The Warriors (1979)

[SonnyCID]

Top ten movie of all time, or simply the best movie of all time?

 

[TexasMan]

Not even close.

But, a good flick nonetheless.

Sounds like something a member of The Orphans would say.

You look me in the eye and say that.

True story...

I am reading this thread and get to bottom to see the ad. It is for jerseys, and the first I see is white with black pinstripes.

Perfectly appropriate.

top ten guy movie I agree. Just want it to stay far away Hollywood having no new ideas and getting remade with justin beiber as the warlord.

 

[packerzrule]

pretty good flick but I can think of 10 other "guy" films that are much better

I seem to recall a few news blurbs about rival gangs going to the same theater showing & getting into fights midway through the movie.

 

[BigRedMoe]

I like it because it made street gangs look like a bunch of fhegs.

It is a really good movie but The Warriors isn't in my top 10

Just watched the classic movie The Warriors and this classic, perfectly done scene:

I finally saw this movie a month or so back when it came on Vice. Honestly...I think its overrated. Maybe I was just expecting too much after reading so much about it over the years but after viewing it, I was just like "That's it?" It was ok, don't get me wrong, and I don't feel like I wasted my time but I did expect more out of it.

I think that the fact that it is sooo absurd adds to its charm. If you don't expect the idiocy going in, you might not get that aspect.

I got the ridiculousness of it and did find it comical. I dunno, I just expect more...violence and story I guess? They didn't really have any kickass fight scenes I thought and then it just sort of ended. Not really a lot of plot. It was mostly just a chase film with some goofy cosplay

I had the same reaction WT, think my pops hyped it up too much. I think I would enjoy it more a second time around knowing what exactly it is.

I agree. For me it seems like a lot of the gangs lack the intimidation factor. Trannies in baseball uniforms and guys on roller skates just aren't very scary.
