So, I was worried that Snakes on a Plane wouldn't live up to the hype, but it was great!
It was probably at least partly because of the incredibly raucous crowd -- complete with guys in costumes and rubber snakes flying through the air.
It was kind of like a porno: The set-up was a little slow and boring, the plot's kind of thin, but once the first nipple appears, it's non-stop action.
Unfortunately, no. They're attached to some nubile young thing having mile-high sex in the bathroom. It's a brief nudity scene in the great tradition of trashy rated-R thrillers. She and her boy are the first to go.
My kids saw the midnight premiere. Apparently the audience was breaking out in cheers and applause. No plot details, but be assured that it delivers what the title promises.
Ahhh... gotcha.
Mine was but one of several cameras in the theater. And with all the noise and flying rubber snakes, there's no way I could sell a bootleg -- unless someone was looking for the Audience Participation Edition.
