Cult of Personality

This thought didn’t exactly keep me awake last night, but:

If people are claiming that despite a very large following, even before the movie’s release, that Snakes on a Plane is going to be a “cult film”; does that mean that people will shy away from it in theaters? Will people who desperately want it to be a cult film refrain from seeing it on the big screen on purpose, in order to help it along to cult status? Will those who were wary of it in the first place stay away because of it already being tainted with a potential “cult” status? Or will millions will fork over their hard-earned money to see Samuel L. Jackson fight off a bunch of motherfuckin’ snakes on a motherfuckin’ plane?

I dunno. I actually think that Snakes on a Plane could be the sleeper hit of the summer and outgross some of the more expensive and over-hyped movies from the summer season.

But that’s just me.
