First review. This will be the sleeper hit of the summer more than likely. And yes, the villain is named Mr. Kim. Actor by the name of Byron Lawson. Check IMDB.

"I've had it with these motha fuckin' snakes"

That, combined with the memes all over the internet about it, is reason enough to see it.

When I saw the commercial on TV, I honestly thought it was a parody. My whole family broke out in laughter.

I'm asking the cute girl that works at the bubble tea shop if she wants to go see it with me on the 18th. The outcome, of course, will either make or break our future.

You're a braver man than I. For some reason I can't bring myself to ask workers or attendants out, especially if I frequent that area. Mostly because it would be loltastic having to see them again ad infinitum.

However, the best of success to you in your endeavour.

Pimping tip #465 - When going to view this movie, do not spout off any double entendres such as, "Wanna go back to my house and watch Trouser Snakes on a Plane?"

Use of the aforementioned link when asking will score points for you.

One more day, then it's time to get these muthafuckin' snakes off this muthafuckin' plane. This thing has become almost like a Star Wars phenomenon. Not quite, but close.

They should call it "Sheep in the Theater". Because that's what most movie goers are - mindless idiots who are sheep-like followers of the latest movie hype.

There's no need for you to shovel pseudointellectual poop all over the board, but have it your way.

I myself have never been afraid of snakes. There's this particular serpent that annoys the hell out of me, though.

I swear, it's not a Trouser Snake joke. Honest.

I just watch that movie and I can say that I wasted my money. O well, at least, an asian guy actually survive throughout the whole movie.

You didn't dig this? Man, it was a fuckin' GAS! This was almost better mindless entertainment than Pirates — better because it wasn't too damn long and it did exactly what it was supposed to do, nothing more!

I was a little bit ho-hum in the beginning, as it was being standard fare in generating some sort of plot...and even when the snakes appeared, there wasn't any surprise there, so I was like, okay, let's see where it goes...then shit just got more and more malicious and then I was like, THAT'S the stuff! The concept might've been stupid but the execution was entertaining and a thousand times better than what I expected.

We need more well-made, charmingly stupid R-rated dark humor movies like this, I sez. The flipside of this movie's possible success is that the eventual cookie-cutter copycat joints will come out and make things REALLY stupid all over again!

Okay, the movie was kinda funny and Samuel L. Jackson facial expressions were priceless. The whole introduction to the characters' background was a bit little fast tho. Outta a scale of 1 to 10, I give it a 4.5.

One more thing, they had that fat guy from Keenan and Kel from the show All That(If any of you guys are fimilar with that show).

I saw it in a theater filled with a bunch of like-minded guys, so we were cheering and yelling every so often wheneever Sam or the Snakes did something freakin' awesome.

First there was when the snakes got out and everyone went fuckin' NUTS. After that there were times when we would be cheering, but when Sam Jackson FINALLY said the line we'd all been waiting on I stood up and shouted YES! and promptly everyone was going crazy once again.

So in short I had hella fun.

Nothing really better to do on a Sunday evening, and it eventually had to happen anyway, so I'm gonna check it out with a few friends later on tonight. Will post two cents later~

Now this one I actually liked. Basically on par with those old B movies people would go see for fun on saturday nights that they knew were horrible, but went just for the goofy shock factor. That's what this was.

It was quite entertaining, although it could have been even a bit more over the top. I don't think Samuel L. Jackson's character really had enough of a chance to let loose. A lotta hot female characters (or sky candy, as the pilot said) in this one...I would've gone for the one with the baby and the accent in a heartbeat, as well as...okay, the rest of them.

And since this is bound to come up into discussion sooner or later I'll just bring it up now, not that I care so much. Why are the only two somewhat prominent Asian characters martial artists? And why didn't the good one get any play despite his philanthropic acts on board? *sniffles* Meanwhile the black rap artist shoves and pushes people around with a gun and gets a bajillion white girl groupies~ :cool: In any case, at least the two Asian guys had nice bodies.

And what the hell was up with that music video at the end. Worst thing I've ever seen. Although I'm guessing it was supposed to be bad.

Yeah. That's what every day in the gym will get you...

People were clapping and cheering at that music video, myself included, but different strokes for different folks.

Their bodies were completely impressive and fine. Not the oversized steroid-freak guy the size of a fire truck shoving rice into his mouth in that one pic you posted.

then again the first asian guy was a bit of the typical sadistic "the fact that I speak good English makes me MORE EVIL" abc crimelord type

but then again...

The main bad guy is Asian, he's the dude who let's out all the snakes on the plane and kills people. I don't think this is a movie to support but rather boycott.

Ronny Yu was directing this at first, but he left to direct Fearless.
