* HoYay: A street gang with a ratio of nine physically fit men to one rather homely woman? Almost all of whom bare their chests? [[ManlyGay And insist on fighting hand-to-hand]]? And are BashBrothers? And the movie's loosely based on an ancient Greek legend? It's almost inevitable - and, in particular, hard to resist the temptation to "slash" Ajax and Cowboy.

removing trope since a remake hasn\'t happened yet
Changed line(s) 17,18 (click to see context) from:
* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: A remake was in the works, but is now stuck in DevelopmentHell. The remake would have changed the location to Los Angeles, changed the setting to modern times, and played everything dead serious, without any of the campiness that made the original so entertaining. Fans were up in arms for a while.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome: "Last Of An Ancient Breed" by Desmond Child is a powerful song complete with an appropriate TitleDrop.
** "In The City" by Joe Walsh, while it sounds relaxing, sums up Swan's attitude at the end of the movie perfectly.
** Arnold [=McCuller=]'s version of "Nowhere To Run" is timed nicely as a threat to the Warriors.

* [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments Crowning Moment Of Funny]]: On the special edition DVD's actor interviews, James Remar relates a story of how he went down to Coney to see what gang life was like down there and to find a model for his character Ajax. He goes to a carney working one of the booths and asks him "So what kind of people hang around down here?" The carney smiles, spreads his arms, and declares proudly, "The worst kind!"

* CriticalDissonance: When it came out, the movie was roasted by critics, who lambasted it as a mindless, plotless, absurdly unrealistic violent schlockfest. However, it attracted considerable popularity, largely for being [[SoBadItsGood a mindless, plotless, absurdly unrealistic violent shlockfest.]]
