Today's the Day: Snakes on a Plane

The moment we've all anticipated is upon us. It's like Christmas, but with snakes instead of stockings. And also, snakes instead of presents. And instead of a warm fire glowing in the hearth, a plane. With snakes in it.

George sends this newish trailer of the movie. A lot of the snakes are CGI. I guess that makes sense, but why do they have to CGI up everything?

Retired Geezer sends this. The viral marketing machine is unstoppable.

From the Urban Dictionary, the, uhh, "definition" of "snakes on a plane," with an example of the expression's use in context.

snakes on a plane
A simple existential observation that has the same meaning as "Whaddya gonna do?" or "Shit Happens". Taken from the upcoming Samuel L. Jackson movie of the same name, and immortilised by screenwriter Josh Friedman on his blog post of Wednesday, August 17, 2005.

Guy 1: (irate) Dude, you just ran into the back of my SUV!

Guy 2: (calm) Snakes on a plane man. Snakes on a plane.

Heh.
