I am surprised that someone like SLJ decided he would put his name to a crap film such as this one after doing some pretty amazing movies in the past!

Well it's meant to be fun/silly trash, so i figure it's ok.

also: millions of geeks will go and see it, just because it'll be shit

Jackson signed on to the movie only because it's named Snakes on a Plane, and threatened to quit when they tried to change the name.

If you cannot see the humor of this movie, I pity you.

Who said anything about it not being funny, love? The word I used was 'crap'. Amusing does not make the film good.

I shake my head and give a wry smile whenever I hear people mention this film. Initially I thought the internet buzz about this film was "ironic" - ie it got mentioned all the time just because it was going to be so obviously shit. Then I heard that people were seriously going to see it!

I think lots of people have lost their objectivity. It's like with Davis Hasslehoff - he isn't fucking cool goddammit! What starts off as "ironic" soon has people blindly following it.

SOAP (or SOAMFP) will be shit. It really is that simple.

It WILL be shit.
But it has ascended into internet geekdom.
And nothing, but nothing can stop that.

Yes, it's American Ironic.

I'm sure it will be a fun movie, in the same way that Deep Rising (my favourite fun movie) is.

"The girl from Ipenema"

At first I lol'd at Snakes on a Plane, what with Jackson only doing it because of the stupid name. I knew it'd be bad but I thought it'd be so bad it's funny. It's getting far too much attention and hype from teh interwebs though. I won't go to see it, but I might download it just for a laugh.

I don't care, I will go and see it because it look hilarious

Much like Deep Blue Sea, my favourite 'crap' film, also starring SLJ

the best crap film EVER

is The Silent horse. It really is special, and only £5 on a double film feature dvd from co-op. I really recommend it
