Default Snakes On A Plane.

WTF is that all about?


It looks terrible, but it's getting hyped up as the best movie ever... lol

I know, heard radio one say its expected to be the best film of all time. WTF. its appeared from nowhere and doesnt sound THAT good, maybe an hour and half or entertainment but not something worth watching over and over. We all already know the whole plot, just missing the ending.

The main theme of the film is the mansuetude of our ophidian companions, suddenly turning on us, largely due to our hebetude and gormless nature

G4's Attack of the Show has been hyping this for some time. It doesn't look anything too special, but a bit of light relief is always fun. Tempted to double-head SOAP with Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby.

As baggage hold's on Planes are in a seperate compartment from the rest of the Plane, how do they get into the main passenger cell ??? Open up the hatch maybe

A film I think I'll miss.

The studio wanted to change it to something like Flight No. xx

Samuel L Jackson protested, saying that the title was integral to the films pull i.e. it describes a scenario that most people would dread and sums up the simple plot perfectly. I think he's right. You know it's going to be ridiculous, but I'll bet it'll be a right giggle!

Surprised recent events have delayed the release though.

Excellent news
Judging by the tripe they play during the day, by their (backwards) standards, it should be a great film

There's always one Killjoy ......

A bit like my old man who would pipe up when he saw a movie in which they would open the 'seacocks' to deliberately sink the ship. 'Ships don't have bl&&&&ing seacocks ..... &%£$£^&*(*(&^%%%'. He was in the Merchant navy but sometimes shutting up and just going with the flow is more enjoyable for the rest of us ...

Dave

Sounds just like my brother... can't friggin' watch a movie without muttering ceaselessly....."THAT'S not possible, that couldn't happen......."

I NEVER watch movies with him any more .Killjoy.

i heard the review, but take most things said by him as rubbish.
he's into girly love stories and period dramas.
pretty much any movie with a car chase or explosions get's slated by him.
i'll probably buy the dvd, then make up my own mind

so why didn't they call it 5' 8" tall Muslims, with size 16 feet and 52" chests, on a plane then?

Cause the line "I want those *****-****in 5' 8" tall Muslims, with size 16 feet and 52" chests off of my plane" doesn't work very well!

HTH

PS This is a film that is obviously going to be unamiously panned by the critics, but will probably be a good laugh anyway!

Yeah, I agree, but he could have slotted it into his dialogue as an ad-lib, just after he dissed bacon as a food product, & the underlying sexual overtones of a foot massage.

he's a big star, he can lead the director.

They'd have a fucking riot on ScoobyNet then; wouldn't they?
