What's the deal?!
19 years ago
Ok honestly, this is totally puzzling me.
WHAT'S THE FUCKING DEAL WITH SNAKES ON A PLANE?!
It's not like this is something new. I mean really animals killing people. Whee hoo all new! yeah right! I've seen several movies and dont ask why but they were on sci fi channel and I used to watch it a lot, with birds, giant snakes, bees, spiders, fish, bats, mosquitos, and several others like them. Personally I find many of them to be ultra cheesy. Booring, and rediculous.
In my oppinion Alien was the only film that truly succeded with this theme. Who doesn't love a xenomorph?! So yeah some one please tell me what's so special about this Snakes on a plane thing? People are saying it like the new "Oh Snap". not that any of this is pissing me off or anything but I really dont see why this is such a big phenomena?

FA+

1. Small setting, it's on a plane. Unless they somehow manage to land it it blah blah.
2. It has to be some engineered super-toxic snakes with super-powAHS. Otherwise, they could lock themselves in the cockpit and in the bathroom.
3. The title. It's as about as mysterious as THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE.
4. The plot. They're running away from a snake. Wee. Exciting.
5. How many snake related "survival" flicks have there been?
When was the last time you saw an original movie?
One not ripped of a book, or the idea's been done to death.
Back in the day there was entertainment. This is just a lack of imagination.
Totally unimpressed.
Samual Jackson(whatever his middle initial is.....)
Told the director he would quit if he changed the name.....
here:
"The casting of popular actor Samuel L. Jackson further increased anticipation. At one point, the film's working title was altered to Pacific Air Flight 121. In August 2005, a perturbed Samuel L. Jackson told an interviewer, "We're totally changing that back. That's the only reason I took the job: I read the title."[4] In another interview in early 2006, Jackson claimed that once he learned about the movie title being changed he said: "What are you doing here? It's not Gone with the Wind. It's not On the Waterfront. It's Snakes on a Plane!"[5] On March 2, 2006, the studio reverted the title to Snakes on a Plane.
In recognition of the unprecedented Internet buzz for what had been a minor movie in their 2006 line-up, New Line Cinema ordered five days of additional shooting in early March 2006[6] (principal photography had wrapped in September 2005). While re-shoots normally imply problems with a film, the producers opted to add new scenes to the film to take the movie from PG-13 into R-rated territory and bring the movie in line with growing fan expectations. Among the reported additions is a line that originated as an Internet parody of Samuel L. Jackson's traditional movie persona: "That's it! I have had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane!".
On June 3, 2006, Samuel L. Jackson said, while presenting the award for best movie at the MTV Movie Awards, "I'm here tonight to present the award everyone's been waiting for: best movie. Now, this award holds a special place in my heart because next year I'll be winning it for Snakes on a Plane. Now I know, I know that sounds cocky, but I don't give a damn. I am guaranteeing that Snakes on a Plane will win best movie next year. Does not matter what else is coming out. The New James Bond... no snakes in that! Ocean's 13... where my snakes at? Shrek the Third... green, but not a snake. No movie shall triumph over Snakes on a Plane. Unless I happen to feel like making a movie called Mo' Motha-fuckin' Snakes on Mo' Motha-fuckin' Planes.""

I say complete bullshit. CBS! XD Just cause Jackson's in it doesn't make it any better of a movie.
"Snakes on a Plane"
Think about that title enough and it becomes the greatest movie ever conceived.
