The genius is in that title, a four word plot summation guaranteed to send a shiver of delight down any B-movie afficionado's spine. Snakes. On a Plane. For the record, Samuel L Jackson is a world-weary FBI agent charged with escorting a murder witness to Los Angeles.

Snakes on a Plane : Best bad movie of the year.

I have to say, I've been looking forward to this movie for months, so I may be a little biased. I won't even get into the various office pools I've started with regards to how well it will do at the Box Office. Or that I own a SoaP wristband and t-shirt.

See the poster for the forthcoming 'Snakes on a Plane,' starring Samuel L. Jackson, of course. First comment from Will: "This looks more like a poster for an interpretive Dance film. Why are there no snakes in this poster?"

A new theatrical trailer for the upcoming movie, this one a bit more "Hollywood-ized" than the last, which relied mostly on camp value. Still, pay close attention to the narrator's words. It's obvious they're still having fun with the campy premise.
