Escape from New York/Escape from LA

[alan chaplin]

heres another great film from the 80s by john carpenter starring kurt russell and the late great ernest borgnine, just wondered if you would like to see this and escape from LA in steelbook seperate releases. I know paramount own the rights to escape from LA but not sure who owns the rights to new york, so with the centenary editions on play if these would get a release as well.

Surely my friend, I loved this movie and want to take Steelbook.

how long does one have to wait?

 

[Sigill]

I would like to see them both but would have to go for the original first!

 

[Jason Bourne]

poll's without a no and yes option are pointless and don't really gauge true interest people have in getting a steel book or not. Mod's please add the necessary options to actually vote.

Title updated.

 

[karl01]

I would buy both

Escape From NY would be great as a steelbook, but the title needs a full restoration. The initial transfer onto Blu Ray wasn't great...

Would like to see this as a steelbook. Perhaps a matt style finish. Title debossed. Have Kurt Russell glossy (you know, like thor on the thor steelbook)

And perhaps interior artwork as

I would love both films as steelbooks

the picture you chose ricster is the same as the rgion 1 special edition with the comic, the title and snake are embossed.

a very big thank you to everyone who has voted.

Another personal favourite. Would definitely purchase Escape from New York in steelbook. The second one made me want to give myself an uppercut i.e. the 'surfing' scene

I'd love to see some other John Carpenter titles released in steelbook too.

 

[NUFC1892]

I would buy any John Carpenter title on steelbook

 

[moz147]

both please

Snake Plissken people! Who on Earth would not want this as a steel?

 

[Ironpatriot]

Would love this and I hear they making a reboot

 

[Heche1981]

I would actually like to see both of these films in a double pack, preferably released by Arrow

I believe New Line Cinema currently hold the rights for these films (bought from StudioCanal), although I could be wrong. There's currently a remake / reboot in the works, with Jason Statham and Tom Hardy tipped to take the role of Snake Plissken

Jason Statham?! Urgggg! I seriously hope not.
Don't see why the don't just get Russell back!

But yes a steelbook for both films would be great!

Any of these images would do for cover art!

I have only seen Escape from LA, I liked it at the time but some aspects of it doesn't stand up to viewing by today's standards.

If this was to be done, it would have to be a double set!

 

[blumaster]

no option for both? I would buy both in separate steels, but New York must be made into steel.
