This week on Radio Labyrinth, we're escaping into remake hell as Zack Snyder is officially attached to write and direct a new reimagining of John Carpenter's 1981 cult classic Escape From New York. Snake Plissken is back on Hollywood's remake board, and we're asking the obvious question: does this need to happen, or should some movies be left alone?We also talk about the reported retirement of Clint Eastwood, look back at our favorite Eastwood films, react to Euphoria officially ending after Season 3, and discuss the new Birds limited series with Sarah Snook. Plus, we try to help Frylock avoid homelessness.Then it's time for Trailer Trash, Views or Snooze, and Staff Picks, including Cape Fear on Apple TV, The Vampire Lestat on AMC, Alice & Steve on Hulu, and Dustin's pick: the 4K release of Heathers.Welcome back to the Labyrinth.Watch the YouTube Show: https://youtu.be/QS3Lmj33VFQKeep It Canon.(Carey Means Go Fund Me more than tripled their goal so they have concluded it, Good Deal)▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀Hosts: Tim Andrews, Jeff Leiboff, Dustin Lollar and Lizzie Bruce JonesAudio Podcast & YouTube Video Edited by Dustin Lollar ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀

BACKROOMS und OBSESSION mischen gerade alles auf. Die Kinokassen, das Netz, das ganze Studio-System in Hollywood. Das müssen wir natürlich diskutieren. So wie eine ganze Menge andere NEWS, die mehr oder weniger an dem Thema dran hängen. Zum Beispiel die immer mehr werdenden Befürworter zur Causa KI wie eben jüngst Martin Scorsese oder Roland Emmerich, der stille Abgang von Clint Eastwood oder allerlei Gerüchte, die sich um MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, noch mal BACKROOMS und auch Quentin Tarantino drehen, gefolgt von einem kurzen Ausblick auf Zack Snyders Remake von ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK aka DIE KLAPPERSCHLANGE und einer etwas längeren Phase, in der es um den Deutschen Filmpreis geht. Also genauer gesagt um IN DIE SONNE SCHAUEN, den großen Gewinner des Abends, und der anschließenden Debatte um Wim Wenders, der mehrfach von Nastassja Kinski gebeten wurde, eine Szene mit ihr aus einem seiner Filme zu entfernen. Alles weitere dazu in der Folge, in der dann auch noch Titel wie HOKUM, TOY STORY 1-3, OFF CAMPUS; OLD HENRY oder MAI 1943 - DIE ZERSTÖRUNG DER TALSPERREN besprochen werden und Daniel es schafft, einen kleinen Diskurs zum Thema Männernippel anzuregen.

Big Dumb Podcast S1E19 Recap: This week we caught up on our real-life chaos, ranted about what we've been streaming (The Four Seasons, The Madison, and Your Friends & Neighbors), then dove into the wild headlines: a teenage barrel racer arrested for allegedly stabbing three horses in Vegas, the survey showing folks start choosing sleep over socializing at age 32, most Americans meh on the 2026 World Cup, Zack Snyder remaking Escape From New York, the epic Minor League moniker bracket madness, that viral NBA 82-0 starting-five challenge, and the South Carolina detective who pulled a gun over someone microwaving fish. Absolute chaos as usual—come laugh with us!
Horror has always managed to do well at the box office. The way of thinking has always been since the movies are so cheap to make, it is easy to profit of of them. This year has been especially good, with indie horror doing a lot of the heavy lifting. It is clear there is a lesson to learn from this, but will Hollywood learn the right one. (Spoiler alert: no.) Zack Snyder is one of the most polarizing directors around today. That takes in a lot of territory since pretty much everything fits that description nowadays. We talk about his latest project and why we are interested in it. Does this make us Snyderbros? Chum does not reinvent the wheel, but it does not have to. It is a simple revenge story filled with some of the best shark attacks we have ever seen on this show. We talk about the use of AI and how less can sometimes be more. A great sharksploitation movie is more than just a kick ass shark, however. It is not a question of how poor the writing in Chum is; the question is does it ruin all the good the rest of the movie does.

God of War Returns, and Wolverine is set for September. But so is every other game apparently. So while we all wait for GTA VI, we can now also wait even longer for Fable. Steam may have been hiding in plain sight as a villain all along, we now look to Lord Gaben for guidance. Spider-Noir is more Groucho than Cagney, but it might work in its favor. And Call of Duty is bringing us to East Asia.

We're ssssssssneakin' up on you with our next adventure in Mayhem and there's more where that snake comes from! This time we're sssssservin' up Kurt Russell's lazy eye, gigantic presidential fingers, a familiar hobo, surprise Salt N' Pepa, copper choppers, posse's on Broadway and LIMPS NACK! Oh you thought we were dead?! Grab a chair, have a rest have a think and don't Pisskins - come along with us as we Escape From New York, this time on Doom Generation.
Call me Snake. Okay, well, that's too cool for me, so just make it Ryan. Either way, this 739th episode gets into the night life and action frenzy that is John Carpenter's Escape From New York. Kurt Russell was already establishing himself as something more than just a Disney kid, then his signature role here cemented it. The eclectic Van Cleef/Borgnine/Harry Dean supporting cast surrounding Russell is effective, but the production design, cinematography, music and other technicals in this dystopian sci-fi bleakness are the drawing card. Carpenter was cynical, yet so underrated in his time...even compared to a top-of-his-game Spielberg in that same era. Now, is Escape From New York funny? Maybe not (partly since it feels like this could actually happen), but it IS fun. So, even though everybody thinks you're dead, burst into the open-air prison that is Manhattan and save the president and his precious cassette tape. Cuz the name's Ellis.

In anticipation of the theatrical re-release of Top Gun later this week, this 738th episode has me yapping about Tony Scott's blockbuster that put him on the map and made Tom Cruise a megastar. The one about cocky naval aviators is big, loud and very sweaty. You've got sleek jets, cool, sexy men (and also SOME women like Kelly McGillis)...and a killer soundtrack. The fly boys (including Val Kilmer & Anthony Edwards) also play topless volleyball and spend a lot of time in towels. Naturally, the megahit sequel Top Gun: Maverick came up a lot in this review, since it played off the themes of rebellion, adrenaline and guilt the way that the original did. So caress your plaque that says you won a contest and put on your aviator glasses with a big smile on your face as I feel a certain need for a certain velocity while speaking about Tommy And The Jets. NOTE: a breakdown of all the Oscar nominations in Tony Scott's entire filmography will be the "So I Got Thinkin'" segment in Friday's episode about Escape From New York. Also, during the Coming Attractions Trivia question for that, it should have been Kurt Russell sometimes did "impressions" of other actors, not "inspirations." Help boost this show by spreading propaganda about it like Top Gun did for the navy. You can rate it 5 stars, review it with heaping doses of praise and you can certainly add to my subscription numbers.

In a dystopian 1997, a soldier-turned-bankrobber is taked rescuing the US President after he crashes into Manhattan, which has been turned into a giant maximum security prison. That's the official description for this gritty, sci-fi action thriller but a couple of key players involved made it more special than that. The solider is Snake Plissken played by Kurt Russell (The Thing, Tombstone, The Hateful Eight) in one of his more iconic performances. The director is genre master John Carpenter (Halloween, The Thing, They Live) who inadverdently created a sub-genre with the success of this film forty-five years ago. And the rest of this film's stellar supporting cast includes Lee Van Cleef, Ernest Borgnine, Donald Pleasance, Isaac Hayes, Harry Dean Stanton, and Adrienne Barbeau. See below for a link featuring a key deleted scene of this film which is highlighted within this review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riSBMj1oLGc&t=20sHost & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Paul and Shawn are back, so it has to be time for another discussion of the films of John Carpenter. This time, the pair take on a real Carpenter classic along with the only sequel Carpenter ever directed: Escape from New York and Escape from L.A. As he loves to do, perverse Paul defends L.A. as, well, not terrible - especially in the new 4k remaster. Shawn kinda disagrees, which makes for some really fun discussion.

Let's sneak into Escape from New York, John Carpenter's cult classic that blends dystopian sci-fi with gritty action. Set in a future where Manhattan has become a maximum-security prison, the film delivers an unforgettable premise, a killer atmosphere, and one of cinema's coolest anti-heroes in Snake Plissken.That said… this one didn't quite hit the same highs as Carpenter's other work from the era. While the concept is undeniably strong and there's a certain cheesy charm that makes it fun to watch, the execution feels uneven. The performances often come across as flat, with characters that never fully come to life. The villain lacks real presence, and the President—despite being central to the plot—feels surprisingly underwhelming.There's still plenty to appreciate here, especially if you enjoy Carpenter's style and low-budget creativity. But compared to his other films from this time, Escape from New York feels more like a rough draft of something greater than a fully realized classic. A fun ride, but one that leaves you wishing for a bit more depth and impact.Stick around until the end of the conversation for a round of Snake Trivia!Safe travels, nomads.
Send a textEpisode 256 of the Hey You Guys Podcast is here, and this week, Liam and Rob take a long overdue back at John Carpenter's, 1981 politically charged, sci-fi action movie, Escape from New York....well, I say action movie, but honestly, the action here is both limited, and for the most part, not all that great. That's just fine though, because when you have visuals like this, an unforgettable score and a truly exceptional cast, you can kinda get away with it. Oh, and did we mention that it's also home to arguably the coolest character in cinema history? Sure, his hair is luxurious to a fault, his firearm is truly ludicrous and his vest is almost certainly made of lycra, but somehow (perhaps it's the eyepatch), Kurt Russel pulls it off and delivers one of the most iconic performances of the 80s.
Adrienne Barbeau joins Steve Kmetko for a candid and entertaining conversation about a career that has spanned Broadway, television, cult films, and animation. Long before becoming a horror icon, Adrienne Barbeau first gained national attention playing Carol Traynor on the groundbreaking sitcom Maude opposite the legendary Bea Arthur. From there she built a career that moved effortlessly between stage, television, and film, appearing in classics like The Fog, Escape From New York, Creepshow, and Swamp Thing. She also became the unforgettable voice of Catwoman in Batman: The Animated Series, a role that continues to resonate with fans decades later. In this episode, Adrienne looks back at her early days performing for U.S. troops overseas for just seven dollars a day, her Broadway run in Fiddler on the Roof alongside Bette Midler, and what she learned working with Bea Arthur on one of television's most influential sitcoms. She shares behind the scenes stories about working with directors like John Carpenter and George Romero, explains how she accidentally became a horror movie legend, and reveals why she never saw herself as the “bombshell” many fans remember from films like Cannonball Run. Adrienne also talks about aging in Hollywood, why she has avoided cosmetic procedures, the surprising fan encounters that still happen at conventions, and how her children keep her grounded after decades in the spotlight. It's a funny, insightful look at a remarkable career that continues to evolve more than sixty years after her first professional job. This is Still Here Hollywood. I'm Steve Kmetko.

It was a futuristic film about the protagonist trying to get out of the big metropolis in less than 24 hours. In the NFL during the 1970s, there were plenty of protagonists who were trying to do the same thing, albeit in a slightly longer time than just 24 hours. But be it the New York Giants, the New York Jets, or the Buffalo Bills, there turned out to be quite a few pro football players who found a way out of the Empire State to what they felt were greener pastures.There were quite a few Hall of Famers who left their New York teams and went to other NFL teams during the 1970s, with mixed results...... Read the entire episode blog post and check out some other cool info regarding this episode here.PRO FOOTBALL IN THE 1970S BACKGROUNDReliving Gridiron Glory: Pro Football in the 1970s with Joe ZagorskiProfessional football is one of the most exciting spectator sports in America. The decade of the 1970s saw the sport grow by leaps and bounds, thanks mostly to exciting players who quickly became icons. NFL players such as Joe Namath, Roger Staubach, O.J.Simpson, Terry Bradshaw, “Mean” Joe Greene and Fran Tarkenton are still considered household names today.During the 1970s, the growing millions of pro football fans also witnessed numerous exciting games and plays, many of which are still remembered and discussed today. Plays like Franco Harris' Immaculate Reception in 1972, or the original Hail Mary Pass in 1975, or the Sea of Hands game in 1974, or the Ghost to the Post game in 1977…so many memories, and all during one of the greatest decades in NFL history.Joe Zagorski's Pro Football in the 1970s podcast explores all the great memories that occurred in the NFL during that memorable decade. Each segment will tackle a specific event or player in the NFL during the 1970s. Each episode will also include a trivia question from some aspect of that particular episode's theme or topic. Joe Zagorski's Pro Football in the 1970s podcast takes listeners back to a time of old school pro football, where the game might have been simpler in the form of strategy, but it was also more pure and more robust than it had ever been before. Practically everything that happened during that decade on pro gridirons gets attention in this podcast.

In this episode of the show we are putting a bow on the February jaunt through 80s sci-fi dystopias with a John Carpenter double-header of Escape from New York and They Live. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about Carpenter's love of westerns distilling into Escape, how Kurt Russell loved the character of Snake Plissken and based his performance on Clint Eastwood and how the movie has a scrappy feel of a prescient dystopia that took effort to create. We also talk about They Live and how its messaging has been thoroughly vindicated since its release, Roddy Piper as a stand-in for Kurt Russell, retro-futuristic production design of the world seen through the iconic sunglasses and much more!Tune in and enjoy!Hosts: Jakub Flasz & Randy BurrowsFeaturing: Campbell BurrowsHead over to uncutgemspodcast.com to find all of our archival episodes and more!Follow us on Twitter (@UncutGemsPod), IG (@UncutGemsPod) and Facebook (@UncutGemsPod)Buy us a coffee over at Ko-Fi.com (ko-fi.com/uncutgemspod)Subscribe to our Patreon!
