"Bill Burr on a message from someone telling him well-known trivia."
It's up there with "Conan wrote the monorail episode". Jesus, really?
I watched Escape from New York (1981) last year for the first time and I thought it was an amazing Sci-Fi movie with a deep political story and themes throughout the film and a great performance from the legendary Kurt Russell.
I also watched another Sci-Fi film last year called Paprika from Satoshi Kon and that is also an amazing Sci-Fi movie that I highly recommend to anyone who is a fan of the genre.
One of my favorites
Bill Burr, Kurt Russell and John Carpenter... 3 of my favorite people.
its actually EAST St Louis, which still looks like the locations in the film
Does it really?
@@dominysynclairYeah, it's well known by us midwesterners that you stay the fuck away from east st Louis, lol.
They might have filmed part of it in East St. Louis, but The Duke’s hideout is Union Station in St. Louis proper.
Majority was filmed downtown STL
Actually it still looks and feels like New York even though it’s East St Louis
My best friend in the 80's used to think they tattooed a question mark on pliskin while he was passed out before his big fight. as kids we never connected that his name was "snake" with the tattoo
I remember getting lost in St Louis in the late 90s trying to get back to Kansas from a Misfits show at Mississippi Nights club. It seemed like miles and miles of abandoned everything. At least the gunfire was not directed to our caravan. GREAT SHOW though. No Danzig, but what can you do
must’ve been on the east side
The movie that literally influenced every director and aspiring filmmaker after its release.

@@davidrose647 the name’s plissken
And games. Look at Batman: Arkham City.
Best ever.
Great movie just rewatched it a few weeks back
Without it we wouldn't have metal gear
Did Bill Burr say something ? I was too busy looking at Adrienne Barbeau !!!
Yeah, and St Louis still looks like that today.....
The longest year I ever spent anywhere was the day I spent in St. Louis.
Good movie
It's so fucking good
Dystopian future, meaning the present, meaning now 👍👍
Where’s the link he mentions?
Before Rick Grimes. There was Snake pilssken
Escape from New York is a dystopic Sci fi action film
generally in the vein of the post-apocalyptic film trend of the 70s.
Carpenter's film is generally a fairly lean actioner at times.
It's a typical "mission" type of a film: a protagonist with skills is given a get out of jail free card if he is successful within a rigid time frame.
Here the dystopia is limited to Manhattan and Snake Plisken gets injected thus giving him a personal stake in rescuing the President.
It's rather basic fill in the blanks screenwriting but the direction by Carpenter is crisp and effective and the performances by Kurt Russell a n d Harry Dean Stanton among others believable enough.
A solid action film.
It says a lot about Carpenter's ideologies/politics at the time. The whole "f**k the government and private corporations" attitude a lot of people had in the 70s and 80s.
@@edwardhannah8507 and it's an attitude that was handed to the feeble-minded masses by the similarly feeble-minded ronald reagan in the US, and by thatcher in the UK
It should be a classic just for the views of Adrienne Barbeau. 😏😳
FACTS
Escape from Earth PLEASE!
John Carpenter took some of the plot points of Escape from Earth and used them in his 2001 movie Ghosts of Mars.
"Get a new President..."
President of what?
I guess the one that was going to perish in the inhuman dungeon of his own imperialist prison...
This movie in no way shape or form has held up.
Awful take. Keep your trash opinions to yourself.
Strongly disagree, this film along with Road Warrior and Blade Runner has held up extremely well.
It could have been Dubai. Can't blame the president, he gave them every opportunity, the Duke Ace number one just turned it into an open house prison.
Man, what’s with the Bill Burr kick? C’mon, man… let’s see what kind of opinion Paulie Shore has! 😉😎
He’s still out there weazing on his grindage, somewhere.
Sweating to the oldies now
It's funny that people call it an action film because there's very little action in it.
It's a solid barebones film that still holds up.
A lot of action for a 1981 sci-fi flick.
And still one of Carpenter's/Russell's best films.
More of an espionage film, Assault on Precinct 13 was more in the action vein.
So you make it count when the time for action comes. And that's what Carpenter does. And this is closer to a Western than to Sci-Fi. I never understood why it was stuck with the "Sci-Fi" tag. Nothing Science Fiction about it. But I do love this film as well as most of Carpenter's films. I even enjoyed a few parts of Ghosts of Mars. A few parts.
That chick’s can distracted me the entire movie
I hated the movie because it’s so silly! 🤣
I always say someone needs to remake that movie and do the story seriously.
This movie is perfect
No
Maybe a Ryan Reynolds remake in Toronto?
