A little "Warriors" trivia... Filming was primarily at night in the streets of NY which meant REAL gang members were constantly around production and they weren't too happy about the movie being made. They threw bricks, stole movie equipment, vandalized production vehicles, and even threatened actors. Finally, in an attempt to quell the situation, the studio started hiring those gang members as security to "protect" the equipment and vehicles. Many of those "extras" in the park at the concave were actual NY gang members. Roger Hill (Cyrus) was a last minute replacement. The guy who was originally hired to play Cyrus was an actual gang member and the night before filming the "Can you dig it" scene he "mysteriously disappeared" and was never seen again. Jery Hewitt (Baseball Fury leader) had 3-ribs broken accidentally while filming that fight scene with the Warriors in the park.
that villain is hilarious..warriors come out and play!...i love true villains with no chance to turn good and embracing their wicked side showing it off flaunting it in films so you know who the bad guy is and how much you should hate him and then he can just be a character rather then some redeemable anti hero or tragic figure where the film has to waste time with exposition or flashbacks to make you sympathize or see their pov...i like the true bad guys who will well they just own up to it so if they die in the end you don't have to feel any guilt or sorry for them..they brought it upon themself....love that and wish more films did that.....a show has time to redeem a villain..a movie does not
I was so caught up looking up the "R. Mutt 1917" on Macaulay's shirt (reference to Duchamp's "Fountain", so literally calling himself a urinal) that I totally missed this. Thank you.
Hilarious that Culkin is wearing a Duchamp “Fountain” t-shirt...which was originally exhibited in front of a painting titled...”The Warriors.” Well played, sir!
The director said in the DVD extras that he used the background story of the Spartan 300 for this movie... and he also wanted it to be more of a comic book movie so he has a directors cut with comic strip fade aways.
It's actually based on The Anabasis by Xenophon, which chronicles a Greek mercenary army hired by Cyrus the Younger to conquer Persia, and their journey home after that goes awry. Well, the movie is based on the book (which is great btw), which in turn is based on The Anabasis
Miscellaneous Mind wouldn’t be the same without the original actors, although if they remade the game with current graphics and more stuff that would be incredible.
I would love a really cool art-house remake of the original, done in the style of like the Suspiria remake. Where you don't try and re-create it, but you take the concept and do something wildly different and imaginative with it.
All jokes aside, these guys nailed it. The warriors is such a great film. Underrated. That scene with the prom kids on the subway might be my favorite from it.
@@Zancoth remember having a trailer for the game on a pcgames disc. Probably watched that video 50 times. Watched Spoony play the game many years ago. He had some good long letsplays..
I owned that game briefly when I was a kid. Could never get it to actually run on any of my PC's though!! Phantasmagoria was another great FMV game. Favourite period of gaming for me!
I discovered The Warriors through the Playstation 2 game based on it. Me and my friend watched the film, and holy moly were we blown away. It's a perfect combination of low-budget creative corniness, as well as some really clever film-making and ambience/world building. One of the best soundtracks ever made, too.
The beginning of The Warriors is always my go-to example on how to start a movie, the whole movie is great but the about seven minute long prologue is just perfection.
@@Jishere232 I did research, this is untrue. He’s also lived in a 3 million dollar apartment in Manhattan since 1999. Which he bought outright. He doesn’t worry about rent or a mortgage. And I’m sure that apt is worth more now too.
He did turn up as a character on Babylon 5 one episode. Man, I wouldn't mind seeing RLM do a re:view on B5. Maybe a series of the weirder sci-fi shows of the 90s like Lexx and Earth2

They had a thing on the local news here in Milwaukee about a week ago about how Macaulay Culkin has been sighted here multiple times over the past few months. Apparently he's been visiting us quite a bit here
@@jimm7346 Honestly since Mac is just doing his website...I see no reason why he wouldn't become a semi-permanent member. Clearly, they have eluded to the RLM guys hanging out with him outside of just the filming.
Completely agree. Nothing makes me smile more than watching him talk about movies and video games. It's even better when I'm not looking for him but somehow find him organically.
You nailed it, the Sentient Mustard! Both films have enormous atmosphere and stylish filmmaking, but Snake Plissken and the characters he encounters are so much more entertaining and worth rooting for than Blade Runner's. Escape From New York has style, humor and heart.
@Dangerz Own its basically a cyberpunk western. John Carpenter only had like 14 million to make it in a burned out part of St Louis. Definition of badass. My bad it was only 6 million dollar budget
The novel it's based on was based on the Ancient Greek Anabasis of Xenophon. It recounts Xenophon's expedition to Persia to help Cyrus the younger seize the throne, but the plot fails and the Greeks have to fight their way out of Persia with literally everyone trying to kill them.
They shot the Turnbull AC's school bus scene in my neighborhood, East New York, Brooklyn. I was around 7 or 8yrs old. And every gang at the time would head over to the set to try to get in that scene. It was crazy.
I love The Warriors I was standing behind a guy in a store wearing a Warriors vest and I said Warriors come out to playayyy. He turns with this surprised look on his face
I'd love to see the Safdie Brothers (Good Time, Uncut Gems) direct a remake. They understand New York, gritty filmmaking, tense races against time, chase scenes, colorful characters, and would likely put a terrifying spin on the gangs, grounding them in a bit more believable circumstance.
They understated just how lore building the game was. The movie part of the game is short compared to the rest of the game which is all about events prior to the movie. They even had 5 flashback missions to show how each member joined
Hey Boppers, My name is Moise 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! 🙏🏿
I just checked out the trailer and it looks fantastic! I really hope it goes far as I'd love to see the full version. Do you guys have a patreon or something where I can help fund it?
Hey. I went to your channel and had a look. Some aspects are impressive but there are a few issues that could be improved upon, the most glaring one being the editing. You need to shorten the video by a couple of minutes and mix the dialogue better with some of the visuals. You also need a second unit, doing pick-up shots. You could really do something special with a few more changes here and there. Also, some of the actors aren't great, so it does occasionally look amateurish. Overall, though, it looks like an interesting project.
There was a video game based on The Warriors by Rockstar Games (the creators of GTA, Red Dead Redemption, Manhunt, and many great games) It was a good game.
im 22 so a 00s kid but grew up with the older times so i watched this movie for the first time when i was just a kid on my grandparents VHS copy of the film, loved it ever since
Recently downloaded it from the PSN store, I think I was about 14 when it came out, bloody amazing game. I remember my Da had the movie on VHS when I was wee, was amazed by the artwork on the cover. One of my favourite movies definitely, I hate what Walter Hill did with the directors cut. Why Walter? Why? By the way, another great movie of his, The Long Riders.
I was given The Warriors on VHS by a nextdoor neighbor back when I was a kid in the 90s but I didn't watch it fully through till I was 11 and I was obsessed with it, I even got the PS2 game back in 05 and even got the soundtrack, it's a classic man.
Very cool and fun video fellas. On the subject of the Baseball Furies: in Greek literature the Erinyes (also known as the Furies) were underworld deities who would take vengeance on those who had sworn a false oath. Seems fitting as in their understanding of the situation the Warriors came in under a banner of truce and foreswore their oath by killing Cyrus. That the Furies were unable to take down the Warriors is a sign of their innocence.
I believe the furies would take vengeance on those who committed a blood crime, as in killing a family member. Which was basically the worst crime you could commit in the Greek world.
Fun fact is that this movie is a loose adaptation of (among other things) an Ancient Greek historical event where 10,000 Greeks are hired as mercenaries by the brother of the Persian king to help him usurp the throne. They march all the way from Greece to the middle of the Persian Empire to fight a battle, but during it the brother dies and the 10,000 Greeks pretty much have to fight there way back to Greece through 1,000s of miles of hostile territory. Similar premise and some of the characters are the same. Plus the brother's name is also Cyrus
Mac's understanding of cinema and movie culture is pretty deep. I could hang out with this guy. Not because he's famous but because we could talk for days. I'm glad he's turned his life around. He's everywhere now. Kudos to him.
It took me for it to click that this was Culkin, he's just so chill and happy that he get's to talk about movies. You sometimes forget actors are real people to.
My dad always has had the biggest hard on for this film as far back as I remember. He saw it in theaters when it first came out. And honestly, I've always respected him for that. This movie is fucking great.
Yes!!! We need a re:View for The Return!! I do wonder if Jay is avoiding it because he isn’t quite sure what to make of season 3. You could probably spend 4 hours just talking about theories for it
At first i didnt like the game, but when you discover that the movie is the Climatic finale of the game, it rocks. Beat it all in one Blockbuster weekend rental
20:05 "Warrior's come out to play" was actually something that actor's neighbor used to do in his old apartment building back in those days. He said as much in an interview.
This movie is based off the Anabasis (March to the Sea) by Xenophon, not the Odyssey. Cyrus is a reference to Cyrus the younger, a usurper prince who United the western satrapies against his older brother Artaxerxes. Cleon is Clearchus, the Spartan mercenary who’d assumed command of the Greek mercenary band known as the 10,000, only to be assassinated when negotiating his surrender after Cyrus the Younger’s death. Just as the Anabasis ends with the 10,000 arriving at the Greek ruled shores of Trebizond, the warriors ends with them reaching the coast at Coney Island.
It might be structurally based on the Anabasis but it draws at least a tad from the Odyssey/Iliad There's literally a guy named Ajax Mac also has a good point about the Sirens
@@kakroom3407 there’s references to the Iliad/odyssey, but the baseline of the story and setting is clearly based on the Anabasis. All the gangs just represent the various mountain tribes and local armies the 10,000 had to fight their way through to reach the sea.
Started playing with bottles on the mean streets of Coney Island, had a couple of brief conversations with Schwarzenegger, helped run a brothel in the Pacific Northwest... now he's a cleaner for John Wick. I'd say that was a pretty full life, and a damn fine cup of coffee.
the last time i saw mcaulay culkin was back in the 90s, then saw a few pictures of him and thought we lost him, but hell, he's cooler than ever. great chemistry guys, hey Mac! Nice to see you so chill and happy! Big hugs man!
Mac seems like a dude who is both smart and chill at the same time. If I ever run into him when he’s out somewhere, I hope he’d let me buy him a beer and chat for 10 mins.
@@wizzlewazzle9202 Anabasis is about a group of warriors that follow a man called Cyrus deep into enemy territory, where Cyrus is killed. The warriors then have to make their way home through hostile lands, until they reach the shores of the black sea (and the safety of the Greek cities). Ringing any bells? Although the film does also use elements from the Oddysey too.
Jay once said he learned some of the basics of editing from watching Home Alone. Now he is in a video(which he probably edited) reviewing a movie with the guy who starred in Home Alone. he has come full circle.
Cyrus the Younger hired the 10,000 Greek mercenaries to join his homegrown Persian troops in an attempt to take the throne from his brother Artaxerxes. They actually won the battle of Cunaxa, but Cyrus was killed in the process making the whole war irrelevant. The Greek generals went to the Persians to negotiate their safe return to Greece but the Persians murdered them during the negotiations. Being democrats, the Greeks elected Xenophon (and a few others, but they didn't write a book so I don't know who they were) to lead them, and they fought their way out of the middle of the Persian empire, back to the Greek colonies along the Black Sea.

"The Warriors" is based on the Anabasis by Xenophon, about a Greek mercenary army fleeing Persia after a job goes wrong.
Specifically the true story of a mercenary army who went to work for a Achaemenid rebel claimant named Cyrus. Xenophon himself was part of that army.
My Greek professor told me this
@@huberttrocks I highly recommend the accounts xenophob wrote about the experience, extremely interesting story
The March of the Ten Thousand.

He's not technically wrong saying it's Odyssey. Yeah, it's definitely Anabasis, but it does have some Odyssey elements thrown in.
I was hoping Mac would hand Mike a green tshirt and say "you're now officially...an Orphan."
What really matters is... is Jay SMELLING the vest before it cuts back to "Maculkin"?

My name is Moise 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! 🙏🏿
I just checked out the trailer and it looks fantastic! I really hope it goes far as I'd love to see the full version. Do you guys have a patreon or something where I can help fund it?
Yeah man I just checked out your channel
Hey. I went to your channel and had a look. Some aspects are impressive but there are a few issues that could be improved upon, the most glaring one being the editing. You need to shorten the video by a couple of minutes and mix the dialogue better with some of the visuals. You also need a second unit, doing pick-up shots.
You could really do something special with a few more changes here and there.
Also, some of the actors aren't great, so it does occasionally look amateurish.
Overall, though, it looks like an interesting project.
Jay in a bad boy jacket is just adorable
So.. is Mac part of the crew now?
I can dig it!
CAN YOU DIG IT?!
I hope he cultivates mass like Mike and Rich.
Louis Gonzales Stop cultivating and start harvesting!
Im only in my early 20's but my mates and i loved this movie after playing the ps2 and xbox games. The warriors game was also awesome.
For sure that game actually captured the feel of the movie. Alright alright alright
Mack is honestly one of my favorite people on RLM, wish he was a regular!
*Sees Macaulay*
My joy is immeasurable and my day is made
Sees Mcculkin, no more sulkin.
Oh good Mac returned. He was great last time glad to see him back.
He never left. He's been living under the floorboards.
That was strangely wholesome, you hack
There was a video game based on The Warriors by Rockstar Games (the creators of GTA, Red Dead Redemption, Manhunt, and many great games) It was a good game.
David patrick kelly is one of my favorite character actors he is great in dreamscape and the crow dudes a legend.
not going to lie the chemistry here is pretty fuckin good
I feel like I’m cheating on Jay loving Mac this much.
im 22 so a 00s kid but grew up with the older times so i watched this movie for the first time when i was just a kid on my grandparents VHS copy of the film, loved it ever since
It puts a smile on my face to see culkin find happiness and is healthy again.
We have been blessed with more Culk.
I think you meant calk.
You love calk.
I wanna line that Culk up and snort it.
You're all Culkolds
And so am I
Now we need more Max.
Rockstar made an AWESOME beat'em-up videogame of this movie for PS2.
Brain Pains the good old days
They talk about it
Remember the warriors game and then bully rockstar was awesome
oh really? They should have mentioned it in the episode....
@@thefearhawk8805 I fucking made the comment before I had watched the whole episode OK?!?
Good to see Mac back and in good shape.
I can't be the only one who's relived and ecstatic to see Macaulay Culkin finding his second wind!
I love that Mack is just a part of the crew now, I've been smiling all day about it
It's a shame we don't have PreRec anymore because I'd have loved to Jack & Rich play The Warriors on PS2
I'm jonesing to play that again now
God I love that game. It’s probably one of the best video game adaptations of a movie out there.
@@CatOperated It makes the movie more interesting after you play it to I feel like
Great game. Played it with my roommate. It was how I discovered the movie.
Recently downloaded it from the PSN store, I think I was about 14 when it came out, bloody amazing game. I remember my Da had the movie on VHS when I was wee, was amazed by the artwork on the cover. One of my favourite movies definitely, I hate what Walter Hill did with the directors cut. Why Walter? Why?
By the way, another great movie of his, The Long Riders.
I didn realize how cool Macaulay Culkin is.
Also, 4 of those actors would reappear in 48 HRS in 1982. James Remar, David Patrick Kelly, and the late Sonny Landham and Marcelino Lopez.
please make Mac a regular. It's not like he's doing anything anyway. He's perfect for RLM with his in-depth knowledge of being a hack.
He's doing tons of stuff, you make it sound like he's a twitch streamer with 8 followers
@@shopsmart6924 how can I get 8 followers?
@@shopsmart6924
Lots of streamers would kill for those 8 followers.
@@shopsmart6924 Twitch streamers are way more popular than Mac
Absolutely seconding that.
I watched The Warriors on Netflix recently and it was the original theatrical version.
Same, in Australia.
Same on Amazon :)
I love seeing Mac in all these guest appearances lately. Dude is cool af.
I was given The Warriors on VHS by a nextdoor neighbor back when I was a kid in the 90s but I didn't watch it fully through till I was 11 and I was obsessed with it, I even got the PS2 game back in 05 and even got the soundtrack, it's a classic man.
STREETS OF FIRE FINALLY GETS THE SHOUTOUT!
Re:View whennnnnn?
Yes please
Great fucking movie. It's a shame the other two "The Adventures of Tom Cody" movies never happened.
"Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young" :)
Thank God I'm not the only one who remembers that gloriously silly, schlocky movie!
Shout out to Lee Ving, one of the greatest punk rock singers ever
Very cool and fun video fellas. On the subject of the Baseball Furies: in Greek literature the Erinyes (also known as the Furies) were underworld deities who would take vengeance on those who had sworn a false oath. Seems fitting as in their understanding of the situation the Warriors came in under a banner of truce and foreswore their oath by killing Cyrus. That the Furies were unable to take down the Warriors is a sign of their innocence.
I believe the furies would take vengeance on those who committed a blood crime, as in killing a family member. Which was basically the worst crime you could commit in the Greek world.
Fun fact is that this movie is a loose adaptation of (among other things) an Ancient Greek historical event where 10,000 Greeks are hired as mercenaries by the brother of the Persian king to help him usurp the throne. They march all the way from Greece to the middle of the Persian Empire to fight a battle, but during it the brother dies and the 10,000 Greeks pretty much have to fight there way back to Greece through 1,000s of miles of hostile territory. Similar premise and some of the characters are the same. Plus the brother's name is also Cyrus
I love seeing a happy, healthy Mac. Good for him 👍
They need to do a whole episode on Streets of Fire. It's absolutely wild.
With Mac after he's done watching it of course
Definitely sucks that in the age of formulaic big budget movies no one makes weird, off the wall shit for wide release anymore
A theatre near where I live has a cult movie night program and I got to see it last Friday. I loved it!
@@joesomenumbers It's a golden age for television.
@@joesomenumbers Mandy and Sorry to Bother You.
A reference to the video game Ripper?
How deep will my love go for RLM?
Ripper was probably the last thing I'd expect Mack to reference. This guy is un-fucking-believable!
@@peterbeck88 That stunned the hell out of me too. Damn shame Spoony went batshit, I'm sure he'd have loved hearing that.
He's a great addition to the team. I was sceptical, but his passion, warmth and knowledge won me over!
The game is easily the best movie game ever made and I love how they added a bunch of back stories you could choose to explore
How do we end this episode? Freeze frame??? Perfect.
WE LOVE MAC!!! Keep inviting him, you guys! He's awesome
Mac's understanding of cinema and movie culture is pretty deep. I could hang out with this guy. Not because he's famous but because we could talk for days.
I'm glad he's turned his life around. He's everywhere now. Kudos to him.
It took me for it to click that this was Culkin, he's just so chill and happy that he get's to talk about movies. You sometimes forget actors are real people to.
My dad always has had the biggest hard on for this film as far back as I remember. He saw it in theaters when it first came out. And honestly, I've always respected him for that. This movie is fucking great.
Jay AGAIN teasing Twin Peaks, give us a re:View episode god damn it!
They did one for Fire Walk With Me where they basically talk about the whole show
Colin Lamppost I think they mean season 3. The re:View episode was before it was released.
Yes!!! We need a re:View for The Return!! I do wonder if Jay is avoiding it because he isn’t quite sure what to make of season 3. You could probably spend 4 hours just talking about theories for it
Somehow I completely forgot about season 3 lol
its sort of amazing how well mccauley slots into red letter media. it just feels right
"Yeah!? Who do you think I'm am, an a$$hole?" Gets me every time!
I think The Warriors was the best/most unnecessary video game based on a movie
maybe. But i love that game.
I played that game into the ground . I would love a remastering with online co op
At first i didnt like the game, but when you discover that the movie is the Climatic finale of the game, it rocks.
Beat it all in one Blockbuster weekend rental
Oh look, another far right trumptard with nothing else better to do with his life. Go f yourself troll
Played that game so much with my brothers many years ago.
Such a fun game.
20:05 "Warrior's come out to play" was actually something that actor's neighbor used to do in his old apartment building back in those days. He said as much in an interview.
This movie is based off the Anabasis (March to the Sea) by Xenophon, not the Odyssey. Cyrus is a reference to Cyrus the younger, a usurper prince who United the western satrapies against his older brother Artaxerxes. Cleon is Clearchus, the Spartan mercenary who’d assumed command of the Greek mercenary band known as the 10,000, only to be assassinated when negotiating his surrender after Cyrus the Younger’s death. Just as the Anabasis ends with the 10,000 arriving at the Greek ruled shores of Trebizond, the warriors ends with them reaching the coast at Coney Island.
It might be structurally based on the Anabasis but it draws at least a tad from the Odyssey/Iliad
There's literally a guy named Ajax
Mac also has a good point about the Sirens
@@kakroom3407 there’s references to the Iliad/odyssey, but the baseline of the story and setting is clearly based on the Anabasis. All the gangs just represent the various mountain tribes and local armies the 10,000 had to fight their way through to reach the sea.
this is a great episode of re:View. Loved going down memory lane with this film and Macaulay out trivia nerded Jay! Love it!
Started playing with bottles on the mean streets of Coney Island, had a couple of brief conversations with Schwarzenegger, helped run a brothel in the Pacific Northwest... now he's a cleaner for John Wick. I'd say that was a pretty full life, and a damn fine cup of coffee.
the last time i saw mcaulay culkin was back in the 90s, then saw a few pictures of him and thought we lost him, but hell, he's cooler than ever. great chemistry guys, hey Mac! Nice to see you so chill and happy! Big hugs man!
Mac seems like a dude who is both smart and chill at the same time. If I ever run into him when he’s out somewhere, I hope he’d let me buy him a beer and chat for 10 mins.
Point of clarification: it’s not the Odyssey, it’s an explicit adaptation of Xenophon’s Anabasis.
Ok Boomer
Calamari Union By Aki Kaurismäki is anothet adaptation of Anabasis, it's 80s movie made in Finland.
How is it not The Odysee??
@@wizzlewazzle9202 Anabasis is about a group of warriors that follow a man called Cyrus deep into enemy territory, where Cyrus is killed. The warriors then have to make their way home through hostile lands, until they reach the shores of the black sea (and the safety of the Greek cities). Ringing any bells?
Although the film does also use elements from the Oddysey too.
@Oh Kinawa I have been enlightened
I'm impressed by Mac's knowledge of late 90s FMV games
Jay once said he learned some of the basics of editing from watching Home Alone. Now he is in a video(which he probably edited) reviewing a movie with the guy who starred in Home Alone. he has come full circle.
More fulfilling character arc than Jamie Lannister.
Warriors was fun, but I was thrilled to see 'STREETS OF FIRE' get mentioned. Definitely in my top ten movies.
Mac is one of the only child actors I still LOVE to see! He is very self aware, very funny man!!!
> It's the Odyssey
It's Xenophon's March of the 10,000
Yep, both the film and the book are based on Anabasis. I've used this film to trick students into trying Greek history and mythology.
Cyrus the Younger hired the 10,000 Greek mercenaries to join his homegrown Persian troops in an attempt to take the throne from his brother Artaxerxes. They actually won the battle of Cunaxa, but Cyrus was killed in the process making the whole war irrelevant. The Greek generals went to the Persians to negotiate their safe return to Greece but the Persians murdered them during the negotiations. Being democrats, the Greeks elected Xenophon (and a few others, but they didn't write a book so I don't know who they were) to lead them, and they fought their way out of the middle of the Persian empire, back to the Greek colonies along the Black Sea.
Because of this review I have now read all of the Anabasis. Still haven't seen The Warriors though.
My dad gave me three VHS tapes when I was around 8. The Warriors, Starship Troopers, and Heavy Metal. Fun times!
Your father was either a horrible man, or was raising an inspired artist
I think the music enhance the film 1000 times more, without it ...it wouldn’t be the same
Damn, i'm thoroughly impressed at Culkin's knowledge about this movie
