Best Movie Title Ever!

Every now and then, Hollywood comes up with something that is pure fricken' genius. Coming out on 18 August is the movie with the best title ever, period. It is:

Snakes On A Plane

Absolutely brilliant. It's got it all right there. No one will be asking: "That Snakes On A Plane movie, what's it all about?" There are snakes. And there is a plane. The snakes will be on the plane. Chaos will ensue. I heard an interview with the movie's star, Samuel L. Jackson and he said as much, pointing out in particular the double whammy to people afraid of both snakes and planes.

I may never see the film, but if I decide to, I know exactly what I'll be about to witness. Deadly (I assume, the title makes no mention of it) snakes on a plane. Some people will be bitten and some snakes will be beaten. Genius.

My favourite line from the trailer: "Enough is enough. I've had it with the snakes." Here's betting we never see this classic in-flight.

Story goes that they were gonna change the title and Jackson said he'd pull out if they changed it.

There are 'snakes on a plane' t-shirts all over the net now. When, ever, did a movie have this much buzz for no reason?

Snakes on a muthafuckin' PLANE, baby!
