I am so fucking pumped for this movie, it's not even funny.

snakes on a blog.

I heard that they were thinking about changing the name, and when Samuel Jackson found out, he just about dropped out of the film. I understand that they are keeping the name.

i don't see how they could change it.

also, that poster is fucking intense.

I'm going to show up to the premier bare-ass naked because I want to experience it as a clean soul. My life begins and ends with Snakes On A Plane, nothing else matters.

i'm embarassed to ask what this is.

I could have sworn that this had been done already.

there was something similar done on snl. but this is a motion picture starring samuel l. jackson, and has nothing to do with said snl skit.

I hope this is for real, but I suppose it doesn't really matter

August 23rd really can't get here fast enough.

That blog is hysterical, check out the fan posters.

That poster is fan-made, it's on the blog.

You are aware that'll put you THAT much closer to Winter, right?

"Pulp Fiction star Samuel L. Jackson was so amused by the title of new movie Snakes On A Plane, he signed up without reading the script. The movie features an assassin who intends to kill a passenger on a flight by releasing a batch of deadly snakes. Jackson explains, "I didn't even read the script - I just saw the title, 'Snakes on a Plane' and said 'Ok, good. I'm there.' You have got to love that. That's exactly what it is - 500 poisonous snakes released on a flight from Hawaii to Los Angeles. They are (set free) on a time release half-way there, so we can't go back, we've got to keep going. It's fun!" "

maybe this is how Chloe Sevigny ended up in Brown Bunny.

Snakes on a Plane will keep me warm well on til next April

Wow, this sounds like one of the dumbest movies ever.

I went on a Snakes on a Plane barcrawl two weeks ago. We had tshirts and everything.

oh, this is good. blog entry of a scriptwriter asked to rework the script.

Directed by this guy:

David R. Ellis ex-Disney actor turned stunt man turned director. He picked this up after Ronny Yu (Bride of Chucky) dropped out. He's responsible for the following classics:

Cellular (2004)
Final Destination 2 (2003)
Homeward Bound II: Lost in San Francisco (1996)

This will be less than thrilling. Honestly, the concept is by far better than the outcome.
To my mind it would've been better AS an SNL skit.

This thread is my initial exposure to the movie, and I hate it already.

the thread, or the movie?

"Pardon me ma'am. I know this sounds silly but have you seen any suspicious snakes on board?"


"Hey, where's my pet mouse?"

best quote ever?

Great. The terrorists win.

Hah, good call.

Boys Don't Cry star Chloe Sevigny was so amused by the title of new movie Cocks in a Mouth, she signed up without reading the script. The movie features an actor/director who intends to have an orgasm by moving his cock in and out of a mouth. Sevigny explains, "I didn't even read the script - I just saw the title, 'Cocks in a Mouth' and said 'Ok, good. I'm there.' You have got to love that. That's exactly what it is - 500 million sperm cells released in a mouth during a blowjob. They are (set free) prematurely half-way there, so we can't go back, we've got to keep going. It's fun!"

10/10 post.

11/10 post for typing the words "Boys Don't Cry" consecutively.

I read an interview and it completely changed my view of Mr. Jackson. Basically he was saying how he spent most of his childhood in the theaters so he signs up to do these 'bad' movies because they are the ones he enjoyed watching as a kid and does it for fun (Although I'm sure the cash helps). He explained he did that Deep Blue Sea film because he always wanted to get eaten by a shark.


As for the film, I am pumped.

What the fuck is this?

Gold. Pure gold.

Great. Now we'll have to deal with the inevitable sequels:

Snakes on a Train
Snakes on a Subway
Snakes on a Mode of Public Transportation
Snakes on the Submarine

etc.

is that Fat Albert?
me thinks he's probably the first to go...if you follow tradition.

Snakes in a Jungle
Snakes in a Zoo

The list is endless.

Does that mean we'll have a special re-release of

Dude, "snakes in a jungle". Plural. Anaconda's one big eighty-three mile long snake. A snake that can type, drinks Tipex, and can still dance with the stars until dawn.

No one remembers this no matter how many people I ask. Did you see it? It had John Goodman in it, right? And talking snakes? Aired in 1998 or something towards the very end of one of the shows. I remember seeing it and thinking it was really funny, and then talking about it with some other kid in a computer class I had.

"Anaconda II" - it's back, it's pissed, AND it's pregnant...

Doesn't the condition imply the mood?

He'd made the same comments on NPR as well. Also discussed having a real gun put to his head by the LAPD around the time Pulp Fiction was released. He'd been to a play with friends and someone had called the police saying there was a group of armed men standing on the corner.
The policemen even noted that he looked familiar but he didn't admit to his identity. They just told them to leave and not stand on there anymore. I'm sure he's chosen all sorts of oddball flicks but the fact is this hardly means that they'll be any good. If there's anything you can't blame Jackson for. It's choosing to keep working and not worry about his rep so much.

BEHOLD the official trailer:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=8aAkHGCuQT4

This is officially the stupidest film of the century. I can't wait to sit through three months of crappy previews on TV.

the snake coming out of that chick's tits is awesome

and so realistic!

I guess you don't fly Southwest, you wouldn't believe the crazy shit that happens in section C.

i totally fly southwest. i'm post college, broke and from the east coast. i'm always an "a".

anyway, i meant the snake itself looked pretty real. in that, its a shitty shitty cgi job.

New link to trailer

That has to be the worst CGI in the history of man. It looks made-for-tv movie quality. BTW, I'm pretty sure Samuel L. Jackson beats a dude with a snake in the trailer.

As discussed in the slsk chatroom, I get a kick out of how S.O.A.P. is quickly becoming an online bon mot, sort of a wacky charming way of sighing, throwing your hands up, and saying "C'est La Vie."

Oh man, your dog shit on the tile again. That sucks. But what can you do? Snakes on a plane, man. Snakes on a motherfucking plane.

That would explain why the font sucks.

Hey man, snakes on a plane.

Woman to Wed 'Boys Don't Cry' Killer

LINCOLN, Neb. (March 18) - A Chicago woman has been granted a marriage license to marry one of the killers portrayed in the movie "Boys Don't Cry."

Justine Mirth, 32, says she can't wait to marry Tom Nissen, who is serving life in prison for the 1993 slayings of three people in a farmhouse in southeast Nebraska.

"I'm dying to go see him. I want to hold him," she said. "He's the man I love. I want to spend the rest of my life with him."

The crime inspired the award-winning 1999 movie starring Hilary Swank, who played one of the victims, 21-year-old Teena Brandon, who was born a woman but lived as a man in southeast Nebraska under the name Brandon Teena.

The couple have never met in person. Mirth and Nissen have learned about each other through long letters and scores of 15-minute phone calls - the maximum allowed by the prison.


"I'm dying to go see him."
-Bride-to-be Justine Mirth

When she saw the film, Mirth said, she identified with the characters who played Nissen and his co-defendant, John Lotter, who is on death row. She had grown up "in a small, stupid town in Indiana," she said, and escaped by running with a rough crowd.

"These were people I would hang out with in real life," she said.

Prosecutors said Teena was killed in a farmhouse, along with two witnesses, because he reported being raped by Lotter and another man after they discovered his biological identity.

Snakes on a Plane Logo Revealed!
Source: Entertainment Weekly March 23, 2006


Entertainment Weekly has your first look at the new logo for New Line Cinema's Snakes on a Plane, starring Samuel L. Jackson and hitting theaters on August 18. Check out the logo in full here!

The Hollywood Reporter also says that Snakes on a Plane went back before the cameras this month for five days of additional shooting in Los Angeles. The film wrapped principal photography in September in Vancouver.

In this case, it wasn't the usual reshoot, hastily assembled to fix a nagging story problem. Instead, the studio decided to create new scenes that would take the movie from PG-13 into R-rated territory. The second round of filming also came about because of intense and growing fan interest in the movie.

When director David Ellis assembled Jackson and others for the recent shoot, the filmmakers added more gore, more death, more nudity, more snakes and more death scenes. And they shot a scene where Jackson does utter a line that fans have demanded.

In the film, Jackson plays an FBI agent who is escorting a witness on a flight from Hawaii to Los Angeles when an assassin releases hundreds of deadly snakes on a commercial airplane in order to eliminate the witness. The FBI agent, along with a rookie pilot, frightened crew and passengers must then band together in a desperate attempt to survive.
