    Next Gladiator/Sparticus/300 type film?

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    The tale inspired Walter Hill's 1979 film "The Warriors."

    So the Warriors was based on this other story first then? Then why say the movie is based on the Warriors. . when it's based on the story that the Warriors was based on?

    The Warriors film is loosely based on The Warriors novel which is loosely based on Anabasis.

    I just hope they don't do it all stylized like 300 or something.

    That would suck if they film this like 300.
