What's impressive is that the Cyrus actor was a last minute replacement and created this performance with virtually no rehearsal. He was a classically trained actor.
alexgataric played brilliantly by the late Roger Hill(Cyrus). Sadly he passed away 2/20/2014 at age 65 from a heart attack. So sad and so young. He probably still could’ve had a career.
The Death Wobble Channel Yeah, he's the only one with exaggerated delivery that doesn't come across as silly or corny. Point in case: the second in command of the Riffs, who's performance is almost laughably ridiculous.
I did this scene for a monologue in drama class, got the rest of the students to be the crowd and cheer when I raised my hands and quit when I lowered my hands; got an A+ for my final.

"Forty thousand counting affiliates, and twenty thousand more not organized but ready to fight." Cyrus would have had a promising career in Human Resources had he not been felled by an assassin.
Watching an interview with James Remar ( Ajax) and he stares that Hill"s speech was so powerful, so genuine that even though they all knew it was only a movie, there was a few seconds where you could almost believe what he was saying. Incredible.
It is such an impressive bit of writing so much power in the words that comes out of Cyrus mouth. I only have one question for you....... CAN YOU DIG IT ?
and it is very fitting for what is happening in 2021, with how they establishment is dividing us to hate each other, while they sit back in the shadows and enrich themselves.
Not really. Speech come super late I mean if you think about civilization as a whole the city these retards are in is only there because of people way back in history forming a military through alliances tribal alliances so all these unified gang crap speeches it's all been done before but these gangs are very ignorant of History obviously
"We have been fighting for 10 square feet of ground. Our turf....our little piece of turf." The way he uses his facial expressions and gestures to show how disgusted he is with the waste of energy over nothing big is magic. Bravo.
Yah people think cyrus's speech is amazing but he can just do what every other tyrannical person does after getting a group of people behind him..they think theyre oppressed by cops..well stop fucking around on them streets
@@sgt1terrence Sadly this isn't China. Here in the West our rulers care only about one thing.... Profit. The British did this for hundreds of years, starved people through man made famines, deprived the lower class of any substance in their lives and then once they steal to survive, or do something wrong their rulers would have an excuse to ship them off to an island. In the U.S it's the same thing, especially with African Americans. Rulers intricately engineer certain cultures through welfare, music, drugs and the education system brainwashing and training them to be criminals so they can have an excuse to incarcerate them and utilise them for penal labour and profit. The 13th amendment states clear as day that people who commit crime are allowed to be enslaved, it literally says it clear as day. Sadly we don't live in a utopia where everything is perfect, our rulers despise us and see us as nothing more than human checks they will exploit any way possible to profit from.

Thokozile Xaba He did a great job in this small role. Although he wasn't originally cast. A real NYC gang leader was cast (don't ask me how I just know he was) but he never showed up for the shoot and was never heard from again. Roger was then given the part on the fly. Walter Hill loved his performance.
The other day a guy at my work (who is probably seven or eight years younger than me) used the “CAAAANNN YOUUUUU DIG IIITTTT?!!!” line, and I thought I was going to do a happy dance 😄

Hey Boppers, My name is Moïse Morancy. I’m the writer, director and producer of "The Warriors" 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! 🙏🏿
The story was based on the Greek army that fled to the sea for safety, I think that gave it the added value and the special myth, it was brilliant, with out it would the story isn’t as exciting and the actors today are not as good as they used too, look at Cyrus for example, the actor played a minor short role but ihe did it in such a powerful manner that even the best actor today couldn’t achieve his level of acting so no, just like pulp fiction I think that the warriors should not have a sequel, you don’t make the Mona Lisa twice
Cyrus for president! I can see him giving his inaugural speech in front of the US Capitol building. "Can you count suckas?! Now look what we have here. We've got the North Koreans here on US soil standing next to the Iranians and the Russians. Nobody is nuking nobody. Now THAT is a miracle!"

What puzzles me, is here, Luther was able to get a kill shot with a .38 at that distance, but later on, he misses Swan at point-blank range with the same gun!
But honestly, maybe Cyrus getting shot was a good thing. It looked like he was gonna unite all the gangs to take over all of the New York borough's. What was going to happen then, was NYC going to get run to hell? With the cops breaking up this park meeting, at least that goal wasn't realized.
This is nothing more than a pro-One World Government speech. If you have the brains you'll know what I'm talking about. Our beautiful piece of turf is a nation's sovereignty. The coming together of gangs that ought to be killing themselves is the 'miracle', a metaphor for who the left sees our differences as the cause of all of the world's problems and that miracle is the religious language used to brainwash the masses into giving up God and replacing him with, in this case, power, state-power in the hands of the criminals. In other words, if we keep the general truce or unite under one gang, the one world government socialists, communists and liberals have been pushing for over 100 years, we could run the streets, the world, one borough at a time, one nation at a time. What Cyrus leaves out and what liberals always leave out is the fact that the government works in unison with the gangs to control the flow of drugs into the community and that the gangs work in unison with the police to control the levels of crime just like Wall street bankers and the military industrial complex funded and ran all of our wars. They will never admit to you that our elite funded the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, the Communist Revolution in China, the Socialist Revolution in Germany, the Communist Revolution in Cuba. They will never admit to you that those same people and organizations funded the Feminist Revolution and the Homosexual movement that ruined the American family. They will never admit that they are funded by the same people pushing for Pedophilia Normalization or that they were responsible for the destruction of American schools. It's called the Hegelian Dialectic or Problem, reaction, solution. This is how the government controlled by liberals operates. The same liberals who tell you we ought to come together and form a world government because our national identities and sovereignty are what's causing the disorder and mayhem are the same people who are causing that very chaos in the first place. Cyrus' murder is the false flag, the self-inflicted wound that keeps the narrative going that cops ARE the enemy when in fact they are partners. The fact that most of the gangs are multicultural and that the one all-white gang takes out the black gang leader that called for unification is exactly what the Left does when it needs to perpetuate the false accusations of racism and fascism. But they also funded Hitler. Luther is the self-hating white gunman hired to keep you hating white people. The city gangs think The Warriors shot Cyrus but we know better don't we? We know it was the EVIL whites that just love to spoil a good thing for those colored folks huh? This is nothing but liberal pro-multicultural propaganda. A call to unite under one banner against whitey.
Shona Williamson look up the story of Xenophon’s Anabasis, which happened around 2500 years ago and was the main influence of this story. In short, a group of 10,000 Mercenary Greeks (lead by Xenophon) were employed by the brother (called Cyrus) of the Persian King of Kings in an attempt to usurp him. The Greeks fought well, but Cyrus died during a battle, leaving the Greeks stranded in the middle of the Persian Empire, which consisted of numerous different factions who fought under the influence of the Persians. The story was of their fight against all the Persian controlled factions so they could return home to Greece.
Seeing this particular scene ..in the movie theatre in Ft worth TX..loud speakers and screen...then , suddenly , Cyrus is shot!!!! That shocked me pretty bad ! I freaked ! From there on .mayhem and survival ! I think I checked on my popcorn because of the drama! When I left , I at least felt better because the " warriors made it home ...quite a shocking movie! The soundtrack was amazing and crisp and Mr Joe Walsh playing the riffs !
OMG!! This guy should have won an Oscar & had a coveted acting career!! Continue to RIHP Acting Emperor Roger Hill! Unforgettable performance & movie!! 💘 🎥 😍 ✌
hippies were long gone by the late 70's. One can say they pretty much disappeared with the onset of the 70's. Punks had appeared and while hippies talked about peace and love punks talked about revolt and anarchy against the ruling classes and the government and hate as a tool for their goals.
Can you dig it ? Yes I can !! Cyrus' speech was really inspiring, especially for gang members. It's a great opening, and so sad that the guy (from 48 Hours) had to shoot him. And blame The Warriors !!
love the movie, one of my favorite part of the movie. It states a reality from back then and now. "The man" keeps us split up into groups fighting amongst ourselves while they keep the pot stirred up and doing what they do.
I watched The Warriors for the first time on REde Globo, Sunday .... 23:30 + - knowing that the next day I would wake up at 6 am to go to school. I had to do a great maneuver to watch it because the TV light would meet the central corridor of my parents' house as well as the noise and consequently wake them up. I got a lot of scoldings, but I managed. Sensational and unforgettable. Brazil Fan
You see kids, in the 80's gang culture was a lot different. Back then gangs CARED about racial diversity. To show you're colors you HAD to wear leather, chains, and spikes. And guns were considered to be for sissies-REAL men carried switch knives!

I'm from England, great to see a gang member with a Union Jack vest on! I came out of the cinema so wanting to be Swan, I even tried to walk like him!!
I was at a business leadership seminar and they were showing all the great motivational speeches in history. The Gettysburg Address, Churchill’s Battle of Britain, Ghandi, MLK...and then this came on. A bunch of dudes in business suits listening to Cyrus..
I wasn't born when this came out, but I love this movie. It shows the power of sticking together, and how gangs weren't always negative. I'm mad they shot Cyrus though; there is always somebody that has to ruin a good thing.
How is he a dumbass? The biggest gang in America is the government. CIA, FBI, Police, etc have been flooding drugs in the community, killing unarmed citizens, & bending the law for decades. He’s right. This was a good thing. A good thing because gangs were united & not killing one another & working together for a purpose. You white people can’t stand that.
Blkbornseed your comment was all good till you put the blame on white people. This is not a race thing, every race was displayed in that scene, and there wasn't only "blacks or white" gangs, there were mixed ones too.

But honestly, maybe Cyrus getting shot was a good thing. It looked like he was gonna unite all the gangs to take over all of the New York borough's. What was going to happen then, was NYC going to get run to hell? With the cops breaking up this park meeting, at least that goal wasn't realized.
"cccaaannn yyyooouuu dddiiiggg iiittt!!"
"Go ahead Cyrus; we're with you!"
This wasn’t a speech for a movie, it was a speech for all of us struggling in the streets
That is the Badest "Can You Dig it" ever.
Booker T: Hold my beer, suckas!!
@@99mrpogi we're coming for you nigaah!
Greatest scene ever from the greatest movie ever
If not its DAMN close.
This is poetry. This movie handles classic greek mythos with great execution.
This is nothing more than a pro-One World Government speech. If you have the brains you'll know what I'm talking about. Our beautiful piece of turf is a nation's sovereignty. The coming together of gangs that ought to be killing themselves is the 'miracle', a metaphor for who the left sees our differences as the cause of all of the world's problems and that miracle is the religious language used to brainwash the masses into giving up God and replacing him with, in this case, power, state-power in the hands of the criminals. In other words, if we keep the general truce or unite under one gang, the one world government socialists, communists and liberals have been pushing for over 100 years, we could run the streets, the world, one borough at a time, one nation at a time. What Cyrus leaves out and what liberals always leave out is the fact that the government works in unison with the gangs to control the flow of drugs into the community and that the gangs work in unison with the police to control the levels of crime just like Wall street bankers and the military industrial complex funded and ran all of our wars. They will never admit to you that our elite funded the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, the Communist Revolution in China, the Socialist Revolution in Germany, the Communist Revolution in Cuba. They will never admit to you that those same people and organizations funded the Feminist Revolution and the Homosexual movement that ruined the American family. They will never admit that they are funded by the same people pushing for Pedophilia Normalization or that they were responsible for the destruction of American schools. It's called the Hegelian Dialectic or Problem, reaction, solution. This is how the government controlled by liberals operates. The same liberals who tell you we ought to come together and form a world government because our national identities and sovereignty are what's causing the disorder and mayhem are the same people who are causing that very chaos in the first place. Cyrus' murder is the false flag, the self-inflicted wound that keeps the narrative going that cops ARE the enemy when in fact they are partners. The fact that most of the gangs are multicultural and that the one all-white gang takes out the black gang leader that called for unification is exactly what the Left does when it needs to perpetuate the false accusations of racism and fascism. But they also funded Hitler. Luther is the self-hating white gunman hired to keep you hating white people. The city gangs think The Warriors shot Cyrus but we know better don't we? We know it was the EVIL whites that just love to spoil a good thing for those colored folks huh? This is nothing but liberal pro-multicultural propaganda. A call to unite under one banner against whitey.
This actor did such fantastic job, he’s hardly in the movie but probably the most memorable part. Shame he didn’t do much more.

A savagely strong story. A breath taking movie. Love this upload. Best wishes.
Shona Williamson look up the story of Xenophon’s Anabasis, which happened around 2500 years ago and was the main influence of this story.
In short, a group of 10,000 Mercenary Greeks (lead by Xenophon) were employed by the brother (called Cyrus) of the Persian King of Kings in an attempt to usurp him. The Greeks fought well, but Cyrus died during a battle, leaving the Greeks stranded in the middle of the Persian Empire, which consisted of numerous different factions who fought under the influence of the Persians.
The story was of their fight against all the Persian controlled factions so they could return home to Greece.
This movie is so iconic and needs more notoriety
Watched 100s of times still brilliant...this speech is brilliant and built up with the gangs travelling for the meet in the intro
classic. cyrus so genuine, charismatic, what speech, what a cult classic role he played.
What a great scene in cinematic history. "Nobody is wasting nobody. THAT is a miracle."
That is a great scene and good acting IMHO.
Seeing this particular scene ..in the movie theatre in Ft worth TX..loud speakers and screen...then , suddenly , Cyrus is shot!!!! That shocked me pretty bad ! I freaked ! From there on .mayhem and survival ! I think I checked on my popcorn because of the drama! When I left , I at least felt better because the " warriors made it home ...quite a shocking movie! The soundtrack was amazing and crisp and Mr Joe Walsh playing the riffs !
We was probably in the same audience 😅
we're getting there
Cyrus was a visionary beyond his time...
CAN. YOU. DIG IT?
Ayy Lmao
Thanks for this ..a remarkable speech delivered by an ace actor .
The extras went harder in this movie than I have ever seen them go in any movie.
This scene is literally iconic. Where it all began………….
Cyrus for Prez!
Well,he would be more likable and charismatic than Trump or Clinton.
OMG!! This guy should have won an Oscar & had a coveted acting career!! Continue to RIHP Acting Emperor Roger Hill! Unforgettable performance & movie!! 💘 🎥 😍 ✌
This is when movies were still magical 👊🏻⚔️🔥
I can’t believe this guy didn’t do more movies after this!!!
Thank you for having the whole speech! Again, one of my 3 favorite scenes. Not when Cyrus gets shot, but the hippie lingo, I dig it
hippies were long gone by the late 70's. One can say they pretty much disappeared with the onset of the 70's. Punks had appeared and while hippies talked about peace and love punks talked about revolt and anarchy against the ruling classes and the government and hate as a tool for their goals.
Best motivational I've never heard in my entire life hands down...can you dig it suckas!
I genuinely don't think this film could be remade! Thankfully.....
CAN UU DIGGG IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOOOOOL
Picture trump saying this at his speech
Can you dig it ? Yes I can !! Cyrus' speech was really inspiring, especially for gang members. It's a great opening, and so sad that the guy (from 48 Hours) had to shoot him. And blame The Warriors !!
love the movie, one of my favorite part of the movie. It states a reality from back then and now. "The man" keeps us split up into groups fighting amongst ourselves while they keep the pot stirred up and doing what they do.
I watched The Warriors for the first time on REde Globo, Sunday .... 23:30 + - knowing that the next day I would wake up at 6 am to go to school. I had to do a great maneuver to watch it because the TV light would meet the central corridor of my parents' house as well as the noise and consequently wake them up. I got a lot of scoldings, but I managed. Sensational and unforgettable. Brazil Fan
2019 and I still feel this speech to the core!!!! 😤
You see kids, in the 80's gang culture was a lot different. Back then gangs CARED about racial diversity. To show you're colors you HAD to wear leather, chains, and spikes. And guns were considered to be for sissies-REAL men carried switch knives!
+Daniel Ryan
then gentrification drove everything underground...
fuck the 1%
+Daniel Ryan In the 1980s, guns were considered to be for sissies?
None of your comment is even remotely true.
+Maddolis Its called humor
Daniel Ryan Ugh I just reread your comment and yeah, it seems pretty obvious you were making a joke. Guess I wasn't thinking straight after a big night! My apologies.
+Maddolis eh, no biggie
We need someone to deliver a speech like this in Baltimore right now
The Real
In Baltimore, new york. Hell, the whole country needs it. the also need to watch "rich man's trick" to eliminate any doubters.

And Again After The Riots
I'm from England, great to see a gang member with a Union Jack vest on! I came out of the cinema so wanting to be Swan, I even tried to walk like him!!
I have watched this movie numerous times and today was the first time I noticed that guy...what gang was he with Arsenal or Chelsea?
still the best movie ever created till this day
This guy for President
My favourite movie
Such a magnificent speech. I love it.
Classic!!!! They don't make classics like this anymore.
As a math teacher I like to start my classes the same way.
i can dig it
Where's your shovel?
His Speech is TRUE just the movie but TRUE. Real Life Goat
I was at a business leadership seminar and they were showing all the great motivational speeches in history. The Gettysburg Address, Churchill’s Battle of Britain, Ghandi, MLK...and then this came on. A bunch of dudes in business suits listening to Cyrus..
Never gets old
I wasn't born when this came out, but I love this movie. It shows the power of sticking together, and how gangs weren't always negative. I'm mad they shot Cyrus though; there is always somebody that has to ruin a good thing.
what are you talking about dude?
How the hell is it a good thing that gangs would dominate a city?? You're a weirdo
How is he a dumbass? The biggest gang in America is the government. CIA, FBI, Police, etc have been flooding drugs in the community, killing unarmed citizens, & bending the law for decades. He’s right. This was a good thing. A good thing because gangs were united & not killing one another & working together for a purpose. You white people can’t stand that.
I was with you until you mentioned white people
Blkbornseed your comment was all good till you put the blame on white people. This is not a race thing, every race was displayed in that scene, and there wasn't only "blacks or white" gangs, there were mixed ones too.
This actor deserve an Emmy or Oscar award for this performance
We need a cyrus right now.
Nostalgia pura! Conheci The Warriors no jogo de ps2
Feelin it now
why this movie hasnt been recreated is beyond me
classic scene thanks for posting great movie.
Always cracked me up how he says "delegates" and "affiliates". And of course love how he says "Can you dig ittttttttttt?"
