Love how Kojima admitted to pulling direct references and inspiration for Big Boss/Solid Snake from Escape From New York and LA's "Snake" Plissken. And that alone just makes this character so mysterious, and far more interesting. Say what you will about these movies being janky and corny...it's intentional, and it's just a frickin' blast.....truly a movie from another era.

@black10872 Жыл бұрын

Yup! I caught on to the inspiration way back when the game came out in the 90s! The Solid Snake acted, the way he talked, I said to myself; "Wait a minute.... Solid Snake.... Kurt Russell... SNAKE PLISSKEN!!! lol. You got to be an early 80s or 70s baby to catch the similarities. Millenials, and Gen Z will not get the reference. I wished Snake Plissken character was seen more on the silver screen. I don't think know any other actor that can pull off Snake Plissken like Kurt Russell. If they restart the ESCAPE FROM NY again, they will most likely cast a female as Snake Plissken. I will NOT watch it!

I think as he said " The America I fought for died a long time ago.” If you look at the context of the movie it’s true. If you see the beginning of the movie President declares a lifelong term. President can only have two terms…also it didn’t go before legislation did it? Probably not now later in the movie you see them on a your life going to LA. There’s no jury no defense so there is no 14th Amendment on not taking a persons life liberty or property without the right to due process. The next one a lady thrown in LA because she was Muslim so much for the First Amendment. Finally the guy saying no guns so no Second Amendment. So to sum up you got a dictator with a serious I am god complex.

As a film it’s scraping past OK for me, but as an experience it’s a good time, nowhere near the level of the original on either counts though, but then that was always going to be tough!

Or better yet, Escape From Miami, where most of Miami-Dade County becomes a prison after breaking off from Florida from a hurricane, and his grandson, Snake the Third goes there to rescue the VPOTUS, under orders from the President. Some parts of the world will have gotten it's function back by then.

This is an interesting idea...perhaps they undid the EMP pulse damage somewhat, and so probably would take about 20-30 years to recover. And make it some ultimate Climate Change monstrosity that needs to be taken down so Snake saves us from ourselves. Perhaps the people are trying escape Earth, after wrecking it. Ultimately, Snake is about saving Earth.

One of the best endings to any movie ever and my dad and I both love Kurt Russell. 16 years since New York and he hasn’t aged a day 😂 thank you John carpenter and Kurt Russell for your contributions to cinema/film.

@papennypincher7287 2 жыл бұрын

My favorite movie!!! This is a true masterpiece. I get that a lot of people hate this movie but I never understood why. It’s very clever. In the beginning, I absolutely love that he’s wearing the exact same clothes from the first movie, like he hasn’t changed, the world has. Carpenter makes a film that is a sequel that is totally parallel with the prior one until the very end, at this time the movie makes a sudden turn in a different direction where snake gets revenge on the people who screwed him over with a double switcheroo and at the same time, in many ways, probably saves humanity in the long run by forcing them to start over and hopefully get it right this time. Then throw in the L.A. culture nods of basketball and surfing like he did in NY with the baseball culture nod. it’s completely underrated on like every level. Amazing movie and one of russels best performances. If your a fan of the first one and of the legend snake plissken, this should be up on your list. It’s a love letter to the first film and a continuation to one of the greatest sci-fi characters of all time.

My thoughts exactly. Especially when the character was labeling all the things that are banned. Even though these things are not illegal in today's world, they'll still be some sort of consequence. "No foul language". For example, social media and KZfaq quick to remove comments just for bad language. If I typed "f*cking @sshole" in this comment (without the * and @), I would get a pop-up asking me to edit my comment. It's stupid.
