Who needs the movie when we got the most entertaining comment section on the internet. |
First, I will acknowledge that if there's going to be someplace on the internet to argue about quicksand then this might as well be the place. Second, let's all acknowledge that you are arguing about quicksand on the internet. |
Isn't that exactly what the internet is, quicksand? |
Why is it called quicksand? If it was, movie would be over in 2 mins. |
FWIW Gentlemen (and Ladies, if present) the DVD cover shows a Royal Python..aka the Ball Python...endemic to Africa. And even wild-caught ones are docile. In addition, they rarely reach 6 feet in length and aren't big enough to eat a human. In the trailer it shows a Boa constrictor, which while common to Colombia where the movie takes place, still don't get large enough (or aggressive enough) to eat a human. Dunno if there are other snakes in the film, but only venomous ones would pose a problem, and they are primarily arboreal and ambush hunters and would not go after a couple in a mud pit. Someone who has watched this film, please fill in the blanks regarding what snakes are in the film other than the Boa, as I do not think I shall watch this. |
just watch and enjoy people. or not!!!. thanks for the FREE post. |
Basically it's like a cabin movie, but instead of a cabin, we are in a puddle - Amazing - or more not so |
It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under... |
When I was young in the 60s, I thought quicksand was gonna be much more of a problem. |
Holy, this movie takes forever to get anywhere. It takes about 20min for *something* to happen, and until 28:30 for quicksand to make its first actual appearance. And the movie's only 85 minutes long, including credits. |
We knew it was going to be a 'slow burner' before we pressed play on the movie projector, hence we fast-forwarded to the 'good' bits |
So, a snake walks into a quicksand pit and I say: -Haven't we seen you in Crystal Skull? |
As soon as I saw the priest, rabbi and bar were missing, I knew this wasn't going to be a very good joke. |
"The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" was the worst, I hope they didn't use it as the inspiration here... I mean, that they don't use the snake as a rope substitute. |
Noted : If you are stuck in quicksand, don't use snake. Go find a rope. |
Dull. 3 out of 10 for effort. An hour in the muck and see the multiple depth changes. The viscosity changes constantly, from thick heavy mud to very runny mud. Annoying as hell. |
Damn, I've senn the trailer. And it supider than one can bear. Some quote from Wikipedia: It is impossible for a human to sink entirely into quicksand, due to the higher density of the fluid. Quicksand has a density of about 2 grams per cubic centimeter, whereas the density of the human body is only about 1 gram per cubic centimeter. At that level of density, sinking beyond about waist height in quicksand is impossible. ... |
so you know this for fact youve been stuck in it before youve seen someone go under and they never find em humm . since i have been stuck in it more then once and have seen someone go under nope its not the displacement its the suction it literally pulls you down and under, evil things they are .... |
let me add this also depends on where you live florida quick sand is evil, where i live now the quick sand is much more watery and it looks like you could swim on it, its different then there i can get out of this stuff with my shoes .. |
