You know all of those people running around saying "Snakes on a Plane is stupid! I don't get why people want to see this! What's wrong with the industry!"? Welll, personally, I think they are the stupid ones for not realizing that this is not meant to be taken seriously.
Honestly, come on people. Let's walk into The Holy Grail and call it stupid.
And yes, he DOES think its FUNNY, because THAT WAS THE POINT. "You think a horror movie was funny?"
Evil Dead. Return of the Living Dead. Re-Animator. Nameless others.
They are all horor movies. They are all comedies. Snakes on a Plane wasn't even all that much a horror, more of an action/thriller - and even then, I'd put it's main category as 'Comedy'.
And to call it stupid, yes, it is. Like I said before, that's the point. But here you have tons of legions of fans that love countless action films. Films that defy gravity, realism, anything. For christ sake's someone could FUCKING blow up in a car and just roll out unscratched and they'd just be like "WOAH THAT WAS FUCKING KICKASS DOOD."
In SoaP, as stupid as the movie is - and wants to be- it isn't entirely brainless. The plot makes sense, the events make sense. They give an explanation where things need to be explain. In other movies you could sit there and say "Why don't they just ____?" In this movie, they say THYE DON'T FUCKING DO THAT BECAUSE OF THIS!!!
The AC is broke. The lays were laced with pharamones. One venom didn't solve everyone's issues. Not eveyone lived.
Of course there were far-fetched moments, but really.
I'm just sick and tired of why people don't simply understand that...
SNAKES ON A PLANE IS A STUPID MOVIE. AND IT WANTS TO BE. THAT'S THE FUCKING POINT.
Thank you.
