Things you misheard or misunderstood the first time you saw the movie?


What are some things you misheard or misunderstood the first time you saw "The Warriors"? I thought Vermin's name was Herman.

One thing I could never catch was when the Riffs are in the warehouse and the leader says "Riffs" it took me numerous viewing to catch they respond "YEAH RIGHT!"

At the start during the opening credits when The Warriors are talking to each other, one of them tells Rembrandt to stay close and he replies "Don't worry, I don't feel like getting wrecked.."

Well when I first saw this when I was about 13, I thought he said "Don't worry, I don't feel like being erect.." No idea where I got that from, ha ha!

Used to think the leader of the Riffs was saying "I want them alive if possible. If not, then WAIT!"
Turns out he was saying "then WASTED."

So did I, and wondered at the time "Why would Cyrus want them to wait? Wait on him to get there?"
