Snakes. On. A. Plane.
I love it.
I love the fact that the hype is somewhat contained. Many people just didn't hear about it until the week it came out. The rest of us have eagerly anticipating the movie.
My friends and I pinned toy snakes to our shirts and proudly marched in to see the movie on opening day.
There's something strangely awesome about a movie so blunt, so pointless. The title had no metaphors, no symbolism. What you see is what you get. And what you get is motherf'n snakes. And it was enjoyable.
Almost zero plot, some rather silly violence, and most of the characters were unimportant except as snake fodder. But it was entertaining.
The snake in the microwave rocked. However! If I'm correct, the snake I saw was a harmless milk snake, obviously intended to represent the poisonous coral snake. But remember, children,
"Red touches black,
Friend of Jack.
Red touches yellow,
Kill a fellow."
Milk snake go boom.
I really like this revision of the famous line.

Our homecoming theme this year is movies, and my friends and I are trying to get Snakes on a Plane to be our homeroom's float theme. The unoriginal preps in our class want to do a football movie theme. WHAT'S THE FUN IN THAT??? The theme is already football. Why MORE football?! Let's incorporate football into more football! YAY! Double football!
Not.
Snakes on a Plane ftw.
