ham fisted theatrics

Snakes On A Plane used to be a fun idea, but now it has become like when a teacher tries to be in on the joke: even if they sorta get the joke, their trying to insert themselves just makes the whole enterprise icky, wrong, and no fun anymore.

That is why I'm joining the rest of the UCB community in throwing my weight behind the thinking person's bad movie of summer 2006: Little Man.

(Although I like the idea that the producers of An Inconvenient Truth caught wind of some ironic buzz building behind their movie and made Al Gore go back and do reshoots to really ham it up, including him screaming the line "Get this motherfucking warming off my motherfucking globe!")
