Tony Scott is Changing The Warriors
Source: MyMovies.net October 11, 2005


Domino director Tony Scott tells MyMovies.net that his remake of Walter Hill's 1979 action film, The Warriors, will take place on the West coast.

The original, which was set in New York City, centered on the Warriors gang being wrongly accused of assassinating a rival gang leader during a truce and being forced to make their way home through hostile territory.

"I see it as 'Kingdom Of Heaven' meets 'The Warriors' because with these gangs, instead of having twenty or thirty guys, I'm going to have three thousand, five thousand guys in the LA river beds and it's going to look like LA during the riots," Scott told the site. He added, "I love the original movie, that's why I'm in doing this but I'm not going to copy the original".

Scott expects to start working on the Paramount and MTV Films project in 2006.

Somewhere out there on that horizon
Out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be somethin' better
but there's nowhere else in sight
It's survival in the city
When you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity
When you're down, that's where you'll stay
In the city, oh, oh.
In the city

I was born here in the city
With my back against the wall
Nothing grows, and life ain't very pretty
No one's there to catch you when you fall
Somewhere out on that horizon
Faraway from the neon sky
I know there must be somethin' better
And I can't stay another night
In the city, oh, oh.
In the city

I doubt the Eagles will be on the soundtrack.

I can't believe they are remaking such a classic.

I don't know about you guys, but my favorites were the Baseball Furies.

It sounds like it's going to SUX!

Remakes suck balls and this one will suck as well.

If they ever remake the Goonies or Karate Kid, I just may lose it.

Speaking of The Warriors, I'm looking forward to the video game! I have never ever owned a game unit...EVER! But after seeing this..I'm considering it! :lol
