Snakes on a Phone

Snakes on a Phone

Posted by Peter Hall - August 3rd 2006 @ 12:59 am

So I was walking out of the movies today and noticed I had a voice mail from some number I didn’t recognize.  Upon listening to it I went into a complete stupor.  It was a message from Samuel L. Jackson telling me to go see Snakes on a Plane.  I put it on speaker phone and Christine, my brother and I burst into laughter at what was possibly the greatest marketing ploy ever.

Of course it wasn’t just Sam Jackson calling me up to chat, it was the result of the internet and my buddy Sean.  Thanks to an even clever-er one-up on Snakes‘ already irreversible marketing, to listen to the message (or send it to anyone with a phone or email address), just go to this site, plug in some info and you’ll soon get the baddest muthafucka on the planet yelling at you to go see the greatest movie in cinematic history.

Enjoy, and thanks to Sean for finding it, because now I have a voice mail I’ll never, ever delete.
