Ben and Rob fly first class back to 2006 to federally investigate a $33 million B-movie that somehow became one of the most anticipated films of the internet age, before a single trailer even dropped. This episode traces how Snakes on a Plane went from a modest 1992 spec script to a title so absurdly perfect that Samuel L. Jackson signed on for the name alone.
We dig into the film's tangled decade-long road to the screen, the fan campaigns and internet memes that forced New Line Cinema to re-re-name the film mid-production, and how a movie built almost entirely on hype became a genuine case study in viral marketing before "going viral" was even a phrase people used.
Plot hole's galore, Sam Jackson being Sam Jackson and the best thing to come out of WWII... All truth facts that arre fully, undoubtedly proven.... Probably.
Finally, we ask the bigger question: what does it really mean?! And can Rob finally get us cancelled?
SNAKES TOGETHER LONG!
