That might not be true. You could argue that the Star Wars prequils relied on geeks jerking each other off on IRC channels about what Anakin Skywalker would look like for 15 years before the movie came out supreme Internet movie buzz that will never be duplicated.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Also, I really loved the movie, but I don't think it will have much long-term appeal. Things like Rocky Horror rely on schicky dialogue, bad jokes, and song and dance to keep it fun for decades on end. Snakes doesn't have any of that. Snakes on a Plane has nothing but Snakes on a Plane. I think after the giant money shot of an opening weekend, this movie will become as forgotten as movies like The Towering Inferno - movies that have a big punch the first time you see it in a theatre, but little re-watch value.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">popejeremy</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 22 Aug 2006 11:42:37 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
