The move we've all been waiting for
WHAT'S THE MUTHAFUCKIN' PITCH?
Read the muthafuckin' title!
WILL IT SUCK, MUTHAFUCKA?
Does it really matter? At this point, Snakes on a Plane could prove to be the worst film in history, and it would still live up to expectations. It is now more than a movie. It is a meme. I think the first one to really reach that status before release. Blair Witch came close, but not like this. It is also the first movie title, I believe, to become a zen koan.
Pedigree-wise, I think if director David R. Ellis' last film had been called Motherfuckin' Cell Phones in Motherfuckin' Cars instead of Cellular, it would have done better. And co-writer Sebastian Gutierrez's Gothika and The Big Bounce should bring just the right amount of suck to make this worthwhile.
And if it doesn't meet your expectations? Snakes on a plane.
HOW WELL WILL THAT MUTHAFUCKA DO, MUTHAFUCKA?
It's safe to say it has no competition. There is nothing else like it on the planet. Even if people think it will suck, they will probably still see it. In fact, I think more people will come expecting it to suck than not. That is the mystery of Snakes on a Plane. It also makes coming up with a figure next to impossible. What price irony? $53mil.
