Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
im not. it looks pretty stupid to me.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I've already got tickets! :snake::rockon:
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
We will eventually see it.I might get thrown out though:P ,.Just going by the preveiws i will more then likely crack up;) .
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I may watch it someday if it's on while I am flipping through channels; that's about it. Then again, I just watched a movie in which Paris Hilton gets impaled through the head (House of Wax) so you know, my cinematic tastes are nothing to copy :)

Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I'll wait for it to come out on dvd.

Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Won't waste my time!!! Just another thing to make non-snake people think they are all venomous and dangerous. :fishslap:
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I'm going Sat. I know it will be stupid but, I can't resist!

A guy gets a pretty wicked bite in one scene, I hear
... from a spider ball python. Not a normal or even a pastel. A spider!!
I don't really know how bad of an impact this will have on people, either. I'm pretty sure everyone seeing it will realize the movie is totally unrealistic in that the rest of the movie outside of the snakes is still ridiculous. If it was some serious global terror flick I wouln't be so cool with it, but this movie is unbridled silliness for the most part.
So far the worst Snakes on a Plane has caused is this:
"Yeah, I have a pet snake, he's a ball python blah blah blah"
"Oh! Has it been..... ON A PLAAAAANE?!?!?!?!"
"Yes, actually. It has." All the time!
I'm going to it tonight with a bunch of people, I've been really excited for it for awhile. It's supposed to be stupid - that's the best part :D
I also like rocky horror picture show though, and I have a ton of friends who hate that too.

Mousch, I've always loved ya, but even more, now! Are you also a fan of Dead Alive? MST3K?
Here's a pic of me and my husband at a live RHPS. I've passed on the love to my daughter, and am looking for a live show to take her to as well!

I still haven't watched any MST3K but I am being reminded at every turn. Soon enough I will get there, never heard of Dead Alive though.
Anyone looking for more scaaarrrryyyy snake movies should see Boa vs Python, arguably the worst film ever created. a 30 ft boa! a 30 ft python! THEY BREED WITH EACH OTHER!
My first viewing of RHPS was a rite of passage too :P

Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Oh, I should have said...I'm the one in the front, the girl with the V on her forhead is a good friend of ours, haha.
I have two words for Dead Alive.....zombie whoopie!

Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I get a lot of cracks about this movie, so I'll go see it just to fight back! haha

Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
RHPS was campy weird, but NOPE. Won't waste my hard earned dollahs....esp at $7.50 a pop. Nope, nope, nope. :no:

That's what this will be too :D Only one more hour! I'm so excited!
Your movie tickets are cheap :( I'm going to the cheapest theatre in town with new releases, and it's 9 bucks!

I can beat that (cheap) try $5.75 for shows between 4 and 6 pm. That's where I'll be tomorrow! I'm dragging my sister to it. LOL Funny story about the trailer though (preview on TV) My 2 year old niece saw the ad for Snakes on a Plane, and she yelled out "There's Pepino" (that's my corn's name) Very cute. Give her 14 years or so, I'm sure she'll be on the forums by then. Wait till she sees my BP (I get him Monday)
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I'll watch it when it comes on T.V.

Ahh cmon you know this could happen:P

Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
......it will be on TV in 6 months anyway....just like other Sam Jackson flicks....remember Deep Blue Sea?.... garbage...another man killing shark movie...This movie will be the same....just instead of sharks it is snakes and instead of a naval research facility it is a plane....these writers need a good :groinkick ....noone ever makes intellectual movies anymore...
...and how many times do I have to see my two of my favorite animals getting crapped on....snakes and sharks ...it is neverending :(
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Your theater is how much? Damn I have to pay $12.50 to get in at my locals. The cheapest is like $11.00 if I drive thirty minutes. I agree with the bunch of you above I am NOT spending money I worked for on this BS.
All morning on the radio they were ranting and raving about Snakes on a Plane, ooh aah, they even had a contest on how long the radio DJ could keep a live snake in his underwear! That is where I got :irkd: , LEAVE the snakes out of this!
I am going to write them hate mail tomorrow morning. They had a local pet shop bring several non-venomous snakes into the studio and everyone was screaming and hollering. The bet was how long he could keep them in there without freaking out. The prize: Unlimited amount of tickets to the movie.
I love this negative publicity for our beloved snakey friends. Man I am P-O at them. They are normally a better station to listen to. Grrrrr.

Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Ok, this was the funniest movie I've seen in ages. Those of you refusing to see it are just denying yourselves a funny movie.
And YES, it has tons of instant cult quotes.
Everyone in the theater was just rolling, it was so great.
Can't wait to get the dvd!
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I am probably going today with my mom. We have 2 free tickets!

It's my JOB to handle LIFE AND DEATH situations on a DAILY BASIS!
I've been so pumped with all of the online hype over this movie, I was there with a bunch of online friends avd it seemed like everyone else was there with theirs too. There was also a group of people sponsored by New Line Cinemas and they threw rubber snakes! We traded them like baseball cards :P
Anytime thre was a hilarious snake death, we'd wave our snakes in the air. Our arms got pretty tired!
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Haha, mousch, sounds like you had as good a time as I did!
Everyone was pumped, right?
We didn't get rubber snakes <although plenty of people brought their own!>, but we got handed little pamphlets of the "Safety Instructions". I got quite a few, wonder what they'd Ebay for, lol.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
yeah its stupid but its just pure entertainment and thats all that matters to me....and btw...deep blue sea is a great movie!!! :banana:
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I saw it this morning! I laughed my ass off!
Snakes on crack. Great.
HAHAHHAAAAHAH!
Samuel L. Jackson is such a badass.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
This might sound ironic but Samuel Jackson took some pic's with a big albino burm and a big Colombian boa. Both were around his neck I saw these pic's in daytona one of the breeder's had them on display. I didn't get a chance to ask him if Sam was a fellow snake owner but it was cool. Ohhh yeah the movie will be a rental for me , it's not a movie theatre flic for me.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
No, Sam doesn't own snakes. This is his first time working with them, too. That's one of the resons he did Snakes on a Plane.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
The movie itself looks funny and corny but I plan on seeing it. I hate it already just for the fact that My husband's grandma saw it and now she is like your snake is going to kill your child. There is salamanila (sp?) everywhere, that is why she is sick all the time (which btw she is not). She even said that now a 14ft bp ate a full grown man (haha) and that "its alot stronger than you think". I'm pretty sure that Yoshi is thinking about choking me to death everytime I hold him....yeah I am sure. She thinks this all because of THIS movie. Oh and because of everything she has read online. I could understand her concern if I had a full grown burm or a rattlesnake with the baby but I have BP and I see no danger, expecially when the baby doesn't have any contact with them.
sorry for the off topic rant.....
But yeah the movie looks funny but alot off people are going to be warded off snakes and thats sad.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
I think I'll watch it in a few years when it is on TV. Other than that the previews look horrible
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
i think if i watch it at all it will be in a few years on tnt or something, LOL. even then i probably wont watch the whole thing. ill probably get bored 10 minutes into it like i did with the anaconda movies.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Not gonna pay 7$ to see a movie that will not only piss me off, but also make me leave 10 minutes into it

Definately a movie to watch while doing Housework.....not worth sitting down and paying 7-9 bucks per ticket.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Watched it today - it was terrible... so terrible that it was actually pretty funny. Everything about this moveis is so idiotic that it really shouldn't cause snakes too much bad press. If someone is really foolish enough for their opinion of snakes to be dictated by a movie like this then I'm not really sure that I care what their opinion is.
For those of you who have seen the movie: I thought one of the funniest lines was when someone questions Eddie Kim's (the villain) plan to fill the plane with poisonous snakes and he replies "don't you think I've exhausted all other options?".
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
the only reason i would see it in a theatre would be to shout stuff at the screen and get everybody all mad. LOL!!! :rofl:

I agree. Although I have a friend who went to see it and he said it was absolutely hysterical, and wasn't supposed to be. He said he laughed himself silly. He asked me if I was sure it was supposed to be a horror/thriller. He couldn't believe it.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Um, it IS supposed to be hilarious. Some people -get- cheesy, and some people don't! haha

actuall that columbian boa was for sale at that breeders booth. hes not a snake owner but he somehow has good connetions with that breeder. as for the movie, i may see it just looks to stupid to pass up :)

Cheers!!! lol
(I havn't seen the movie yet), but we do have a section of DVD's I call "cult worthy" Pulp Fiction, Lost Boys, The Howling,etc....
Back on topic.... Did anyone read the interview in Reptile mag.?? They pushed the fact that they knew they were doing subs. on certin snakes,etc... and asked that the hobbiest out there not get turned off, or scream, "hey that's a corn snake"...& so on. Isn't the plot that they get somekind of hormone enhanced anger thing!?!?!?
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Yeah. they had 'female pharamones' as the trigger. LOL, apparently burms get the hots for female rattlesnakes.

Wow, I think your grandma totally missed the point. I don't see this happening ith a lot of people unless they go into the movie wanting to come out thinking badly of snakes. And mr~python - you can yell at the screen all you want because so does everyone else! Part of the point of the movie is that everyone should by now know that none of the snakes in the movie are actually like that. There was a lot of hooting and cheering when corn snakes were killing people, it's a hoot.
I liked seeing the African Rock Python though. He was very pretty :D
I did a little tally in my head and tried to identify all the snake species I could - there's even a Boelen's Python!

LOL have you tried pointing our ACCURATE websites for her? No matter what I say everyone in my family is automatically an expert on snakes and I am kinda losing my ability to laugh at "Well, what if it gets bigger than you expect" or "What if its not a ball".
Like i wouldnt notice if my cute little crowley just up and turned into a retic. They don't get 14 feet over night.
Its amusing.
I did too! I was shouting and laughing the whole time - i loved the bathroom scenes in the movie! hollywood gold.

At first I thought the same thing as you....and thought that Hollywood was being prejuicide against reptiles....I still think that you'd never see "Ravenous canines on a plane"...snakes/reptiles are surely easy targets as mentioned previously
Then I thought maybe I'm being too serious...the movie isnt a documentary--its a grade B Horror flick....people who take this movie serious are likely already fairly scared of snakes.....so they just have a serious case of confirmation basis.
Alternatively, they might leave in a world of dreams.....after all there are people that believe that great movies like Star Wars are real. There are also people who think L. Ron Hubbard novels are real.

The ultimate result of this movie for the hobby is probably unkown....it could have no lasting effect or an overall positive or negative effect....who knows? There are certainly some negative things like this that will result form this movie.
But there could also be some positive things.....
For the people who are not terrified and just ignorant about snakes....the movie could serve as a springboard for education. Who knows if we'd have Shark week on the Discovery channel without "Jaws"? Maybe they'll put an educational feature on the DVD?
It not exactly a comparable stituation since no one keeps great whites in their house....plus Jaws is probably a better movie than this one :sunny:
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
OK.... Just got home from the movie! LMAO! It was SSSOOO bad in SSSOOO many good ways! We busted out over and over.... and I'm with you, instant "catch" phrases! My personal fav. was, "TIME IS TISSUE"!!! HAHAHA! love it.
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Haha, Laooda, I had totally forgotten about that line. I wish someone would hurry up and come up with a large list of movie quotes for it. My favorite, other than the obvious, was "this plane is going down like a Thai ******".
hehe
-
Re: Who's going to see Snakes On A Plane?
Just another excuse for people to talk about "the dangers of snakes" when they don't really know anything. I'll probably see it though.
