I've not seen that film, but I did see Epic Movie (don't even bother) and the only bit I really remember is the bit where they take off Snakes on a Plane.. it's just that line repeated over and over.

Its the only reason to watch it. The whole film builds towards it and when it happens, its so out of place its brilliant.


If you have seen it and want to see something thats even worse - Snakes on a Train is an awful film.

There's a Snakes on a Train? Is that the sequel?

it was released by another production company three days before Snakes on a plane - it was trying to cash in on the "success" of Snakes on a Plane. I felt that the line "there are a lot of Snakes... on this train" didn't quite do it for me in the way the Sam Jackson and all his "*" did.

Not originally it isn't. Its been quoted loads since it was first in a movie in 1944.

Was he an extra (supporting artist) or did he have a speaking role? I can't actually think of many people who had speaking roles beyond the regulars in that episode, with the possible exception of some of the people in the sex shop.

Does he act regularly, or was he just in the right place at the right time?

My aunt used to act (still does a bit, I think) mainly in those police awareness videos and for the role plays in police assessment tests, but did a play at Milton Keynes Theatre, which subsequently went on (with a different cast) to tour America.

No, he's an actor - and having just checked my facts, I have to retract that - he wasn't in Coupling. It was Cold Feet. He doesn't do a massive amount of television, just whatever he can pick up inbetween theatre and touring committments. Like the vast majority of actors he is not famous (although he gets recognised a bit from a Radox commercial he did a it back) - unlike the majority of actors though he seems to work most of the time.

Yeah, my aunt wasn't famous and didn't get a lot of work! So she now works in the Police station reception.

I know one of those people that goes for extras jobs in films and stuff and thinks he's the dogs bollocks for doing it. I'm telling you, I've never known anyone namedrop as much as him, and I've known some world class namedroppers.

I have to squeeze information out of my brother. He is the least star-struck person I have ever met. I do get to meet people sometimes though, and that can be an eye opener. You can tell a lot about someone by observing the difference between the way they speak to an interviewer, or a director, or someone they percieve as important and how they speak to the girl who does their make up or the girl who brings the coffee, and the more famous they are, the more noticeable it is, good or bad.

Was it Anger Management ??

And what about this one !
"Father I'm desparate!"
"Please my son call me Dan"
"I'm desparate Dan !"

Can any of you remember what tv series that came from ?

"...he lived in a mobile home. Married, one child. That didn't work out so he married a grown woman."

"...he was a white guy, moustache, 'bout 6ft 4"
"That's an awfully big moustache"

"We're sorry to bother you at such a time like this, Mrs. Twice. We would have come earlier, but your husband wasn't dead then."

Not strictly a film but still bloody good.

Tell me thats from the files of Police Squad? The first episode if my memory serves me right? The rest of the quotes may well have been as well.

I bought and watched that for the first time while I was away earlier this week - I highly recommend.

They say on the special features that it didn't attract the expected huge audience when it was first shown - it wasn't until the films that people 'got' what it was all about.

It is indeed. I remember the first time I saw it, I totally got what it was about and pissed myself with laughter all the way through it.

A lot of them are on You tube, but I'll probably buy the DVD's as well.
