That was good? I didn't see it.

I liked "Frequency" too. Just saying, a bit sappy.

Not like this. I read an article in one of the newsmagazines talking about how this is the first time the reaction of people who haven't even seen the movie has shaped it. It's sort of the reverse of test screenings.

Frankly, I don't think Snakes will be even entertainingly bad or cheesy. But I still have to get behind it because it's so cool.
