(high levels of potential spoilification!)
Well, I just got back from seeing SOAP, and man was that cool! It was indeed gorier than I expected, but a whole movie's worth of watching snakes pounce on terrified people and glancing at your friends every couple minutes to bet/anticipate as to when they're going to do so, is worth my nine dollars. Often, you KNOW what's going to happen, and it gives you a lot of time to squirm and wait, which is great. Also, the guy who plays the pilot (the sports dude from Anchorman)... hilarious!
There's a lot of buildup... I kept wanting to skip forward a bit and watch Samuel L Jackson being a badass, which is indeed the core of this movie, is it not?
As for the award for Most Jaw-Dropping Moment? It's all about the big huge "let me give you a hug" python.
Check this thing out! |

Vancouver, BC, at Park and Tilford?
I was there with a squadron of amigos/amigas, as we're all jetting off to Uni soon. |

Gathering an assload of friends to see it tomorrow night. It should be crowded and apparently it's a riot with loads of people. Audience participation in movie theatres can make the worst movie classic. It will of course enhance the already cult status of snakes on a plane. A friend of mine claimed that it will be the rocky horror of this generation.
Now I'm afraid it's too hyped up. I may be disappointed. Ah well, it's Samuel L. Jackson on a plane battling snakes. Can't be bad. |

Not even close. Oh well, coincidence of movie times I guess.

Not really spoilers, but if you havent seen the movie yet you should not read.
Highlight to see
This movie was awesome. When the snake was in the toilet, every guy in the entire theater started moaning because we all knew what was coming. Two points of contention: 1) I really wanted the male flight attendant to die 2) how did the giant ass boa constricter fit in with all the other snakes? its not poisonous and something that large wouldnt have fit in the container with all the others |

in response to #1, i thought he WAS dead for the longest time!
as for #2, do you really think that's the BIGGEST plausibility issue at stake here? |
