snakes on a plane

i've recently discovered that along with being a highly anticipated film, "Snakes on a Plane" is also a very practical phrase to be used in numerous situations. case in point from the urban dictionary:

(a) a simple existential observation that has the same meaning as "Whaddya gonna do?" or "Shit Happens".

Guy 1: (irate) Dude, you just ran into the back of my SUV!
Guy 2: (calm) Snakes on a plane man. Snakes on a plane.

(b) an idiom which states an increasing amount of danger or tension, similar to "the shit's hitting the fan" only much more terrible and apocalyptic.

Dude 1: How's your relationship with Chloe going?
Dude 2: It's getting close to being like snakes on a plane man, seriously.
Dude 3: Damn, dude.

(c) in a heated argument, if one can not sufficiently defend themself, stating "snakes on a plane" automatically wins the argument no matter what the circumstances.

Dude 1: Robocop 2 is way better than Robocop 3
Dude 2: But Robocop 3 had robot ninjas and jetpacks
Dude 1: You know what, snakes on a plane.....snakes on a mutha fuckin plane
