That actually works, but isn’t Snakes on a Plane a better allegory for September 11th?

Yeah, it is. The idea that it has to do with WWII is the height of delusion.

I’m not sure if the movie would be better if they’re completely serious or if they’re all just shitting us. Either way it’ll be the best movie ever created by anyone ever.

…So?

I’m fairly excited about Snakes on a Plane, but I swear - I SWEAR - if any character, and that includes The Man Samuel L. Jackson, utters “Let’s Roll” then I’m walking out of the theater.

Good God. I fucking posted in that thread.

“Sam Jackson represents the isolationist America. In the beginning of the film he won’t be a loud mouth, he won’t make conversation with the people around him, he’ll sit in his seat like a sleeping giant. But when those snakes attack”…

I think that maybe the passengers on the plane and Samuel L. Jackson’s character represent our new found post 9-11, reluctant-to-protest America and the snakes represent the breaches being made on our civil liberties by way of wire tapping, etc. The mafia members that released the snakes represent our current government which wants to eliminate any sort of dissidence, represented by the witness.

The movie is about snakes. Snakes on a plane. Lets not go ruin the fun and frivolity of it all by overanalysing things in so much detail! There’ll be snakes! There’s be chaos! There’ll be wacky flying-above-earth hijinks! Pure, brain-rotting fun.

This is a lame analogy for the BEST MOVIE EVER MADE. First off, Kamakazie was the term used for that aviation tatic in WWII, becuase it refered to when the Japanese Imperial Army of ancient times was save a bunch of times by a devine wind that swept the enemy away (and killed them) - this devine wind became a symbol of a last stand, a desperate attempt for salvation. In WWII the Japanese forces decided they needed another devine wind to save the day - this was their kamakazie aviators.

Secondly, a plane is already a weapon, snakes or no snakes (that whole 9/11 business) - just like anything is a weapon. You could kill someone with a telephone if you wanted. ANYTHING.

so basically this movie is awesome and this analogy is some lamo-pseudo-intelegent bullshit of someone wanting to look cool.

No, I think Samuel L. Jackson represents Jesus Christ and the snakes are the Devil and the plane is the world coming to an end, No that’s not it. The snake represents the protons of an atom and Jackson an electron, wait, No I mean the plane is George Bush and Jackson is Dick Cheney and the snakes are weapons of mass destuction, oh no, wait, IT IS JUST A FUN ACTION MOVIE WITH SNAKES. Just enjoy it.

Wait…it’s all becoming clear…

…see, the plane represents SNAKES, right? And the snakes represent PLANES, which are always running all over the snakes. The Mafia represents the Snakes on a Plane cast and crew, who have a tendency to complicate the original order of things by forcibly combining the two in unnatural ways, and the humans represent humans, who get to reap the benefits when hilarity ensues.
It’s a metaphor within an allegory covered in a thick, creamy layer of morality play.

Isn’t the movie obviously “about” an overly simple minded and violent solution to a ridiculous and fabricated situation? As such, isn’t it like our current geo-political situation? Where would we be without the Air Marshalls to protect us from snakes on a plane? Where’s my parachute…

it looks like possibly the dumbet movie of all time. but it does have the greatest title of all time. so thats something. i’ll be going drunk.

You have to see my new movie!!! Its the greatest movie of all time. I ain’t yelling either, thats just how I talk!!!
