OK, I've heard something about this movie on this board, but I don't see a thread. Does anyone else feel this movie is a big joke and that it's not actually coming out in theatres lol.
My friend has been raving about it for about a year. No joke. I thought it was just something someone created on youtube, like Brokeback to the Future or some spoof ... yet each day something new comes out to suggest this is a real movie ...
Is anyone else in such disbelief and shock that movies have come to this ...
oh well ... my friend thats been raving for months is paying for me ;D

You guys didn't hear of it till now??? I heard about it a couple months when Kevin Smith mentioned that he was unfortunate to share the release date of Clerks 2 with it. Of course since then, the Clerks 2 date got pushed forward making for a great movie in itself.
Snakes on a Plane seems like the action film you're meant to laugh at. I don't remember the original name, but it was something less comical, Phoenix something or other? Regardless, I heard that Samuel L. Jackson claimed he would stop shooting in the film if the name wasn't Snakes on a Plane.

Hold on ... isn't this the kind of thread that gets people banned?!?!
(Yes, another inside joke among Blue Jays boardies.)
I first heard about this movie a few weeks ago when they were doing a promo at Yonge and Bloor in Toronto. I hated the movie right away, because I hate ANYTHING that takes up sidewalk space and makes a lot of noise. Also ... I hate the title. To repeat what I said in the ill-fated thread on the Blue Jays BBQ, it's one of those titles that tells you "this is a bad movie". Previous examples: "Eat My Dust", "Stop or my Mom Will Shoot", and "Dude, Where's My Car?"
Thumbs down for me. I haven't seen the movie, but thumbs down.

The funny thing about this movie is that it getting TONS of promotion... almost enough to make me just have to go see it...
The title song for this movie (can't remember the name) has actually hit the top 40 charts!

Flight 191? That's what I was under the impression. And yes Sammy said he would stop shooting if the changed the name.
"The title song for this movie (can't remember the name) has actually hit the top 40 charts!"
Song is named, "Snakes on a Plane (Bring it)"
I know so much about this movie. Mainly because my friend tells me everyday. He also has 2 tshirts already.

It actually has a somewhat acceptable plot that a terrorist put poisonous snakes on a plane or something like that. By acceptable I mean that the snakes just didn;t happen to randomly appear and attack.

Its going to do well because advertising is so good. I mean Samuel L Jackson knows its a cult classic, saying on shows its quite possibly the best movie ever made knowing its pretty funny. Keeping the name Snakes on a Plane, making the phone call thing on the offical website, its brilliantly simple yet makes people want to see it.

This movie is nothing more than a sci fi channel movie with a big budget.

This is honestly going to be the greatest movie ever made. I got banned from the Scout.com Jays forum for supporting the film, as 85Jays' post hints at, but it was worth it. Anyone who doesn't understand the brilliance behind this concept won't appreciate the film for its audaciousness and camp value. It reads like a B-serial from the 1950s and is supposed to be horrendously foolish. With that said, all of the above is precisely where the appeal lies!
PLUS IT'S GOT SAMUEL L. JACKSON KILLING SNAKES -- ON A PLANE!

Is there even any real snakes in the movie or are the all computer generated?

Today I saw a plane pulling a banner advertising this movie. Everyone in my office groaned and said it sounded like a retarded movie. I dont think it'll do well if we're a true sample of the population
though we are all reasonably intelligent, so I doubt that we are very representitive
