Out of all the Warriors confrontations during the film which would you say is the most enjoyable.

We've had a poll that is a little similar to this before but, that was almost a year ago and we have a lot more members now.

I've gone for the Turnbulls as i'm always disappointed with The furies being such wimps.

That's a tough one. I voted for the Orphans confrontation, 'cos they're still all together at that point and I love the dialogue in that scene.

Gotta go with Furies even though they're wimps. The set up after the Warriors bust out of the station and the chase scene are reason enough.

I went with the Punks for best overall fight, even though Ajax, Cleon & Fox were missing. At least it was a fight and not just a confrontation.

Turnbull A.C.'s - Not a single punch thrown. Not even a real confrontation, just a short chase scene.

Orphans - Some good dialogue, but again not much in the way of fighting. The molitov coctail was cool but c'mon, the Lizzies had bigger balls than the Orphans (and some of them looked it too :wink: )

Baseball Furies - 2nd best fight scene in the movie and had a nice sureal feeling to it. Sure the Furies went out like wimps, but at least they put up a fight.

Lizzies - I know some people like this scene, but please - anyone who would let 3 unarmed guys get away from a locked room when you have guns and have taken them completely by surprise doesn't even deserve honorable mention.

By the way Fox, you left out the confrontation with the Rogues. While maybe not the best, it certainly is one of the most memorable.

Well, up until that point, what with "Warriors, come out and play - ay and all. :wink:

By the way, were you able to check out the warriors game ad in Virgin Megastore when you were in the city?

I'm surprised you were able to get any photos at all. Since 9/11 cops and security guards are real uptight about people taking photos/videos near or in buildings. Like you were plotting to blow up Virgin or something. :roll:

well for me, it was the punks fight. whilst you can give some credit to the furies for there one on one attitude to a fight, tell me where these days you see that kinda situation occur.

sure enough the movie is late 70's based, but too me, the punks fight reflects a real gang fight, everybody on everybody. too me also, the punks fight just feels/looks like a real fight, whereas the furies chase has more suspense than the fight itself!

plus i liked it when snow whacked one of the punks with the baseball bat in the guts, then gave him an uppercut with it straight after... and he head butted the wall....go snow!

But whats with rembrandts performance, sprays the leads punk with the paint can, punches him once, then he sits next to mercy for the rest of the fight and watches....what gives rembrandt? just as well snow, swan & cochsie are there to take up the slack...
"maybe we oughta worry about who set that god damn fire"............fox

Punks is the BEST scene, nothing but punches and stuff breaking all over the place; definitely worth the days and days they put into filming it.

It's gotta be the Furies. Especially the part when one of the Furies was standing there minding his own business and Ajax just knocks him down.

That's the only problem I have with that fight. The guy just stands there like a dumb, lifeless videogame baddie, waiting to get hit. He was useless, he might as well have been reading the paper.

Yeah, I know. :D The dude should have stayed at home if he wasn't going to help out the other guys.
