GONZO YOU ARE THE MAN,
and I'll tell you why??
The interview in this article is the same commentary
as the interview on the Special Edition DVD!!!
You can't fool this fan,the many times I've seen it

Check this out: and compare it word for word man..

Beck: I did an independent film that was shot in Israel called Madman which I was cast in the lead for. Walter Hill was a producer for Alien and Sigourney Weaver was also in Madman. He screened that movie to look at Sigourney for the lead in Alien and was impressed enough with my performance to see me for The Warriors.

Remar: I hung out at Coney Island and tried to learn something about gang life down there and find a model for my character. There was a guy who was working at one of the games at Coney Island and I asked him, “So what kind of people hang around down here?” He just smiled and spread his arms and said, “The worst kind.”

Beck: The character of Fox played by Tommy Waites, he was supposed to end up with Mercy. My character was supposed to be captured by a rival gang of which I later escape and then I join up with the guys for the final battle.

BUT CHECK THIS OUT,THEY HAVE INTERVIEWS HERE WITH
Terrence Michos, played Vermin
Thomas G. Waites, played Fox
Joel Weiss, played Cropsy

READ WHAT TERRENCE HAD TO SAY "SMALL PORTION"
Michos: They didn’t want me at first. I think Tony Danza was the guy they were looking for, but he got Taxi. That’s when I got the role.

THIS STORY WAS GREAT BY JOEL
Weiss: When we had the group reading everybody had their own persona, but a lot of us were not signed yet. James Remar came in, he banged his chair down. He was in character. He was Ajax. I looked at Marcelino [Sanchez] and I said, “He must be signed.” Thomas Waites he was the second guy that was kind of outrageous. We’re in the middle of the reading. The flow was going. Then all of a sudden, out of the blue, Thomas Waites breaks character and he says, “Is there going to be room for improvisation?” And everybody is silent. I turned to Marcelino and I say, “He’s gotta be signed.” Let me tell you something, I’m not going to say a word. It’s my first movie.

MY POINT IS ,"IF" THESE INTERVIEWS WERE TAKEN FROM THE DVD,WHO KNOW HOW MUCH WAS LEFT OVER THAT THEY THOUGHT WOULD BE NOT INTRESTING?? HOW DO YOU KNOW IF PARAMOUNT JUST LEFT THEM ON THE CUTTING ROOM FLOOR,HUH ?? I'M TELLING YOU,THERE WERE MORE INTERVIEWS THAT THEY DID NOT PUT ON IN HERE?? COME ON,LOOK AT THIS..AND HERE IS PARAMOUNT COMPLAINING ABOUT REPLICS VEST,
HOLLA BACK AT ME!!!!

That is upsetting to think that there could have been so much left out -- including the total exclusion of some of the actors. I'm regretting my purchase more and more each day.

good article thanks Gonzo. This quote made my jaw drop...

Yurick: I thought the speed to which he got to the meeting was terrific, but once he had [Cyrus] making his speech, it all fell apart, because the guy was terrible. For me the best moment of the movie was my name flashing up and covering the whole screen.

Cyrus terrible? What in the world? Roger Hill was fantastic!

^^ Yeah agree, whats he talking about, I couldnt imagine anyone else playing Cyrus, I think thats one of the highlights of the film, its a great performance.

Great article, interesting that Beck mentions that loads of stuff never made the film.

That first picture of The Warriors around the old women on the subway train is a great shot, never seen that before.

Yeah ohs and Riff, if you read the intro to the book, you kinda get the impression that Sol Yurick is a jerk. I'm a smart guy, but he's the pretentious type.

One funny thing, is that in Walter Hill's last comment he says something about how the theatrical version is the only and best version of the movie....funny that the artcile was done in commemoration of the Director's Cut dvd.
