Screw what critics think, they are all prone to peer pressure anyway. The Warriors is, and will always be a great film.
I don't remember who it was, but it was a filmmaker in the 80s or 90s who said something like "I didn't make it for them, I made it for people who actually like movies" when asked about the negative critic reviews for one of his films that was doing well in the box office.
@Brett Hazelton If you are basing a film off a real event holes are often bigger and more pronounced. You have historians and experts picking holes in any film based on truth or reality. I watch the Warriors and see it for what it is escapism. Holes are to me irrelevant if the work is fiction
Fuck critics even if a movie is "bad" its not bad. If it was fun to watch then its all good
I always, repeat always listen to the critics reviews.
If they say it's a bad film, I know I'm probably gonna love it.
Ayo fuck the critics I'm with you.
Everyone I've ever showed this film has liked it or LOVED it. The writing, the action, the pace of the film itself, almost sheer perfection in my humble opinion. And the only reason I don't call it perfect is because every film ever made has its pitfalls.
And don't even get me started on the GAME. Good lord they took care of this franchise and I love it. We must protect it at all costs. I seriously fear them making some half assed remake that would end up being it's legacy.
Critics don't know shit. The warriors didn't need Oscar winning performances. Every actor did what they needed to do, and they nailed it. Warrior's was epic and goes down as one of my best films ever.
Yeah, all those idiots doesn't know anything about this epic movie
@@ilovememes3919 I saw it with my dad a couple of days ago. He said to me that when he watched it on cinema back in the days when he was 15 he liked the movie so much that he actually went to see it a second time the same week. I thought I was in for a treat when we started the movie but man was I wrong. I felt the movie never really started. I felt there was no big build up for the actual quest of the film. I think the movie have to be loved by íts nostalgic value, kind of like the original Star Wars triology which has goten a kind of god-like status as to where its okey for critics to review them with nostalgic biased. I really feel the movie was great back in the days, but for younger people (im 20 yrs old) it dosent hold up anymore. My dad was in shock as he really felt as I do after we had watched it, and he could not see what had made him so engaged 40 years ago. Although I think the movie has a cool aura I dont think it reached its full potential. The best thing about the movie imo is the movie poster, it looks really cool but sadly the actual movie dosent hold up anymore.
I taught in a middle school in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Marcelino Sanchez was a student in my seventh grade social studies class. He was a wonderful, kind, and intelligent boy. Everyone liked him. I was so saddened when I learned he had passed away.
That's a great story! You must've been so proud to see him in such a classic film! He handled his part really well! I loved the scene where he was the only one in the Lizzie's apt. that something was wrong. Then his famous line;"SHIT! THE CHICKS ARE PACKED! THE CHICKS ARE PACKED!".
I was suddenly brought in as a “photo double” for Thomas G. Waites (who’d been fired) for a few shots in the subway car, all you see is my back. James Remar didn’t hide his disdain for me. Marcelino and David Harris sensed my unease and did what they could to make me feel welcome. I always appreciated that. RIP Marcelino.
@@TimWil awe I’m sorry to hear. Sounds like James was such a prick as Ajax would’ve been. I could imagine maybe it was just cause they all became friends at that point with Thomas. Nice of Marcelino
It would be a sin to remake this movie . As popular as remakes are becoming I pray it never happens ! Because in my mind NOTHING can and would ever compare .
The first would be like 'Judge Dredd'.
The 2030 remake would be 'Dredd'.
It still would be cool though even though there’s no way it’ll beat the original
The only thing that needs a remake is the game, the movie doens't need to be touched at all.
If the critics didn’t like this movie, that shows you how much critics know. This film is a classic!
THE WARRIORS... I'VE HONESTLY NEVER MET ANYONE WHO DISLIKES THIS MOVIE.. A CLASSIC MASTERPIECE FOR EVER💜
My "brother " who is 10 years older than me , hated it because I liked it.He is probably saying he likes it now if someone of " importance " likes it .He is rotten to the core.
If you were around when the warriors came out in the movies you had a great childhood.
I was sophomore in a public high school in the Bronx when this movie came out.
Im 18 so I wasnt even in the womb when this movie came out 😹it's one of my favorite childhood movie and the video game was amazing aswell.
One of the best movies you have to see before you die!
You are Right
My dad took me to see this movie in 1979 ,I was 6 years old. I've seen it over 100 times since then. Definitely one of my all time favorite movies!! Never gets old.
Lucky.
I was born in 73 and this was my favorite movie as a kid. I remember "Warriors, come out to playeeeyyeah". The bottles clinging together. Good times.
Rembrandt was my favourite I can't believe he died from cancer :(
it was aids related cancer, it's like saying that Freddie Mercury is died for pneumonia.
@@scaccu for the record, AIDS more often than not isn't the exact cause of death, it destroys the immune system and allows the easiest illness to kill you. In his case, he had cancer and AIDS wiped out any resistance he had
I met Luther (Come out to play) in 2003 while living on the Upper Easr Side in NYC at a grocery store. I approached him and told him I loved the movie and thought he was amazing. He (David Patrick Kelly) was super nice and we talked for about 5 minutes. Nice guy! This is one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time.
" Remember Sully when I told you I'd kill you last?? I lied"
“You see Warriors! You see what you get when you mess with the Orphans!?”
Whole lotta hype because they were wimps
😅
They were the easiest gang they rolled thru, even the damn Punks on rollerskates put up a better fight than they did lol
This film is as iconic as Star Wars, Ghostbusters, Alien to me. And is still in my top fave movies. Lots of memories here. Alot of slang friends and I still use to this day . GREAT MOVIE!!!
Rest In Peace all the actors who died I have played the game and in the future getting the blue ray disk of the movie.
@جبنة حلاوة طحنية زيتون
I have the warriors on my ps4
@جبنة حلاوة طحنية زيتون
I mean Bully is like the warriors but in school
This movie is so iconic, from the actors to the music, the plot and sets, the cinematography and stunts, everything is the epitome of the era, and yet the film itself is still somehow more than the sum of its parts. I'm sure it is just the nostalgia talking, but there is something undeniably irresistible about this raggedy bunch of misfits battling their way across the concrete jungle against insurmountable odds and winning, all in a single night
This movie would have been only good without the music score, Barry DeVorzon's score is that good it elevates the movie to greatness.
@@soundsgreatentertainment4203 Yeah I agree. It does elevate the movie. Great score by DeVorzon.
40th - NEVER - but it's true - I was only 21 when this came out. Although some America critics turned their noses up a bit - here in the UK our critics thought it was great - and they were right. RIP to all the cast who have passed away - far too many.
I was eight when this came out. Im 48 and still one of my all time favorites.
I love this movie one of my favorites of all times,I have it in dvd,and Xbox game too....Unfortunately today movies are really trash.
Marcelino Sanchez looks like he was a real nice guy, full of sparkle and fun to be around. It's a shame he died so young. Frozen in time, he's the only one pretty much immortalised now as still being young like he was back in _'The Warriors'._
I know a lot of dead people but it actually hurt hearing some of these actors died young or have passed on. Actually, just like the movie, they will live on forever. Best damn movie ever.
The Warriors ... The Best ... I was born here in the city , with my back against the wall , nothing grows and life ain’t very pretty and know ones there to catch you when you fall .... good news boppers ...
After The Warriors, I'd say James Remar had the most successful acting career. At least he always seemed to show up the most in movies and TV shows I watched.
Yes he definitely did have the most successful acting career.
What about Mercedes Ruehl? She won an Oscar afterwards.
@@WitchettyMan I think he meant just out of all the guys themselves. But you’re right, I have seen her in a lot of things too!
My Grandfather was a Extra for the Movie He was only 23 but now He is 61 to this day in 2019
Trey Pelletier lucky man big up grandad
Lucky
Oh wow. This was one of my very favorite movies when I was a kid!
Classic, yes.
*"WARRIORSSss, come out to playeeee aaaayye"*
We're all here in this anniversary and nobody...is wasting ...nobody. That is a miracle!
Good one.
Yep, miracles did not last long...the villain always mess it up!
"And miracles is the way things ought to be".
Rembrandt we will remember him as a good man on the earth
Wish he got a lot spray paint at otherside world.
A true classic!!! 🗣️"Caaan Yooou Dig Iiiiiiiiit?!"
Can you count suckas!
"You Warriors are good, real good!" The best!
Rip Rembrandt
Who honestly gives a ship what the critics say? If they know so much, why aren't they making movies?
*ship*
This movie was ahead of it's time.........
Anybody who doesn't have a Warriors movie as part of their collection, are not Warriors themselves.
HA nice ;)
Amen preach it brother.. CAN YOU DIG IT.???
When this movie came out on HBO I swear we watched it everytime it came on and I'll still watch it till this day! One of my all-time favorites!!👍🔥❤
still rocks after 41 years.God bless Warriors
This is one of my all time FAVORITE MOVIES!! Every one of my siblings loves this and assault on precinct 13! What memories! It was a great movie with alot of talented people acting in a very physical roll! The clacking of the beer bottles to "Warriors, come out to play yeah! AWESOME!! THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES GUYS!!
im 50 and i remember watching this over and over. we didn't know if it was a bad or a good film. it was just a film. and we loved it. it was my staple diet along with escape from new york and the thing.
Snake was cool back in the day!!
@@anthonyg6827 in real life he was dating the chock full o nuts girl. they had a baby i think. susan hubley. yeah, my golden years was when HBO first came out and they played the same 5 movies all month and EFNY was one. watched it almost every other day. "Romero" was my all time favorite character
Quick story: About 6 years ago, I was on the subway 4 train line: afternoon travel in my home town (NYC). I was sitting by myself in the two-person corner seat in the train car. Across from me was an older man that looked so familiar to me, but I couldn't wrap my mind around who it was! So, I inconspicuously stared at him without trying to be weird. After about 3 minutes, I think I got it! I went on my phone and typed in IMDB. I was able to match the face with the person that was sitting across from me! It DAVID PATRICK KELLY: Luther the antagonist leader from the Rouges gang in The Warriors! Now, New Yorkers are usually known for NEVER getting starstruck. We see celebrities all the time. However, there are rare times when we do! and this was it for me! He was sitting with a very pretty young lady, perhaps his daughter who looked about 30-35 years of age. kind of resembled him. So, i was kinda nervous but I just wanted to say the famous line: "Warriors, come out and play-ya!" But I didn't say anything ..Anyway, I didn't want to bother him . But I did a side stare at him picturing my favorite scenes with him. However, I left him alone and went back to my private life again. but i was really happy to see someone from one of my favorite movie. Hopefully I'll see and meet another great character from THE WARRIORS. who knows. Anyway, I'll never forget that wonderful quiet experience.
That's cool.
Gave me chills when the slide came to Sanchez. My heart goes out to his family. Sure it was many years ago that he passed but I won’t forget my father who passed away from the devil called cancer February 5, 1993.
I'm sorry about your father.
True story, I was working at a theater in the Denver (Thornton) area when this movie came out. We had a special midnight showing, the only one in the whole Denver metro area. At the time, no one knew much about the movie other than the previews shown leading up to it. Naturally, on a Friday night, who wants to hang out until 2am for a movie, we had better things to do, but worked we had to. We all figured maybe 20 or 30 people would show up, a crowd hardly worth staying around for. At about 11:00pm, I looked out into the area where people were waiting (the theater was in a shopping mall) and saw about what I expected, 20 or so people. We all went about getting ready to open at 11:30, another worker and I checked the exit doors inside the theater itself to make sure it was closed. We opened the door and there was now a line of people going out of the mall and around the building past the exit doors, and let me tell you, every wannabe gang banger, sidewalk commando, tough guy were waiting to get into the theater. Holy cow, it was nerve wracking to say the least knowing that there could be equal amount of violence in the theater than what was going to be on the screen. The local police department was not notified of the movie time, so they never came around, doubt they even knew the movie was playing. But, despite the film breaking about half way through (it got fixed quicker than I ever seen a film get spliced before) and some guys throwing bottles around now and then, it came off without much trouble at all, thankfully. It ended up being one of the better nights working at the movies. And it was a good movie to watch as well.
Look at all the people posting on this board for a 40 year old gang movie. That is a testament to how great and meaningful the Warriors is! Can you dig it? CAN YOU DIIIGGGG IT!!!
I love this movie and the game in 2005. I grew up with this stuff and cherish it as something apart of me.
Also, rest in peace to Rembrandt. He was my favorite warrior member from both movie and game. Shame we lost him to cancer...
Rest in peace, our dear writer
Brilliant movie... Great acting and plot.. RIP to those that have passed on.🏆🏅💯💯💯
David Patrick Kelly said that “warriors come out and play” was related to him being bullied when he was younger and that he carried that with him for years and this movie and it’s director let him turn that negative energy into something positive and came up with one of the best and well remembered lines in movie history.
He went on to say that scene put that bullying incident behind him and it no longer haunted him
AMEN
amen +2!!!
P Hoffa that’s awesome. I did not know that. Thank you for sharing.
take off ya colors and you can walk thru @@patrickverona3098
Some of the gangs were so silly, but that's part of what made this movie great.
Hehe,..but in 78-79 there was some silly gangs around..me,.. we saw some,..which freaked us,..really!!
This brings back memories. Anyone that gives a thumbs down to this video doesn't appreciate movie classics.
This Movie is one of my Top10 favourites and always will be. I thank each and everyone of these great people for their contributions. I get a tear well up every time I read that one had passed on.
80's babies let us pay homage.👍🏾
My favorite movie still to this day
R.I.P. Rembrandt
You act all happy when you say casts die
Makes you think how fast time has gone by !
Agree
This is still one of my favorite movies.
It's so relaxing and uplifting to confirm that all the cast members were simply performing, and that most of them are still alive and kicking, just the same as most of us are.
Back in the day, I used to think that Deborah was so hot!
And she still is!
I really hope that Hollywood doesn't get the bright idea to remake this classic! Because it would suck!
Warriors!
Come out to play!
This movie is amazing and the game by rockstar is even more awesome....rip Marcelino Sanchez 😔
Video games, lol.
Great fun game
I was watching the Warriors in 1979 at my local cinema (UK) with my mates it’s really amaze us, then next day I did came back again to watch for second time.
Me too
" You Warriors are good, real good!
" The Best!"
" The rest is ours!"
Love this movie so much that I’ve watched it at least over 200 times for the past 30 years. 😊
It never gets old.......
SHIT! THE CHICKS ARE PACKED! THE CHICKS ARE PACKED!
The movie and the playstation 2 game: two master pieces♡
Thanks for everything!
Great movie. I still have it on cassette
My brother has it on DVD
Memories of the drive-in. I saw this movie numerous times. It was one of my faves.....a long time ago. Sad we get old.
Same.I used to hear people say 'life is too short', now I say it. Oh boy, we need to enjoy life more and worry less about dying.
One of the best movies ever produced! THE WARRIORS is part of my life!
God bless these actors and film crew. Dead or alive you all are forever young in this film.
I first saw this in 1979 and still think it a fantastic film.. Way ahead of its time..
An absolute classic movie. Part of my youth, takes me right back every time I watch it .
Had the same though and flash back of sneaking into the theater to see it made it that more memorable. Next weekend me and my mates had basketball bats and chains ready to fight the maroi gangs. AaarrrgThe good old days lol
May their souls rest in peace,and a thank you to everyone involved,for making this classic movie.
I was 12 when that movie was released and i still ask my buddies today, "Can you dig it?" 😁
CAN YOU DIG IT!
SUCKA!!!
I found out about the movie through the video game
I was nine and saw this movie at the Drive in
@@burmanski8014 can you dig it!!!!!
Wow...40 years went by like.....THAT!
Crazy isnt it? TIME IS REALLY SHORT. Life is short. DON'T WASTE IT.
I never get tired watching it.
Same

Hard to believe Rembrandt passed away so early.
Hey Boppers,
My name is Moïse Morancy. I’m the writer, director and producer on this proof of concept. I also star as Cleon in this. If you’re like me, someone who appreciates and loves “The Warriors,” you know in 2005, Rockstar created a video game based on the cult classic and gave a backstory to how the gang was formed. Myself and others believe this needs to be remade as a prequel. No one can hold a candle to the originators but I wanted to pay homage and give them their flowers. Because they weren’t good…they were “the best.”
I hope you enjoy! 🙏🏿
It should be made into a prequel. I think many fans would love to see one. Too bad Netflix, Amazon and the ilk have got their heads stuck on "Superheroes." They won't invest in any other genre.They say Batgirl bombed before the masses got to see it. It's been yanked. My opinion is these so-called experts don't know what they're talking about.The critics hated The Warriors, its now a cult classic. I dug it from day one. The new Warriors would have to have lots of nudity(sex), fighting, cursing, explosions, hotties( both men and women) and lots of tattoos, not a single one in the first.
Can you dig it?
The Warriors DEFINITELY deserves a prequel. And your trailer was DOPE! Hopefully it can become a full movie.
Your project is excellent. Truly well made. Good luck with it.
@@leequinn2733 I can definitely dig it.
It's amazing how many of the actors are still with us, compared to other films from the time.
This is an absolute classic!!!
The warriors is a classic movie , warriors come out to play is a classic line from the movie. 👍👍👍
One of the greatest movies ever made, period.
Nostalgia. Nostalgia at its finest
Can't believe it was thar long ago love this film and the soundtrack
Most of them have aged pretty well, Deborah van Valkenburgh is an attractive lady.
That woman not only broke her wrist during filming (hence the blue coat),but she even took a bat to the head when Swan went to throw the bat at the cop (Sonny Landham). She literally was a "real tough chick"!
They filmed this in my neighborhood in Brooklyn. My friends and I stood out on a Friday night and watched them film the scene when the car blew up. That was also only a few blocks from where they shot the climactic ending to the car chase scene in the French Connection years before.
When you're a french kid, you're amazed by this film. Now, I'm 48 years old, I watched this movies 2 or 3 times and it's still a great memory, like Mad Max, Terminator, Conan... "Warriors, Come out to play ! "
One of my favorite movies of all time 🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍
The warriors is a classic movie also in Brazil. I watched it for the first time in 1987 and I always remember it.
I think I speak for a lot of people that seen this film in the late 70s or early 80s......... warriors is an absolutely massive part of my childhood..... love love this film ❤️❤️
Thank you for this. A great memory and to see them now. Sad to see so many have passed... from cancer!
You're welcome.
So glad to see the love still going for this film 40 years onward.
The capture at 0:12 is so cold. the combination of fantasy and street Was totally missed by the critics. Thats why, in my opinion, it can't be remade today simply, it's creators imagination was so far out there no one as made "the wizard of oz" type correlation. I will go as far as to say it is a visual masterpiece.
I hope they never remake it or even try
@Joel Johnson yeah but you know these new age producers and directors they would mess up change up something that'll destroy it
It is one one of those movies no matter how many times you see it. You will watch again and again
Rip Rembrandt, and all the rest Rembrandt was my favorite i think he was the funniest kid in the movie the first part i laughed at was at the cemetery scene when he was busy marking the spot but the others left him.
"Hey, wait for me!"
"Shit! The chicks are packed! The chicks are packed!"
That was fantastic to hear about those actors. Condolences to the families and friends of the individuals who passed away!!! I was born and raised in NY in the 60s and 70s spent a lot of time at Coney Island, and on the subways. It was a very impactful movie for me. Thanks to everyone that made it happen!!
a,classic Michael beck still looks,good
@@donnamiller5222 Yes, For the most part, they all maintained themselves pretty well. Maybe diet, exercise, positive thinking, and probably some touching up of the photos...
thanks for showing not only the warriors but the other gangs members as well
You're welcome.
I loved this film and soundtrack. I was 12 when this came out and in the Summer holidays we used to buy a thing called the "Red bus rover" I seem to remember it cost 50p. It used to give you free travel on buses and the tube in London for the day. The Tube was our playground and we used to chant "Warriors come out to play-ay" as we were walking down the connecting passageways on the underground and it used to echo beautifly. Great memories..."Can you dig it"
Man the soundtrack is so nostalgic and then with some of them dying so long ago just hits harder
Vastly underrated movie.
@Rob Cracker I'm guessing he means by the critics . Those pretentious fools know nothing.
The Warrios is anything but underrated.
"You see what you get when you mess with the Orphans!"
“They write about our raids in the paper”
Dude proceeds to pull a newspaper article out of his pocket on demand...
This give a big smile on my face and a frown as well because some of them died because of cancer R.I.P.
Some of them didn't die of cancer. One of them died of Aids from drowning in vjj, Well it's was cancer. but the other one that could of been avoided if they would of found out about sooner..just like freddy mercury faith.
@@hotpopcorncake Marcellino didn't die of aids, he died of cancer. He had aids which compromised his immune system which led to him getting cancer. So in a way the aids did cause it but it was cancer complications that killed him. Also, pretty sure it wasn't because he was drowning in the VEEJ, rather the butt or needles.
@@MrJaybeezy123 Oh thank for clarifying it. I remember seeing in comment section, People were debating if he die of Cancer or Aids. I wikipedia his information back and forward tons of times, They kept changing his information (like i seen thousands of times). But at first I saw he died of Aids.
A fantastic film, watched when I was a teenager myself. One of the ‘classics’ in my DVD collection, along with American Graffiti, Animal House and Blade Runner, all from that era.
I still enjoy the movie have it on dvd
I will check it out
Underrated, late 1970's movie!
This means I was fifteen when the Warriors came out and I still love the movie today. Have it on DVD!!
Marcelino Sanchez, Rembrandt, was my cousin Tim's lover. They were as in love as any two people could be. He would come to family gatherings. One time, my family went to the house of my aunt's friend, a middle aged woman who was taking singing lessons. She had a recital in her living room and all her family and friends were there. Her singing was horrible. Something better suited for a Bugs Bunny cartoon. Marcelino, Tim, my friend Matt, and I were all stoned on pot and couldn't stop laughing. At one point Marcelino was hiding behind the curtains, laughing his brains out. That was so long ago. Marcelino and my cousin Tim both died of aids. Update: I just showed my aunt this comment, and she reminded me that she, too, was laughing her brains out at her friend's singing! Marcelino was a really good guy.
Sorry to hear that man. Long live Tim and Rembrandt
Thanks for the memory.
Cool story
Thanks for sharing this. Marcelino was awesome and so good looking. I wish I could have known him.
