Listener's Choice Volume 003 // The Warriors

Published: Sept. 7, 2022, 4:45 p.m.

We're back with our third Listener's Choice episode of the podcast. After randomizing our many submissions (too many, if you ask Sage) the winner was The Warriors from 1979. Right off the bat, the boys were split on this one. One hated it, one loved it and the other was right in between theM. The boys bring up the cringy bottle scene, the romance, the gangs, the event that gets the warriors in trouble and the overall resolution in the movie, and debate what was done well and what was done poorly. The one thing we all agree on though is that this movie needs a 2020's facelift with more of a horror/thriller direction.

This movie was directed by Walter Hill.
