It looked funny six months ago before everyone in the frickin' country loved it. I'm still gonna see it, but I'm not excited and peeing my pants liks some people are.

I'm sure that this was a serious film at one point and then they saw the reaction and started this tongue-in-cheeky promotion. I even heard they went back and reshot stuff after the reaction.

Meh . . . looks pretty lame imo.

I don't think I'll be seeing this. It just doesn't interest me the slightest bit.

I don't know, the teaser trailer actually caught me off guard which is hard to do.

but the latest trailer looks like any other lame 'action-packed' sam jackson movie. I won't be seeing it unless the internet buzz is that it actually delivers the goods. which i kind of doubt it will

I don't get this...is it a serious movie or a comedy?

I don't knoew, Marcus. I think it was serious but they're "re-worked" it

Did anyone actually go see it? It didn't really do very good. All the sites are saying it was #1, but it really was #2. They're trying to make it look good by adding in Thursday night screenings money.

Quote:

Starring Samuel L. Jackson and a bunch of killer reptiles, Snakes averaged just $4,290 at 3,555 locations. That wasn't anywhere near the top average among the Top 10 films, which belonged to Fox Searchlight burgeoning summer dark horse hit Little Miss Sunshine. The road-trip comedy about a wacky family averaged $8,213 per 691 screens, in its fourth week of slowly expanded release. All told, Little Miss Sunshine moved up from 12th to seventh place, earning $5.6 million to bring its current gross to $12.7 million.

Obviously, this is a movie that's more fun to talk about then to actually see.

You know, for a while I thought this was a political movie

. "Snakes on a Plane"? How can that NOT be a metaphor?

I might see this. I'd rather not though.

The first time I ever heard about this movie, my cousin Amanda had its theatrical trailer on her myspace profile. I literally left her a comment saying, "...is that a real movie...? or a joke?"

when she said it was a real movie, my response was: "...that's unfortunate..."

looks lame to me, but if someone sees it and can honestly tell me otherwise, I'd be willing to give it a go.

i saw this movie last week and it was sooo cool ! me and my friend went with an open mind , well i did she thought it would be sooo bad that it might be good ( if ya get what i mean) i thought the trailer looked pretty cool and was really impressed by the movie. its not everyone cup of tea but i really enjoyed it. theres the action and then some comedy and then the scary stuff with ya know GIANT SNAKES ! i think its a good film and the title might have put people off abit. dont judge a movie by the title

How can you not see this movie?? It's already a cult classic and it's only been out a few weeks! I've seen it, plus I went to the soundtrack release party (where 6 bands from the soundtrack played) which was AMAZING. Not to mention my newest video is Snakes on an Island.

I recommend this movie to everyone because it is the new Rocky Horror Picture Show.

well you see the thing about this movie is..its got so much hipe from the Internet, (because of the titel), samuel jackson said he wouldnt do the movie without the title being "snakes on a plane" it was origanaly going to be "pacifc flight... something" but becasue of the title there has been so much making fun of it on the internet...thats why its so sucseesfull
