Great. Now I’m having flashes of a Shark on a Jet.
It’s like “Brokeback Side Story.”
The official trailer is online at YouTube (among other places, I’m sure).
“Enough is enough. I’ve had it with snakes.”
DAMN RIGHT YOU HAVE, SAMUEL L. JACKSON.
Woah, it’s a double-decker plane. I didn’t see that coming, somehow. The CGI looks like crap, but the movie looks like delicious, delicious fun. Yay!
I can’t find that trailer anywhere else, so I’m not sure it’s officially the official trailer. Looks like a blast, though. It comes out the same day as Clerks 2 so I guess I’ll be busy at the movies that weekend.
There WAS a…snake ON…the wing the PLANE! Why…won’t…ANYONE…believe me?

To ask a serious question (yes, yes, I know)…
In the event of SNAKES ON A PLANE, like in the trailer where the snakes seem to outmass the passengers two to one, would it be possible to depressurize the plane? Seems like people could breathe through their masks and the snakes would go into torpor.
Anyone?
-Joe
Thanks for spoiling the ending!
I’m the dude you want around in a crisis!
Besides, it MIGHT not end that way. Seeing as how we’ve got a guy with a gun shooting SNAKES ON A PLANE I’m guessing it’ll be more of a “Man vs. Nature Wrestling Match” between SLJ and Queen Cobra Big Mama.
The very end will have SLJ Snapping its neck and following with, “I AM THE BADDEST MOTHERFUCKER EVER!”.
Because he killed SNAKES ON A PLANE!

And people say Hollywood is out of touch. This movie proves that there are still men of genius working in Hollywood. They are snakes. They are on a plane. And Samuel Jackson is gonna kick their ass.
Years from now our grandchildren will look back at us today in envy. “Where were you when you first heard about Snakes on a Plane, Grandpa?” they’ll say.
Or “Broke Backside Story” if you like it rough. (I hate myself.)
The great thing about Snakes on a Plane is that it can’t fail to deliver what it promises. Within minutes, if not right at the beginning of the movie, you’ll have a plane. And it won’t be too long after that that you’ll get the snakes. You can’t be disappointed by that. Especially when it’s Samuel L. Jackson vs. Army of Snakeness.
You know, I have no real interest in seeing this movie, although I do agree the concept is grabby. But damn if I’m not getting a smile on my face from the sheer enthusiasm you dopers (and, apparently, everyone else on the internet) is showing for this concept.
It’s grabby, exactly. It sounds exactly like a B-movie, but these days, Hollywood seems to like to pretend its B-movies are something other than B-movies just because they’re expensive. There are no such pretenses with Snakes on a Plane.
Think of all the rip-off movies that are bound to come in its wake.
Spiders in a Fighter Jet
Rottweilers on a Helicopter
Bobcats on a Raft
Rabid Chipmunks in an SUV
Sheep on a Long, Lonely Boat Ride
The title is a work of genius. It’s like King King Versus Godzilla - you’ve got King King, you’ve got Godzilla, and they’re versus. What else do you need to know? Go see the movie.
There’s a treadmill joke in here somewhere, but I think one of the snakes ate it.
“Is that a viper, Victor?”
This is what I like my Summer movies to be like. No sad, gay, love stories, no biopics of famous dead singers, no history lessons. Just SNAKES ON A PLANE! Dammit.
The thing is, snakes dont have asses, but Samuel L. Jackson is such a colossally bad-ass motherfucker than he’s still going to kick their asses even though they don’t have any.
“We have cobras, Clarence.”
Hey, Hal will pay good money to see that!
