Latino Review had gotten a script draft of THE WARRIORS remake that Tony Scott is supposed to helm...
...and I tell ya, it sounds fucking retarded.
Certainly there are some silly things in the original THE WARRIORS. Multi-ethnic gangs with comic bookish banners and gimmicks. But you know what? Within Walter Hill's serious macho-street western, it makes sense. You accept the idea of flashy gang apparel.
But the remake....oh God, let me recount the retarded ideas that the remake wants to do:
*The Rogues? Well guess what? They're the Rogues because they are "rogue" LA policemen. Yikes.
*The Furies are now a Mexican gang that carries baseball bats, called "El Furies".
Maybe its just me, but I miss the crazy bastardized KISS/Yankees hybrid that was The Furies...
