We were contacted to do a movie rental and they rented a bunch of items from my collection and a couple of our original pieces from our business, Taboo Tiki. They did this part in the Vancouver Airport where they convereted it to look like a Hawaiian airport and they got a bunch of our stuff in there for set decor. Pretty damn cool but it is not out yet so dont know what it looks like yet. Knowing how these rentals work, you probably wont see a thing but who knows. Maybe someone gets shot or bitten to death on one of our Tiki poles!! That would be cool but probably not! Thought some of you might want to check it out as there is alot of hype about this movie coming out! So keep your eyes open!! Mahalo, TabooDan I can confirm this, there are some tikis in Snakes on a Plane. I wouldn't see it just for the tikis but it was a pleasant surprise for me. They are all in the first 20 or so minutes of the movie.
