- The film is notable for building up a considerable internet fanbase, who were lead to believe it was a high-concept action thriller, literally depicting snakes... on a plane.

- The 2006 "Psychological Thriller" Snakes on a Plane does pretty much Exactly What It Says on the Tin. A witness to a murder of a prosecutor gets hunted by Asian Hawaiian gangsters, so the FBI puts him under the escort of agent Neville Flynn (Samuel L. Jackson) as he flies from Hawaii to California to testify. The gangsters come up with an unusual method of trying to bring the plane down: they unleash snakes on the plane during the flight to try and bring it down before it gets to California. Lots of people die, sacrifices get made to save lives, and Flynn kicks reptilian ass.
- Snakes on a Plane is a high concept horror-thriller feature film starring Samuel L. Jackson. It was released by New Line Cinema on August 18, 2006 in North America. The David R. Ellis-helmed film was created by David Dalessandro and written by Dalessandro, John Heffernan, and Sheldon Turner. The film has been rated R by the MPAA, 15 by the BBFC and 14A by the CHVRS, due to its content of coarse language, a scene of sexuality and drug use, and intense sequences of terror and violence.
- Snakes on a Plane is a movie starring Samuel L. Jackson set for release on August 18, 2006. It is literally about snakes being on a plane during a flight from Hawaii to Los Angeles. It was announced in 2005. After the announcement of the movie, the movie quickly became a fad on Board 8, GameFAQs, and many other websites, due to its uncreative title (and because a star like Jackson was starring in such a doomed film). There are many references to the movie, as well as a message board relating to the fad.

- The 2006 "Psychological Thriller" Snakes on a Plane does pretty much Exactly What It Says on the Tin. A witness to a murder of a prosecutor gets hunted by Asian Hawaiian gangsters, so the FBI puts him under the escort of agent Neville Flynn (Samuel L.

The gangsters come up with an unusual method of trying to bring the plane down: they unleash snakes on the plane during the flight to try and bring it down before it gets to California. Lots of people die, sacrifices get made to save lives, and Flynn kicks reptilian ass. The movie turned out exactly as ludicrous as the premise and title sound, and it reveled in its So Bad It's Good-ness, with cheesy glowing effects, Gory Discretion Shots, and tons of snakes. When the studio wanted to give it a serious title (Pacific Air Flight 121) and turn it into a more serious horror/action film, Jackson threatened to quit the project altogether. When the absurd title gained popularity with Internet nerds and became a huge online meme, the studio turned the film into a dark-comedy horror/action film, refilmed several scenes to add new lines (including the now-infamous page-topping quote), and had the rating changed from PG-13 to R to accomodate the newfound audience. While the nerd-hype failed to translate into large-scale box office success, Snakes on a Plane did ultimately make a profit. In 2010, an actual plane crashed in the Congo due to a panic caused by an escaped crocodile. How many passengers survived? One (plus the crocodile, which an emergency response unit promptly slaughtered with machetes after arriving at the scene). In 2012, it happened for real, though only one snake showed up.

There are many references to the movie, as well as a message board relating to the fad. Surprisingly, the film's creators embraced this cult following wholeheartedly, even going so far as to shoot extra scenes, including the above line which was created by fans as a parody of Jackson's usual movie persona, and the film turned out to be actually very good, and an example of pure entertainment. There was no attempt at a deep plot, nothing made to please the critics, they just gave the fans exactly what they wanted- a load of mother****ing snakes on a mother****ing plane. Still pretty much bombed at the box office though. Probably got beaten by Generic Gross-Out Comedy #673 or something. Some people have no taste.

- Snakes on a Plane is a high concept horror-thriller feature film starring Samuel L. Jackson. It was released by New Line Cinema on August 18, 2006 in North America. The David R. Ellis-helmed film was created by David Dalessandro and written by Dalessandro, John Heffernan, and Sheldon Turner. The film has been rated R by the MPAA, 15 by the BBFC and 14A by the CHVRS, due to its content of coarse language, a scene of sexuality and drug use, and intense sequences of terror and violence. Due to its considerable Internet fan base, New Line Cinema incorporated feedback from online users into its production. The film wrapped up principal photography in September 2005, but after anticipation of the upcoming film grew to unexpected levels, the studio later ordered five days of additional re-shooting to raise the MPAA rating from a PG-13 to an R. The storyline of the film is credited to David Dalessandro, a University of Pittsburgh administrator and first-time Hollywood writer, who received the idea in 1992 from a nature magazine. "I read about the Indonesian brown tree snake climbing onto planes in cargo during World War II." He originally wrote the screenplay about the brown tree snake loose on a plane and called it "Venom." He soon revised it to be about poisonous snakes, and then—crediting the film Alien—revised it again to include "lots of them loose in the fuselage of a plane." Dalessandro's third draft of "Venom" was turned down by all 30 Hollywood studios in 1995. He lamented, "My big foray into Hollywood. They put it on a shelf." However, in 1999, a producer for MTV/Paramount followed up before New Line took over. Originally, the film had Hong Kong action director Ronny Yu at the helm. Samuel L. Jackson, who had previously worked with Yu on The 51st State, read about the announced project in the Hollywood trade newspapers and, after talking to Yu, agreed to sign on without reading the script based on the director, storyline and allegedly the title. About two-thirds of the snakes seen in the movie were either animatronic or computer generated. However, about 450 live snakes representing about 25 different species were used, including corn snakes, mangrove snakes, milk snakes, rattlesnakes and king snakes.
