Snakes on a Plane

**Aberdonian Stu** · 18/08/2006, 2:26 PM

Romantics celebrate the 14th February...

Steak and bj enthusiasts enjoy the 14th and 20th of March....

Stoners have 420 (20th of April)...

But the day of the year I am most grateful for is August 18th...because that's the day Snakes on a Plane hits our screens.

"It's not Gone with the Wind. It's not On the Waterfront. It's Snakes on a Plane!" -- Samuel L. Jackson

well, it didn't get released to the reviewers before it's release date for the newspaper reviews which means, as predicted, it's gonna suck.

Hah - you can't predict anything when Snakes on a Plane are involved! This is the first critic-proof film in history, why should a bunch of tightarsed journos get to see it before anyone else?

If sending it to a phone, do you have to put the Irish code?

. And is it just landlines or mobiles aswell?

They actually got Sam Jackson to go back into the studio and say the line "I want these motherf�ckin' snakes off this motherf�ckin' plane!" after so many fans said it would be fantastic to hear him say it.

Is this just clever marketing of a sh!te movie? Have they just picked a really dodgy title & play on the whole obvious title, obvious plot thing?

**Aberdonian Stu** · 18/08/2006, 7:31 PM

Apparently they sent the script to Jackson on a wing and a prayer and he loved the title.

So much that when he learnt from an interviewer that they were considering changing the title he made the comment in my above post about the importance of the name.

It was meant to be an under the radar b-ish-movie with great dvd sale potential (because of Jackson) but has turned into a potential hit because of internet hype.

I think people are going on the "so bad its good" angle

How could any film involving Samuel Jackson, snakes and a plane possible be sh!t?

Samuel L Jackson hasn't done a good movie in years. Anyway care to name the last one?

I agree they going for so bad it has to be worth watching - doesn't matter if people hate it as already paid their cash.

**Aberdonian Stu** · 19/08/2006, 10:49 AM

Rotten Tomatoes gave it 62%, which isn't bad.

I read the reviews from the NY Post and some Seattle paper and they both said it is exactly what the fans were hoping for.

Going tonight.
