertained by films of quality that have a chance at an Oscar nomination
- You don?t know the one line in the movie to look forward to

Those are just a few things that if apply to you, I?d recommend not going to see this movie. Since within our group the majority of which were looking forward to an entertainingly bad movie AND everyone else at the theater was completely into the back-story and aura surrounding the release of this movie the environment at the theater was twice as good as any other movie that I?ve seen. If there hadn?t had been the constant chants, cheers, gasps, hisses and applause from the rest of the audience, the experience would not have been nearly as enjoyable. I think seeing Snakes on the opening night had more of an impact on the level of enjoyment I felt than say seeing a new Star Wars or Harry Potter movie would.

You have to know what to expect going in. This movie is TRYING to be that late night B level Sci-Fi, campy movie. It does a lot of things that in any other movie would get eye rolls but for Snakes, becomes an intentional laugh out loud funny moment. It succeeds in being a really really bad enjoyable movie without being too stupid. I didn?t pay $7.50 expecting to see a bunch of special effects, action sequences or a cinematic masterpieces. I wanted to get some pure entertainment and that?s what Snakes on a Plane delivered. This movie pulled off all the hype and was much better than I could have expected.

Sure. People are stupid. It's really as simple as that.

Motion to ban anyone that admits to watching this moronic movie.

Let me recycle my posts, as I can't be bothered to waste time:

---

It's a dumb title and a dumb movie. There will be action, nudity, comedy, and Sam Jackson kicking ass and screaming "MutherFvcker!" a lot. There will be cheesy moments, special effects, women in the audience cringing, men cheering, and a *lot* of laughter among groups of friends, and between them. People will have fun and be entertained.

I fail to see how this could be any simpler.

---

See, this is exactly the type of scenario this film was designed for: Theatre + beer + friends = FUN.


I feel bad for all the stuck-up losers who feel they are "too good" to go see this movie.
* points and :laugh: *

werd, saw the midnight showing this mornin'

the crowd was hilarious, even before the showing after people started coming in, people screamed "Snakes on a Plane!" every time someone new walked in

everyone was screaming and cheering at the deaths and the lines, when sam jackson made his appearance, when we saw the 1st plane, etc... i wish i could watch more movies with a bunch of idiots like these!

i <3 samuel jackson!
