Any action movie directed by John Carpenter is automatically more badass and epic than any of the modern shitfest CGI trash
@Shalanaya4 роки тому
This movie had some of the best CGI I've ever seen, the beauty of it is that it doesn't attempt to be the main attraction, only a showcase of falsiness of the audience who's putting so much focus on effects. The film's effects are so good exactly because they look so weird. It's not about how realistic things are in this film (based on our own perception of reality), it's about how much you're willing to get lost in its own world.
@FunkyGOBРік тому
I love me some John Carpenter films. Vampires to Assault on Precinct 13 (the original). Christine to They Live. The Fog to Body Bags. And all of the mainstays. Buuuuut I’d be careless to ignore the “ugh” factor when I think of films like Escape From LA and Ghosts of Mars. Films like Broken Arrow and Face/Off were redefining action films with very little CGI around the time of Escape from LA’s production and release. Yes I know comparing John Woo to John Carpenter in regards to action films seems unfair but we know Carpenter CAN direct decent action films so I kind of throw my hands up and say “the fk were you thinking Johnny?!” While the sets and costume work were great and more imaginative than any Star Wars film post Return of the Jedi, Escape from LA took a fun and innovative post apocalyptic romp (Escape from New York) and cheapened its legacy imo. Russell is and always will be a badass in ANYTHING he does no matter how awful the plot may be. I mean who else can play a one eyed badass (Snake Plissken) and turn around and play a fake one eyed badass (Captain Ron) and not miss a beat? Awful writing, surfing some of the lamest CGI effects and an aging Kurt Russell stiffly running yet somehow being awesome at basketball killed it for me. But Escape From LA’s musical score will always be on my playlist because Carpenter will ALWAYS be the best composer. John Williams and Hans Zimmer can eat an orchestra of 🍆

It's not going to happen. Kurt Russel and any one who resembles him are not welcome in Woketard LALA Land. It's such a shame that Hideo Kojima is prohibited from admiring Kurt Russell because Kurt Russell is a straight white male and his politics are not woke enough for Hollywood! Horrible JJ Abrams forced Kojima to accept a bisexaully coded latinxer (bisexually coded Oscar "Wilde" Isaac, aka Poe bisexual Ho for Finn) so that a race swap and lbgqts representation could be inserted into the Metal Gear live actions movie. That's so oppressive and manilpulative and white privileged of JJ Abrams to dictate what Hideo Kojima, a Japanese man, must like and approve of. Kojima originally strongly preferred a strong white American male type like Kurt Russell, NOT A BISEXUAL LATINXER STEALTH LARPER.

I remember being angry; not because the movie was bad but because was great. While watching the end of the movie with somebody else, when it turned out Snake wasn't in harm's way (being a hologram at the time) having the real remote control to the Doomsday device and using it to shutdown the entire Earth, and that person I was watching the movie with said he "saw it coming". How? This movie is loaded with so-o-o-o many distractions, I was paralyzed on the couch I was sitting on. My body refused to move because I might miss out. Pausing was out of the question because then the movie's momentum would be gone (and the paralysis.) I had a trust with movie reviewers and the public but now ... it's mostly gone.

I am the biggest John Carpenter fan you will ever want to run into. L.A. is awesome but, Escape from New York is a goddamn masterpiece. This isn't saying much because Carpenter was overflowing with PERFECTION in the late, late 70's and all through the eighties. Russel and Carpenter = a great fucking time. See you at the movies. :)

Never let other peoples opinions influence your decision to see any movie, show or to read any book you want to know about.

The original Snake was supposed to be Stallone Cobra. I think after the first Escape from... Kojima changed his mind. Great movie. Makes me wonder if there were a third movie Kurt Russel would do a raspy voice like Solid Snake. Just to make fun out of it.

escape came out before cobra.. you make no sense.

Look at the images regarding Solid Snake. He has short hair and resemble more a mix of Stallone Cobra, Rambo than Snake Pliskin. Only after going full 3d Snake was re imagined. The second one MGS he shows mullet and all.

Actually the original snake was modeled after Michael Beihn in Aliens (compare scenes from that film with the original NES Metal Gear). It wasn't until later that Kojima modeled Solid Snake after Snake Plissken and even acknowledges that in Sons of Liberty when Snake uses the name "Plissken" in meeting Raiden for the first time.
