ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK more of a prequel than a remake? So says Carpenter to Suicide Girls!!

First! by radjac33	Mar 21st, 2007 03:44:42 AM
Funny, I thought you were taller.
damn, just make another sequel by SaintX99	Mar 21st, 2007 03:47:00 AM
Kurt Russell is still alive damn it! And he could well play and older and grizzled Snake escaping the USA?
Almost there, almost there... by WavingFlagsInSpace	Mar 21st, 2007 03:47:33 AM
Surely it was the concept of 'Escape...' that made it so good in the first place, then the great characters were a bonus and made the film a cult classic. They're going to need something really high concept if this is to not smack of cashing in on a 'classic'.
Ugh. The Suicide Girls are so fugging trendy now days. by vivavitalogy	Mar 21st, 2007 03:51:07 AM

He doesn't say that they aint remaking it... by BenBraddock	Mar 21st, 2007 03:59:43 AM
... just that there's a lot more pre- NY stuff. Why would they stop short at the chance of fucking up a perfectly good original movie?

Oh, fuck me by Franklin T Marmoset	Mar 21st, 2007 04:04:55 AM
I just went from being cautiously optimistic to utterly uninterested. If this is going to be some TCM: The Beginning or Rob Zombie Halloween malarkey where we get a bunch of scenes that 'explain' a character who relies on a certain amount of mystery, I don't want to see this. I like not knowing how he lost his eye, and I like not knowing who the fuck Fresno Bob is. I am interested to know who keeps suggesting these prequel ideas. Maybe it's just one guy who keeps putting his hand up in development meetings and saying: "How about we delve into the backstory for this one?" If it is, that guy is an asshole, and someone needs to have a word with him. I suggest Juggfuckler be the one to do it.
So many Prequels, so little time... by moobit	Mar 21st, 2007 04:05:37 AM
The first film was good, but not sure if it needs another one making...where's the origonality gone in film?
Just speculation on Carpenter's part. by Reelheed	Mar 21st, 2007 04:07:02 AM
Sounds like he's not in the know at all. Also how likely is it to be a prequel if they're still calling it "Escape from New York"?

GERARD BUTLER TO STAR IN REMAKE OF ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK by MaxCalifornia.	Mar 21st, 2007 05:02:22 AM
Aaaargh, my hilarious recurring talkback gag has gone all Ourobouros and eaten itself. Anyway, enough with the prequels. You only get to do that if you're a big franchise - Star Wars, Batman, Bond. Though just for the sake of movie history, it'd be hilarious to have a prequel that was simultaneously a remake.

so this will be about Snake, Brain, and Fresno Bob? dunno if it sounds nearly as appealing to me as Escaoe From Earth. now if John Motherfuckin' Carpenter would quit sitting around all day smoking weed, playing his Cockbox 360, and checking porn out on the internet, maybe he could get it off the ground instead of this shitcake.
What makes you guys think he's gonna lose an eye? by Beastmanseventy	Mar 21st, 2007 05:30:19 AM
I don't think they respect the character enough for that. Look forward to a non-post apocalyptic New York, no gayboy badguys (It'd scare off the homophobic teen boy market), no bloody action scenes (Gotta get that PG13 rating!), no racist stereotype "Injuns" gang, no pro wrestlers (Too redneck), etc, etc, etc. Eyepatches are for movies with balls, people. Snake is gonna be a cop sent in to rescue the president's daughter and instead of shootouts we'll get a bunch of scenes where he's driving fast down clean empty streets and talking on a cell phone. No grunge, no blood, no eyepatch. Cell phone shouting matches are the new shootout and carchase.

Have you ever notice how by Black Satin 2	Mar 21st, 2007 05:56:34 AM
Have you ever notice how important it is for these 'fools' to explain every single thing that goes on with a character? Snake Plissken's eyepatch or how he was the All-American boy before something went wrong that changed all that. That said everything about that character and nearly nothing. No one knows and I wish to God they'd leave it at that. That's what really peeves Russell off. I read his interview with EW just this morning and he'd like the character to be American. Why not? Isn't Bond British.
Snake owns himself...a little? by longevitymonk	Mar 21st, 2007 05:58:32 AM
I say we all show up at the Grindhouse premiere in austin with eye patches..when Kurt Russell appears we'll jump out of our soggy cardboard boxes and beat him up untill he puts on the sunglasses and sees that this remake/prequal idea sucks without him, and that his destiny is to be in the sequal to Big Trouble in Little China.
Actually prequel works for me better than remake by Maniaq	Mar 21st, 2007 06:07:58 AM
Maybe it'll be Escape from Leningrad? I heard about Carpenter, Russell and Hill owning Snake from the LA movie - none of them would agree to let a sequel be made unless all three were involved... Can't say that really guaranteed a winning formula - Russell only just managed to scrape that movie in by staying true to the character, and it was pretty obvious there was no way in hell Escape from Earth was ever going to happen. I'm well over the "reboot" concept and I just don't think anyone could sell me a non-Kurt Snake in a remake, no matter how badass they tried to play it... I get the whole thing about explaining things that don't need to be explained but... you know... I think there's a chance a prequel could be done right, you know? Of course Quint is totally on the money with the Annakin sentiment - if they leave the EFNY back-story alone and just get on with telling a decent story this could work - and there's no way Kurt Russell could play a younger Snake so a recast could work too... Basically I think they could well have something here that looks good on paper - but that don't necessarily mean a good film will come out the other end...
stupid, just plain stupid by just pillow talk	Mar 21st, 2007 06:34:45 AM
I think a prequel should be made for Solo. It would be so neat-o. Oh yes, neat-o.
PREQUELS SUCK BALLS! by stlfilmwire	Mar 21st, 2007 06:49:10 AM
NO PREQUELS!
So, maybe it will be Escape from Cleveland? by rbatty024	Mar 21st, 2007 06:55:43 AM
I might go along with a prequel. As people have mentioned, its at least a better idea than a remake. Although, Kurt Russel could probably take the reins in a sequel. Snake would work well as a curmudgeon.

Escape from Hazzard County by Dr Gregory House	Mar 21st, 2007 07:04:17 AM
President Bush and Karl Rove must make an emergency landing in Hazzard County, where they are taken hostage by moonshiners who don't take kindly to city folk. Snake Plisken is sent in to rescue Bush and Rove. However, Bush feels right at home and "don't need no rescuin" so he stays. The End!

LA worked as comedy by Beastmanseventy	Mar 21st, 2007 07:10:52 AM
It was supposed to be a satire of NY where everyone plays it real straight and doesn't even realize they're in a comedy. I thought it was a brilliant subtle parody, much like how Evil Dead 2 was a mockery of Evil Dead 1.
Why people think Snake is dead. by risherb	Mar 21st, 2007 07:21:54 AM
It's just an in-joke that Carpenter was having fun with. It comes from a John Wayne movie named "Big Jake." Jake has been through so many wars and adventures that people think he must be dead by now.

Prequels are amazing! by Spandau Belly	Mar 21st, 2007 07:23:17 AM
They take what was covered in exposition in a much better movie and inflate it out to a feature-length bloated mess with no surprises and poor pacing. I also want to send out some made props to the new genre of PREMAQUEL! Thank you producers of TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, without you we would not have ever known that a movie that was successful on its own not only needs to be remade, but that the characters have to be further explained in another full length movie. You prequel guys are great! I can't wait for the prequel to MAN ON FIRE that shows Denzel as a drunken reprobate who just keeps mumbling at a bar "if only I could find some sort bond with a child, that would give me reason to live". The rest of the script can be the same as Mickey Rourke's BARFLY. Keep the prequels coming! I'm not dead yet you bastards! Hit me again! C'mon! MORE PREQUELS! I'M READY TO GO!

Interview by Boromir187	Mar 21st, 2007 07:36:30 AM
If you read the interview, it sounds like Carpenter is exerting himself more than on the other three remakes. He had pretty much nothing to do with the AOP13 and Halloween remakes and The Fog redo was Debra Hill's baby, whose death pretty much killed any potential it had in pre-production. With this one it sounds like he is overseeing it more do to his fondness for the character. He apparently has script approval on this remake, particularly in reference to making sure that the new Snake stays true to the original character. With him actually being involved in the production (as opposed to a handful of obligatory appearances on set like with The Fog), this one might have a chance providing they get a solid director. As for the prequel stuff? I'm betting they'll just be showing the bank robbery that lands him in the NY prison. Carpenter's own film was going to open with that scene, but they cut it out because it didn't fit the rest of the tone of the film. In the scene, Snake is shown robbing the bank of ridiculous amounts of credit cards and then making an escape with his partner Bill Taylor. Upon reaching their destination, they are ambushed and Taylor is killed. I'm betting on a similar scene this time around, although maybe a bit longer to cap off the film at around 2 hours. Just a guess. All I have to say is, if this turns out well, they better have Butler signed on for at least two or more sequels. If we get a good remake out of this, then the character deserves the franchise that he never really got. If it blows, then let it die a quick death.
DAMN YOU JOHN CARPENTER! by spud mcspud	Mar 21st, 2007 07:40:21 AM
I supported your lame-ass efforts for the last decade. I evenalmost enjoyed GHOSTS OF MARS. But after what you let them do with The Fog... DAMN YOU JOHN CARPENTER! Now, put down the fried chicken, get ut of that dressing gown, stop smoking for maybe a second and make the sequel to BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA!!! PLEEEEEASE! And we all know that Josh Holloway=Recast Snake Plissken. Gerard Butler=Snake Plissken=Nipples on John Carpenter's Flame Chair of Creative Death. It's all in the reflexes, people.

Bless you, Spandau Belly by Franklin T Marmoset	Mar 21st, 2007 07:50:14 AM
I am inspired by your sense of humour over this nonsense. With that in mind, here are some suggestions for the Hollywood premaquel guy: Die Hard 0 - This one is a kitchen sink drama, possibly directed by Mike Leigh, where John McClane squabbles with Holly about her new job. Dude, Where's My Car?: The Early Years - In this one, toddler versions of Stiffler and Punk'd lose their Fisher Price tricycle, and we discover why they're such brainded assholes. The Terminator: The Beginning - Following the life of a young terminator fresh off the production line as he attends termination academy and learns how to nick people's clothes and whatnot. Star Wars: The Shit From Before Luke Was Born - In this one, we find out that Darth Vader was a whiny brat and the jedi were a bunch of idiot virgins. That last one is a step too far, obviously. Nobody would be stupid enough to make that film.

DAMN YOU JOHN CARPENTER! GAAAAAHHHHH! by spud mcspud	Mar 21st, 2007 08:03:57 AM
Just read the interview on Suicide Girls. For fuck's sake. Yes, they're only movies... only some of the best movies of the last 40 years! For fuck's sake! If you're going to give up a movie beloved by millions to be remade, does it have to be to someone as buttfucking talentless as Rupert Wainwright? Do we HAVE to have someone play Snake who has maybe less than 10% of the sheer cool of Kurt Russell? Does HALLOWEEN HAVE to be fucked over and over until it ends up in the hands of some talentless twat like Rob Zombie? Whoops, already did. What next? Just, for crying out loud, in the name of all that DOES NOT SUCK, PLEEEEEASE don't remake or sequelise BIG TROUBLE!!! I know John has been fucked over royally throughout his distinguished as hell career when it comes to money. But people really do love these movies, John. If you need a little cash, as least take it from someone who knows how to make a movie. Who do I REALLY trust to remake a Carpenter and get the shit right? ZACK SNYDER. You all know it. Now I'm going to get my truck back.
Darfur, don't even JOKE about such a thing... by spud mcspud	Mar 21st, 2007 08:06:08 AM
Shia LaBeouf was the very worst thing in CONSTANTINE, and has that plucky bright-as-a-button cool kid quality that makes you want to smack the shit out of him. Maybe Roth could torture him to death in HOSTEL 3: FUCK THE MPAA. But please, don't even JOKE about that. If some doofus suggests it, and has money, John Carpenter will say yes. That gives me the fear.
Do a prequel, but make it all infants in the lead roles by Pound Sand	Mar 21st, 2007 08:07:51 AM

This works much better for me... by Childe Roland	Mar 21st, 2007 08:12:01 AM
...than the idea of a remake. Like I said in the last thread, that's an interesting world Plissken lives in and I'm sure he has more stories from it to tell. Let Butler wear the patch and the boots for those tales, so long as his performance is a compelte homage to Kurt.

PREQUELS ARE REWRITING MOVIE LAW! by Spandau Belly	Mar 21st, 2007 08:37:46 AM
Can't you people see that we're living in revolutionary times? Old movie law used to state that if you don't see a character die, they aren't dead. Time to take that scripture to the antique shop, old man! New movie law states that unless you see a character be born and grow up they really haven't been developed. Have you ever seen a movie and a character is wearing clothes right from the start? I hate that! I want to see them buy those clothes and the rationale behind choosing that outfit over others. Or movies were people already have a relationship full of quarks and mutual understanding? Don't fear cinema lovers, from now on we'll see all that explained! The only problem is a prequel "Irreversible" which I can't decide if it will either take place further in the past or the future. C'mon Michael Bay, help me out with this one! I'm just an idiot finance guy and not a master of cinematic production.

The major problem with "prequels"... by biggles2_22	Mar 21st, 2007 08:58:08 AM
...is that the major protagonists fate is already determined. Kind of takes the fun outta it when you know the guy has no chance of getting offed in the final act. Personally, I think a Post-apocolyptic Pliskin would be da-bomb. Do it kinda like a Western with a Road Warrior kick. Carpenter writing. Zack directing. No Carpenter synthesized soundtrack, please.

Escape from Bad Prequels? by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Mar 21st, 2007 09:12:53 AM
This could actually work, though I reserve judgment. Although, unlike the few sequels that are better than the original there's never been a superior prequel. Not that they all suck, I'm just sayin'. Two things though: No CGI. EFNY was tough and gritty. Hell, even the glider landing scene was not computerized. The technology was in its infancy back then, and they couldn't afford it. Second, get David Cronenberg to direct. I just watched A History of Violence again last night. Think of what he and Butler could do to this role together.
nope, shitty idea by Lost Prophet	Mar 21st, 2007 09:21:27 AM
Has anyone else seen the UK 25 year anniversary DVD which has Snake's botched robbery in the Extras? That was the worst robbery sequence ever. Not cool in the slightest, I'm glad it didn't make the final cut. Prequaled Snake: HAyden Uselessen- the fucker is already making a career out of anally raping cinematic idols, so why not- seeing as they don't give a fuck about any EFNY fans opinion anyway, and at least he will draw in the retard 13 year old girl market.

Jezum Crow, Grammaton Cleric Binks by Franklin T Marmoset	Mar 21st, 2007 09:38:01 AM
No disrespect meant, but those are some awful ideas there. No CGI? Why the hell not? Where did this notion that modern film making tools should not be used come from? If there was a problem with the original it was that it barely looks like it takes place in New York at all. If they're going to do a remake, they should CGI the shit out of it. Modern digital compositing techniques would be great for making it look like Snake is actually escaping from New York. Also, David fucking Cronenberg? Holy christ. Why stop there? Why not let Atom Egoyan have a go? How's about a David Lynch version - three hours long and structured as an abstract piece of dream logic? P.S. Coming down with a cold. Apologies for the crotchetyness.

the bank robbery,,, by datachasm	Mar 21st, 2007 09:46:19 AM
i thought it was good, the problem with the scene is that it lets on too early that Snake is not necessarily a complete bastard... its kinda weird seeing him be all badass with the cops, after he pretty much gives himself up to try and save Taylor.

weird... by datachasm	Mar 21st, 2007 09:57:25 AM
snakeplisken.net has a timeline gathered from "canon" sources. starts with small war in middle east, then russia uses gas on the US that creates lots of "crazies" and criminals. Snake is on a mission, "Leningrad Ruse" flying gliders over a supply station and unwittingly its a suicide mission. Snakes goggle breaks and he gets gas in his eye. he finds he was betrayed and quits the army, and starts bombing Federal buildings.

Fuck Suicide Girls by FrixFrixFrix	Mar 21st, 2007 10:02:19 AM
What a bunch of talentless ugly skanks. As for their "burlesque shows", they can't even muster up enough personality to be entertaining for 20 minutes. What a bunch of fucking worthless Rocky Horror rejects. Burlesque? You mean a fat pasty gay guy onstage making a vain attempt at jokes in the worst put-on english accent I've ever heard? Go back to Jersey you sweaty bastard. Next time you tell people you're going to have a show and charge admission at the door and too much for beers and get everyone all packed into your shitty little faux red velvet curtain draped backroom (may as well have been in your mom's basement in Hoboken), maybe you should try actually PUTTING ON A SHOW instead of just standing around like a bunch of blind retards bumping into eachother trying to figure out what to do next. Oh, and just to clarify, wagging your floppy pancake boobs around onstage isn't a statement or empowering to women, it's just fucking floppy pancake boobs. So lay off the cake and try to come up with something at least mildly entertaining next time. Worst six dollars ever!
Nice by purplemonkeydw	Mar 21st, 2007 10:18:58 AM

What the F were they doing there, anyway?? They really weren't that cute in person, at least the ones that came to the show. Escape prequel sounds like a good idea in my opinion. Maybe they can make use of Kurt in a framing device or something?
let's have Rockstar make a videogame... by lynxpro	Mar 21st, 2007 10:45:07 AM
After all, Escape from New York deserves a video game more than The Warriors ever did. Actually, I'd love to see Rockstar do Escape and Red Dawn. Those two games would rock the PS3 hardcore.
adding my voice...Holloway is Snake redux... by lynxpro	Mar 21st, 2007 10:47:00 AM
As much as I liked Butler in 300, Josh Holloway is 100% in my mind as the proper actor to portray Snake in any prequel/remake/flashback of the character. Then again, the studio would probably do something stupid like pick Heath Ledger for the role. What do I know...I wanted Christopher Eccleston as The Joker, so my bad...

Whoever came up with the video game idea by skimn	Mar 21st, 2007 11:48:33 AM
has it right. Leave the damn movie to reside in our memories and dvd players. The Thing was a pretty decent game a few years ago, and this could be done as a grand-theft type game, with glider and wrestling mini games. Who wouldn't want to play as Snake with Kurt doing voice work?? It would outsell Gears of War!! Last good Carpenter flick....? I pretty much enjoyed the one with the Lovecraftian book...forgot the title..

LIST OF CHARACTERS THAT HAVE BEEN ANAKIN-IZED?? by wilsonfisk89	Mar 21st, 2007 12:04:20 PM
This trend is the worst. Not every complicated or "evil" character needs some sad f'ed up childhood to explain why. I'd like to think that theres a certain amount of choice in becoming who you are, existence over essence? 1. Hannabil Lecter 2. Anakin (obv) 3. Mike Myers (zombie) 4. Willy Wonka (Burton) 5.

NOT PREQUEL ENOUGH! by Spandau Belly	Mar 21st, 2007 12:34:56 PM
Sorry Mr. Speilburg, you were on the right track with that third Indiana Jones movie, but you didn't prequel it up enough. I love that scene where we find out that Indy wears a hat on his head because a guy gave it to him. I always wondered why Indy did that. I mean, putting a hat on your head just isn't something guys do. You need to explain that. But Speilburg should have made the whole movie explaining that, not just an isolated flashback. Then you need to make a spinoff movie telling the story of the guy who gave him the hat, get the guy who did "Electra" to make it. Then make a prequel to that movie. Plus the prequel portion was waaaayyyyyy under-Jordana Brewsterized. I mean, you think a master filmmaker like Speilburg would know this stuff, but we all make mistakes and assume that the public wants a story with a climax and not just a bunch of exposition. It happens.
It won't be a prequel by Vern	Mar 21st, 2007 12:47:29 PM
I mean come on dude, I don't know why Carpenter is saying that, but the movie is called ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK. Let's say they have 15 or 20 minutes of Snake in the war or the bank robbery or prison, so what, it's still gonna be a remake. As for Suicide Girls, I cannot fuckin believe that you guys bring the same nitpicky assholeisnish you have towards movies to your fuckin jerkoff material! You don't like to jerk off to pictures of these girls, jerk off to pictures of some other girls! Or whatever you jerk off to pictures of. If they failed to give you a boner you don't gotta call a fuckin town meeting to express your grievances. Jesus.

i dig EFNY as much as everyone else seems to, and i tend to be wary of prequels. however, if the original was so fucking good and perfect as everyone says, why has it not made billions over the past few years? why no "anniversary" editions every five years? there is room for improvement in the film, especially the whole "set in the future of 1997" part. let them have a go at remaking it and we shall see then. if it is as bad as most fear, fine, we can all get together and piss on the director or something.

My family thinks that Sam smoked way too much weed in his life and eventually burned out. Perhaps that's Carpenter's problem, as well

"John Carpenter died in 1986" by number5withabullet	Mar 21st, 2007 03:20:40 PM
Well, that would prevent him from making "They Live" starring Rowdy Roddy Piper. That's the movie they should fucking remake. Great concept, lot's of politics, cool action, and Bruce Campbell style one-liners. Also the production values on the first one were extremely low, and could be improved on with even a small effects budget. Ok, who would star in it? You know they're gonna make it eventually. How about a beefed up Gael Garcia Bernal in the starring role with Djimon Hounsou as his friend? And it takes place in Sao Paulo. And it's called "City of God II: Kick ass and chew bubblegum."
So Just What Did Happen in Cleveland? by Evil Chicken	Mar 21st, 2007 04:20:51 PM
I’m still wrapping my head around this one. I believe that John Carpenter and Kurt Russell should have another go at Snake. That being said this remake will bring in buckets of cash re-introduce the franchise and even have purists like me buying a ticket opening night. Butler will make a great Snake but in my geek boy heart of hearts Plissken will always be Kurt Russell.

With all do respect, give me a fugging break. What do you care if a bunch of dorks wax about how much they despise those tarts. It's just that voicing opinions on yet another remake is tiresome and as always, futile. So without further ado, the Suicide Girls are tantamount to the idea of shit telling puke that it stinks.

...it generally goes like "wah-wah-wah" "wah-wah-wah" with a guitar and are just variations of the same theme. Think about it. They Live had it. Vampires had it. And Ghosts of Mars had it. Then again, if you think about it, thematically, Carpenter has been making the same movie over and over... Assault on Precinct 13, The Prince of Darkness and Ghosts of Mars are pretty much the same flick with different hooks. Still, when Carpenter rocks, he rocks.

And the site is owned/run LARGELY by women. There is NO PLACE else like it. There is nothing else like it period.

This is the internet, after all. Everyone pretends to be anti-everything. But in all seriousness, the Suicide Girls are gross. They were people who no one gave a shit about their opinions, so they took a bunch of broads who ain't too pretty, got them to show some nasty banana-tits, and got popular because it was free porn. And you really don't get "shoe money" like Herc claims he gets? I can't believe that.

I reckon the prequel aspect of the film will be a new first act that sets up Snake's character before he's screwed over and sent into New York. Heaven forbid we should, you know, learn about the character as the story progresses. Thanks, Hollywood. God knows, us film watching assholes are an unimaginative bunch. Bless you for explaining everything. Here's an idea: The title sequece will show the guy in the factory making Snake's eyepatch! It'll be just like that bit with the bullet in Lord Of War.

I want to give a special award to THE EXORCIST which spawned two prequels covering the same materiel and using slightly different footage. Thank guys! As part of the greater viewing public I really appreciate how sensitive the film industry is to how much new things frighten me. I also want to thank all the talkbackers here at AICN for backing me in my quest for the total premaquelization and greater Jordana Brewsterination of the cinematic artform! I love guys! May you all be remade as Mark Wahlberg in the next life!

Too bad Donald Pleasance is dead or we could see him flip out when he plays the tape Snake slipped him and executive orders Hauk (too bad Lee Van Cleef is dead too) to terminate him. Are there any tape players extant? I've got a feeling there are a few eight-track fans on these boards.

The best thing about Suicide Girls... by BabatuFerguson	Mar 23rd, 2007 01:19:06 AM
...frankly, is the conversation. The place is crawling with smart geeks, of both genders, and there are plenty of groups (that you can't read unless you're a member) filled with people who know what the hell they're talking about. Some of the girls there are unbelievably hot; some of them are not. There are well over a thousand of them, so there's bound to be a quality continuum... And, incidentally, the site has never pretended to be hardcore pornography -- so complaining that it's not hardcore pornography is completely retarded. Completely.

The only reason people are lulled to SG is primarily to ogle. Its a secondary factor that there may be really cool discussions going on, but if I'm going to ogle or discuss things I'm going straight to the best sources for each one of those individual items. I suppose if I found tattoos and piercings attractive I'd be there all the time chatting away, but otherwise its not my cup of tea. I'm not bashing anyone that does like it, but am just sick of all the overboard excitement I constantly hear about it, as if I'm sick and wrong for not liking that style.
