Ok after months of build up snakes on a plane came out. I wanna hear what people thought of it. I saw it this past saturday. Since court pointed out the ascent I will say what I thought of it. It was VERY stupid, but it was a WONDERFULLY bad movie. I enjoyed ever minute of its stupidity. From Samuel L. to the ex-nurse hathaway(ER tv series ref) to the annoying cowboy soudning from anchor man it was a fun ride like slither was earlier in the year. not exactly memorable but fun gasp from the end of the summer movie parade.

OK what does this movie and San Diego Comic Con have in common? Nothing at all. Snakes On The Plane is an stupid premise of an movie, no way that the TSA or the Department Of Homeland Security would allow this to happen in real life. Why the hell did SDCC show the preview of this movie is beyond me?

Probably because the production company paid a butt load of money to have it shown. It is great publicity. I am leaning towards the belief that this movie had the greatest PR of all time. I have never seen a somewhat average piece flogged so hard. As a result the theaters are packed. (for better or worse).

Well I believe that only Comic Book and Cartoon based movies should be shown at SDCC and I am getting sick of Production Companies doing that.

Comic-Con is not just for comic books and comic-related material. It is now a pop-culture phenomenon that embraces any manner of pop culture entertainment, whether it be comics, TV, toys, movies...

One of the coolest things I saw at this year's con was the Quentin Tarantino/Robert Rodriguez panel for "Grind House"...it had nothing to do with comic books...and was cool as all hell. That's the great thing about con, it offers a number of interesting activities for fans of any number of different forms of entertainment. I'm not a fan of manga, and yet I certainly appreciate the fact that a lot of people go to con for this reason. I'm not a fan of customizable card games, but that certainly has a place at con as well. Likewise, TV and movies that don't involve comics or animation. It's a diverse event, and you certainly don't have to like everything in the program. But that doesn't mean it doesn't have a right to be there. It's not like you can't find something else to do.

I just wish that they go back to just previewing comics and comic based movies.

This was my fifth year and I have to say even 5 years ago they were promoting non comic stuff pretty good. When was the last year it was strictly comics?

OK...so how can you possibly care what is or is not shown at CCI...when you've never even attended yourself?

In the eyes of future generations, the legend Bounty Hounds Amy Wang is with too many good opportunities, so there will be such a success. In fact, is not the case, many handed down in Amy's famous quote, saying he mention again, but almost all descendants have deliberately forgotten in this sentence: I hope that access to 100 times, 1,000 times the need to pay.

Even fewer people knew that the young Amy, is how hate this sentence.

-- Amy mainland historian and great-great-grandson of the 12th Nierhabo record on hand

※ ※ ※

"Son, was up." Beautiful male voice sounded again.

"Ah, uncle, I Zaishui a will, in a will, the storm too." Just 8-year-old Amy hard begging.

"Ah, cold dead ?d ?d ?d ?d" miserable sounds from the darkness of the black-out. But Hubble-hut near the neighbors have become Final fantasy xi gilaccustomed to the timing of this special alarm clock.

Amy quickly from the small full of snow and ice were Woli jumped out, and the completion of prank Sheng Xue, who used to the bigEVE ISK Mupen on the ground floor, You Youran said a famous saying: "We hope that access to 100 times, 1,000 times of need Pay. I have to put your training into your father even more outstanding than the soldiers. "

Just east of the sky appears Fabai, a freshmanwow gold from the shadow of two small village of Shanghai, heated along the river to the snow on Lake ran in the direction of the past.

Chi Hanfeng time to see all the people will Dofus Kamasagree that he is a nobility. Amy in the Empire, has all the characteristics of aristocratic family: temperament elegant, polite. Chi Hanfeng gives the first impression is this, but the long number found on the other side of the Chi Hanfeng: Cuxia, like Zhuonong people. In Shanghai, two months after the village, and Chi Hanfeng people are familiar with the foreign operators Zhuonong too. We Age of Conan Gold also believe that his own description ?d ?d a soldier, only a minimum of noble titles: nobles Cleveland, and this title is not hereditary also can not have the feudal.
