So the new Anacondas grow to be 50 feet long, 1200 pounds and travel 150 feet per second!!! LOL

bcijoe Aug 06, 2004 07:46 AM

Did you see the trailer to that new movie???

Anacondas.... HOW ORIGINAL !
I'm sure you all remember the move Anaconda (no S) way back a few years... back then, they were about 40 feet long and still terrorizing the country...

Guess they are now back for revenge!!!

is this too much or what!

Then we wonder why we live in a society with fear for any beautiful animal that isn't a dog or a cat...

what a pity.

Then the reports of the guy in NY, supposedly somewhat disabled, with his Macaque Monkey which bit a child because the child pulled on it's hair over and over again..

They blew this one up to seem like the guy should be encarcerated and his monkey removed and put to sleep.. cause a mother couldn't control her child!!!
Then, reporters who have not a damn thing to do, they try to milk it for what they can, and the next day they call the man a BEAST because of drug charges he faced DECADES ago!!!

Yeah I tried Pot when i was a little kid, so now I guess all my animals are killers and I am a conviceted felon and a beast as well... LOL lol LOL

Then they even have a child make some comment like 'I am scared to go outside now, I don't want to play anymore, Monkeys are Bad! ' LOL lol...

Oh man.. what a world..

with all the other situations in which people don't want to take responsibility for their actions. If a parent can't - or won't - control their child and it gets hurt, it's the fault of whatever hurt the child...be it animal, auto or whatever. If someone gets shot, it's the gun's fault...not the person pulling the trigger (got news for you folks, guns don't kill people - people kill people). Just in the local news over the past couple of days was a report of this child that was left in the car (this is Virginia in August...it's HOT) and the child died from overheating. All the news stations are saying what a tragedy it is for the parents...what about the child? How do you 'forget' that you have your child in the car with you? Or the whole drunk driving scenario where they want to hold the bar responsible for selling alcohol to inebriated customers that then go out and have an accident, hurting or killing themselves or someone else. The bar is there to make money, it is the person's own responsibility to regulate their consumption of alcohol. Not to mention you don't have to be wasted to be a danger on the road. Can you tell this whole scenario of a blameless society riles me up? LOL

Anacondas is the sequal I believe. I hate people disliking snakes and I hope to change peopls minds on thier views of herps but I liked Anaconda. This one may not be as good but I like a good B movie. Thats just my two cents. Now the guy with the monkey, yea he is getting screwed over. I mean every dog should be taken away because it could possible bite someone if it is poked or has its hair pulled. Folks don't realize that any animal out there can be dangerous and any animal can not be. But o well thats why folks like us are around to help balance the universe out.

I am very sorry... I LOVE snakes.. but that picture is just WRONG... I won't even allow my child (5 years old) or my cat to be in the same ROOM with our big python when we have her out... and here he's putting this thing around his cat's neck?!

Sorry everybody. That just rubs me the wrong way, screams of something that is just a very basic NEVER EVER EVER DO about snakes... In the blink of an eye that could be dead. Just for a picture.

` Lighten up, each individual snake has its own behavior. This adult male Yellow Anaconda has been non-aggressive since birth. Yes, he is an exception, and a rare one at that ( as far as accepting the cat ). You can't categorize any group of non-venomous snakes any more than you can any group of humans.
` If you consider how many people allow large dogs, some that they don't know well at all, around their children, and other pets, can you say that there is no danger there?
` You must have an unpredictable, or aggressive Python. This Anaconda goes to elementary schools to teach kids. He likes to "surf" a crowd of kids. Sometimes, he ties two or three together and gives them the giggles. He also likes to get under their shirts, and tear them off, got to watch that! That's about the only problem.

Oh, my god! This just shouldn't happen. That little girl could be constricted and swallowed in a nanosecond! I don't even let my four-year-old look at my rosy boa. Somebody call a newspaper to publicize this so that legislators can make new herp laws.

The movie says that they are in Borneo.....ANACONDAS DON'T LIVE IN BORNEO!
This just shows what hollywood will do for thrills....they don't even do their homework....maybe a retic could be seen in Borneo....but that wouldn't be a very good movie title...."Reticulated Python"....lol

.....idiots.....

The film *Anaconda* is set in the Amazon. Steven Cale (Eric Stoltz) is a scientist in search of the legendary lost Amazon tribe called "the People of the Mist."

Luke9815 Aug 07, 2004 06:10 PM

The sequel is in Borneo...
