"only instead of being on a bus that can't slow down, it's on a cruise ship that's going 19 miles an hour."

Eric Snider's latest "bad movie" review.

(There are rumors that "Speed 3" may still happen someday.)

If "Ye" means Eric, keep in mind the name of his column over at /Film is "Eric's Bad Movies", where he deliberately watches movies he thinks will be bad in hopes of generating a humorous piece.

It's like the old saying goes: "Put me on a bus that's been rigged to explode if it drops below 55 mph once, shame on you.
Put me on a bus that's been rigged to explode if it drops below 55 mph twice, shame on me."

He eventually sets the ship on a collision course with an oil tanker, but I believe that is Plan B, necessitated by Alex's uncanny ability to figure out that something sinister is afoot merely by observing that Geiger has a set of golf clubs yet is uninterested in the golf match on TV. (That's seriously why Alex is suspicious of Geiger. If you ever meet Alex, do not claim to be a golf enthusiast and subsequently fail to be riveted by a televised golf match! He will try to murder you.)
