Default The Worst Aviation Movie of All Time

I've debated showing "Snakes on a Plane" on "Movie Night", but
"Flightplan" -- a pretty good movie, starring the always-good Jodie
Foster -- was panned by our audience as not being a "real" aviation
flick.

In other words, there's got to be flying in the movie -- real flying,
not just sitting inside an airliner -- or the crowd gets restless.


Snakes on a Plane is one of those movies that is so bad, it is
good. As a movie, it was completely awful. It has every cliche in
the book (flight attendant on her last flight, the kid, the pregnant
lady, the annoying rich guy, etc). But it is a wonderfully awful
movie.

When I saw it, they had a South Pacific Airlines flight attendant
handing out safety briefing cards (both small cards and posters)
of what to do in the event of snakes on a plane.

The other fun thing the theater did was throw rubber snakes at the
audience at various points in the movie.
