I feel so bad that I missed Samuel L Jackson's call, it's the least I can do to make it up to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobDylan Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 QUOTE(bmags @ Mar 25, 2006 -> 05:59 PM) anyone not want to see that 9/11 movie? cause i'm thinking i don't think i could see it without thinking they made money off a tragedy so soon after a tragedy that the story didn't yet need to be told Oliver Stone would be interested in making money off of it. Paul Greengrass, however, who made Flight 93, is one of the few directors that can pull off a 9/11 movie, and did. I will not bother to see Stone's version, but if anyone wants to see a 9/11 flick, Flight 93 is very, very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a cult film with a title that will either enthrall you with entertainment value or not. There's no middle ground about the film. Not everybody likes Army of Darkness or other cult films like that. It's a niche film and I think it is going to do very well for a niche film.

Buehrle>Wood Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Just got back!!! I know it goes without saying, but it was indeed the greatest movie of all-time. The theater was sold out, and as soon as the movie started and Samuel L's name flashed across the screen, everyone got up to give a standing ovation. It was crazy! I've never seen such a crowd reaction to a movie. The crowd was nuts through the entire movie, clapping when ever Mr. Jackson said a word, or screaming out "SNAKES!!!" whenever appropriate. Oh, man when he said the line, the enitre theater just erupted, and you couldn't even here the rest of his speech. Unfortunatly, the credits at the end had to roll sometime, but not before more standing O's. I'd give it 96 stars out of 4 We mine as well skip the best actor award for Samuel L because it's too obvious. Instead, just give him his lifetime achievment award now- as he'll never be better than he was in this movie(unless there is a sequel of course).

I went to the sneak preview tonight becuase my brother is leaving for school tomorrow and he wanted to see it. Let me say it was the first, and last, sneak preview I will ever go to. I just cant stand people clapping in movies, I hate it. Every time Jackson killed a snake everybody had to clap. I guess I couldnt judge the movie accurately because the crowd, but it was decent. I guess it was what I expected, I like how they mixed in some comedy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Kickass Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 SOAP delivered what it promised, Snakes, Planes and Samuel L Jackson. The crowd was drunk and annoying, I did almost vomit from the movie. It was indeed as stupid and wonderful as I would have expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowerCaseRepublican Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Seeing it tonight at 9 pm. I can't wait! I told my staff about it today at the meeting -- the superintendant said he wants to see it along with the associate principal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not a diehard fan of Army of Darkness but it was a movie I could still enjoy sort of. As in I didnt neccesarily love but I didnt hate it and it didnt look just flat out retarded like Snakes on a PLane lol.....The only way that movie would be mildly interesting if you were mad drunk.

LowerCaseRepublican Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Just got back. On a scale of 10, I give it a 87324987247326472434. So amazing. It wasn't cinematic genius on an art film level but just a great popcorn and soda having action Hollywood blockbuster that was different in the fact that it involved the fans in the sculpting of the film. It was genuinely entertaining and a whole lot of fun to watch. They offered Snakes on a Plane with Sam Jackson and you definitely get snakes on a plane with Sam Jackson.
