"SNAKES ON A PLANE" A NEW CULTURAL PHENOMENON

There's a new Samuel L. Jackson movie coming out that is tentatively titled "Snakes On A Plane". It has developed a ridiculous cult following even before it's release. (I don't even know if it's been shot yet!) It's a big deal already for 2 reasons: 1) It's going to be so bad, that it's going to be awesome!! 2) It has the best movie title EVER!! In fact, Samuel Jackson only took the job because of the title! They were going to change the name but he insisted on Snakes On A Plane! You can read Samuel Jackson talking about it HERE. Also, a screenwriter who was asked to work on rewrites for the movie & fell in love with the title but ultimately turned it down has a hilarious blog telling his whole story HERE. (Forgive the language if that offends you, but if you know Samuel Jackson's movie characters, it makes perfect sense). There is also an entire blog devoted to the movie called "Snakes On A Blog". The general premise of the film, as I understand is: Samuel Jackson plays an FBI agent transporting a witness under protection, they are on an airplane & an assassin, trying to kill the witness- releases deadly snakes on the plane. That it. That's not the end of my story, though. I was on Urban Dictionary Dot Com doing some research about street slang for a TV piece I'm working on. Guess what I come across? "SNAKES ON A PLANE!!" It has an official "street" definition! Meaning: Somewhere between "cest la vie" & "whaddya gonna do?" You must check it out to fully understand...
So, in closing, I bowl on a Wednesday night company league. My teammates from work decided that our name must be "SNAKES ON A PLANE". So that is what we are called. I'll leave you with photos of the front & back of our official shirt.
