Samuel L. Jackson 101: Snakes on a Plane
from Pop Culture Junkie® · host Pop Culture Junkie
This week, The Junkies continue their in-depth look into beloved actor Samuel L. Jackson’s most iconic roles by watching the legendarily goofy (but not Sharknado goofy) Snakes on a Plane. Is it a comedy? An action-adventure? A romance? It’s really a combination of the three, with bad special effects and a Cobra Starship video thrown in to boot. The Junkies confess what creatures they’d be afraid to be trapped on a plane with, from geckos to…butterflies(?), and wonder how they would die if they were trapped with those monkey-fighting snakes on that Monday-to-Friday plane. Then they enjoy some 2006 technology (phones that are also cameras?!), discuss the movie’s best kill scenes, and act out the scene where Kenan Thompson’s character saves the day with his Playstation prowess.You can prepare for the next class by watching Samuel L. Jackson in Coach Carter.Thank you to Olympus Games, the home of the Pop Culture Junkie Podcast.Links:Apple Podcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/pop-culture-junkie/id1536737728Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/7k2pUxzNDBXNCHzFM7EL8WWebsite: www.popculturejunkie.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/PopCultureJunkiePodcastTwitter: @PopJunkiesInstagram: @pop.culturejunkiesEmail: [email protected] on Instagram: @alcasnunAlex on Twitter: @alcasnunHayley on Instagram: @thirtynerdythrivingNicole on Instagram: @nicole_eldridgeNicole on Twitter: @naeldridge14Nicole on TikTok: @nicole_eldridgeShauna on Twitter: @shaunatrinidadShauna on Instagram: @shaunatrinidad
