Gunn ,'Not Fade Away'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
Okay. Dropping the emotional baggage (I think the entire bottle of wine I drank while watching is helping) to go to SNAKES ON A MOTHERFU--IN PLANE!
More later. Somebody else post while I'm gone, so I don't feel like I'm hijacking the thread. Please.
(OH! I meant to post the other day that I finally saw Breakfast at Tiffany's and it was very silly but I, like everybody in the world, am completely in love with Audrey Hepburn.)
Have you seen her in Roman Holiday yet? She's just ridiculously fall-in-love-withable in that.
I think after drinking a bottle of wine is the perfect state to see SoaP. I have had no wine, but I intend to remedy that before 9:10 tonight.
I'm beginning to see where Emily and I went wrong. Stupid having to drive.
Yes. I must drink tonight.
MOTHERFUCKIN' SNAKES!
That was pretty awesome. It could have been better, but...it was pretty awesome.
The most amusing meta-thing was that not once in the movie does anyone actually say the line "snakes on a plane." They do, however, repeatedly say "Pacific Air Flight 121." Heh.

I love that movie.
I ALSO Love Snakes on a Plane. I think that may have been the most satisfying moviegoing experience of my life. I'm quite sure the bottle of wine and three beers helped. But still. Snakes. Plane. Samuel L. Jackson. Did I mention Snakes? They were there. Biting people. Most of them (the people, but also snakes) died. Gruesomely. It was awesome.
Ha! I did not drink, but it was fun nonetheless. The audience had a disconcerting rhythm of laughter that didn't always have much to do with what was onscreen, but once the action picked up, it was okay.
Man, there was grue and then some. It was the non-snake deaths that made me squint my eyes.
Yeah, those were bad.
I can't wait to see it. Still a little busy right now, though.

Any Akira fans out there with a very large amount of excess cash who want a new motorcycle?
