Snakes on a Sequel… For Real?
June 4th, 2006 at 10:03 pm

I received this email yesterday from somebody I’ve interacted with in the past. They may be putting me on, but I don’t think so. Here’s the gist of the email:

_______ works at a film production company in LA, and one of his jobs is to search the Motion Picture Association of America’s title registry for upcoming movies. He does it to see if upcoming movies will conflict with their current or pending titles. He came across the following upcoming titles that have been registered:

Snakes on a Boat
Snakes on a Train
Snakes on a Plane 2
More Snakes on a Plane
Snakes in Space

Looks like New Line is contemplating sequel(s). Looks like we may see more snakes everywhere.

More Snakes on a Plane… hmm… As unlikely as the current plot may be, it seems like the odds of someone sneaking snakes onto a plane more than once in one universe are extremely low. Therefore, it’s a good idea.

Snakes on a Sequel!

Comment by clifford — June 5, 2006 @ 12:42 am

The basic idea here seems simple: What can we put snakes on? You can keep it going as long as you can think of methods of transportation. You could even throw in something like a prison or other locked-down building. It’s a long list.

But how many actual plots can one come up with, that’s my question. Mutiple snake terrorists? Multiple Samuel L. Jacksons? What are the odds of him being on every one of those trips?

“Damn, I have REALLY had it with these snakes already!” :)

P.S. I’m still looking forward to a humorous Bruce Campbell version. I’d actually, literally, wet myself.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! More future snake cinema viewings!!!

[...] Snakes on a Blog have received an email which shows the possibility that a sequel to Snake on a Plane is in the works. [...]

Come on Snakes in Space!

Comment by Adam — June 5, 2006 @ 12:25 pm

If there is a sequel, it might not even by snakes.

It could be (Animal)s on a (vehicle). Starring Sammy J of course.

I have my hopes on Rabbits On A Bus featuring Christopher Walken as the bus driver.

Good lord - please - not b u n n i e s. SURELY you can see that snakes are scarey, but rabbits are not. Oh wait…..that’s another topic…..

Comment by mother — June 5, 2006 @ 1:28 pm

The image of snakes in zero G cracks me the hell up. Or snakes in little astronaut costumes. “Scotty!…I need…more power!” Too cute.

Comment by Ann — June 5, 2006 @ 1:32 pm

I think the snakes should make a movie called “Humans in a hibernaculum”

Comment by DCLugi — June 5, 2006 @ 2:49 pm

I’d pay to see that. Twice.

Starring Samel L. Jackssssson. “I’ve had it with these humans!”

Comment by Ann — June 5, 2006 @ 3:00 pm

The whole point is, Snakes have to be on some kind of moving transportation that people can’t just jump off of. You can jump off a train or a boat and live. But not a plane. That’s what makes it brilliant. That’s why Snakes in Space could work, or Snakes on a Sub even. I like Snakes in Space. That sounds awesome. It has to have Shatner in it, somehow!

Comment by Szin Dragon — June 5, 2006 @ 3:05 pm

Unless the boat was in shark-infested waters?

Wait, let’s combine two movies–Speed and Snakes on a Plane. The train (or it could be a bus) can’t go any slower than 50 mph or it’ll blow up. Meanwhile, it’s full of poisonous snakes. If you jumped off a 50+-mph train, I think that’d kill you. I certainly wouldn’t want to chance it. You have better odds by just arming yourself with a butter knife and defending in place, I’d think.

So train speeding out of control, deadly snakes, Samuel L. Jackson…it’s brilliant.

I think they already made Snakes on a Sub.

For the life of me, I can’t think why astronauts would bring cobras in space. Unless maybe we’d colonized the moon, and they were stocking the moon zoo?

Snakes in a Hot-Air Balloon? How long would that last?

Comment by Ann — June 5, 2006 @ 3:39 pm

Wait a second…I’ve got it, the train thing. The Chunnel, connecting England and France deep below the English Channel. You can’t just leave the train, I think.

Comment by Ann — June 5, 2006 @ 3:45 pm

Hmmm, I did a Whois search on a few of those domains and they’re all available. So either a) the emailer was kidding or b) it’s an excellent time to snatch up those domains and hold them hostage.

Comment by SJ — June 5, 2006 @ 5:35 pm

Isn’t domain squatting illegal?

Snakes on a Dirigible

Comment by Steve — June 5, 2006 @ 6:24 pm

I don’t want to be a wet blanket here, but…

am I the only one who thinks that any more than ONE movie is a poor idea? I dunno, it just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I wanted this movie to be unique, not an excuse for Hollywood to push it down our throats. The only reason this film will do well is because people think it’s silly.

“We”, the fans, should decide this, not let Hollywood make the decisions for us!

Comment by Signature #76 — June 5, 2006 @ 6:31 pm

Well, the sequel can never be as good or be celebrated in quite the same way. But heroes sometimes fight the same villains more than once in movies. Perhaps the terrorist in this one gets away, and he says (in a cackling, maniacal voice), “I’ll get you yet, Neville Flynn!” as he vanishes. Et voila–sequel.

My wife thought of the best possible sequel: Wasps on a Submarine.

Ughhghhgh.

Comment by Nispy — June 6, 2006 @ 2:56 pm

Dident somebody do a fan song snakes in space??

Comment by Eric — June 6, 2006 @ 10:20 pm

“Snakes in Space”

YES!

Comment by Shpoo — June 7, 2006 @ 12:36 am

When is the porno version coming out, and what will it be called.

Comment by Boutrous Boutrous Golly — June 7, 2006 @ 12:58 pm

Snakes on Lorraine

Comment by TM — June 7, 2006 @ 8:25 pm

I would so go see Snakes in Space.

“Houston, we have a problem.”

*hissssssss*

Comment by Snakes on a Snake — June 7, 2006 @ 11:23 pm

Snakes in Space has my vote. They’d be slithering in zero gravity. That would make for some intense action scenes.

Comment by Jim — June 8, 2006 @ 3:17 pm

“Snakes on Cocaine”…who wouldn’t want to see it? ;-)

Comment by evie — June 8, 2006 @ 10:37 pm

I’ve been jokingly doing this with my friends; we ty to challenge ourself by using alliteration:
Bears on a Boat!
Zebras on a Zipwire!
Snails on a Spaceship!
Hippos on a Hang-glider!
The list is endless. OH and after seeing the drowned alive stunt, i have david’s next stunt all lined up:
SNAKES ON A BLAINE

Comment by Matt Boehm — June 9, 2006 @ 7:34 am

Nah–”Snakes in Space” could work, but first we gotta do as Samuel L. says–

“Mo’ Mo’f*in’ Snakes on Mo’ Mo’f*in’ Planes”!!!!

Comment by Armitage112 — June 9, 2006 @ 12:31 pm

What about ‘Snakes on Crack’?

http://www.azcentral.com/offbeat/articles/0905jackson-CP.html

Apparently SLJ is up for Snakes on Crack. Sounds good to me.

Comment by Mike Coppola — September 10, 2006 @ 4:35 pm

Believe it or not, Snakes on a Train is an actual movie, It was made BEFORE snakes on a plane..

Comment by Janette — September 30, 2006 @ 8:48 pm

[...] In closing, DRM will probably be the biggest technology topic of 2007, as ordinary folks quickly start to realize that fast-talking, red Corvette-driving, Aqua Velva-drenched Hollywood types should keep their zircon-encrusted pinky rings off of computer hardware specifications, instead focusing their creative attention on much more important work: Snakes on a Plane 2. [...]

i think that snakes in space is highly impossible and that if they did a sequel it just doesn’t go along with the ending of the first one..and i think that they won’t even have a sequel anyways. but if they do it should be snakes on a plane again because its the only thing big enough that nobody can escape off of and thats what gives people a kick out of the movie because it is so funny!

Comment by courtney — January 13, 2007 @ 2:09 pm

Why anyone has thougt about a cross-over with Star Wars?

STAR WARS EP.VII: Snakes on a Muth***cking death Star

The script would start with the evil empire resurrecting Mace Windu to help them (betraying the light side) but he resurrect without the force and without his lightsaber skills, only one old fashioned -but really effective- laser pistol and his sweardwords to stop the way that the new republic is trying to destroy the newly created Death Star just because they’re tired of sending X-wings to do that job.

Did i mentioned that the Snakes could pierce the armor of the stormtroopers?
