Watching movies for the lulz factor
1. Snakes on a Plane
This popped on TV while I was in the living room, and I was all "no, don't change the channel, I want to see how bad it is!" But yesss, finally watched it and let me tell you, in the end I was disappointed because the lulz were less than advertised. It can all be summed up in my family's conclusion, but sadly it's too Venezuelan to be translated while maintaining the pun:
Mom: ¿Ya se terminó tu culebrón?
Me: ...ahora que lo dices, esto tuvo más culebrón que culebras.
Meaning there was too much character drama and too little snake scenes. But eh, at least it was worth it just for the scene where the grumpy old man throws the valley girl's chihuahua to the anaconda's mouth, or when they break the windows and the snakes go flying. These will be printed in my mind forever! XD (what? it's a glorified B movie! I can spoil something like that, can't I?)
2. Lilo & Stitch
I knew I'd like it because of the quirky factor, and because I just can't resist stories with LOL ALIENS (and this was the whole point, mind you). What I didn't expect was this moving breaking my heart to the point of sobbing. I think this became one of my top favorite Disney movies.
Also, are the sequel and TV show too toxic? Because I want more, and I vaguely remember seeing some episodes like a year ago when I had the Disney channel combo, and didn't seem that bad by then.
ETA: Egg.

I really do love Lilo & Stitch, it's one of the modern 2D Disney movies I've enjoyed more lately. I've seen some episodes on the telly sometimes, but they looked quite bad and didn't catch my attention. And I know nothing about the sequel :/ (Disney sequels make me wary)

Never watched sequel/TV show but I think the TV show has a good rep on TV Tropes.

Sobre la serie: Joomba y Pleackey se casan en la serie. Bueno, *casi*.

Por la película ni me voy a gastar intentando mirarla, no creo que valga la pena ni aún para reírme.
Vi la secuela de Lilo & Stitch y sirve para más LULZ. No llegué a ver la serie. Y estaba igual que tú cuando vi la peli, no creí que fuera tan "Ohana significa Familia, y tu familia nunca te abandona." Fue algo que hizo que me gustara también.
