NO! NO NO NO NO NO! Escape from New York must not be remade. And before people start griping, I'm not against remakes per se. Just this particular one! And anyway, it already *was* remade by Carpenter himself.

Just wanted to second this:
"The man is too hot to be named Gerald."
I'm torn between my usual disgust with studios not to be able to come up with any original content anymore, and my desire to see Gerard Butler in ANYTHING. Toss up.
