prismone Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Even worse, people will go see that shit in theatres too. Then the dumbasses will catch the original warriors on TV and be like "hey the copied that other warriors movie" happened with sampled music already and now its moving to the movies. no one can be original anymore.

El Mamerro Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Isn't this one of those directors that likes to shake the camera around all fast and basically does movies in fast montages with intense music playing? I hope he doesn't do this in this movie. Yup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earmuffs Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 i took this photo for the "show me your vinyl" thread. if you buy vinyl, i recommend buying this warriors record. it has all the music you want, plus a ton of audio clips including cyrus's speech, the "what we gonna do now..." bit, some bopper reports, and a couple other gems. original pressing right here.... also have some action figures.. This is one of my favoite movies and i first whatched in like the 2nd grade.. Always rented it on Capacitance Electronic Disc man Im old... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earl broclo ESQ Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Mamerro --i don't know if tim burton could handle the warriors. i don't know why, but i think his mind would end up destroying it. planet of the apes is one example, but charlie and the chocolate factory is yet another. i think taymor has a good idea of artistic design, but at the same time, she might need some restraints. although, if she was to take influence from the original, she probably would do a good job. i just don't know how she would direct something in the action genre. as much as i think he's overhyped, i'd wonder what robert rodriguez could do with this. that dude would definitely need restraints. i can only picture swan doing backflips and shooting rocket launchers. maybe if he took the integrity of "el mariachi" and put it into this script, it would work. if anything though, to keep it like the original, give the script to richard donner. he'll keep it campy. wait, is he dead?

shitting Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hey everyone..... stop getting so amped over movies coming out that are using some old lisence. It's why mainstream hollywood blockbusters are so god-awful shit these days. They already have the fan base and they don't need to make it half decent to draw crowds.

earl broclo ESQ Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 you know what movie hollywood action producers need to remake --gymkata. seriously, i used to love that movie. i watched it 24 times during the sixth grade. i counted. i watched it when i was like 24, and it was pretty bad. now if they remade this movie, with tony ja in it the lead role --it would be great.

Theo Huxtable. Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 i'm willing to bet they're going to use the blue line train... since the director indicated that the movie starts in long beach, and that the warriors make their way north... well the blue line connects downtown l.a. to long beach from north to south. i bet they transfer to the subway (red line) and then make their way to venice beach.

Mercer Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 There is no possible way to remake that movie well even if it was still set in NYC. I wonder if the tagger warrior Rembrant will still be a homo toy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earl broclo ESQ Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 Just what am I checking out? /nh Sorry about that --the image link died. it's a book called: "Taking the train" it's a historical look at the 70's and 80's train era. i'm about a 150 pages into it now, and it's a pretty extensive look at how NYC officials, press, and public approached the graffiti "problem." as well as an arguement against the negativity that was shed on the artists. it's really well written, like a text book style. i recommend it for anyone who's really interested in that era of NYC, not just the graffiti either. it goes into the "downfall" of urban youth, and the city. check amazon, if you can't find it, PM me.

Tyler Durden Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 That book is amazing. It does a pretty good job at pointing out how silly the whole "broken windows theory" is. Which has been the thing that most places fall back on when trying to point out how evil graffiti is. Also, if you want a REALLY in depth look at the how/why of the way the city, and it's surrounding areas, ended up the way they are.... read this: "The most absorbing, detailed, instructive, provocative book ever published about the making and raping of modern New York City and environs and the man who did it, about the hidden plumbing of New York City and State politics over the last half-century, about the force of personality and the nature of political power in a democracy. A monumental work, a political biography and political history of the first magnitude." --Eliot Fremont-Smith, New York Really, it's a good introduction to the things discussed in "Taking The Train". It explains just about everything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Durden Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 i enjoyed it because i was looking for a book that approached graffiti from a sociological standpoint for quite awhile. i found that reading it, i would be yelling "oh snap!" at the book whenever dude pointed out how laughably stupid a lot of the theories are about how graffiti single-handedly destroys neighborhoods and the city. seriously though, everyone NEEDS to read "the power broker". it ties into graffiti in that it explains how primarily one man was able to amass so much power that he built nearly every highway/parkway in the city and outlying counties, basically reshaped the city to HIS liking and said "go to hell" to every occupant of the city (with the exceptions of some of it's wealthier neighborhoods). if you've ever wondered why the BQE avoids brooklyn heights, why the only heated swimming pool in the city is in harlem, why the south bronx was trampled over and torn apart, why every parkway bridge is too low for busses and trucks to pass, why there was no attention paid to the subway system (which led, in turn, to the legendary "deferred maitenence" era....), why the city fell apart in the 70's, and how one person was largely responsible for all of it..... do yourself a favor and read this book. it's over 1000 pages (edited down from an original manuscript of 3000...) but everything in it is pertinent and absolutely amazing.
