I quite liked the 'new' director's cut or whatever with the added comic strip style bits too. It's a bit dated but still worth a watch I reckon. Sweet, thats Saturday nights viewing. I once read a book years ago which The Warriors was based on, or visa versa. Really annoyingly I cant remember what the book was called or who wrote it! But that was a good read!

David Kelly 1260 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Warriors is a massive favourite of mine but I'm not sure if you watched it for a first time now it would stand up so well. A bit like The Breakfast Club and Ferris Beuller. I watched Colossal before I went on holiday. The trailer made it look like a straight up comedy which, while there was certainly comedy in it, it certainly wasn't. It ends up a strange mix of drama, comedy and action never seeming to know what tone it wants to set. I discovered later that it's written and directed by the same guy who did Time Crimes which comes as no surprise. Interesting but I'm not sure I'd recommend it.

Some films came out and hit a generation and zeitgeist and capture the hearts of people who seen it around that time. But if you see it after films like American Pie and Superbad or whatever it's hard to go back to that time and feel the same way about it (even if you were of an age to have seen it at the time but just missed it). I'm just relieved that I did see it when I was in my teens and still have the love for it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 20802 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Along them lines, Big with Tom Hanks I can still watch that now over and over again. When I was in NYC I looked for the places it was filmed and the Zoltar machine. When we go back in Sept I am going to goto the street where they lived too.

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Watched Reservoir Dogs last night , I'd recorded it unknowingly so stuck it on for old times sake. I forgot how many clues there were in the film about Mr Orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22185 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Train spotting 2. Decent, more than just the nostalgia trip I was anticipating. Diverted plot quite a bit from porno but enjoyable enough all the same. 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 22185 Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I watched it with quite low expectations so I guess I want disappointed, obvs not a patch on the original but you could say that about porno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
