Hey Hollywood, leave my childhood alone!

"The Warriors"

The classic: After a midnight gang summit in the Bronx, and the murder of a big boss, a Coney Island gang called the Warriors take the rap, and must fight cops and rival gangs on their long journey across New York City. Also inspired a fairly badass videogame.

The update: Director Tony Scott ("True Romance," but also "Domino") plans to bring the Warriors to LA where he says the battle will become an all out war, with epic action sequences, slow motion gun shots, and probably someone mourning over a fallen homie while rain pours down.
