I'm not sure if everyone has heard about the new movie, SNAKES ON A PLANE with Samuel L. Jackson.
The name really threw me off, so I decided to come up with new ones.
Airbus Asp
Flying Cobra
Boeing Boa

What are your thoughts on the movie, and any new names for this odd-named one?

Supposedly Samuel L. Jackson agreed to do the moved based on the name alone. It's pretty catchy.

Can't wait to see it. The title is what makes it so popular.

Why should Samuel Jacksons face be etched out of the side of a mountain for other so called actors to worship and feel inferior ? This is why:

I am guaranteeing that Snakes on a Plane will win best movie next year. Does not matter what else is coming out. The New James Bond... no snakes in that! Ocean's 13... where my snakes at? Shrek the Third... green, but not a snake. No movie shall triumph over Snakes on a Plane. Unless I happen to feel like making a movie called Mo' Motha-{loving} Snakes on Mo' Motha-{loving}' Planes."
I've started using the phrase instead of the usual quasi swearing phrases.

"Snakes on a plane man! I've told you five times, I'm mute!"

Why wouldn't you go see this? It's about snakes on a PLANE. Huzzah for the Hollywood movie naming process.

Damn, beaten to the joke by IA, again.

Could be a great franchise. "Spiders on a Submarine" should be next, and Steven Segal will surely cash in with "Squirrels on a Bus that can't stop or open the doors for some perfunctorily explained reason"

I'll watch it if there are Japanese girls who get snakes coiled all over them. They must be Japanese because they do the best acting when they're in that kind of situation.

It was a genius move to name the movie "Snakes on a Plane." The title of the movie is the reason people are so excited. They could make the movie a 5-minute claymation clip and they would still reap huge profits because of the name. Heck, people will still go see it even if everyone trashes the movie after opening weekend.

I'd seriously like to go see it when it comes out, but I can't convince any of my friends to go with me. :P I'm not going by myself. And like whyidie said, I'm doubtful that it will be laughably bad enough to enjoy. I think the worst thing for the movie's legacy would be for it to turn out simply mediocre. I think it needs to be either a fairly good movie in its own right or a really awful one. Either way, it needs to take itself very seriously, in my opinion, for best effect. I'd be really disappointed if it presented itself as some kind of comedic action film. There's already going to be enough humor surrounding its release; if the tone of the actual movie is too flippant, I think many people would feel "cheated" by the directors' not attempting to make a "real" movie. I don't know, maybe that's just me.

I'm going to see the movie just so I can hear Samuel L. Jackson say "There's motherluvin' snakes on this motherluvin' plane! Motherlovin snakes motherluva!" Edit: After that, I'll probably walk out and get my money back.

I remember seeing a really really bad non-Disney animated movie about a rooster who went to the big city to get a rock and roll star. While it wasnt named it, I think Roosters In A City would be much more suitable for that garbage.

Rats in a mental home
and
Cockroaches in a village
