These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way.

YMMV: Escape From LA
Anvilicious: While the satire in New York was a lot less specific and aimed more for a general dark look at what future society could become, L.A. goes way into specifics in terms of having an ultra-evil conservative president and some of the most obvious satirical jabs at L.A. culture.
"The One" by White Zombie, heard over the end credits. Of course, this wouldn't be the last time Rob Zombie would be involved with a John Carpentermovie. Unfortunately.
Also, give Carpenter credit for being just about the only filmmaker in Hollywood (other than Wong and Morgan) to give Shirley Walker a real shot in movies.
Cliff Robertson, who played the President, would be better known to modern audiences as Uncle Ben, a role as far removed from this one as it gets.
In Christopher Columbus The Discovery, George Corraface played the title character, who allegedly discovered America. In Escape From LA, Corraface played Cuervo Jones, who wants to take over America.
