Adding to the list of "movies that will never be shown in-flight," Samuel L. Jackson will star this summer in "Snakes On A Plane." If you haven't heard about this piece of genius yet, you clearly don't spend as much time on the internet as I do. I couldn't do the full range of madness associated with this justice, so just punch the title into your favorite search engine and see what comes up.
I don't know about you (for broad and non-specific values of "you"), but I must see this movie. It's going to be sublime. Today, I saw the trailer. Two things to to note:
1. The opening dialogue is edited; cut a bit, if you will. What Samuel L. Jackson really must have said is "I've had it with these mother-fuckin' snakes."
2. Samuel L. Jackson shoots a snake. In the face!

You'd actually be surprised how little shooting a gun on a plane affects things, even if it pierces the hull (or a window) while pressurized. They tested it on Mythbusters.

I don't watch enough Mythbusters. I really need to fix that.

but wouldn't shooting the gun cause the plane to be depressurized?

To an extent, but not the horrible explosive decompression that movies are fond of portraying. They had to set of an explosive that blew a three food diameter chunk out of the fuselage to even get close to that effect.
