Just finished it about 20 minutes ago and honestly, what a stinking pile of shit. Complete style over substance, the soundtrack and atmosphere are the only things worth mentioning in this mess. Classic my big fat ass.
Why do people love this movie so much?
this time you got it wrong
Besides Swan, the casting was so fricking bad.
They picked a bunch of ugly blacks, what more could you ask for?
But yeah unless there is some hidden Warrior-verse I don't know about the gimmick gangs thing was gay.
Style is substance.
Did you watch the directors cut?
It was like an hour and 40 something minutes I think.
lol
>Complete style over substance
Why do you think midwits love it so much
Midwits are the ones coming to a Hollywood movie and expecting substance
Name one (1) Hollywood movie with substance
The godfather
I find the pacing of most 70s movies to be off and weird to watch now
I thought it was funny that the little dude with israelitefro gets thrown in front of a train and never mentioned ever again.
Pic related is another 70s movie I've watched recently, and like you described, they just have completely random scenes that add absolutely nothing to the movie and are never referenced again.
>and like you described, they just have completely random scenes that add absolutely nothing to the movie and are never referenced again.
What scenes were those?
jewfro pissed off the director by being a pain in the ass so the director killed him off and even refused to list him in the credits.
oy
The video game based on it was absolutely based as frick.
i rented it back in the day when that was somehow still a thing. didn't finish it, but it was really good. classic era rockstar. i should really finish it some day
he can’t dig it
you've obviously never enjoyed the pleasures of gangbanging with your sports enthusiast homies
what's wrong, you going homosexual?
you're not just going homosexual, OP
you're gone
Acting doesn't hold up unfortunately. It sounds like most of the cast is just reading from their headscript
Because it reinforces the American ideal that if a societal breakdown and open gang warfare were to become commonplace in United states, the gangs would NOT be drawn upon racial lines.
According to American sensibilities its okay to have gang wars, they can be quite wholesome, but only if the gangs are exhibit anti-racist organizational tendencies.
>Organised crime can be wholesome 100 if it's not racist
Go back.
I think you need to take a break from the internet for a little while, anon.
There's a cut plotline where a group of homosexuals kidnapped Swan and took him as their prisoner. Actual thing.
Because it's adapts a based historical tale.
does it actually adapt it or does it just take the premise of a small force having to escape an impossibly hostile situation?
its a very very lose adaptation of Xenophon's Anabasis the only direct similarities beside the premise that pop into my mind is that Cyrus is a named after Cyrus the younger
In retrospect this movie was the turning point where 70s pop culture ended and 80s pop culture began. Along with Halloween and maybe Dawn of the Dead
Filtered by kino of the highest order
Zoomies like you deserve the fricking rope
Need to watch the theatrical.
The theatrical is kino. The DC is cringe.
I can't stop laughing. You thought it would be good? Holy frick, that's funny.
This movie. Like most 70s movies. Is unobjectionable trash but has an essence and an air of high art to it. Like that moment where they see the prom kids on the subway or Cyrus says he "likes doing things like that". Because even back then when a movie was shit they knew you still had to put profundity into it.
bunch of midwits itt, imagine being filtered by The Warriors
You must be a homosexual because The Warriors is a story that goes back in time. Look it up.
Were gangs really like that in the 70s? Juts a bunch of people in halloween costumes walking around after midnight
Yes.
they mostly looked like the warriors
>police was so fricking shitty in NY there was crime fighting gangs
It feels like something out of a comic book
art imitates life
holy kino
>style over substance
Explain to me why do you think that is a negative trait
OP SUCKS wiener BY CHOICE!
OP is a gigantic homosexual who is probably upset that this obvious comic book esque movie is not like his MCU trash
>great story of gangs having to bop their way back to Coney Island through enemy territory
>leadership disputes along the way
>Luther a better villain than any of the MCU homosexuals
that radio lady has a mouth like a chimp's.
Did it have comic book transitions? If so you watched the inferior DC and you're a moronic homosexual
I forgot that piece of shit exists
watched it with my dad. somehow i think thats how most of us watched it. i can't explain it but that's why it's good. its a movie you'd watch with your dad. the wanderers was like that too.
Why do the Warriors commit every crime in the universe outside of grand theft auto, a safe easy crime that would get them home?
