Snakes on a Plane’s excitement builds 

I stand corrected on the amount of fan-generated going on out there, thanks to Mack Collier and Jackie Huba.
   As Jackie summarized at her blog: ‘fans have organized parties at midnight showings, including throwing paper airplanes and rubber snakes at the screen’; ‘Damnation, makers of some of the first t-shirts, is organizing a -watching party’; ‘SoaP fans can meet up to watch the movie in their city on this online forum or attend one of 40 parties sponsored by Fark.com’.
   I would still love to see the outcome of the earlier-blogged movie competition (the one with Lions on a Bus) at this time, blog activity hyping the film beyond attendance (e.g. Snakes on a Blog), an online for folks who can’t be there, and pre-première coverage, maybe by fans on YouTube (some earlier videos exist). However, the forum has some Snakes buzz, and I did concede from the beginning that 11 million Google references to the title, in quotes, is incredibly high.
   I still take my hat off to all these parties’ organizers so far, especially remarkable as it’s all for a film that no one has seen yet.

I think these people are determined to love this movie no matter HOW bad it is. In fact, the more it sucks the more beloved it will be. I find the whole thing hilarious.  
I’ll be interested to see the reviews come Friday, to be sure!

Entries from 2006 to the end of 2009 were done on the Blogger service. As of January 1, 2010, this blog has shifted to a Wordpress installation, with the latest posts here.
   With Blogger ceasing to support FTP publishing on May 1, I have decided to turn these older pages in to an archive, so you will no longer be able to enter comments. However, you can comment on entries posted after January 1, 2010.
