...A classic in the vein of Casablanca, Ben-Hur, Sparticus, Braveheart, the Godfather, the Shawshank Redemption...

...Killjoy, Manos, Robot vs. the Aztec Mummy, The Slime People, Moon Zero Two...

Once I saw Samuel Jackson in xXx, I knew he would do any movie, no matter how bad.


He now sits in a lounge with Gene Hackman and Michael Caine, sifting through a pile of scripts, most of which should never get made... :eek:

After Samuel L got eaten in the first act of Deep Blue and Steven Segal bought it in the first ten minutes of that awful movie, the name of which I thankfully forget (also on a plane, but with less dangerous wildlife), I'd love to see a movie where a whole cast of big name action stars get killed off leaving an unknown actor to save the day. ;)

Try "True Romance"

Also, from what I read, the writers wanted to change the name of the title from "Snakes on a Plane" to Pacific Air 121. But Samuel L Jackson refuses to be associated with it if it's not "Snakes on a Plane." I can't find the article again, but he was quoted to say something about how "Snakes on a Plane" captures the essence of the movie, and he won't do it if that's not the title.

EDIT: Found it. http://www.defamer.com/hollywood/samuel-l-jackson/dudesnakes-on-a-plane-117687.php

Beaks: One of those films that you’re working on right now is… well, it’s called Pacific Air 121—
Jackson: Snakes on a Plane, man!
Beaks: Exactly.
Jackson: We’re totally changing that back. That’s the only reason I took the job: I read the title.
Beaks: Snakes on a Plane! That’s everything!
Jackson: You either want to see that, or you don’t.
Beaks: And how are those snakes? Besides being on a plane?
Jackson: Some of them are aggressive, some of them are cool. They’re interesting to watch, and interesting to interact with. It depends on what kind of snake it is. One day, it took, like, four guys to bring in this 350 lb. Burmese Python. We were all like, “Where’s that goin’?” And I watched an Albino Cobra strike airplane seats the other day. I watched it from another studio. It’s actually been a fun show. But we’re taking the name back!

Hopefully, this spawns a series of sequels. Like Bears on a Train, Spiders on a Bus and Hyenas on a Cable Car.

Demiurge out.
Can't.... stop.... laughing.... :lol:

Oh, Sam Jackson, how the mighty have fallen.
