Memorable scenes, great music, distinct characters, consistently humourous, it's a highly enjoyable and fun film.

We used to bunk off school to jump over a mates fence and watch a pirate VHS of Quadrophenia on his new Ferguson Videostar, I probably know the script from start to finish. I bought the Warriors on Blu-ray and they have done a great job on the picture. I hope they do the same to the Warriors, the soundtrack was great and the fight scene at the end was fantastic..........don't f%ck with the baldies.

Yeah, that line was in there too. They also said that the baldies were so insane that they shave their heads so that their hair doesn't get in their eyes when they fight.

I use that excuse as its sooo much better than saying I'm old and losing my hair and if I didn't shave it off I'd look like Bobby Charlton

The fact that the God awful a M***a M*a is on the list negates the whole thing, I'm afraid.
A lot of old women dancing around and singing badly is not a cult. It's a coven.

I'd love to know what total film define as a cult movie.
I can't see how Love Story, or Shawshank could be included here.
Can A film be a box office smash, and still be regarded as a cult movie?
I always thought, no. But perhaps I'm wrong.
Love Story was a box office smash. Wasn't it?
Anyway. I'm surprised Heathers isn't in there, and I would have liked Medium Cool to have been included.
