I watched the recent trailer for the new Anaconda movie starring Jack Black and Paul Rudd, and I am really digging the meta energy that it's exuding. That said, can I just take a second to gush over how perfect the first Anaconda movie was from 1997, which starred Ice Cube, Jennifer Lopez, and Jon Voight?
Because while the new trailer indeed looks pretty crazy, I actually don’t know if it can touch the outlandishness of that first glorious film. The ‘90s were a pretty crazy time, man, and even though I don’t think anybody would call Anaconda one of the best movies of that era, it’s actually one of the first movies I think about whenever I remember the last decade of the 1900s (as the kids like to call it).
