Interview with Joe Thornton, French EFNY
Édition Collector DVD Photos, EFNJ Part 2 Teaser Trailer

My series of fan interviews has come to Joe Thornton. Joe is one of the moderators over at SnakePlissken.Net and every hardcore fan online knows who he is. He's a very passionate expert and contributor on everything about Snake and he's been a great help to many of us. Thank you Joe.

  Joe Thornton Interview

And here's something for all of you who haven't bothered to buy a region free coded DVD player or purchased the French EFNY
Édition Collector DVD. If you're a big fan of the movie you really should own a copy. However, I took the liberty to grab some screenshots of all the great photos featured in this DVD so a larger amount of Snake fans can enjoy them. I never would have done this if this title was still in print. I even sended the DVD company an e-mail if I could get permission to use them, but I didn't received any reply. I will remove them if you ask me to. I have clearly marked which ones who is featured in this DVD on my Behind the Scenes Photos page and Publicity/Production Stills/Photos page etc. Enjoy!   



And here's the teaser trailer for Escape From New Jersey Fan Movie Part 2. I like it alot.

EFNY Remake News!

Three new articles are posted on my EFNY remake page. Breck Eisner seems to be a competent director who wants to make something very familiar and different at the same time. He also want to have a more current social commentary. Sounds pretty good. There is also a possibility that Breck Eisner will chose Timothy Olyphant as Snake.

Escape From New Jersey Online! Escape From New York 1.5!

IT'S ONLINE!

Chris .R. Notarile's Escape From New Jersey is without a doubt the best Snake fan movie I've ever seen. It's a big leap from his earlier fan movie Escape Big Trouble in New Jersey. It stays true to the universe of Snake Plissken and Hector De La Rosa (Snake himself) didn't let me down. He's the guy for the job. I really look forward to part 2. Many thanks to the makers of EFNJ. You keep our beloved anti-hero alive and kicking. Chris also put up a fun blooper reel on YouTube. Check it out.

Believe it or not this is not all. Hector De La Rosa (yes Snake Plissken in EFNJ) has been a busy guy. He also posted eight chapters of something called Escape From New York 1.5 on his site: Escape from New York's ultimate fan page. It's a complete rewrite of Escape From New York and Mike McQuay's EFNY Novel! There's a lot of new stuff added and fleshed out that adds several more layers to the story. Hector fills the gaps perfectly and adds another dimension to the story. I won't spoil anything here, but I guarantee you'll be surprised. Hector has really put a lot of effort and devotion to this and it shows. His passion for EFNY and Snake is tireless and admirable and I have to salute him. I can't wait to read more.

Misc

A little late perhaps, but the producers of the EFNY remake are considering casting Quinton Jackson as Snake Plissken. I'm getting really tired hearing about this remake. Most Snake fans doesn't want it. Go away please. Sure, Snake deserves to be resurrected, but watching so many effortless and soulless remakes pouring out from Hollywood's sewers, I can't help to feel very, very skeptical. Please prove me wrong.

Updated "Deleted or Never Filmed Scenes & Alternate Versions" Page: Added two confirmed deleted scenes from EFLA from the
6:47 minute Making of EFLA video. One is a guess though, but I find it to be the most likely option. Please let me know if it's wrong.
Updated "
Videos" Page. Added a promo TV trailer of EFNY from 1986 found on YouTube.

Then we have some more pics.

Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KURT RUSSELL!!!

Added a video from Duke Nukem 64 where Snake is featured in an easter egg. Almost all videos have been saved by me. Tired of seeing videos come and go. If they get deleted or something, I'll upload them myself. The John Carpenter interview from the SE EFNY VHS and SE Laserdisc is soon uploaded by Revok again by the way. Fan Music Videos have been taken away.
These videos comes and goes, and they seem to violate copyright laws. You're better off looking for them yourself on YouTube etc.
