Dialogue
edit- Sean: So, how long you been working with him?
- Neville: Five years, one blown marriage each. He's the toughest son of a bitch I've ever met.
- Neville: We need weapons. Do you have any silverware or cutlery?
- Claire: We don't have any silverware. All we have are these--
- Neville: Sporks?
- Sean: Have you heard of Eddie Kim?
- Tiffany: Who hasn't? Oh! One time I saw on of those cheesy police show remakes where he killed a guy who was a witness against him by cutting out his eyes and feeding them to wild pigs. What have you got to do with him?
- Sean: I'm a witness for the prosecution.
- Tiffany: Oh. That's hot!
- Claire: I'm gonna miss these night flights.
- Grace: I like the passengers so much better when they're unconscious.
- [Grace hears a couple being killed in the bathroom but thinks they are having sex.]
- Grace: Mile High Club. Those were the days.
- [The screaming gets louder]
- Grace: [smiling] Wow, this guy is good.
- [Abruptly, the screaming stops]
- Grace: Well, maybe not that good.
- Neville: What was the first thing I said?
- Sean: Things have changed! The plane is full of snake--God, "Do as I say and you live!"
- Steven Price: Snakes don't attack, unless they're provoked. Something up there's making them go crazy, possibly some kind of drug.
- Neville: Well, that's good news: snakes on crack.
- Sean: It's getting hot in here.
- Neville: I'm from Tennessee, I hadn't noticed.
- Claire: I went through a pyromaniac phase when I was younger.
- Neville: You too, huh?
- Paul: Why exactly are there snakes on this plane?
- Neville: I don't have time to explain.
- Paul: Well, you better make time. You put us at risk and you're gonna tell us why.
- Neville: What I'm gonna tell you is to go back downstairs now.
- Clarence: Man, who the hell you think you are?
- Sean: Whoa whoa whoa, okay, look. The snakes are on the plane because... I'm supposed to testify tomorrow against Eddie Kim.
- [Sean reveals to the other passengers that the snakes are on the plane because he was going to testify against Eddie Kim.]
- Paul: Jesus Christ. We're all dead!
- Neville: Not me. It's my job to handle life-and-death situations on a daily basis. It's what I do, and I'm very good at it. Now you can stand there and be the panicked, angry mob and blame him, me and the government for getting you into this. But if you want to survive tonight, you need to save. your energy and start working together. Now what we need to do is go back in there and find all the dead snakes we can so the doctors on the ground will know what kind of antivenoms we need. Whatever you find, you bring it to me. And I don't need to tell you to be careful.
- Troy: It's not a video-game. It's a flight simulator.
- Neville: Is that PlayStation or Xbox?
- Neville: Brakes, Troy! Put your ass into it!
- Troy: Uh, this part ain't in the game!
- Neville: Is crashing part of the game, huh?!
- Troy: I don't know, man! I usually just hit 'reset' and start the level over!
- [Neville sees that they are about to collide with a building.]
- Neville: Oh shit, left! Left! Turn this big motherfucker left, Troy!
- Sean: What was the first thing you ever said to me?
- Neville: What the fuck does that have to do with anything?
