TP - Title Plot
There are a rare few titles that can sum up an entire movie in one sentence - the "Title-Plot" movies (yes, we made it up or 'coined it' if you will) or "T.P." for short (I am aware of the other acronym which is quite appropriate for these types of movies).
"Snakes on a Plane" did just that. There is no underlying message, there is no subplot or subtext that you have to see the movie to understand. You just need the T.P.
Cheers to the people at New Line Cinema graphics department (thanks Sherry Wilchowski!) for giving BB a shout out on the "SOAP" poster; hidden in the scales of the snakes. Clever boys & girls there are New Line...

I don't like snakes and I don't like flying...why the hell would I like snakes on a plane?
Now if it were snacks on a plane, we could be in business!

SoaP isn't exactly my cup of tea, hell, going to the theater isn't exactly my cuppa, but I will be going to see the flick in a week or so once the initial mania dies down a bit.

The whole movie seems cockamamie to me. I'd rather crash than have to deal with those, those, things. And I used to have a pet snake.

Ok... you're the 2nd person in blogger that seems to be fascinated with this movie. I really gotta go catch it when it gets released (if it ever reaches our shore, that is) although the radio says - B Grade film... hmm...

The movie is so bad...it's good.
Like "Plan 9 From Outta Space", a bad B-Movie that just has to be seen

I loved Snakes on a plane..it was really bad but fun cinema..the audience participation was amazing...cheering, laughing, hissing..I heard that it has been a universal phenomenon everwhere.

for some strange reason I have a very strong desire to see this movie... but then again, I am fond of all things cheesy and I am sure this will fit the bill!

This is the symbol of medecine in France.
