The big deal on this movie is the hype it has been getting AND because of Samuel L. Jackson.
The film's title and premise generated a lot of pre-release interest on the Internet. Much of the initial publicity came from a blog entry made by screenwriter Josh Friedman, who had been offered a chance to work on the script[2]. The casting of popular actor Samuel L. Jackson further increased anticipation. At one point, the film's working title was altered to Pacific Air Flight 121. In August 2005, a perturbed Samuel L. Jackson told an interviewer, "We're totally changing that back. That's the only reason I took the job: I read the title."[3] In another interview in early 2006, Jackson claimed that once he learned about the movie title being changed he said: "What are you doing here? It's not Gone with the Wind. It's not On the Waterfront. It's Snakes on a Plane!"[4] On March 2, 2006, the studio reverted the title to Snakes on a Plane.
In recognition of the unprecedented Internet buzz for what had been a minor movie in their 2006 line-up, New Line Cinema ordered five days of additional shooting in early March 2006[5] (principal photography had wrapped in September 2005). While re-shoots normally imply problems with a film, the producers opted to add new scenes to the film to take the movie from PG-13 into R-rated territory and bring the movie in line with the growing fan expectation. Among the reported additions is a line that originated as an Internet parody of Samuel L. Jackson's traditional movie persona: "That's it! I have had it with these ************* snakes on this ************* plane!".
On June 3, 2006, Samuel L. Jackson said, while presenting the award for best movie at the MTV Movie Awards, "I'm here tonight to present the award everyone's been waiting for: best movie. This award holds a special place in my heart because next year I'll be winning it for Snakes on a Plane. Now I know, I know that sounds cocky, but I don't give a damn. I'm guaranteeing that Snakes on a Plane will win best movie next year. Does not matter what else is coming out. New James Bond... no snakes in that! Ocean's 13... where my snakes at? Shrek the Third... green, but not a snake. No movie shall triumph over Snakes on a Plane. Unless I happen to feel like making a movie called Mo' Motha-******' Snakes on Mo' Motha-******' Planes."

it's a kind of affordable airplanes that does not have the little t.v. monitor at the again of the man or woman in entrance of you's chair? i have been on a few the ones. nevertheless they were not any further than 6 hours so all i did was once stare out the window and go to sleep. however you must check out taking a well guide or an ipod. if in case you have a film mobilephone that might be best so long as you place it into flight mode so it does not intrude with any navigation signs. Buy a nintendo D.S. or one more sort of handheld recreation. Get a bop it with headphones so it does not annoy different individuals, they are lovely addictive. Just take as many exclusive types of leisure as you'll be able to so it does not get tedious. Remember you wont be conscious for the entire 17 hours. Have a exceptional flight! :-)

I heard them talking about it a long time ago on a radio station and the station was bashing it big time -- they must have seen previews. ALL I KNOW IS I love scary movies with Ghosts, etc. but I draw the line at snakes.

uh, not only does the title sound stupid, but ive seen a trailer...it looks stupid! and that is sad that your friend rates movies and is asking random people for input, she is supposed to be the one with the opinion to tell us how the movie is, then its up to us to disagree or agree with her. i dont ask her how to file papers with the court do i? dont mean to be rude, but she should do her own work, unless she is taking a poll of course, then its totally legit...and i wont go see this movie cause it looks retarded

I really wish that you guys and gals would stop using retarded as an adjective. It is just as bad as all the other stuff. All people have feelings, just like you.

My prediction is that it won't live up to the hype. How can it?
