I’ve already renewed my contract with Opera for the summer and beyond, but I though it was pretty neat. However, I am not the first to discover this little easter egg…

Motherfucking snakes on a motherfucking plane

Yes, today I went to see Snakes on a Plane with a bunch of friends. I mostly missed out on the online hype that has been going on, but somehow though it would be a good idea to see it. I laughed a lot, because it was so bizarre… Samuel L. Jackson’s line “I have had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane!” was apparently added after shooting first finished to please online fans, but it felt completely misplaced and didn’t really work.

In short, it makes no sense… the WTF factor is quite high and makes it almost enjoyable, but really… I’m not going to make a list of how it doesn’t make sense, I don’t doubt others have got that covered. The title is pretty awesome, so expect even worse movies parodying this movie in a year or two.
