Snakes On A Plane: Now With REAL Snakes!
As the buzz around the ridiculously-named Snakes On A Plane continues to build to a deafening roar, it seems more details are coming out about the reshoots that happened recently that were intended to knock the film up from a PG-13 to an R rating. Apparently a lot of people were complaining about the fact that the many of the snakes clearly looked fake in the trailer (go figure), so director David R. Ellis confirmed that over 500 real snakes were used on set (non-venomous, of course). More importantly, Ellis also informs us that in addition to making the movie more violent, the reshoots will be adding a little bit of nudity in the form of a couple trying to join the mile-high club. Does this mean they’re adding a real trouser snake too?

Posted by Chopper on April 12th, 2006Also in Rollingstone this month there is a small story about a fake trailer that was made for this movie with a Samuel Jackson impersonator saying “Get these muthafuckin snakes off the muthatfuckin plane!” Aparently Jackson liked it so much when he saw it that they actually went back to filming to put that line in the movie. Frankly I can’t believe it wasn’t in the film already.
