Death Proof Includes A None Too Subtle Snakes On A Plane Reference

According to The Austin Movie Blog, there's a blatant plug for Snakes on a Plane - if a bit after the fact - in Tarantino's currently-shooting Death Proof.

They say of Austin's Paramount Theatre, on South Congress Avenue:

"Instead of displaying the titles of The River and Black Narcissus, which were showing inside, the marquee screamed 'Sam Jackson in Snakes on a Plane.'

A sign at the box office explained that the marquee was styled for a film shoot on Congress, and apologized for the confusion."
