S.O.A.P. 2

OH MY F'ING GOD…

From this month's Premiere Magazine:
Green Snakes and Sam (Jackson)
The incorrigible Samuel L. Jackson on Freedomland and why he wouldn't do Snakes on a Plane unless it was called Snakes on a Plane!

Sam says:
When I picked up the script and I saw the title, I didn't even read it and I said, "I want to do it." You know, before I opened the first page, Snakes on a Plane. If this is what I think it is, I want to be in this. I want to be on a plane full of poisonous snakes. And I want to see other people on a plane full of poisonous snakes. You say Snakes on a Plane, people who don't like snakes are intrigued. The people who don't like to fly are intrigued. The people who don't like both are totally terrified now. People who just like seeing mayhem are ready for that. They want to see, you know, people enclosed in a big tin tube getting attacked by poisonous snakes. Come on! What could be more exciting than that, you know? What do you do? What do you do until the plane lands? Come on, Snakes on a Plane, that's the title.
I concede defeat. Meme/Snakes: 1, Rational Thought Processes: 0.
