To Kijuki about the name part: Fear in the Sky and Sky Terror... now THAT sounds bad. Sounds way to 50's and corny. Now Snakes on a Plane, that's catchy.  :violin:


I didnt say to give out that name millenium guy, it was just right out examples of other titles that could fit the situation.

snakes on a plane, just sounds down right obvious.


A movie title's is SUPPOSED to be obvius. How else will you pick it up in the movie store? You don't pick a movie and read the back if the title/cover wasnt interesting.

Spiderman: Its about a man spider. Duh
Ghost Rier: Its about a ghost.. rider. Duh
Godfather: Its about a mafia thing. Duh

Its too obvious.

There were many good movies who's titles werent as obvious mr sandwhich; Jaws, silence of the lambs, predator, lethal weapon, friday 13th, finding nemo, apollo 13, eight below, among a lot of others.

No, titles *arent* supposed to be obvious. At least not THAT obvious. I am not saying it shouldnt be named that, I am saying that the title sucks for the kind of expection it has. Basically it. The title is supposed to accurately give some sense of waht the movie is about and its theme, or if not make sense in a metaphorical way that still describes the movie to some point, were you want to see the movie.

Snake on a plane; analyse it. yes, by the name its gonna be friggin obvious its about snakes on a plane, but just by the title its doesnt tell you anything else, but the whole movie!. The titanic movies were not named "When the Titanic sunk", well pretty much cause most of the ppl know what the story of the titanic was about. It deserved to be simple. Same with spiderman, and daredevil, and superman; these are things we all know about, that most of the population understands. It doesnt need a more complex title, it deserves to be simple. Seriously if I werent to know anything about the movie, and just heard the title "snakes on a plane" i WOULD think is a 50's movie; its too corny and simple for no reason.. unless theres a comic book about or is based on a true story that 50% of ppl here know about, then i'll shut up.

but otherwise dun talk to me about titles being supposed to be obvious... unless of course they are supposed to be obvious o.O

In fact snakes on a plane gives me this feeling:

It bothers me that you can bitch so much about something you haven't even watched, seemingly based on its name alone.

I'm not sure I like the idea of the batman begins sequal. The original batman film with Joker is one of my favourite films of all time.

Also, as to Spiderman 3, you know what'll happen. "Oh I just got happy together with Mary Jane, now I'm going to bond with a symbiote and push her away. OH THE TEENAGE ANGST"

No, you are getting me wrong, I am not saying the movie will suck. I am saying the title sucks big time, and because of it is not in my "to no watch immidiately" list. And also cause the movie itself looks bleh.

Its bothering me you are making dumb childish stupid assumptions for no particular personal reasons like your last sentence... or is there one eh? And also, is good healthy arguments man, learn to take some, you are too stiff.

Good for you, I respect your opinion, but seem to have missed the point of why i showed you the poster. That movie itself was good, but you didnt expect me to say that huh?

And no you wouldnt rather do that; please you are giving me talk  about watching a movie that is getting good ratings.

If they are gonna make batman movies they should find an actor that can play the part =/ the last dude in the batman movie, id dint like, he just didnt fit the character for me. Adn even tho i dun like clooney much, i think he's good amking the batman movies.

As for spiderman 3, I want to see how these people either ruin the trilogy or make  a better one.

You just contradicted yourself. You say that you don't care about SoaP because it is so obvious, then say that an obvious titled movie was good. If you had an experience with a similar title being good, why are you so against another like it?

And yes I would. Just because it gets good reviews, doesn't mean its not a cheesy movie. I was trying to describe something like Godfather, Casablanca, Ben Hur or the likes with that statement.

Is not contradiction; this whole argument has been based on me thinking I will not watch Snakes on a Plane immediately or will it be on my "OMG I AM GONNA WATCH IT WHEN IT COMES OUT" list because of its title.

I am, from a personal view, saying that I do not think the movie will be good, but it is not saying that the movie will be a complete piece of crap cause of it when it comes down to it. Heck it might the best one of the summer/fall, but it will STILL not deprive me for saying "its title sucks BIG time".

The title of the poster is corny and bleh, but the movie for its production age was kinda good. What does that mean? that yeah even bad named movies can be good, but it isnt likely. For the poster i was refering to how the titled sucked.

You keep on thinking i am saying the whole movie will suck for you and everybody else because The title sucks. Will the movie suck as bad as the title? I dont know, but in my POV from the title and previews theres more possibility it will. It might not as for every movie.

Is just not looking that good for me cause of its title and previews.

Godfather, casa blanca werent cheesy movies and they did get good ratings.. so those arent the one you wouldnt watch?

Kij, I'm saying this based on the belief that you have some previous knowledge sucgh as Casa and such were good movies. I'm not going to pretend you have no knowledge of such so you can't make a 'clever' reply to them. Yes, they were good movies, we both know it. But just because a movie gets good reviews doesn't mean its not cheesy as is the case in other movies. But yes, I would rather watch 1000 cheesy, corny movies instead of Casablance, Godfather, Ben Hur, Clopatra, etc.

XD nuff said.

My Father rents "cheesy" movies. And I am not talking old ones, but from like actors you dont know and from companies you never heard of. Me and my older brothers pick on him at times xP. But not to worry, he has more way to make fun of us than anybody.

I've seenthe earth vs spider i think; it was quite entertaining if its the one i am thinking of.

Rofl, sounds good.

One of my favourite cheesy films ever is Trolls 2. I mean, it's so bad that it's superbly good.
