25 January 2007

HOLLYWOOD, California -- The Samuel L. Jackson movie and meme, Snakes on a Plane, was nowhere in sight Tuesday when the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced their 2007 Oscar nominees. They didn't even get a nod for the movie's theme song, "Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)" by Cobra Starship. Fans of the movie are now in an uproar over the snub. Says Joseph Schmo of Norman, Oklahoma, "What's the deal here? Snakes on a Plane is obviously the greatest movie of all time, and yet nobody recognizes it as such. They think it's just a fad, but we will show them a thing or two."

Click on the link to read the whole story. Of course it's fake news, but if you're interested on a humorous take on the recent Oscar nominations, here you go. And check out that picture of "Samuel L. Jackson."  ::) ;D WARNING: the full article does include Samuel L. Jackson's now-famous profanity, just so you know.

That is a big disappointment for me. It was one of the better films out last year.

And yes, I'm serious when I say that! ;D

Original script, snakes in a confined place murdering people, and Samuel L. Jackson as the bad ass superhero. Hell yeah!

I did not see the movie, and have no intention of ever seeing it.

It is however a classic "Cult Movie".  Revised at least 4 times, rejected over 30 times, by every large and small studio in Hollywood.  It was really only after the casting of Sam Jackson that the movie ever went anywhere.  It may be a good movie, but it is probably not "Oscar Calibur".  Unless they make a category for "Cult Film Of The Year".

Then some of my past "Favorite Films" can finally get the attention they deserve.  Like "Elephant Parts", "Timerider", "Heavy Metal", and "The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension".  I still scratch my head and wonder why none of them ever won the Oscar.  ::)

It should receive an Oscar just because it's original and not a sh*tty remake of an older movie.

Revised script, snakes in a confined place murdering people, and Samuel L. Jackson saying a couple of naughty words for an "R" rating!  f*bleep*k yeah!

I attended a midnight showing on opening night.  SoaP was the most mu*blip*kin' fun I've had in a muth*blorp*in' theater since the last time I saw the Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I agree Snakes On The Plane is a really cool film!

Buckaroo Bonazi, Doctor Detroit, I remember 'em all!

Buckaroo Bonazi is one of my favorite films!
