Snakes on a Plane

xelda Dec 22, 2005 03:45 PM

Have any of you heard about this new movie that's coming out? It stars Samuel Jackson, and the title pretty much says what the movie's going to be about. In order to kill a crime witness, some criminals release about 300 snakes on a plane during a flight to L.A.

Here's a still shot. Honestly, I can't decide if it would be a hilarious or horrible date movie.

"Anaconda" was a good movie.... "Anaconda 2" was alright. The movie "King Cobra" was ok... But the other 5,000 movies suck. lol.

Is that a FL king. Watch, it's going to bite him and eat him.

terrified of any kind of snake. Today i watched a pay-for-view special about the famous wrestler Jake"the snake"Roberts and it was hilarious seeing him scare the living poop out of Andre the giant. He also let about a 9 or 10 ft king cobra chew on Macho Man Randy Savage's arm, the cobra was obviously a venomiod.
It was a neat program.

This movie sounds like another flop but that does sound like my kind of flight.. Too bad none of us were on that plane with a carry on full of empty pillow cases!! The only time i ever lucked out like that was about 10 years ago when a friend called to tell me there was a big red snake in his yard. i went over and found an adult female sinaloen milk that must have escaped from someone..

I know a guy who back when he was in high school got together with a buddy figuring that they'd catch a bag full of snakes and leave it in a locker at the buddy's high school. They figured that it would be a great joke when some unsuspecting student opened his or her locker and found a bag of snakes. For some reason, the buddy decided that he'd be the lookout, and my friend would go into the school and leave the bag in a random locker. My friend didn't know anyone and just picked a locker.

By the funniest of coincidences, he picked the locker of the kid at the school who was an enthusiastic herpetoculturist. The kid didn't jump and wasn't the least bit startled to find a bag of snakes in his locker. He was perplexed about whether they were a gift or whether he was just supposed to identify them for someone.

It's not how many snakes you have. It's how happy and healthy you can keep them.

I used to fly a lot. Back in the early 80's I started taking snakes in my carry on luggage, After 5 or 6 snakes passed the x-ray test I would always add more snakes . The people working the video were always looking for guns and explosives. It never occured to them to look for snakes. Anyway I started carring more and more. After doing this for several years I decided to try and put as many snakes into my carry on's as possible. They used to allow for 2 carry on luggage bags so I would frequently travel with several hundred babies packed in socks and a couple smelly t-shirts thrown in. I never really told anyone since it was my business and most people would have a hard time understanding it. I had few close calls. Once when I went to a show in Tampa around '98 they wanted to arbitrarly search my bags as I was leaving. But I acted like I was in a hurry so they decided to search my person instead (whew). Little did they know what was waiting for them in my bags. Otherwise I never had a problem even though I went waaaayyy overboard on the amount of snakes. I figured if I could get a way with a few then whats difference is a few hundred. This was went on all the way up to 911. I have not carried a snake on board since.

Geez, I just got back from vacation and the whole family watched some lame show where they crossed Ophiophagus hannah with Crotalus adamanteus and came out with a 30 foot hemo/neuro toxic snake and Pat Morita (Karate Kid) was the herpetologist! What a goof, he makes this giant snake hook and they end up crawling through a big tube and gassing the snake but don't end up killing it! LOL! Redneck extraveganza!
