    Yeah, I'd heard about this.

    Get this, Jackson was involved inthis project from the start. The studio wanted to change the title to some ridiculous cliche like "Flight 82" or "Panic in the Air", but Jackson forced them to change it back to the non-cliche, but equally ridiculous "Snakes on a Plane" or he would withdraw.

    And I hear it's not even a comedy. Or rather not an intentional comedy.

    How could someone possibly avoid going to see this one opening weekend?!

    As long as he says, "Where's my stick, it's the one that says, 'Bad Mother F***er on it'" at some point in the movie, I'm as good as there.
    I dont think I'm using that webcam right...

    Someone MUST pull a snake out of their shirt like in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, or I will be sad. Completely distraught, in fact.

    - I don't like small birds. They hop around so merrily outside my window, looking so innocent. but I know that secretly, they're watching my every move and plotting to beat me over the head with a large steel pipe and take my shoe

    one character i played has somehow just gotten a large amount of cocaine, and had gone into the woods with friends to get her fix (.........yeah, i don't know.) and then the snake got me.


    the other character i played ended up in the woods about to screw around with a guy, and then both of them died.

    upon further consideration, the bad wig was in a DIFFERENT slasher fic we made, and i was killed with a weed wacker when i was wearing the bad wig.


    the bad wig was, i think, also on my head when i played ghengis kahn's mother, but was not on when i played ghengis kahn's wife.

    i was 12, hanging out in the woods with two of my best friends, both of whom were gay, and pretty much knew it at the time, and they didn't tell each other until they were about 17, because each was afraid the other wouldn't be friends with them anymore.


    there were a lot of BAD movies made, and i was just about the only female in any of the movies, so i got reused in all of them.

    This simply begs for a filthy joke.

    How did they persuade the snake to wear a wig? ( And why, but that's another question. )

    Pssst! The shift key is usually on the left side of your keyboard. It often has a little up-pointing arrow on it, along with the word 'Shift'...

    Oh, wait, I see that you know where it is. So why do you use it when you don't really need it, and not when you do?
