Zeev,
It has nothing to do with what the film makers' conscious intentions were.
Do you think that the 50's science fiction film makers meant to make 
movies
that reflected social anxiety about the atom bomb?  Of course not, but how 
in the

hell do you think those bugs got so big!

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, but in this case a snake is a lot more
than a cigar.

Hi all,
Actually, I'm thinking it might be kind of interesting as a broad metaphor 
for fears about terrorism and air travel.  And the latest aborted attack:  just 
their luck!  That stuttering ad is kind of dumb though.

Michael, Good Luck!  I don't think Hollywood execs are that deep.

Actually, when I first heard about a movie coming out, called Snakes on a
Plane, and knew NOTHING else about, I thought to myself 'wow what a great
and intriguing title,  like Trees Lounge, or Reservoir Dogs, I wonder what
this one is all about' ?
You can imagine how disappointed I was when I found out that IT IS actually
about ..snakes on a plane.

Deep, real deep.

Zeev

Both the NY Times and SLATE magazine, two on line 
rags I respect highly for certain things like movies and 
reporting on the end of the civilized world as we know it, 
both gave it rave reviews...Slate called it the best post 9/11 film 
yet and the points drawn out of the film made for interesting 
debate.
