Am I the only one who Missed the SOAP train?

Look, I can watch Samuel Jackson yell and kick ass for hours. They can have a movie called Samuel Jackson Yelling and Kicking Ass and I’d se it.

I would pay to see this. Two or three times. Then buy it on DVD.

Heh – I haven’t been following the Snakes hype, so when I originally saw this thread title (not having opened it yet), I assumed it was about the 70s sitcom.

Same here, to the point of reading Captain Amazing’s post in the same voice as the announcer.

SOAP, not SoaP.

What’s the difference?

Here’s Samuel L. Jackson on the Daily Show talking about the movie (YouTube link). He and Jon Stewart seem to be firmly in the “giddy fanboy” camp (I think Sam’s almost as excited as the rest of its fans!).

It’s probably hard to see in the clip, but Samuel L. Jackson puts his foot on Jon’s desk to show off his special pair of Vans sneakers with the movie’s logo on them. He’s his own biggest fan! Or at least, Snakes’s biggest fan.

As for the difference between Soap and SoaP- one’s a 1970s sitcom that poked fun at soap operas, and the other is an acronym for “Snakes on a Plane.”

Thanks for the link! I caught about the last half of that when it aired … Just the half about killed me. “They wanted to make it Pacific Air 121. You know who’s in that movie? Meredith Baxter-Birney. I don’t see that movie. But you know who’s in Snakes on a Plane? Samuel Fucking Jackson!!!.”

Which one is which?
Don’t take this too seriously, folks. Remember, I’ve been joking about SoaP from the start.
