The Warriors Movie Site Forum

Here goes: Dorothy leaves home and then wants desperately to get back there. Along the way there are unusual groups that she encounters, and in some cases, fights. Travel is done mostly along a straight line. There is a "magical" figure who turns out to be a lot of fancy talk. The whole way back, there is a nasty, cackily, antagonist causing trouble. At the end, there is a big goodbye.

Good comparison, though I would like the Oz characters to look like these: http://www.spawn.com/features/monsters2/ :badgrin:

Or like this http://www.ozf5.com

Excellent! I had never seen that before. Very cool.

Maybe we should cue up Dark Side of the Moon and watch The Warriors!! .

What's up Gonz, Emi, that would be a killer movie to watch along with that LP, not cd, LP baby, I wanna hear that old vynil sound. I haven't done this in a long time, you star the record after the second roar from the MGM lion right?

Hey Lions, my man. I think that is it. Here is an article I came across;

I've always thought of Warriors as a Homer s Odissey kind of movie. On the book, Ulisses is trying to go home after the war in Troy, his leader, Aquiles is dead... on the way home he and his soldiers upset one of the gods, Poseydon, who reminds me of Masay a little bit, and makes them bounce from island to island (enemy territory) ,fight their way outta there and deal with themselves on difficult situations... there are even some mermaids (lizzies, cop on the bench) as baits to cause trouble among the men. And like a dj we all know... Athena, a goddess who has, and shares all kinds of information plays a big part on the story.
Btw, does anybody know who discovered the Oz/dark side conection?
