who is luther talking to?

[popsicle_fury]

Well, might as well give my two cents.

If we can use the game as insight to the movie, I don't think he was talking to a cop. During the game (the level Boys in Blue I think), it's revealed that the Rogues killed a cop, and I think during an in-game cutscene it explains that's where Luther got the gun and badge. That soon after one of their own is killed, I don't think the cops would be likely to trust a Rogue.

With the calm, respectful, polite-ish way he was speaking, it might not have been a Lizzie. With the way we see him yelling and belittling his own Rogues and the Candy Store Girl, he probably wouldn't have been so respectful. I think the Lizzies heard about the shooting on the radio and took advantage of running into The Warriors. Alternatively, it is still possible it was a Lizzie- with the way he was speaking he might have been looking for attention and/or trying to impress her while not taking into consideration what 'Lizzie' is slang for. I wouldn't omit him talking to one of the Lizzies, but I also think the girls knew what was going on before Luther phoned since he was being kinda vague.


Based on the "I dunno, I just like doing stuff like that" line, my guess would be that he has a mental illness that gives him a joy out of chaos, disorder and the pain and suffering of others. If Cyrus unites everyone, there's a big peace, which means less chaos and fighting going around. My guess would be that he's mostly likely talking to his girlfriend, his caseworker, or a Rogue higher-up. In all three cases he'd want to "check in" with the people and tell them what happened, however he was being vague in the conversation, meaning he might have been playing dumb/innocent to avoid telling them too much and getting in trouble. It's kinda hard to tell though if he was flirting (which would indicate a girlfriend) or if he was sucking up (indicating either of the other two).

When I first saw it I was thinking the Riffs, but than I had more common sense than that lol.  Later I was thinking of a youth worker, but this person seemed to have a huge essence of power.  So I simply chose "The Man".  "The Man" can be anybody, always trying to bring society down, and "the man" will always be forever, coming in all forms.  Its like the devil.  We can always triumph over it, buts its a form of evil, that is always there, and there is always the warriors who represent the good, that balance the universe out.  So, like I said, I think its the "the Man" putting people down vs. the warriors who with not stand for this. In every generation, we will always have some form of "The Man vs. The Warriors".

i think hes talking to the leader of the rogues or who ever hired him to kill sirus

It's my 1st post in this topic so I suppose someone already wrote what I'm, but believe me they're my real thinks about that!!!
4 me behind luther there's organized criminality, and the man on the phone(I use to call him Jericho) is the arm of organization. He wants reports(the calls), he has infiltrated some Riffs, he called the police conclave night, he gave luther "shooting" idea 4 killing Cyrus.
Why all this? Cause thanks infiltrated they knew about Cyrus plans, and in a 1979 New York power war, with a BIG GANG ready to fight 4 money, turfs and power, Cyrus became the new enemy. I mean police and other crim org leaders were already enough. If you think Jericho took all his chooses in a full criminal style! Infiltrated, police calling 4 the meeting, way to kill Cyrus...and the man he's choosen...the only one  so sure to obtain something back, but so stupid to shot among about 1000 soldiers.
Anyway I also think this would be a good starting point 4 the sequel. Do you imagine what a fight between gangs and hitmen...in Cyrus memoriam!!! 8)
