Snake Plissken, in: Escape from Disney ^^ Ah, will he speak in Japanese? Orewa Snake-derimasu!
I think it sounds interesting, and it said Kurt Russel will provide the voice....it sounds like it will be an American movie with an japanese animation company animating it.

Oh, I'll probably watch it. And it's defintely interesting. But still.. LOL.. I think it's sort of silly that it's happening like this. American movies made into a sort of like.. I dunno psuedo<sp> anime of sorts. Just bizzare.

It happens all the time, see an American company will contract a Japanese studio to do the animation for them... past examples that spring to mind are one based on the PC game "SiN" (that turned out awful) and "Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker" (which turned out good)... this just happens to be one of the few that are actually of a rather high profile deal (with a "big star" taking the lead role)
I think this sounds fun... now if Carpter can get Hideo Kojima to make thegames (and really given Solid Snake's new look in MGS2 and "Iraquose Pliskin" do you think he'd turn down a chance if asked and a contract could be reach with Konami?) Snake's rebirth to these new media should an unstoppable powerhouse
WHOO-HOO!!! I have an inexplicable love of Kurt Russell/John Carpenter movies so this is great news for me.

He already shot the heck out of Disneyland in Escape from L.A. but there's no reason he blast the place to pieces a second time. I just hope in the proposed cartoon Snake manages to blow up the world for a third straight time, that would be so cool.

Animated Snake Pliskeen?
YES!
It occurs to me that an awful lot of trouble in Gotham City could have been averted a long time ago if Batman had just ripped the Joker's nipples off.
A man with the nipples ripped off him does not make the same mistakes twice.
I mean crime in Gotham City doesn't exactly seem to be affected by a man dressed as a bat flapping around the place. But no-one disobeys a man wearing a necklace of human nipples.
"I'm Batman" isn't cutting it in the striking-fear-into-their-hearts stakes. But "I'm Batman -- and I'm here for your nipples" is an entirely different proposition. -- Warren Ellis

I see Madhouse working on this for some reason...But Kurt Russel and John Carptener are always good for movie fun, or a chessy fun movie...:)
(Have the special edition of Big Trouble in Little China, and they do a fun directors commentary there...)

After the eh, "success" of Ghosts of Mars, looks like Carpenter is going back to his roots but still looking ahead with new ideas ^_^

I agree with an above post, that it will probably be pseudo-anime. That's my expectation level from the entertainment industry. The article suggests they are doing it to keep Snake P. around as a marketing / sequalitice franchise. This is the wrong reason for making art, however it may be possible that they have some creative ideas already and are really interested in making something good,which isn't reflected in that article. When art is made for this wrong reason, and in recent times especially, it usually will lead to intelectually / conceptually / story-wise and culturally worthless things that only exist to make the owners money, and detract from the level of society. Some examples of culturally worthless things that detract from society are Interscope Records and Microsoft. Of course Escape From- is just one marketing licensing franchise.
This is my expectation level from them. I liked the original Snake P. movie. If they made a great cartoon I would like it. I would prefer for them to make a great cartoon.

I don't know how to feel about this.. I really like " Escape from New York " , but " Escape from L.A. " was... painful... I hope this turns out to be better.
