What's the deal with Snakes on the Plane?
Edited on Sat Mar-25-06 09:25 PM by The empressof all
I know Samuel Jackson, Snakes, Planes.....:shrug: I spent a half hour with 6 teen age boys who were practically salivating at the thought of this movie.

Here's one of the spoof trailers I found

Anyone who goes to it can't say they didn't know what they were getting. I mean it's right there in the fucking title.

And there's not a fucking thing you can do about it.

Not when there's snakes on a plane!!! (And yah since Aug 18 is a day before my birthday.. I'm probably going to drag a few of my friends to see it) :evilgrin:

Furthernote: I prefer this parody trailer for some reason. http://youtube.com/watch?v=3-LJngAsO18&search=snakes%20plane%20trailer%20sam%20samuel%20jackson

7. Okay--it is real.
May the good Lord help us all.

By the way, for those of us afraid of neither snakes nor planes, this movie is a waste. Not that it isn't a waste anyway...

11. Glorious. F---king glorious.
I present the following litmus test: Anyone who doesn't laugh after hearing this title has no sense of humor. Not a scintilla.

12. Trivia from IMDB:
Samuel L. Jackson only signed on for this film because the title was "Snakes on a Plane". When the film makers tried to change it to "Flight 121", Jackson was adamant to keep it "Snakes on a Plane".


:rofl:

"Enough is enough. I've had it with the snakes."

13. It's going to be the best film of the year. That's what it's about.
If you don't think so, then you better stay off the plane. Oh YaHHHH.

This thing looks like the perfect summer, "what the hell am I doing in the movie theater, oh yeah, laughing my ass off" movie.

14. "I want these snakes, off the motherfuckin' plane!" That line was added in
so we really know how he feels about it. :silly:

It seems SO DUMB that it's got to be hilarious. The title alone is so obvious that it's just got to be.
