WARNING: SPOILERS. HAPPENING. BELOW. DON'T READ IT IF YOU DON'T ALREADY KNOW.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escape_from_L.A.
The length of the upload I'm watching is 1:40:39 and starts with the Paramount opening logo.
I actually watched Escape From New York (1981) not that long ago, and it was pretty good. I had no idea there was a sequel until tonight.
I was a touch bored tonight, so I was actually kind of excited to find this movie! Obviously Kurt Russell is always good for eye candy no matter what, so there's really no way to lose with this film choice.
0:40 definitely a sort of seizure inducing opening credits here.
Pam Grier is in this movie, that's kind of amazing... I remember reading in the reviews I glanced over that this movie has a really great cast.
2:35 "The United States Police Force is formed"... wow man. They really do just tell you exactly what their fucking plans are in these hollyweird movies don't they. Apparently an earthquake will "destroy L.A. in divine retribution"... lol.
3:33 lol oh shit, SO DOOMY THOUGH!!!
3:45 I also read a review claiming the CGI wasn't all that great but... TBH I'm kind of impressed. It isn't cringey or anything.
3:55 a lifetime presidential office, lol.
4:30 it's an interesting premise.
4:55 lol it's supposed to take place in 2013?!? Wow, how have I never heard of this movie?? Just crazy.
7:10 God what a sexy motherfucker.
7:20 check out that worn out leather jacket... I'm wholly digging the aesthetic. Like, who WOULDN'T wanna be that guy??
7:28 "He just looks so retro"... ROFL!!!!!!!!!!! Ah yeah. I like this movie already.
9:56 so far I think they did a great job with this movie.
I also remember a review saying that the first movie was better, but I can easily see this one being better than the first.
11:30 this VR scene was well done, pretty trippy! I mean, yeah it's a simple effect to achieve, but it was still well done, it was a great concept.
15:15 "Designer viruses, wave of the future"... lmao. And this shit was 24 years ago. Still scraping the bottom of the barrel here in 2020. Tsk.
16:25 "You better hope I don't make it back"... he always says that though, lol. He never does anything to them.
18:00 lol man oh man... I wonder what it must be like to be THAT sexy.
18:30 I like the outfit.
19:10 "How am I goin' in??" RRRRAAAWWWWW, BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
19:50 lol he's supposed to knock her off?! Damn!!!
20:30 gah, he looks so great. This movie is already better than the first one.
20:50 kinda bullshit that they only gave him 8 hours... didn't he have like 21 hours or something in the first movie??
21:50 he's flying underwater. Wow this is pretty badass... California fell off into the ocean lol! Well, I guess this is where that whole idea came from or something.
22:45 okay, this is kind of dumb. What exactly was his logic behind flying in like this?? Seems kinda ridiculous. I don't really get it.
23:35 oh come on, what the fuck is this shit?
24:25 "Just passin' through"... rofl, okay, this movie is funny. It's cute. It's definitely good.
24:42 Mulholland Dr. lmao!!!
Facepalm, the symbolism. And this is where you realize how bizarre the plot really is.
25:40 lol I'm legit engrossed in this movie.
26:45 it's the greatest post-apocalyptic portrayal of L.A. ever lol, you gotta give it that.
27:10 this is a pretty hot scene what with all the 'futuristic' hookers.
27:30 look there's like a chick passed out on the stairs, LMAO... wow. This movie though!!!
29:10 the style in this movie is fabulous.
30:34 this is the tackiest looking shit ever, but at least there's a disco ball. Still better than the first movie.
31:35 this motorcycle scene is a bit boring.
32:04 lol he wouldn't recognize him from that far away. It's sorta corny but it's still great.
33:13 well that's a unique weapon, I actually really like it.
35:45 see I have issue with this aspect of the plot. Why the fuck would they give him an illness and diminish his effectiveness on the entire mission? It's so fucking dumb and I do feel as though they should have gone with another approach. The method from the first movie was better.
37:40 he's literally being a NON-sucker... so that line was stupid. Not a huge fan of Steve Buscemi due to his disease laden politics.
38:47 "Ah, shit"... ROFL, THAT MOMENT when you realize.
40:00 woooow, this whole scene really is a statement... huge statement and poking fun at the superficiality of hollywank culture.
40:40 this is probably what they really do, too.
This is actually kind of an important movie. It's nowhere near the statement that a movie like "They Live" was... but it's good.
42:35 it's kinda dumb he didn't kill that guy, he should have.
44:00 I like that this chick has an accent... it's a good accent.
45:20 she's smart to try and get some of that dick though.
45:40 "The future is right now"... hell yeah dude, he gave her a gun!!! That's hotter than sex coming from Snake!!!
46:30 he's so subtly nice and romantic to this chick, it kinda turns me on.
47:30 well, I mean, those were some good feelings and that was some positive talk, so really, it could have been worse.
51:00 you know this shit is totally real too.
51:30 what's the meaning of the cactus plants sitting around in the command room? https://ageoflapin.com/plants/cactus-thrive-and-survive https://treesymbolism.com/cactus-plant-meaning.html
59:30 basketball? Really? Lol :)
1:01:56 this chick is super hot, love the outfit.
1:05:40 LOL @ the music... see, this movie has a great sense of humor.
1:06:55 I like this surfer guy.
1:07:35 now he's FUCKEN SURFING!????!?!?!?!?!?!?! Bawahahahawahawhahwahhaha.
I love it.
1:08:08 bwahahahaha OMG this is hilarious.
1:08:20 it's SUPPOSED to be ridiculous, and that makes it great.
It's not supposed to be serious, it's only supposed to be beautiful. And it is.
1:08:43 I like that candy apple red steering wheel.
1:12:00 Pam fuckin' Grier.
1:27:00 wow... what a hero <3
1:32:55 holy shit. Didn't see that one coming... just amazing.
Great movie, 8/10 stars.
