⇓

Continuity: At the subway when Mercy and Fox were running down the stairs from the cops, they showed a back shot of Mercy and it was clearly another woman. Her hair was about shoulder length and straight. Mercy's hair is longer, and curly.

⇓

Continuity: When Vermin says to the woman,"Looks like you're the winner." they both sit down and start to kiss, but in the next shot when Rembrandt and Cochese start talking, you can clearly see Vermin walking by talking to the woman.

⇓

Deliberate "mistake": In the scene where the Punks follow the Warriors into the bathroom, Rembrandt sprays the head punk with his red spray paint. However, the spray coming out of the can is clear, not red.

⇓

Revealing: When Fox is thrown onto the railroad tracks in the subway, if you look closely at his legs you can tell that he stops in midair, meaning he obviously landed on something much higher than the tracks (boxes maybe).

Factual error: In the scene where the Warriors are hiding from the Turnbull A.C.'s under the elevated subway they look up at the train that is approaching the station. The train is marked as a "J" train.  At that point they are still in the Bronx. The "J" train never runs in the Bronx.

Visible crew/equipment: When The Warriors are running down the centre of the street (heading to the train station) as they are chased by the Turnbull AC's in their bus, on the left of this shot you can briefly see two crew members wearing yellow jackets standing next to some lighting equipment for the scene.

Audio problem: In the famous "milk bottle" scene where the gang leader of the Rogues has four milk bottles on his fingers, if you listen very carefully you can hear the director shout "action" just before the actor starts to sing "warriors, come out to play."

Continuity: When Cyrus is giving his speech his shirt and robe are quite open (open enough to see a necklace), but when he's shot his clothes have buttoned themselves.

Continuity: In the graveyard scene, after the meeting, Rembrandt is shown at the top of this statue looking for the train station. In the next shot with Swan, in the background Rembrandt is seen still climbing up the statue.

Edit

⇓

Other: The gang gets separated after an intense cop chase through the subway station, and Conchise, Rembrandt, Vermin escape safely aboard, ending up in Union Square. The train stops, and the guys step out; noticing no one is around. Rembrandt then comments that nobody has shown up. From the cam angles they are obviously looking at the empty platform straight ahead (right) from how their bodies are positioned in the subway door. Suddenly Vermin says, 'something else just showed up!' and the cam flips left to reveal a gang of girls watching them from a stairwell - which is obviously straight across from the tracks. Except, the guys' focus never left the empty platform. They wouldn't have noticed the girls standing straight left of them unless they'd been looking around, which they were not. Just a simple editing error.

Continuity: When the Warriors are back home and they step off the train, the woman who is with Swan has a pink top on and it is really dirty on the front, but when they go and find some weapons in the abandoned warehouse she has only got a small mark on the front the size of a hand, as she did earlier on in the film.

Audio problem: When Ajax is at the park handcuffed to the bench, he calls the woman a stupid bitch, but his mouth never moves.

Edit

⇓

Continuity: In the Coney Island scene near the end of the movie, where the car that The Rogues are tailing The Warriors in stops, in the background shot you can see that the elevated boardwalk adjacent to the car is located about the same level as the roof of the car, and is ascending upwards towards the front of the car. In the next scene with a closeup of Luther clinking the bottles in his hand, the boardwalk is all of a sudden located much lower at the car seat level and is now descending downwards towards the front of the car.

Edit

⇓

Revealing: As the gang is being chased through the "96th Street Station", you can see the true station name "Hoyt" (as in Hoyt-Schermerhorn Sts. Station) on the outer station wall.

Edit Time

⇓

Continuity: After Ajax is arrested Swan goes to the station with "tough chick", the first time you see the train platform it's empty but a few seconds later a man has appeared from nowhere, then a policeman sees Swan and chases him and the man has once again vanished.

⇓

Continuity: In the subway station, when the Turnbull A.C.'s recognize the Warriors, they turn the bus around and begin a fierce chase. The distance shots of them chasing the Warriors do not match up. Several times the AC's appear to gain on the Warriors, and a few other times the Warriors are way ahead of the AC's just prior to escaping up the subway stairs.

Visible crew/equipment: Just after Luther accuses the Warriors of killing Cyrus and the black Warrior is killed, there is a panning shot of all the gangs escaping and at the very right edge of the screen you can see a Panavision camera and its operator filming.

Revealing: When Ajax is handcuffed to the park bench and a cop punches him in the stomach with his nightstick, look at the police car behind the cop as he straightens up. The writing on the side of the car is backwards, indicating that the film was flipped to reverse left and right.

Edit

⇓

Continuity: At the end of the movie when The Warriors are back home in Coney Island and ready to confront the gang that set them up, you can see the rides, boardwalk, surrounding apartments in the background. However when they take the gang down to the beach all of the background scenery that definitely would still be visible disappears. There is no way they are still on the beach in Coney Island.

Edit

⇓

Visible crew/equipment: When the leader of the Riffs' finds out it wasn't the Warriors who killed Cyrus there is a focused shot on his face and his sunglasses reflect a crewmember wearing a white T-shirt next to what looks like a camera. It has to be a crewmember as no-one in that scene is wearing a white T-shirt.
