Re: Snakes on a Plane
I can't believe this movie would be any good at all. I've seen a lot of previews over the past 10 days, and to be honest, it looks utterly moronic in both premise and execution. I don't have any desire to see it whatsoever, based solely upon previews.

I would have to say that you have totally and utterly missed the point of the previews and why people would go and see this movie: because it is trying to be moronic and satirizing in certain ways.
Myself, I want to go see this movie, just to see Samuel L. Jackson's performance.

Re: Snakes on a Plane
IF you come up with a funny design for a t-shirt or mug or something for Snakes on a Plane.. CafePress made a deal so that its users can use the name of the film in designs and advertising. There is a ton of designs showing up already as they all try to outdo each other (and grab some bucks while its hot)

No, the point was not missed. Movies such as these I usually find to suceed more at being moronic than satirizing, and the form of moronism they choose isn't the kind I find interesting/amusing/whatever. Just not my kind of movie.

Re: Snakes on a Plane
The name just yells CHEAP MOVIE to me. I would have changed the name to something more B'ish than cheapish.
Snake Air
Air Snakes
Passinger Venom
Venom Air
Air Plane Python
I recall when I was a kid seeing a documentary where a documentary taker was captured by a python, on film, and was slowly squeezed to death and consumed, on film. The sounds he made as he was slowly being killed have stayed with me to this day. The look of absolute terror on his faces could not be fogotten by even most calus of us.
While I doubt I will go see this movie, I might rent it some day.

Re: Snakes on a Plane
Army of Darkness is adult entertainment. Trapped in time. Surrounded by evil. Low on gas. Good use of the word satire.
Date Movie borders the territory between hilarious and just stupid.
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! is, in my opinion, just over the border. Bunch of kids having a fun time with a movie studio. Better than most home/vacation movies tho.
Snakes on a plane? Somewhere between 'just gave up entirely' and 'f*ck you'.

Re: Snakes on a Plane
Army of Darkness, now there was another good movie.
"Good, Bad, I'm the guy with the gun."
