  25. [..YouTube..] the best John Carpenter movie just behind halloween

  26. [..YouTube..] Great movie. This is definitely in my top 5 favorites of John Carpenter’s films. My top 5 would be: Halloween, The Thing, The Fog, Escape from New York, and Prince of Darkness….in that order.

  27. [..YouTube..] love this movie and escape from l atop ten movies ever

  28. [..YouTube..] Why remake this great movie?

  29. [..YouTube..] Great movie!

  30. [..YouTube..] My top five would be (in order): Big Trouble in Little China, Escape from New York, The Thing, Halloween, and The Fog

  31. [..YouTube..] If they remake this with that dude from 300 or anybody, i just might not see another movie ever again! I heard that they want to remake this and the thing, why WHY!!! Stop remaking Capenter movies!

  32. [..YouTube..] they should just get kurt russell and make a sequel.. escape from the world..

  33. [..YouTube..] THERE WAS a sequel. Escape from L.A. Kurt Russel was in it and it sucked.

  34. [..YouTube..] Love the scene when he lands the plane on top of the W.T.C

  35. [..YouTube..] My favorite Carpenter movies are:#1 Assault on Precinct 13 (1976)#2 Escape from New York#3 The Thing#4 Christine#5 The Fog

  36. [..YouTube..] Or how about: The Return to Cleveland… Well, I like the concept, but it doesn’t sound like so snappy a title once I’ve written it down :P

  37. [..YouTube..] Nice. It’s a good trailer for it’s age, nicely edited and all that, but they kinda missed the key plot point that it’s the US President he’s gotta rescue.

  38. [..YouTube..] Great movie,love the music.I just read somewhere that Jamie Lee Curtis does the narration at the beginning.Never realised but obvious now,duh!!

  39. [..YouTube..] Great movie,love the music.I just read somewhere that Jamie Lee Curtis does the narration at the beginning.Never realised but obvious now,duh!!

  40. [..YouTube..] i agree so much man, no remake can capture the greatness, the atmosphere of this film..

  41. [..YouTube..] The best poker Coupon Code I´ve found in the last couple of months is definitely NOLUCK for CDPoker com! I got an extra $ 600 for my first deposit! Poker is so much more enjoyable these days, there´s basically no risk!

  42. [..YouTube..] CHE SPETTACOLO….

  43. [..YouTube..] carpenter is the man when it comes to this type of movie

  44. [..YouTube..] this movie never gets old i hope the plans for a remake go under. it dont need to be remade

  45. [..YouTube..] damn right. if they try to do a remake itll turn crap

  46. [..YouTube..] they change the size of the snake? and these were intended to be “B” movies only liked this one the other one was alright. but not as cool it more like a big joke not in a bad way though!

  47. [..YouTube..] 1997! lol why do they always set sci-fi movies too close to the present day?

  48. [..YouTube..] if any of you dont like escape from new york or escpae from L.A. then you SUCKseriously those have to be on my top ten list for oldie movies.yeah, rock on kurt russel!

  49. [..YouTube..] Too bad they didn’t have Darwin Joston in this, he was fuckin badass in Assault On Precinct 13 (1976)

  50. [..YouTube..] lol they said john carpenter excape from new york like freakin 3 times

  51. [..YouTube..] I’m checkin’ up wikipedia and I type Cloverfield and from what I read it seems Escape from New York is related or inspired Cloverfield which is interesting. But still this movie is awesome.

  52. [..YouTube..] The best movie ever. My all time favorite action of all time.

  53. [..YouTube..] I must have missed it… I never knew that back in 97, New York was a walled maximum security prison….. wow, where the fuck have i been all these years….. lol, i’m j/k. I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!! And escape from L.A., but i liked this one better

  54. [..YouTube..] Did you know, this was the original Cloverfield

  55. [..YouTube..] not really jj abrams just said it was a big influence in his life

  56. [..YouTube..] Oh…I should of read the full headline before jumping to conclusions

  57. [..YouTube..] it’s the same story as escabe from LA not very creative

  58. [..YouTube..] The perfect low budget movie. A classic…

  59. [..YouTube..] I remember 1997 in New York and it WAS HARSH!

  60. [..YouTube..] I think it’s funny when Snake shoots a circle in the wall, then jumps through what is clearly cardboard. Really though, this is one of the first films I remember seeing as a Kid. Great stuff.

  61. [..YouTube..] I remember watching this movie as a kid and thinking it was sooo cool. I thought New York must be some kinda f’n hell hole or somethin, lol . . .

  62. [..YouTube..] Such an awesome movie I still love it to date great plot, action, cast and lots of other aspects.

  63. [..YouTube..] IT’S ABOUT TO BLOW THE FUTURE APART

  64. [..YouTube..] Thanks for the comments. EFNY is an awesome sci-fi action thriller and very influential. I think it’s awesome and love the special edition DVD. Keep up the comments and enjoy

  65. [..YouTube..] Bad ass soundtrack and bad ass movie …. never make ‘em like this again and love my 80’s!! Only two years earlier “The Warriors” came out but this was icing on the cake for me!! Thanks!

  66. [..YouTube..] Awesome. I wanted to BE Snake Plissken when I was a kid!

  67. [..YouTube..] great movie John Carpenter is great director

  68. [..YouTube..] great movie John Carpenter is great director

  69. [..YouTube..] the old cloverfield?

  70. [..YouTube..] the old cloverfield?

  71. [..YouTube..] According to a March 12, 2007 article in Variety magazine, Gerard Butler was close to signing a deal where he would play Snake Plissken in a remake of Carpenter’s movie.[4] Neal Moritz was to produce and Ken Nolan was to write the screenplay which would combine an original story for Plissken with the story from the 1981 movie, although Carpenter has hinted that the film might be a prequel.[24]

  72. [..YouTube..] Sleeping Beauty CastleThe concept for Disneyland began one Sunday when Walt Disney was

  73. [..YouTube..] Personally I thought The warriors was very boring. Never seen Escape from New York but it does look good.

  74. [..YouTube..] Probably John Carpenter’s best film. One of Kurt Rusesell’s best characters potrayed on the screen. Crapenter’s score to this film is amazing. The sequel has only got on good thing about it: the score. A remake of this film wouldn’t really work. Stop remaking classic films from the 70’s and the 80’s.

  76. [..YouTube..] they are trying to remake this, horrible, No one could be plisskin but kurt Russel

  77. [..YouTube..] I just saw this movie and it was really interesting, proberbly one of the best dystopian future movies i’ve seen as well as one of the best anti-heroes i’ve seen on film that is “snake plissken”..acutally i start to wonder if the makers of The Game METAL GEAR copied the character of plissken because there are so many connections between snake plissken and solid snake!

  78. [..YouTube..] Kurt gonna kick drew carrey’s ass in it? If so i am all for it

  79. [..YouTube..] more like 2017!

  80. [..YouTube..] seriously wtf

  81. [..YouTube..] seriously wtf

  82. [..YouTube..] Call me Snake.

  83. [..YouTube..] -Le président a été enlevé.-Président de quoi?-Je deteste qu’on se foute de moi.This is in the french text, i dont know if this is the same thing in the original dialog

  84. [..YouTube..] yea, i saw anywhere that the charachter Revolver Ocelot is from Lee Van Cleef !

  85. [..YouTube..] gee I wonder why John Carpenter hasn’t sued Konami by now?

  86. [..YouTube..] gee I wonder why John Carpenter hasn’t sued Konami by now?

  87. [..YouTube..] Yeah, actually Kojima has already stated a while back that Solid Snake was based off of Snake Plissken(apparently Escape from NY was one of his favorite films or something).

  88. [..YouTube..] I love this movie.

  89. [..YouTube..] This movie’s a classic and was made on a $5 million dollar budget. I heard New Line Cinema wants to do a big budget remake which is completely wrong. Kurt Russell was and is the ultimate Snake Plissken even though L.A. was a bad escape.

  90. [..YouTube..] What’s the song in the trailer? It was in Beverly Hills Cop 2 now I want to know it.Thanks if someone answers it.

  91. [..YouTube..] i wish we could get to see the crazies more in this film, they’re soooo creepy!

  92. [..YouTube..] that is EXACTLY HOW I FEEL! :)

  93. [..YouTube..] he lands on world trade center

  94. [..YouTube..] John Carpenter wrote the score for this :)

  95. [..YouTube..] The song is “Duke Arrives/ Barricade” by John Carpenter.

  96. [..YouTube..] deff a classic but why not welcome a remake… they will only make asses of themselves so let em have at it… there will only ever be one snake plissken

  97. [..YouTube..] I love this film. it is a true gem.the remake will suck. the thing that sucks the most is that there is a whole generation of kids that will think the remake is the original.

  98. [..YouTube..] damn I never knew solid snake has his own movie lol

  99. [..YouTube..] damn I never knew solid snake has his own movie lol

  100. [..YouTube..] Hideo Kojima, created Metal Gear. He saw Escape from NY, and was stunned. He loves it, and used the codename Snake. It is not only Escape from NY who is inspiration for the Metal Gear saga, also Rambo and Bruce Lee movies.

  102. [..YouTube..] if they made a metal gear solid movie in the 90s they should have had Kurt Russel play him.

  103. [..YouTube..] of course. He is Snake Plissken afterall. Without him, the Metal Gear saga might not’ve been existed, or would at least been very diffirent.

  104. [..YouTube..] of course. He is Snake Plissken afterall. Without him, the Metal Gear saga might not’ve been existed, or would at least been very diffirent.

  105. [..YouTube..] Love this film. Kurt is so cool as Snake. What a supporting cast too. Plesance, Van Cleef, Borgnine, Dean Stanton and Hayes.

  106. [..YouTube..] Love this film. Kurt is so cool as Snake. What a supporting cast too. Plesance, Van Cleef, Borgnine, Dean Stanton and Hayes.

  107. [..YouTube..] Seriously man; the way Snake talks, his face design, or even the eye patch on Big Boss

  108. [..YouTube..] yeah thats what I mean.

  109. [..YouTube..] yeah thats what I mean.

  110. [..YouTube..] Wow New York was a mess in 1997. Good thing they cleaned it up now by 2008

  111. [..YouTube..] I thought he was dead?

  112. [..YouTube..] I thought he was dead?

  113. [..YouTube..] Snake was the first Rambo.

  114. [..YouTube..] Holy crap, this is almost 30 years old!

  115. [..YouTube..] Holy crap, this is almost 30 years old!

  116. [..YouTube..] Holy crap, this is almost 30 years old!

  117. [..YouTube..] Great!

  118. [..YouTube..] Does anyone one knows who the actor is that shows the Presidents finger to Hauk ? The script refers to him as Weirdo.

  119. [..YouTube..] Does anyone one knows who the actor is that shows the Presidents finger to Hauk ? The script refers to him as Weirdo.

  120. [..YouTube..] sort of, first movie rambo, but john rambo from the book first blood was around before plissken.

  135. [..YouTube..] His name is Frank Doubleday. He is also in Assault on Precinct 13. Yes, I do LOVE JC’s movies!

  136. [..YouTube..] John Carpenter should SUE. Beverly Hills Cop ripped off his score.

  137. [..YouTube..] John Carpenter should SUE. Beverly Hills Cop ripped off his score.

  138. [..YouTube..] Awesome!! :D :D

    Like mgsfan91 said, and I quote: “Hideo Kojima (creator of MG) got the inspiration of Metal Gear, thx to this great movie.” I mean, I’ve been with MGS since part 1-3, and the upcoming 4. I’ve always wanted to watched this! I saw half of it on TV once… I wanna see the whole thing!

    (Oh. And marcfigu? mgsfan91 is not the only MGS fan here. I love the series. Please give respect to us MGS fans…) Thank you very much. I appriciate it. :)

  139. [..YouTube..] Awesome!! :D :D

  140. [..YouTube..] No, Kojima based Solid Snake on Snake Plisskin, Escape From New York didn’t inspire him to make the MG series. A funny aside, at first I thought it was out of place to see the Twin Towers still standing in the movie but since this takes place in 1997, they would (technically) still be intact. Carpenter is a genius!

  142. [..YouTube..] 1997? ha ha ha Anyway, it’s funny how those 1970s and 1980’s futuristic films are becoming reality in 2008. The American economy on the brink of collapse, people fighting and stealing gasoline and oil. The US running a police state of the world. Though it looks more like a Mad Max world than this movie. But still NYC is more a less a prison and a dirty one at that.

  143. [..YouTube..] You’ll love the movie and the dark 80’s music. And MGS series is the bomb!

  144. [..YouTube..] You’ll love the movie and the dark 80’s music. And MGS series is the bomb!

  152. [..YouTube..] 80’s movies rock!, so do 90’s, most 2000+ movies suck compared to most 80’s and 90’s since they have more character and more effort was put into 80’s-90’s films. Kurt Russel’s best movie was Captain Ron! and Unlawful Entry with Ray Liotta.

  153. [..YouTube..] That’s okay Kitty, it can happen to anyone.

  154. [..YouTube..] Wow, this is so tacky.
    I was told that this was a good film so I had a look.
    I didn’t expect this.

  155. [..YouTube..] 1997, ahh…. what a good year in ny, yes it was…

  169. [..YouTube..] yup… Gerald Butler the guy who played King Leonidies in 300 is playing snake… apparently Kurt Russel (who played Snake in this movie and escape from la) was pissed about the new snake because he thought that Snake was all american and because Butler is not american it inferiated him more

  173. [..YouTube..] wow, how observant

  174. [..YouTube..] wow, how observant

  175. [..YouTube..] It actually is a good film. Well, if you are at all able to appreciate good cinema of all sorts and eras, and able to enjoy a well-made action movie bordering on B without meticulously looking for high art in it, with an open mind.

    This trailer kind of reminds me of those old trailers for the original Alien and the first Terminator - they tell you next to nothing about how revered the films actually became.

  201. [..YouTube..] i watched this movie on AMC and i thought it wuz so stupid like they would ever turn the great city of NYC into a prison? so ridiculous NYC is way too important to just be turned into a maximum security prison and i dont think crime would ever get so bad it would rise 400% if people hate my opinion put mi comment as spam idc

  210. [..YouTube..] This movie should not be remade. I just heard that the studio just brought in Johnathon Mostow to pen a rewrite with an option to direct, & the might bring in Josh Brolin to play Snake Pliskin.
    i hope the remake goes down the toilet.

    the one movie to see is John Carpenter’s Escape From New York.

  215. [..YouTube..] badass movie

  216. [..YouTube..] I don’t see how taking the Heatshields and handguards off of the AR-15’s made them look high tech.

    Did they say John Carpenter enough in the trailer?

  221. [..YouTube..] Myself & my friend are writing a homage/Remake. It’s
    Escape From New York By way of The Road Warrior.

    Were calling it Outland. It follow the same outline Of Escape From new York & the chase scenes will be A Homage to The Road warrior.

    Mr. Carpenter & Mr. Miller we love Escape From New York & The Road Warrior Very Much. Any ways we want to do a Sci-Fi Action film.

    It would nice if you can give me your blessing on the project. Also if you can help me that would be great.

  233. [..YouTube..] Hey dude Alex Fog wait you!!!You don’t believe me…looking on the web..

  234. [..YouTube..] It’s not odd. It was intentional. Hideo Kojima’s a big fan of this movie.

  235. [..YouTube..] First VHS tape ever rented. Wow, what a ride back then. The beginning of many violent hero/bad guy second chance then done wrong movies to come.

  236. [..YouTube..] F*cking awesome movie. One of Carpenter’s best, bar none.

  237. [..YouTube..] F*cking awesome movie. One of Carpenter’s best, bar none.

  238. [..YouTube..] Also the first vid that I rented. But the first film I saw on VHS, was Superman 2 back in 1981. Saw it on a massive top-loader JVC machine.

    Thank god for DVD, better quality, and extras.

  239. [..YouTube..] We used to have to go to my Uncle’s to watch movies because they had the Betamax, then my dad came home with a VHS. The TV it sat on was the size of an oven, so I didn’t notice the bulkiness. Then we got a new tv and sattelite and that old tv and that stuff sat right on top of the old tv. Nothing can beat coming home from school and seeing those VHS rentals sitting there. We used to go to drive-ins, but this was it we could make our own popcorn and watch at home for cheap. Awesome!

  265. [..YouTube..] The 80’s were the time of the best arcade games … it makes sense that the movies of the 80’s should also make great games.

    Someone needs to make a first person shooter based on this movie. It would rock.

  273. [..YouTube..] I’m writing a screenplay that’s a homage/remake to both Escape From New York & The Road Warrior.

    It’s Called Outland.

    San Francisco becomes a prison just like New York.

    & the hero I have for this movie is a mix of Snake Plissken & Mad max & Clint Eastwood & Lee Van Cleef.

    If anyone can get contact to John Carpenter that would nice. Thanks.

  275. [..YouTube..] Wel, that sounds interesting. The MAD MAX trilogy is my favorite trilogy of all time. Especially The Road Warrior. Just watched the first two last night. Escape from New York is a good one too. Though I think there is a movie out all ready called “Outland”. I think Sean Connery is in it. I’ve often though of combining the movies “The Road Warrior” and “Dragonheart” (another favorite). I wish you the best with your script writing!

  290. [..YouTube..] yeah… this happened, but the they decided it wasnt working after the whole president/snake fiasco and decided to return it to how it was

  291. [..YouTube..] So doesn’t that tattoo of a snake coming out of his pants set up some uh, unrealistic expectations..?

  292. [..YouTube..] So doesn’t that tattoo of a snake coming out of his pants set up some uh, unrealistic expectations..?

  296. [..YouTube..] The character Snake in this movie is the person Hideo Kojima based Solid Snake after. “Snake”

  297. [..YouTube..] ahaha lol…one day, in future, maybe this story become a urban legend xD

  298. [..YouTube..] did this really happen in 97?
    :P
    kickass movie tho!

  299. [..YouTube..] i love the lighting in this film so much…

    films of this era had look and feel all of their own..

    most of todays films are like mp3 downloads, where as films from this era are like classic vinyls…

  300. [..YouTube..] This movie is a classic with a marvelous soundtrack. Sadly the follow up “The Escape from L.A” is total junk.

  301. [..YouTube..] This movie is a classic with a marvelous soundtrack. Sadly the follow up “The Escape from L.A” is total junk.

  302. [..YouTube..] Legendary!

  303. [..YouTube..] Agreed.

  304. [..YouTube..] hmm so wat is this about hmm jail brake xD or can some one explain pls

  305. [..YouTube..] hmm yeah kinda. manhattan is a prison and russel has to rescue the president of the usa because his plane chrashed down there. its one of the coolest flicks ever made go see it !

  306. [..YouTube..] hmm yeah kinda. manhattan is a prison and russel has to rescue the president of the usa because his plane chrashed down there. its one of the coolest flicks ever made go see it !

  307. [..YouTube..] ive got this downloadin now and im like fully into mgs..cant fukin wait! ahaha

  308. [..YouTube..] lmao! We are all here for the same reason right?

  309. [..YouTube..] who cares about mgs! this has nothing to do with it!

  310. [..YouTube..] its not Total junk, its OK but nothing more, this one however is a billion times better,,,,

  311. [..YouTube..] lol hostile child you are. And actually, Plisken is the basis for Solid Snake, hence why Solid Snake’s codename in MGS2 was “Iroquis Pliskin” (Iroqois means black snake, referring to Pliskin’s tattoo). Also, similar character traits to big boss.
    So errr yah, you’re pretty fuckin’ wrong there.

  312. [..YouTube..] finally someone else who knows this. Thank U, no one fuckin believes me when I tell them who solid snake is based off of cause they never heard of this movie, and yes this has everything to with MGS!

  313. [..YouTube..] finally someone else who knows this. Thank U, no one fuckin believes me when I tell them who solid snake is based off of cause they never heard of this movie, and yes this has everything to with MGS!

  314. [..YouTube..] if they make a third one they should either call it, “escape from D.C” or “escape from new jersey”

  315. [..YouTube..] because of MGS? :P yes!

  316. [..YouTube..] This movie inspired MGS right?
    I can definitely see that.
    The main character looks like a cross between Rambo and Solid Snake.

  317. [..YouTube..] u guessed it :P

  318. [..YouTube..] u guessed it :P

  319. [..YouTube..] he looks like Snake

  320. [..YouTube..] didn’t d Japanese make MGS?

  321. [..YouTube..] i really want 2 see this movie

  322. [..YouTube..] i really want 2 see this movie

    “I thought you was dead?”

  329. [..YouTube..] yea…the director got his inspiration from this movie and i forgot there was an other one

  330. [..YouTube..] then check out my page… it`s there ;)

  331. [..YouTube..] I wonder if New York will really look like this in 1997…? :S

  332. [..YouTube..] “The United States Police Force… has everything under control…they think…”

  333. [..YouTube..] “The United States Police Force… has everything under control…they think…”

  334. [..YouTube..] It’s one my favorite movies of all time. Saw it for the first time on public tv back in 1986. Have it on special 2 disc dvd edition.

  335. [..YouTube..] saw it at a drive in in 1981……..still one of my favorites!!!

  336. [..YouTube..] saw it at a drive in in 1981……..still one of my favorites!!!

  337. [..YouTube..] Did this or another film have a tag line saying, “Breaking out is impossible, breaking in is insane”
    Yeah, I know I can always google. Put it to you chaps.
    I still have the poster magazine!

  338. [..YouTube..] i wanna see the World Trade Center..

  339. [..YouTube..] haha

  340. [..YouTube..] I would have loved to hear at the end, instead of saying future they say fuck. It would have been hilarious.

  341. [..YouTube..] Great movie. Favorite scenes: Making a door with a Mac-10 and the “David vs. Goliath” death match.

  342. [..YouTube..] 0:14 - 0:17

    Thats not true, NYC is not just Manhattan.

  343. [..YouTube..] a of my fav movies

  344. [..YouTube..] a of my fav movies

  345. [..YouTube..] Yeah it was this one, can’t remember the tag from the sequel EFLA though

  346. [..YouTube..] Sequel sucked. But I want to view it again to be sure!
    At the moment my torrent film viewing is stuck in 1932. I watch year by year and last night it was The Mummy 1932.
    Amazing what you learn from old silent movies. Batman started not in comics. But in a film in circa 1925 and 1927. I suggest you all start from scratch!

  347. [..YouTube..] Kurt looks so much like SDnake from Metal Gear Solid here…

  348. [..YouTube..] Kurt looks so much like Snake from Metal Gear Solid here…

  349. [..YouTube..] snake?!?!?!

  350. [..YouTube..] I disagree about the sequel, a little disappointing maybe. But it didnt suck. I agree with you about starting from scratch. Older films are not appreciated nearly enough. I have viewed many on (TCM) turner classic movies. Silent films are fantastic.

  352. [..YouTube..] your right the fist was fucking wicked the second was good i loved not as good as the first but still mad it sure as hell didn’t suck

  353. [..YouTube..] This movie & MGS is amazing

  354. [..YouTube..] john carpenter sucks

  355. [..YouTube..] john carpenter sucks

  356. [..YouTube..] I wish that was true, but Escape from LA is just painful to watch. Pretty much all the early John Carpenter movies make it into my top 50 of all time, but anything after Prince of Darkness is just horrible. But man, his body of work from Dark Star up to They Live is just pure gold, movie after movie.

  357. [..YouTube..] lol seems like a grindhouse trailer :)

  358. [..YouTube..] It’s crazy to note that if the timeline of this movie took place just 4 years later Snake Plissken could have never landed on top of One of the Twin Towers….GOOGLE: New Pearl Harbor and New World Order For The Truth!

  359. [..YouTube..] My nomination for title:
    Escape From New Jersey:
    I GOT YOUR TAYLOR HAM RIGHT HERE!

  360. [..YouTube..] My nomination for title:

    ESCAPE FROM GEORGIA
    man1: “RUN!”
    man 2: “from what?”
    man1: “oh yeah”

    end.

  365. [..YouTube..] this is exactly what the USA will look like in a couple of years.

    and john carpenter will be lauded as the new nostradamus for making this movie.

  366. [..YouTube..] this is exactly what the USA will look like in a couple of years.

    and john carpenter will be lauded as the new nostradamus for making this movie.

  367. [..YouTube..] WHY??????? YOUR SOOOOO WRONG.

  368. [..YouTube..] this is like a game called Quarantine

  369. [..YouTube..] You forgot the part that went like this

    man1: run
    man2: from what
    man1: Niggers

  370. [..YouTube..] You forgot the part that went like this

    man1: run
    man2: from what

  371. [..YouTube..] yeah i didnt feel like getting hate mail for racism.

  372. [..YouTube..] yeah i didnt feel like getting hate mail for racism.

  373. [..YouTube..] USA a fascist country I like it !!keep everybody in line !!John Carpenter wrote this film in 1974 man did he see the future or what !!we migh be headed that way !!

  374. [..YouTube..] USA a fascist country I like it !!keep everybody in line !!John Carpenter wrote this film in 1974 man did he see the future or what !!we migh be headed that way !!

  375. [..YouTube..] Only if the diabolical George W. Bush could have been elected for 3rd term would America become like in this movie, since he cared only about the rich and the corporations.

    But now America has a president who cares only about the best interests of society. Now we live in a age of light!

  376. [..YouTube..] amen

  377. [..YouTube..] hah did they just call 1997 the future…

  378. [..YouTube..] hah did they just call 1997 the future…

  379. [..YouTube..] Ah.I love this movie.A classic.

  380. [..YouTube..] Ah.I love this movie.A classic.

  381. [..YouTube..] what fairytale land do you live in?

  382. [..YouTube..] what fairytale land do you live in?

  383. [..YouTube..] polarbear122, the mainstream media has taught me everything I know.

  384. [..YouTube..] polarbear122, the mainstream media has taught me everything I know.

  385. [..YouTube..] lol. Just imagine Bill Clinton declared Manhattan as the new Guantanamo Prison.
    At least the WTC would have survived. Osama would have crushed the Golden Gate Bridge instead.

  386. [..YouTube..] lol. Just imagine Bill Clinton declared Manhattan as the new Guantanamo Prison.
    At least the WTC would have survived. Osama would have crushed the Golden Gate Bridge instead.

  387. [..YouTube..] in the 1980s 1999 was a disaster so thats why

  388. [..YouTube..] Great movie! And like all other Carpenter films, the soundtrack is amazing!

  389. [..YouTube..] Said to be an inspiration to the Metal Gear Solid series.

  390. [..YouTube..] its a fuckin great film

  391. [..YouTube..] Yeah right, different leader, same shit. I believe Snake said it best “The more the World changes, the more it stays the same”

  392. [..YouTube..] Michaellaguerre of course they called 1997 the future. It WAS the future when this film was made in 1981.

  393. [..YouTube..] interesting. the explosive charge in the neck concept reused again in MI3 with tom cruise.

  394. [..YouTube..] Tom Cruise WISHED he were Kurt Russell. Mi3 will NEVER be Escape from NY!

  395. [..YouTube..] If only 1997 actually turned out like this…Now that would be scary.

    I always laugh about these kinds of things when I watch old movies, like Back to The Future…

  396. [..YouTube..] i saw this on TV on my hotel…lol

  397. [..YouTube..] hahaha I thought the narrator was going to say “Its gonna blow the Fuck up”

  398. [..YouTube..] Are you kidding? Have you ever been to NY City? Cameras everywhere. Police can search you without a warrant. Police break the law constantly just to give someone a ticket. Any anti-government protest ends with police killing civilians. It’s a prison where people have no rights.

  400. [..YouTube..] Yes, I have been to New York City. Although, I’m white, so my experience may differ from yours.

    The point I was trying to make with my comment was about old movies that were about the future, *not* about New York.

  401. [..YouTube..] I know what you mean if you seen A CLOCKWORK ORANGE it was suppose to be in the 90s but everything stuck in the 60s. lol Henson was 90s.

  402. [..YouTube..] solid snake and iroquois pliskin was based off this guy.

  403. [..YouTube..] lol almost

  404. [..YouTube..] this is one of my favorite movies ever, and “Escape From L.A”, when I heard they were going to make another as an “origins” type or recreate the first. I was like “noooooooooooooo” and Gerald Butler will be playing as Snake Plissken. and if you dont know who that is, its the actor who played King Leonidis in “300″.

    even Kurt Russel was disappointed, he was like “Gerald Butler?!, hes not even American”

    regardless who plays it and who directs it, the original will always be Legendary.

  405. [..YouTube..] you´ve soo right!

  406. [..YouTube..] I agree man.

    Tom Cruise isn’t a pimple on Kurt Russell’s ass.

    Kurt Russell >>>>>>>>>>>>> Tom Cruise

  407. [..YouTube..] Kurt Russell took on the Woodland Critters of Imaginationland… Tom Cruise hid in Stan Marsh’s closet like a bitch because the Church of Scientology didn’t like his movies.

  408. [..YouTube..] yup

  409. [..YouTube..] Check the thinness of the wall @ 0:59

  410. [..YouTube..] Check the thinness of the wall @ 0:59

  411. [..YouTube..] ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK
    THE THING
    ESCAPE FROM LA

    john carpenter and kurt russell…
    awesome couple :D

  412. [..YouTube..] ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK
    THE THING
    ESCAPE FROM LA

    john carpenter and kurt russell…
    awesome couple :D

  413. [..YouTube..] Don’t forget Big Trouble in Little China.

  414. [..YouTube..] I really don’t get of how this movie is rated R? There’s no boobs,strong violence, or language? Movie’s awesome but Mpaa is confusing me?

  415. [..YouTube..] I knew it! This is the very vid that metal gear was based!! the original metal gear on family com was created on 1987 after this movie, so thats why he is called snake…!!!

  416. [..YouTube..] Nevermind I watched the movie twice

  417. [..YouTube..] Nevermind I watched the movie twice

  418. [..YouTube..] Oh yeah, there isn’t even room for comparison. Kurt’s a total bad-ass. Thomasina is just a fake nancy boy who doesn’t deserve to have Katie Holmes as his beard!

  419. [..YouTube..] Si hubiesemos sabido que el 9/11 la realidad supero a la ficcion…

  420. [..YouTube..] my all time favorite movie (as well as escape from LA)

  421. [..YouTube..] I like how they turn SNAKE the anti-hero into a hero in this film. What a great movie! Snake just won’t roll over and die.

  422. [..YouTube..] Thats on ho Pliskin in MGS is based or snake

  423. [..YouTube..] got it on blu ray brill

  424. [..YouTube..] i dont see how being locked in Mannhatten would really qualify as a prison

  425. [..YouTube..] The R rating, as with the 18 rating in Britain, makes no sense at all. The classification is far too widespread for it to have any real purpose other than attracting the attention of people who are legally too young to watch it in the first place.

  426. [..YouTube..] I don’t give a fuck about your war, or your president

  427. [..YouTube..] I need to get this on DVD i’ve only seen it once, im sick of watching escape from L.A over and over lol.

  428. [..YouTube..] trashy, corny, cheesy, cheap, tacky, no wonder the poorly educated loved this tripe

  429. [..YouTube..] wow man… you’re getting a lil serious it’s just a movie after all…

  430. [..YouTube..] hmm, looks like a pretty good movie.

  431. [..YouTube..] looks kinda scary

  432. [..YouTube..] He shoves a mace in the back of a guy’s skull…

  433. [..YouTube..] This is one of my favourite old movies.

    Great tune as well.

  434. [..YouTube..] Snake reminds me of Werner from Fallout 3

  435. [..YouTube..] GREAT MOVIE. And did you hear about the REMAKE?? It better be good! That means, hardcore, good action, no hollywood bullshit, and NO RAP keep the metal alive with action.

  436. [..YouTube..] They don’t make them like this anymore. Trailers today are so cookie-cutter, you’d think they were all made by the same person.

  437. [..YouTube..] I love this movie. Remake? Bad idea IMO. I’d much rather see an Escape from New York video game! It worked for Scarface and Ghostbusters. If done right, it could be a great experience. Im sure Russel would be happy to jump back in and supply his voice to one of his most badass roles ever.

  438. [..YouTube..] noooo it did not work for scarface

  439. [..YouTube..] i swear to god snake from metal gear solid was designed around snake in this movie =’]

  440. [..YouTube..] Escape from New York + Rambo+ Spaghetti western = Metal Gear

  441. [..YouTube..] Great trailer, this would have gotten me into the theatre.

  442. [..YouTube..] Just saw Escape from L.A. yesterday. Immediately afterwards, I bought both EfNY and EfLA off the internet.

    @KillerAMan99: Ummm…he was, actually.  You didn’t know that? Solid Snake’s name does come from Snake Plissken, as does Solid Snake’s disguise in Metal Gear Solid 2…Iroquois Plisken. So yeah, Solid Snake was inspired by Snake Plissken. Kojima even said so, I believe, not that it isn’t obvious already.

  443. [..YouTube..] Now, ain’t that the truth.

  444. [..YouTube..] high 5 man!!

  445. [..YouTube..] yeah,but this guy was the inspiration of MGS

  446. [..YouTube..] classic,Kurt rusell kicked some serious ass as snake,R.I.P. Isaac hayes n donald pleaseance,plus the sequel’s awesome,I’m glad JC directed both of them.

  447. [..YouTube..] oh yeah I forgot,Ernest borgnine was great in this movie too.

  448. [..YouTube..] lol

  449. [..YouTube..] OMG!!!! will 1997 really be like that?

  450. [..YouTube..] Time travel 12 years ago and you tell us

  451. [..YouTube..] Gotta love those 80’s movies about the future. This one and The Running man are some of my top favorates

  452. [..YouTube..] Wow, not much different from New York today, huh?

  453. [..YouTube..] Is New York today that bad? LOL!

  454. [..YouTube..] No better team then John carpenter and kurt russel. The Thing, Big Trouble in little china, and the escape movies are all in my top 10.

  455. [..YouTube..] lol in terminator they thought that in 2015 they would be laser guns.

  456. [..YouTube..] Where’s Mei Ling?

  457. [..YouTube..] YOU’RE THE DUKE!
    YOU’RE A NUMBER 1!

  458. [..YouTube..] im pretty sure they just made a movie and threw out some random far away date

  459. [..YouTube..] Sorry :p
    That’s Snake Plissken, not Solid Snake. And there’s no Mei Ling.

  460. [..YouTube..] that’s not solid snake mates , Big Boss !!!!!

  461. [..YouTube..] Naomi, I’m Going IN!!!!

  462. [..YouTube..] just call me snake !

  463. [..YouTube..] they also thought the end of the world would be in august 1999 lol

  464. [..YouTube..] best film eva, Kurt Russel is the boss!!

  465. [..YouTube..] you are the duke a no1. best film ever.

  466. [..YouTube..] Playing with myself, I’m going in.

  467. [..YouTube..] i love this movie i think this is a great classic movie but i don`t get with some people been complaining about it and ask to make a remake of this movie come on leave it alone.why don`t make a prequal or another sequal about old snake plissken in action

  468. [..YouTube..] I have a slightly unrelated question: Where did you find this trailer?

  469. [..YouTube..] I’d say he “was”

  470. [..YouTube..] lol, america is not far from being like this

  471. [..YouTube..] The movie itself is a classic, but the trailers I’ve seen are terrible. It’s plain to see that the art of movie trailer production has come a long way.

  472. [..YouTube..] Classic film, Plissken`s a badass but I bet he`s scared of his mum.

  473. [..YouTube..] yep america’s future

  474. [..YouTube..] I knew that crime in new york was bad but not that bad.

  475. [..YouTube..] 0:56-0:58reminded me El Chapulin Colorado jajaja lol

  476. [..YouTube..] solid snake much? lol

  477. [..YouTube..] lol I know Hideo Kojima not quiet the genius we give him credit for

  478. [..YouTube..] want another movie

  479. [..YouTube..] i agree with u, kojima admitted himself that he copied the games character from this movie.

  480. [..YouTube..] loved this movie!!!

    80’s classic!

  481. [..YouTube..] I love this and Escape from L.A. too. I wish they would make another one. I love the character Snake and the political commentaries in both films. Not that far fetched when you think about it.

  482. [..YouTube..] lol no Naked snake. or Big Boss. see the eye patch? :D

  483. [..YouTube..] i wouldn’t say copy. it was more of an inspiration. but still… no does it like curt.

  484. [..YouTube..] u know the cover art for the first metal gear was just an edited pic of Kyle Reese from The Terminator.

  485. [..YouTube..] Yeah I know, I wondering what if they brought Kurt Russell in to do the voice once instead of david hayter

  486. [..YouTube..] youll like metal gear solid

  487. [..YouTube..] hes inspired like that game he did thats like body snatchers/bladerunner hes like everyone else he does what i do i take a little piece of somethin and add it to my idea then make it something completely different so it can stand on its own

  488. [..YouTube..] is there a film with snake b4 this, cause it looks like when u watch the film, (Cleveland)

  489. [..YouTube..] believe it or not !!!1 There is a remake in the works . They should set up movie theaters called Remake Cinema .

  490. [..YouTube..] “Plisken… what are you doing?!?”
    “Playing with myself… I’m going in”.
    This movie is a classic. Just watched it and is still good. The remake will probably suck. We’ll see…

  491. [..YouTube..] Snake Plissken. The man who badassed everything and everyone in the movie.

  492. [..YouTube..] 1:23 for some reason i thought for a second he was going to say “blow your f…cking mind!”

  493. [..YouTube..] iv got my boyfriends massive cock in my mouth as i type.
    now i enjoyed this movie realy fun to watch.

  494. [..YouTube..] iv got my boyfriends massive cock in my mouth as i type.
    now i enjoyed this movie realy fun to watch.

  495. [..YouTube..] loll this looks so ghey

  496. [..YouTube..] Fuck you.Rusell is my cousin…see you soon fag boy…….

  497. [..YouTube..] another absolute classic from john carpenter, music too

  498. [..YouTube..] fag

  499. [..YouTube..] awesome movie

  500. [..YouTube..] Many people say Escape from LA sucked (which I think is good) but wait until they see the Escape from NY remake

  501. [..YouTube..] when is the remake cumming out? can’t wait.

  502. [..YouTube..] ESCAPE FROM L.A. was better then this one, in my oppinion,,, i think its dumb to remake this movie tho, they should just do another sequel and bring back kurt as snake ,

  503. [..YouTube..] damn creepy 9/11 twin plane crashes?
