FILM DESCRIPTION:
In 2013, the United States president (Cliff Robertson) is exiling all citizens who don't conform to his hyper-conservative views to Los Angeles, which became an island after a huge earthquake. But, when the president's daughter nabs the detonator to her dad's apocalyptic weapon and sneaks into L.A. to be with the rebel leader she loves, the government taps commando-turned-crook Snake Plissken (Kurt Russell) to retrieve the young woman. And, if he doesn't succeed quickly, he'll be executed.

Didn't really help his case that he was moving in slow motion while everyone was counting in regular motion
TheKingOfDale lol
Lmao!! True that
No, that's what happens when your life is in serious danger. Everything slows down. Your limbs aren't exactly heavy, yet it's frustrating that you cannot make them move faster. Physics is strangely dilated. The end result is you have extra time to think & plan how to survive.
Jianju69 That is completely false. Time pass equally fast for everybody in this scene.
@@Jianju69 how to say something really dumb in a really smart way
They didn't take into account his superior depth perception.
One eye will grant that much desired ability...
His third eye is activated
...remarkable depth perception for just one eye...
conni truly
Dude you killing me!
Why the lakers never drafted snake is beyond me
😂
😂🤣
Lohan Cindy snake 3 pointer pisken,nothing but net😆🐍🏀
Lol
His number would have to be 11
Double ones,snake eyes
NBA take note: Leather pants, leather gloves, leather vest, leather eye patch, Steve Buscemi.
Well, Steve Buscemi is basically made of leather, so, yeah.
The leatherclub is 2 blocks down
I totally forgot that Steve Buscemi is in this movie.
@Jack McLean Agreed
...what about the boots?
People in hollywood did too much cocaine in the 90's.
still made better art than we have now
Columbia, send Hollywood some more cocaine please.
Back in the 90s... I was on a famous TV shooooooow....
But at least they weren't all hypocritical, woke fucktards with no spines or brains.
Then by the looks of it they aint doin enough now..
*And that is why Kurt Russel is my favorite NBA Player*
If consistent, he would absolutely wipe the floor with any NBA player.
@@rawdeale Snake Curry
I mean with his longshots. Absolutely
but he only played a few seasons inside the nba
It would be a brave referee who would call Snake Plissken for a foul.
Just chilling at work, checks TH-cam recommendations, *Basketball to the Death from 1996?* .... Yes.
Why you playing vids in youtube if you're working?
Lol
@@kimiantumblod7654 Because he's smart and he got a job where he can do that
Ahhh.. it seems we share the same fate my friend
😂😂😂
Should've included the best part where the crowd starts cheering for Snake and Buscemi's character says: "This town loves a winner."
They should have had Rob Schneider yelling you can do it!
Then how do you explain the LA Lakers, the LA Chargers, and the LA Kings
@@pontiacGXPfan They love a winner, because they have to live with so many losers?
exactly this was badly cut that is the whole point of the clip surely?
Kurt Russell practiced playing basketball between scenes as he wanted to make all of his shots legitimately in the basketball scene later on. He made all of those shots purely on his own talent, even the full-court one.
I think he was also a varsity basketball player in high school. He has legitimate skills.
That can’t possibly be true. They wouldn’t waste hours of shooting waiting for him to hit a full court shot when it’s so easy to fake it.
@@AntLeonardi01 He had practiced it, still took him 30 attempts, he kept telling the director to re-shoot it.
What makes it even more impressive, if true, is that he's wearing an eye-patch which would remove his 3D depth perception.
@@Hunty49 Using one eye instead of two doesn't make it more difficult.... think about a military sniper.
He made every single one of these shots without CGI
even the last one ?
@@brajeshsingh2391 yes
he practiced in between scenes to make it legit
I can do it too with multiple takes
@@goldengun9970 are you also a full time actor going on 30 years?
I was an background extra this night. That last shot was one take. Dramatically, we were sent home afterwards. I figure Snake Plissken saved them tens of thousands of dollars, and walked off the court like it was a normal day.
So you didn't get paid?
Ive always wanted to be an extra in a movie because I thought they would get paid...
@@MASTEROFEVIL Background actors get paid. I’m pretty sure he is referring to not having to pay all the overtime to all the crew and background actors. Background actors get OT after 8 hours worked.
@@shadyacres0731 Oh
@@MASTEROFEVIL They would have to get paid overtime, plus I heard they were originally going to depict that shot with CG so him making the shot in reality definitely saved them a few bob.
Little known fact: this was all Kurt Russell hitting every shot, no computer trickery involved at all.
This was a one taker with different camera angles. Russel was so good! 😉👍🏻
little known fact: the basketball used in this movie is actually the great grandson of Henry the 8th.
I like how the ball disappears at 1:59
@@HereForAStorm That''s just youtube lag, it skips speeded blur frames and every other frame recorded from RTS tv's. That's why super mario looks so much different on youtube when he gets a star than when playing it on an NES.
Dunno it seems like everyone watching this video knows this little known fact.
It's Ironic after all these years after this movie came out, how many people are still trying to Escape L.A. 🤣🤣🤣
im sure they want to leave california for some hick state. whatever helps you sleep at night lol
@@zappbrannigan8352 hick state, low taxes? sounds about right, for the record you Californians ruined my state in the 90s and ruin any state you move to, if you can't leave your bad ideas behind then don't bother thinking you'll ever be welcome where you move to.
@@zappbrannigan8352 Some people enjoy paying ridiculous taxes and living in a place filled with human feces. Learn something new...everyday!
@@maybeitsyou1317 Yeah, California sucks.
@@maybeitsyou1317 except if you'd ever been here, you'd know that's not how it is.
Amazing shooting, especially from a guy with no depth perception.
& the plutoxcin 7 virus.
Just like in Captain Ron.
You do realize it was just a movie, yes? 🤣
@@OnYouGlenn you do realise it's a joke?
It's not like he has NO depth perception. The eye comes up with tricks to compensate for the loss of binocular depth perception - for example, if you have an idea of an object's relative size you can judge its distance using your experience of how far objects of that size has been from you in the past.
Fun fact. Kurt Russel actually made that final shot. They'd planned to do it with special effects, but he sunk it first go to everyone's surprise.
I don't believe you, I want to believe you, but I don't
🧐
*CITATION NEEDED*
@@springbloom5940 It's in the DVD special features in an interview. You might be able to find a clip on youtube if you search
@@arielfetters5662
Ok, usually Id tell you that you made the claim, you need to prove it. But, Im intrigued, so you've forced my hand... I must try to verify this
@@springbloom5940 watch?v=4iRy_ZWkisI The basic interview, stating he made all the shots. I need to find the one that talks specifically about the final shot tho.
Gotta admit, Snake was a cool cat.
I wish they'd made a Escape From Detroit movie..that would have rocked.
Nobody escapes from Detroit...
Detroit isn't an island.
MassiveTree & LA is??? 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
@@brooklynboogie1405 in the movie it is. And before you say, well Detroit could be an island in a movie too. Well yes, but there's no early reason it would become one, unlike LA.
Could have put him on belle isle...goes one way, he’s in the depths of the city. Goes the other way, the Canadians are waiting to get him
It makes you wonder how someone could read this is the script and say, yeah this is a great idea.
@ShockNutz lol.. maybe so, but in the present it was a stupid sequence.
it was a great idea :)
@@jordanmc9015 how old are you?
@@OfLanceTheLonginus Old enough to have seen this movie in theaters, but not the first one. lol
People don't remember it, but the early 90's were crazy in terms of ideas for movies. The craziest stuff became action films.
This scene really got me when i was a child,and still looks for me like one of a kind, completely original,silly clever and fun all at once ,there's no other scene like this on any other movie,as far as i know.
Clearly you have never seen Home Alone 2. This is basically a direct copy from that movie.
Few people know this, but they actually threatened to kill Kurt Russel for real if he missed any shots. They wanted to get "a genuine reaction" from him. The director said he was prepared to make it look like an accident. Of course, this was just a ruse and in they end they all laughed about it.
The fitness gram pacer test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues.
He’s from the grim adventures of billy and Mandy
PurpleUrkle !! It’s Hos Delgado
Lol clearly inspiration for the character I never seen this before either makes it even better
Mix with ash from evil dead
Lmao
He's from metal gear solid
“By the way, nobody’s ever walked off that court alive.” Apparently, nobody’s ever heard of dunking either LMAO
you will lost time by doing that
sure, because your average Joe has an over 30 inches vertical and is at least 6'2. Only 1% of the entire world can dunk a basket ball.
@@DMHR100 I bet it's much less than 1%
Kurt Russell played baseball all throughout his youth so it is no surprise that he retained his physicality in his middle age. I enjoyed him most in the movie Soldier, as Todd. ^_^
I did too, my favorite part is "I'm gonna kill them all"🤗
And no wonder why he still looked in great shape like he retired from baseball. 🤗
@@scottsullivan7582 Yup. ^_^
@D Hawkz ffs, he was at least 43.
Did you know that the movie Soldier took place in the same universe and roughly the same era as Bladerunner?
Kurt Russell made every shot without movie magic even the full court shot at the end!!
I remember seeing this scene as a teenager. That full court shot still gives me goosebumps. Now the surfing scene.....eh, not so much.
Aw come on, the surfing scene was hilarious
The movie is a parody of cheesy 80's and 90's action movies.
Same. But at least as an adult, I appreciate a lot of John Carpenter 's b movie prowess in s-tier topics
Best clutch player of all time!
I love how the crowd turns and looks at Cuervo after Snake makes the last shot. They’re all like: “So what happens now, Cuervo?”
Facts 💯
I like the idea of "Chance" in terms of, "If you don't do anything, you know you will lose, so try anything." Even the tiniest of possibilities makes anything worth a shot. You only know fully what will happen ONLY if you quit.
@JMFS You summed up everything I just wrote in a clear perfect short sentence. I wish I could do that.
I like your paragraph. Better than old, tired sayings
Snake was headed for NBA superstardom before he blew out his left eye.
Hahaha
snake : i can sneak into the most complicated building even with maximum security.
enemy : let this man play basketball.
me 10 y/o : it's not fair
This is the most 90's American thing I've seen in a while
Back in High School someone in my class could always make a basket across the court by throwing the basketball like Snake just did without missing which was amazing to watch
Watching Solid Snake playing basketball is surreal
This movie was extremely underrated.
No it isn't lol...
Uuuuuhm, no it isn’t
No it's a bad rehash.
@@Thunderchild-gz4gc I liked it.
@@ibramblebush That's your right. I just think it's a terrible waste. Read the Boom comics they're good.
I'd say that last shot counted as 10 points all by itself.
With the eye patch, it messes up his depth perception. Makes it even more impressive.
Nobody:
Steph Curry: this is my path
I think the most impressive part is the old man before snake who got 6 points. Are you kidding me?
The basketball courts must have been longer than the runway in Fast and Furious for him not to be able to comfortably make it from basket to basket in 10 seconds.
You have to gather the ball also after hooping it in, and that back and forth movement makes you lose time, genius.
This is actual footage of how the L.A riots started, younger people.
Is the guy in the beret supposed to be Che Guevara and the guy in the eye patch is Hoss Delgado from The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy?
With also a mix of Metal Gear Solid Snake.
you guys understand that all those characters came from snake plisken in escape new york
I really hope you aren't serious.
@@stylishwin5401 are you talking to me or the op? and happy Thanksgiving
@@devildog1989 op.
You too.
This movie is awesome and if you think its not, then shouldn't you be watching the notebook?
The inspiration for Hoss Delgado on the grim adventures of billy and mandy.
Most of the inspiration.
He gets his cyber-hand from Ash Williams.
"I've been bitten by ghosts, haunted by mole rats, and chased by vampires. So I think I deserve a free hot dog."
Glad I'm not the only one who caught this...
"No three point bullshit" ... Cuervo Jones is not a fan of analytics
guy makes 4 baskets
“he’s getting tired now”
Would laughed pretty hard if Dave Chapelle showed up as "Prince" and started playing basketball.
Game, blouses
😂😂
one the more iconic scenes in movie history. so brilliant conceived and Russell shows just the right amount of tension and swagger to make it absolutely believable. I am amazed why this movie did not do well. Its a classic.
Because too many other parts of it were corny 90's tropes. I do love this movie as well though.
Because the plot it's Escape from NY all over again, but less serious and more exaggerated, i like this one more tbh
It fell down in other areas unfortunately.
Villain looks like Che Guevara
NBA Solid Snake vs Mad Max Che Guevara
Before squid game there was this.!
They need to come out with, Escape from Walmart !
Lol, right!?
😂
He said "no three-point bullshit" but those last two were definitely threes
Meaning you don't get three points for those shots. Just two.
Lol
Your are right too
@@_Stormfatheryou are right too😂
This film is eerily prophetic. Soon people will do what its title name suggests: escape from L.A.
@@avolantyable It is. Now we're waiting for our hero to show up with a grim scowl and help people escape.
@@Teadon86there's a certain scowling mug shot that was recently taken, that might fit the bill
24 years on, people are still trying to escape from LA.
This scene is the 'Snake Plissken' version of 'the James Bond Escape'. James Bond fans know what I'm talking about......
So this is where the grim adventures of billy and mandy got the characters design from...
He actually made all those shots in real life. Kurt Russle is a straight badass
10 seconds is plenty of time to just dribble back and forth making lay ups. This isn't that hard
YOU JUST SAW HOW DIFFICULT IT WAS !!! DID YOU NOT WATCH THE CLIP ???!!?!!
Right it's like 4-5 seconds to run up a court if it's regulation and maybe an extra 2-3 if you're dribbling
No it’s not when you are fatigued. He has to track down the ball each time with the bird flu. Healthy that isn’t easy
TyrranicalT-Rad the movie made it look hard anyone that plays basketball could do that fairly easily
It’s hard because he runs in slow motion
The best thing about this scene is that there are no cut scenes, snake hit all those shots. He wanted to make it more authentic and even the full court shot was said to have taken him only one or two tries.
First try. Russell is a badass.
Fun fact: They were actually going to shoot Kurt Russell.
JK.
0:09 He must hate the NBA these days...
I know this movie is terrible but it's so fun to watch. 😅
CHAZ 😂
Me: Searches for ways to improve free throws
TH-cam: Behold Snake! 🐍
His son Wyatt really does look exactly like him. Especially when he plays us agent
Snake Plissken and Jack Burton are my top 2 favorite Kurt Russell Characters. *Call Me Snake*
& THAT Is Why...He's Snake Freakin' Plisken.
So this is where Metal Gear got its inspiration from?
Yeah I can see it.
This is exactly how 2013 was for me
Wow never knew kurt russel is actually better then kyle kuzma
Game....Blouses.
He wasted a solid 5 seconds at the end looking around.
He had ice in his veins, so he was just lining up the shot.
Weird flex but ok
They cut out the best part when everyone yelling snake (blk lady especially)
Dude Perfect would later use this technology for 25 million views...
Sign Snake Curry to the Golden State Warriors😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
My favourite scene in the movie, although I do love the surf scene also with Peter Fonda!
I hope this movie get remastered and Wyatt Russell get snake plissken character
Escape from New York was much better.
To bad biggie couldn't escape from L.A.
This one is also charming, really underestimated to me
So if his half court wasn't enough he backed it up with a full court side arm shot? Amazing. Snake reminds me of Mr. Perfect from the WWE.
his expression being told this is so classic its like "yeah yeah buddy ive done this before not the only one with basketball courts of death ever been to Detroit?"
This is literally the only scene I remember from this movie.
I used to be a basketball player like you, until I took an arrow to the eye.
This was real Kurt Russell did all the basketball by himself
You paid your dues Jack?
The check's in the mail.
They should make this a competition in the all star weekend.
Why would you dribble?
First everyone was booing at Snake but after the 10th shot they all started cheering for him?
People love a winner.
not many players would do those shots even with normal depth perception
He's a deadeye shooter, way ahead of space jam
Now imagine Alex Jones trying to do this.
😂🤣😂🙈🙈
Alex would believe that he could
lmao why did this make me laugh wtf 🤣
Jones is a powerlifter if he's anything. They tend not to be fast.
Love how he doesn't even take his gloves off.
At 1:56 take that dude perfect.
Lol yeah
I remember seeing this scene as a child and not knowing where it had come from. I vaguely recalled Snake's name but it wasn't until I saw a bit of Escape from New York that I decided to look it up.
That full court though.
This is how a game of Basketball was in the mid 90's. Fun times.
Sure was
The original was a classic but this movie was a huge disappointment. The story and writing was just terrible...
How did a guy with one eye have the depth perception for that last shot?... Still great movie and great actor.
Dude.... its Hoss Delgato from The Grim adventures of Billy and Mandy!! It has to be him... looks exactly like him lol
2:10 - "It's all in the reflexes."
I'm just liking the reference
I'm glad John carpenter let us know that snake pilissken has a great mid range jumper. We all were dying to know.
wished there would be more of this kinda movie or more parts with Snake Plissken
Really impressive he did that with having virtually no depth perception, having one eye and all
