618. Directorpiece Theatre - How to Shoot a Cheap Apocalypse (Escape from New York)
🕑 Added 2023-08-14 13:01:01 +0000 UTC
Adam and Abe talk about how Carpenter’s Escape from New York was an insanely run production. They talk about the shoestring budget, ways the filmmakers kept the costs low, and how Metal Gear Solid is just a rip off of this character. Abe’s love for John Carpenter remains uncontained and we’re all a bit worried about him.

I'm such a giant nerd that after listening to this, I started trying to re-create the movie in Grand Theft Auto 5... https://youtu.be/OpJ9nvk6rag

According to John Carpenter the studio wanted to sue Hideo Kojima but he talked them out of it since he knew Kojima and thought he was a nice guy.

It's interesting to hear y'all tell us about the tricks and the affect the tricks have on us as an audience.
