The original Snakes on a Plane came in 1981, and it was called Raiders of the Lost Ark. Indy flees from the spear-hurling natives after stealing the golden idol, jumps into the seat of the prop plane, looks down to see the pilot's pet slithering by his feet, and screams, "Snakes! I hate snakes!"
When one has cast Samuel L. Jackson, one is obligated to include "mother fucking" in the dialog, but the sentiment is otherwise pretty much the same.

That would have been vastly more appropriate months ago. I may as well as start actively priding myself on how untimely I prove to be in most areas.
I rather enjoyed Snakes on a Plane. I especially enjoyed that you have to wait the entire movie for one expletive to be uttered, and then, when you've been waiting...waiting...waiting for it, SLJ drops the F-bomb. Very effective.
