Aside from the name- anyone think this film looks good ?
I have yet to see a film with Samual L Jackson in it I didnt like.

mack 03-28-06 09:28 PM

from the quote? GREAT film! :D

Ford 03-28-06 09:38 PM

It seems like Sam will be in anything now. I think Don Cheadle has officially taken his crown as the coolest actor. George Clooney is a close second, but Don is Don.

TheUsualSuspect 03-29-06 12:30 AM

Jackson took the lead in this movie without reading the script. He took it based on the name alone.

I'm getting an Eight Legged Freaks feel here, but with snakes.....on a plane.

OG- 03-29-06 12:40 AM

And there ain't a GOT-DAMN thing you can do about it!

7thson 03-29-06 02:35 AM

Another name and this movie could do double at the Box Office what it will do.. Oh well.

Sexy Celebrity 03-29-06 10:12 AM

There is going to be a movie called Snakes On A Plane about snakes boarding an airplane and, I guess, causing a commotion, killing people, hissing, slithering around seats, eating peanuts (and people), and possibly joining the mile high club?

I'm all for it! ;)

Monkeypunch 03-29-06 01:11 PM

The fact that this film is called Snakes on a Plane, and is unabashedly a B-Movie, that it makes NO attempt to pretend it's anything more than it is, makes me want to see it. Looks better than Eight Legged Freaks, too, and I liked Eight Legged Freaks. This could be the next Tremors (if you ignore the crap sequels, Tremors was a brilliantly funny B-Movie.)

Sexy Celebrity 03-29-06 01:48 PM

The idea of snakes on a plane is very scary, considering I'm scared of both. But if I'm not on the plane with the snakes - hilarious!

Revenant 03-29-06 02:25 PM

Samuel L Jackson said he signed up just because of the title. Been so much interest that it's been said they want to increase the amount of gore and snakes.

It's sure to be a cult film of the future.

Opie Wayne 03-29-06 08:19 PM

I have seen a small homemade add for this film, and I must say that I expect to drop my jaw laughing if nothing else...

The words went a little something like this-"We got M***** F***ing snakes, on a
plane...B**ch!!!!"-Samuel L. Jackson

please note the dramatic pause between snakes and plane.

Austruck 03-30-06 12:00 AM

Wait, I thought the wacky zany scary movie that's the next Tremors that's coming out soon was Slither? What did I miss??

Bill 03-30-06 02:07 PM

Isn't Kenan Thompson in this movie?

Yoda 03-30-06 02:08 PM

The trailer's up.

This is so genius it makes my face want to explode.

Apparently they spent 5 days reshooting to add more gore, death, nudity, and, of course, more snakes. Also, after the phrase "we've got to get the motherf**kin' snakes off the motherf**kin' plane!" was suggested (nay, demanded) by fans, the studio did, in fact, include it in the finished version in a fantastic nod to the cult status the film achieved on the strength of its title and star alone.

Viral marketing, thy name is Snakes on a Plane.

I need to see Slither certainly, it looks awesome, but it just doesn't have the name value of Snakes on a Plane, and it doesn't have Samuel L Jackson, who is a cult movie GOD.

Oh, and I'm hurt you didn't already know this, because it's prehistoric news.

Yoda 03-30-06 04:25 PM

As long as the footage is real, it's good enough for me. And yeah, a couple of those snake shots look pretty cheesy.

7thson 03-30-06 07:22 PM

Rats on a plane would be better

That or Mormons

Samual L Jackson stars in- the sequal to the cheesiest titled movie of all time.

Mormons on a plane !!!

there will be a bible under your seat in the theater!

Austruck 04-20-06 09:23 PM

Okay, confirmation: Some of those trailers are FAKE (but darn good!):

-----------

By ERIN CARLSON

NEW YORK (AP) - The buzz - or hiss - began with the movie's title, a plot-spoiling punch line that rapidly evolved into an Internet phenomenon: Production stills were posted on the Web, followed by mock movie trailers and posters, R-rated audio clips, silly songs, poems, even a line of T-shirts.

"Snakes on a Plane" arrives in theaters Aug. 18, but is already a cult blockbuster for fans who snicker at its B-movie premise.

The thriller stars Jackson as an FBI agent protecting a witness on a jet full of lethal serpents unleashed by the mob.

Brian Finkelstein, the 26-year-old creator of the fan Web site Snakesonablog.com, said the daffy title is what galvanized people to spoof the movie even before the New Line Cinema production finished filming.


"It all came exclusively out of the title, and how honest and straightforward and clear the title was. There was no metaphor, no symbolism. Everything you needed to know about the movie was right there in the title," said Finkelstein, whose site has received an estimated 300,000 hits since its January debut.

The title made for an easy crossover into the pop-culture vernacular.

The slang Web site UrbanDictionary.com has eight ways to define the phrase, including: "A simple existential observation that has the same meaning as 'Whaddya gonna do?' or '(Stuff) Happens.'"

But leave it to merry Internet pranksters to drop an unprintable profanity - twice. In a popular audio trailer crafted by 19-year-old Chris Rohan of Bethesda, Md., a smack-talking Jackson imitator yells: "I want these (expletive) snakes off the (expletive) plane!"

Rohan said the title "sounds stupid, but that's what makes it brilliant" - thus inspiring him to write and record the trailer while enlisting a friend to voice rough-and-tumble Jackson.

In another send-up, a video clip presents impersonations of Christopher Walken and Jack Nicholson.

"There are snakes," complains a faux Nicholson, with Joker-like exaggeration. "On the plane. And they're biting. And they're scaring people."

Yet another video follows a 4-year-old as he flies a paper airplane smothered with rubber snakes. Guided by the boy's hand, a plastic figurine kicks them off. In a making-of featurette, the boy says sound effects - "making loud noises" - were most challenging.

Posted on Finkelstein's site, a fan-made love duet titled "Two Snakes on a Plane" includes the lyrics: "We could spend our lives together like two snakes on a plane/Shed our skins and wrap each other in all that still remains."

The snake hoopla comes at a time where there's a vast audience downloading and sharing satirical spoofs of all genres, such as widely circulated mock trailers of "The Shining" and a "Titanic" sequel, titled "Titanic: Two the Surface."

New Line recently requested that the movie's PG-13 rating be switched to R and ordered the shooting of additional scenes, including one with Jackson spouting an expletive like in Rohan's trailer.

"More power to that," Rohan said. "I love just hearing Samuel L. Jackson blurt out the F-word every five seconds."

Pyro Tramp 04-21-06 09:52 AM

Is my computer just crap, or is the trailer only noise?

OG- 04-21-06 10:30 AM

Your computer is just crap.

But just imagine really bad CGI and you'll probably be fairly close to what the unofficial trailer looks like.

Reservoir Drought 04-21-06 09:44 PM

You know I think this movie will be so bad it'll be good. Come on, it's called "Snakes...on a plane!"

7thson 04-21-06 10:08 PM

Sequels I can already imagine:

Giant Squids on a Train

Maggots at a Circus

MOFO's at the Oscars

Im hoping for a bit part in the last one.:)

Austruck 04-22-06 01:41 AM

Oh, this could get interesting:

"Dung Beetles in a Honda Civic"

"Great White Sharks on Space Mountain"

I think I'm going to have nightmares.

thmilin 04-22-06 02:46 AM

you know what i love most about this trailer? my favorite, favorite scene?

the snakes careening into the camera on a serving cart, the very, very end shot before it cuts out. i can't stop laughing ... cuz they made it like, all intense ... but the true danger is the cart, not the snakes ... oh my god.*pant* ...

i liked that article ... what if we take that kid with his rubber snakes on the paper plane and have them careen into the camera with real sound affects? just awesome ... man ...

nooo, nooo, you've got to have the creature make slightly no sense, but also be dangerous, and the location they appear in needs to be mundane. otherwise, there's no ... bite.

"Killer Bees in a Convention Center"

"Pythons on a Canoe"

"Hyenas on a Bus"

etc.

Yoda 04-22-06 02:50 AM

My favorite part is Shaft shooting a snake in the face from half a foot away. Such brilliant overkill.

Oh yeah? Have you ever OWNED a Honda Civic?? :o

Reservoir Drought 04-23-06 02:18 PM

My favourite part was the guy looking for his breathing mask and it's a snake. "Safety my butt!"

Hey hey JRS, good to see you back!

Austruck 05-04-06 10:19 PM

That really looks more like "Snakes Around A Plane" to me.



*koff*

thmilin 05-05-06 02:18 PM

i am craaaacking up ...

i know, honda civics are mundane, but it's too small, we need something slightly more grandiose than a 2-4 seater ...

Nexus 05-13-06 05:58 AM

This is going to be the Best Film Ever.

Reservoir Drought 05-26-06 04:50 PM

Okay, couple things. Anyone else notice in the trailer than Samuel's speech is EXACTLY the same as the one in "Deep Blue Sea"?

I'm also thinking for this film that there'll be some big ass anaconda he'll have to fight at the end.

StonednAlone 05-27-06 06:25 AM

this movie will be good to watch ten years from know when i stumble in from the bars and catch it on the late night usa network.


ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOS ANYBODY

WARNING: "Deep Blue Sea" spoilers below
Maybe a couple of big ass anacondas go chomp chomp on him too just like the sharks did 'during' his similar pumped up speach in Deep Blue Sea. :D

Reservoir Drought 05-27-06 08:49 PM

I don't know I just think it's hilarious.

madeux 05-28-06 02:05 AM

I saw the preview for this when I saw X-men 3.... How stupid can a movie be? I don't know what they were thinking with this one...

Here, I think you need to read this: Tongue-in-cheek.

I was very displeased that I did not see the Snakes on a Plane trailer when I went to go see X-Men 3. I hope you get stuck on a plane with snakes, 'cause you'll be all like "this is stupid." Then you'll be eaten by a snake, and I'll laugh because of the irony.

Oh, good job Yoda, madeux got owned.

Sccrmn1265 05-30-06 10:34 PM

My friend has told me about it...not coming till August and already there are people making fun of it, lol...I don't think this movie will be worth anyone's money unless they just want to laugh at it the whole time...I won't see it

People were making fun of it on blogs with photos of the film , way before it was even in the headlines.

That is precisely what most of the people who see it will want to do; that's the entire point of the film. It's called camp, and apparently it's lost on more than a few moviegoers.

wonderwall 05-31-06 12:53 PM

When I first heard about it, I thought it was all a joke, but then I saw the preview. And it really is quite literally, snakes on a plane -_-;

7thson 06-09-06 10:12 PM

I am wondering what others think about this:

Are most "good" or maybe I should say "popular" cult movies meant to be cult films? IMO I think a good cult film is not meant to be such when it is first released. This movie seems to be made for cultdom. Not sure if thats good or bad, although I am looking forward to it.

Hell yah, Colic. I've been tracking that movie ever since that first awesome teaser poster a few months back. I love the new poster as well.

Gotta love how politically incorrect this movie already is.

Pyro Tramp 06-22-06 09:17 AM

I'll admit, i only know about it from your site but that trailer is insanely cool. Did the rounds with it on MySpace, got a lot of errr, happy fans :D

:cool:



B-card 07-11-06 05:47 PM

The movie looks like an old horror movie like The Attack of the killer tomatos or Arachnophobia and its going to be interesting to see something like that in 2007

Heidimonster 07-12-06 12:42 PM

hm...I almost feel as if it were a comedy.

NapalmInTheMorning 08-13-06 06:14 PM

I'll be on here right after I see it Friday with a review, so look out for it. I don't know if I'm gonna like it or not. I am mostly just going to see it because of the title and Samuel.
