"Snakes on a Plane" Already a Hit!

Damn those pesky snakes on this plane!

Variety reported today that despite the fact that New Line has not done any publicity on Sam Jackson thriller "Snakes on a Plane" (filmed partly in Hawaii), buzz around the film has already grown to epic proportions. The film, slated for an August 2006 release, has inspired merchandise, songs, and even a secondary meaning for its title: "it could be worse."

Betcha the suits at New Line are thanking their lucky stars they didn't go with "Pacific Air Flight 121"...snore! What's in a name? Big box office!
