That's a pretty obvious name given what the movie's about. Kind of like "Priates on a Ship" instead of "Priates of the Carribean."

Well....I pretty much think that EVERYBODY thinks that "Snakes on a Plane" is a dumb title for a movie. I don't mean normal-dumb, but, like, "Mars Needs Women"-dumb. Now, the real question is: how horribly badly is this movie going to suck??? I mean, Speed looked dumb because it was about a bomb on an LA city bus, but it actually turned out to be a fairly huge summer blockbuster because that movie MOVED from the first 30 seconds until the last 30 seconds.
Snakes on a Plane is about...snakes on a plane...and Samuel L. Jackson in his usual foul mood. It's...just...gotta...suck...

When I first heard the title I thought it was a joke. At least someone agrees it's a horrible title for a serious movie. It's too obvious.

The title of the movie is meant to be dumb. They have made the film with the intention that it is to be a cult classic and not a blockbuster. Will it meet up with expectations? Only time will tell.

Maybe they are going for the obvious to say, hey, it's not about an Anaconda or a Boa or a Viper or any particular species. We won't be expecting something else.

Oh yeah, I saw that. It sucks! At least Anaconda got viewers to watch, and then they found out how lame it was, but Snakes on a Plane? It's hilarious

I think that's the idea -- they're marketing it as a cheesy, over-the-top action flick so people don't think they're being serious.

Here's what it says on the wiki page:
Though officially designated as action/horror, there has been speculation that the film is actually intended to be a dark, absurdist, or surreal comedy, such as the cult film Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

What a dumb name. Couldn't they have spent 5 minutes thinking up a better name? Or spent a few dollars hiring a creative person to think one up for them?
