What the hell. S.O.A.P.

[Dave]

Snakes on a Plane. Why. God why. What the hell is this crap and why is Samuel L. Jackson doing it?

And WTF @ him DEMANDING they keep the name "Snakes On a Plane."

WHAT THE HELL. Do these people know how stupid this movie sounds? I hope the graphics are as horrible as The Thing Below.

[Lyonaz]

Snakes on a Plane sounds way better than that other title they wanted 'Pacific Flight -random number-' or something like that. It has that campy B-title thing going for it. And seriously if there were snakes on a plane, wtf would you do man... snakes on your frickin plane! =P

But come on, it's Samuel L. Jackson!

Personally I can't wait for his Afro Samurai, this year the anime and next year the movie I think.

[Degolas]

I read about this, it's got quite a cult following I think. It's supposed to be ridiculously stupid, hence keeping the title 'Snakes on a Plane.' I think it sounds like a great idea!

[Dade]

I read an article about this in Wired a coule months back.

It sounds fucking hilarious, totally up your alley, Davey.

[Dave]

Oh I'll so see it. But I want really bad CGI effects damn it! I want the snakes to like, shoot out of people's mouths a la Thing Below and have it look like it was drawn in! :P

[John]

Samuel L Jackson actually said he never read the script before accepting - he just loved the title that much.

[Revchu]

What the shit is up with the acronym. I hope to hell they don't market this as 'S.O.A.P.' They need to use Snakes on a Plane, or else it's a pointless title.

I love Samuel L. Jackson, even if he's in a terrible movie, he's always the best part. He's right, it sounds hilarious, and I'll see it for sure. And damnit, they better make a damn good DVD of it, because ghetto DVDs of ghetto movies mean no money from me.

[Nemmet]

I predict this to be the biggest crapfest of the year. You can't really expect much more from the guy that directed Final Desination 2 and Cellular.

[Revchu]

Even bigger crapfest than Ultraviolet? It doesn't sound like it! As much as I love Milla, that was one of the poorest looking trailers I've seen since Joy Ride. It's built up a 4% rating so far on Rotten Tomatoes, those are big shoes to fill.

Plus, Final Destination 2 is equally regarded as Final Destination 1 and 3, both directed by James Wong. And he directed The One, and Willard. And those were both much worse movies than all three Final Destinations, and especially Cellular, which the Onion AV Club named one of the most underrated movies in 2004. I'm sure if James Wong was responsible, it'd end up worse.

Plus, I find it really funny that David R. Ellis is a former stuntman, he had aspirations to direct, and he was handed two money-making franchises. Laughs all around.

SNAKES ON A MOTHERFUCKING TRAILER

/robbed that from Fark :P

The CGI looks positively awful. <3 I can't wait for this movie.

[Dade]

Awesome.

[D-Rider]

...Did I just see Samuel L. Jackson whip someone with a snake?

This is clearly gonna surpass Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla as my favorite shitty film. :P

[Lyonaz]

Totally gonna see this movie in the theatres, just so I could have a movieticket that says Snakes On A Plane!

[Revchu]

Just an FYI about the trailer, it's not the actual official teaser. This is taken from snakesonablog.com:

UPDATE (3/17/06 at 5:08pm) — I’ve gotten more than one phone call today from people at New Line asking me to clarify that this trailer is not the official teaser trailer for the film, it was put online merely for the songwriting contest at Tagworld.  The CG is not representative of how the snakes will look in the final cut.   The OFFICIAL official teaser trailer will apparently be coming out in about a month.  I’ll be out of town for the remainder of the weekend, so updates will be sparse.
