Stains On A Plate

My friends Sue and Joe are going to see the premiere of Snakes On A Plane on Thursday night. I’ve been looking forward to it also, though I don’t know if I’ll be crazy (or awake) enough to see a first showing. The Hype Machine has certainly kicked into overtime on this one. G4’s Attack of the Show had “Snakes On A Plane Week” last week, which even involved filling the studio with hundreds of live snakes, nicely unnerving the hosts (go to here and view the “Snakes on a Television Host” video from 8/10 – unfortunately they cut off the part at the end when she says “There’s a snake up my ass – for real”).
One thing I’ve been wondering is: What will they do for the inevitable sequel? There’s already a Snakes On A Train (direct to DVD), so I doubt they’ll go that route. My vote is for Spiders On A Plane, which would be even more anxiety-inducing to me than the snakes. Especially since I’ve killed several million of the creepy crawlies the last couple of days inside my house (along with some beetle-like thing that crunched when I killed it, and one really lost ant).
I still intend to continue with the Interesting Summer Distractions, but haven’t had much time lately…
Latre.

Sounds like a perfect tie-in with the 9/11 movie would be “Planes on a Snake” – anti-reptile extremists hijack American jetliners in a plot to crash them onto… well, the script just writes itself!

I’m more interested in how the Porn communtiy is going to respond to the hoopla.
“Trouser Snakes on a Plane”? “Snakes in a Jane”?
Can you imagine the meetings going on as we speak?

I think the following bit of dialogue should definitely be uttered at some point by the Samuel L. Jackson surrogate: “Mothafuckah have to be really careful with the mothafuckin elastic band or you could end up mothafuckin’ slapping something that mothafuckin’ shouldn’t be slapped.”

I mean, of course, in the hypothetical porn version. (Oh: and so now there’s a “Porn community”? Is that anything like a “golf community”? “Cumshot Heights: A Porn Community”)

I think the “community” is called “San Fernando Valley”.
