Now is there any similarity with the Golden Fleece in the movie Warriors ?

yes.

The Warriors wreck a small time outfit called the Orphans and steal the girl, Mercy.

Like the Golden Fleece? Well, incur the wrath of Apollo (the Orphans) Golden Fleece stolen, the girl.

The sirens? Three of the Warriors, Rembrandt, Cochise, Vermin are lead astray by a girl gabg, The Lizzies, who try and kill them after they educe our hapless heros.

There is a gang called "Furies" (well, Baseball furies to give them their full moniker),eprtaining to the divine Furies of the Gods.

Looks like a kewl movie :-)
Now, for the dabate, i must see the movie first, or can i watch another movie first, something like a surrogate of "Warriors" so i can follow the arguments used in this debate ?

O well, i'll stick to Monty Pythons' Holy Graal" and hope i can cope with the intellectual thrill driven in these posts.
