Though I really could give a frog’s fat one how close my opinions run with others I respect, I nearly let out a girlie squeal when Thomas sent me a link to Joss’ comments on the show uncovered by the fine folks at WHEDONesque. He said:
Joss Whedon said…
I just have to say I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who found a kind of spiritual transcendence in the title “Snakes on a Plane”. It gives me faith in this bleak Hollyworld that there should be such simple beauty, such direct and uncluttered understanding of the human condition. Snakes, as the great philosophers used to say, on a motherfucking plane.
August 18th cannot come soon enough. I have complete Messiastic expectations which will not be unmet. Yea and Lo unto thee
And Lo, The maker of Firefly looked upon the title and said it was good. And to his followers he said, “Lo, Go Forth, my children, and partake in this cinema offering. Snakes on a Motherfucking Plane.”
And it was cool.
Snakes on the Motherfuckin Serenity!
Thought you’d enjoy Evo.
This could be the start of something! Truth in Film Titles!
Hollywood starts putting out films called…
“Piece O’ Shit Jennifer Aniston Vehicle”
“Sci-fi Movie: All FX No Story”
and
“Sequel to Pretty Cool Superhero Movie Which Totally Sucks Because It was Made By A Hack Director With Ne Talent”
That could be cool.
Chears
Someone didn’t enjoy Batman Forever.
Don’t even get me started on “The Worst movie in the World (next to Battlefield Earth) that had a Bat-suit with nipples by previous said Hack Director With No Talent” (B & R)
Booya!
Damn, someone spoiled my ‘Snakes on a Firefly’ idea!
That was the subject line of the email to Evo actually.
Oh, damn. I just realized, that is the same weekend I’ll be in Indiana as a groomsman in a wedding. Son of a bitch!
