Beat Street (1984) trailer

[metalorixos]

If a movie was about nowdays hiphop, it would be called Bitch Street.

[ayknunvrn]

Mükemmel .

[brela1012814]

uploader break dancing is a NY thing how could this be the east coast's answer to it? It started here!! Why do people post retarded shit?

[olhodeboi69]

sucsses in brazil very good 1984 !!!!!

skool remeber!!!!

[therealviscos]

Damn I saw Beat Street at the show when it first came out but I don't remember this trailer. It has a lot of scenes that weren't in the movie, thatz fresh.

[yatesyprenton74]

now this takes me back,,,,,havent seen this stuff since the time it woz out,,,,,wot a buzz,,,,

[krtsbrooklyn]

This must be an extended trailer...cause there are MAD scenes I've never seen in the movie. Does anyone know if there is an extended director's cut?

[cagool2fray]

trop fort !!! peace mon frere !

[Techspert]

Lots of missing footage in this trailer... I'd love to see uncut version!

[davidjroberts77]

BEST EVER FILM...!

[GirlsAloudGeek]

what was the name of the movie again?

[KairuHakubi]

God nothing has changed.. among the lower class audiences we keep seeing these movies that literally only exist to say "hey look, a subculture!" going back as far as Beach Blanket Bingo and extending all the way to YOU GOT SERVED and beyond..

[kennyfame]

@KairuHakubi what are you talking about? You must only want to rant. "Beach Blanket Bingo" was never made for a lower class audience it start american sweethearts Annette Funicello & Frankie Avalon so get your facts straight. And the only thing that these movies had in common was its exploration of a burgeoning underground scene. Beat Street was actually one of the best of its kind because it did include a plut. But unfortunately had weak performances

[er1c175]

@KairuHakubi lower class is something you think of people, and not what people think of themselves!

but of course you would think that everybody is supposed to dance to the same tune of the mainsteam media that did'nt allow any other demographic to exist! So we had to get our own!

and why you so upset for! the white man is the one reaping all of the benefits from hip-hop anyways!

[KairuHakubi]

@er1c175 You are also agreeing with me.

[adaluz23]

BBOY!!! NOT BREAK DANCING!!!!

[xsurnox]

goosebumps ...

[lolobreak40]

Hi, anyone knows the title of this song?

[Grizzly844]

[sheshaman]

0:50 Madafucker is there to clear stairs lobby!! No to makes more fuckin' mess around!!!

[PsyCoTeRaPeuTa]

old school real hip hop love

[africkinamerican]

@ILustForMystery Early '90s? There was lots of good hip hop in the early 90s, some would say that was the golden era even though by that time it was more commercialized. It was a different sound from the '80s. More layered with samples, more sophisticated rhyming style. Even the gangsta rap was better produced than nowadays.

[9577frasier]

the moves in the 80s are a little cleaner

[lilton25]

hip hop was so much differant back then very interesting

[jremsyo]

i haven't seen the scenes of breakdance in this trailer .... there are more scenes of battles and dance than in the movie

Where it come from please ?

[wishpackers]

Are there two versions of this film?? I don't recall a lot of these scenes!

[sevenodd]

Thats the mom from Above the Rim at :21.

[SR71BBFLYER]

@ILustForMystery HEY! A year of the Dragon child...like me...(64)...yeah those were great times...nothin like the corporate,manufactured,process­ed and packaged BS that passes for hip-hop today. You may not have been there in the Golden Era but you have the heart of someone that was. I miss those battles at the Roxy..the Latin Quarters..the Rooftop in the Bronx and the Funhouse...(now where'd I put that Time Machine...?)

[wishpackers]

I saw the movie when it originally came out and I don't remember the school scene.

[djsweetchuck]

Half of those scenes weren't even in the real movie! Anyone know where to see them at?????

[alsheikh871]

Ha ! Ha ! Beat Street came out before Break street, from my souvenirs

[swaggboss2009]

it took me years to find this movie, but thanks to Walmart I finally have this classic "Beat Street"

[ptua8]

Classic !

[hiphopyoudontstop34]

classic love this

[gangsta8k]

classic example of how hip hop was back in the days its purest form of talent and i i dont know what todays rap/hip hop is at all today

[oldschoolbx1970]

@gangsta8k I feel you on that one,my brothah.

[dynastywilliams]

I want to see the uncut version with the classroom scene!!! NOW!!! 25 years..

[oldschoolbx1970]

@dynastywilliams So do I,bro.

[conchetumareylawea]

cuando se estrena?????

[Carthsting]

it is not on soundtrack,along with intro theme.Damn

[lolobreak40]

Hi someone can tell me the title and singer of this item? Greetings

[ausseratem]

It pretty looks like authentic underground culture, but in my point of view it's in some form "culture creation from the top". "B-Boy" is occult lingo for bee-boy (the beehive in ancient egypt was the symbol for the ideal society, drones serving the elite/the queen). Is it possible that "they" (Tavistock Institute, London?) invented or pushed this stuff? What about masonic names like "Grand Master" Flash...?

[SR71BBFLYER]

@ausseratem

Wow, I would have never come up with that. The truth is a little more simplified.

B-boy simply stands for "beat-boy" In the late 70s' thru 80's guys who played records at parties learned to take two record players and spin certain sections of the records back 2 back. (mixing), usually at the most entertaining beat of the song. Dancers would catch this "beat" and perform their best moves to it.

[africkinamerican]

@ausseratem HUH?

[lyricaldemons]

this bring back the memories,clothes,language,ever­ything. I remember the way my big bro dressed in everything lol

[siggixxl]

yeah this are my best time 1983/84 i love to dance electric boogie!

great film brings my memories back snif!

[malfaz67]

"Breaking" was just a bunch of fags, Beat Street was the real deal.

[BlackPanther280]

hip hop!!!!!!

[coshstudio]

Beat street was released only a month later.A very quick answer if you ask me.I loved the breakdancing and hip hop culture in this movie. I was disappointed by the graffiti artwork. They could have use real artist like in wildstyle.

[clasiqsoul]

Man, I wanna live on beat street. :)

[blingblingeddy]

OMG MAN I SAW THIS MOVIE LONG LONG LONG LONG TIME A GO 1996 hahaha i was in mexiko

[9577frasier]

how the hell do people find this

[kevmoultrie1]

half that shit was not in the movie i seen beat street i ant see them brakeing in class i wish they would release that version of the movie with the stuff we ant see

[grantpre0]

YESSSS! im surprised nobody else has said this! I own this movie and have seen it 30 times probably and half of this footage is not in the movie.

[jacob7207]

Fuck yeah. I remember this shit from when I was three years old then a year later my mom took me to New York City and we rode on the subway and I was like whoa this shit is for real.

[CYBERMIK4056]

CLASSIC TIMELESS!!!hip hop dont stop!!

[nikyniceguy]

The guy who posted this said that Beat Street was the East Coasts answer to the break dance craze.... someone teach this man something.

[DJRckwl]

word.

[darksaga80]

clearly the man has no idea what hip-hop is or is familiar with the hip-hop culture. Sad, very sad.

[grantpre0]

It was the east coast answer to the west coast break dance movie " Breakin' "

[SR71BBFLYER]

@nikyniceguy

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­ha!!!!!!....Whew!!! I would love to teach him something but I can't stop laughing.. hahahahahahahaha!!!

[Sprafikk]

@nikyniceguy LMFAO I was thinkin the same

[tekiup]

@nikyniceguy Only a true B-Boy or B-Girl would understand.

[Thomasbuaroey]

@nikyniceguy haha that is so true!

[TH3NM3WITHIN1984]

best b boy film ever made, hip hop has brought more kids together from different backgrounds than any otther movement. these kids showed the rest of the world to have fun.

making something out of nothing and reaching todays level of a worldwide art.

long live the b boys and b girls of the world.

black white, whatever it dont matter stand up for our right

[jeromemania]

the best movie...

[jeromemania]

what is the name of this song???......let it beat Street ;)

[Beastie583]

Notice how in the song he calls Lee a contest winner....That guy won the part to be in Beat Street.

Trailer sucks, movie kicks ass

[retricz]

The trailer is a bit misleading but there are much more better parts in the fim that were not it the trailer :) shame hip hop is were it is now,80s ruled in every thing it was like a rebirth of colour and life and nothing has touched it since apart from the acid house early 90s rave scene but 80s changed the way we live today and forever:)

[lubosone]

Pičo základ všeho a kdo nezná je ryba

[jahovia11]

One of the best Hip Hop films of all time...

[StatikGurl21]

@jahovia11 yep and my favourite one as well !

[yatesyprenton74]

@jahovia11 the best,,,,,beats that gay breakdance the movie lol

[KarlNemetski]

Best

[Disco5100]

why in the trailer are scenes that not apear in movie?for example dancing in class room?

[jamrich]

I was thinking the same thing!

Wow amazing post man, the last time I saw this trailer was when I was like 8 and I begged my grandmoms " PLEASE take me to see Beatstreet!!!"

Such good memories, that whole hip hop culture movement was so crazy from that time and I must have saw this movie at least 50 times once we got a VCR a few years later...

[Dumpski9]

RIP RAMO

[HipHopDontStop46]

weird how half the scenes in this trailer werent actually in the movie...

[Steadno]

way back

[jec3702]

i've watched this movie a thousand times and a whole lot of things in the trailer are not in the movie. can someone tell me if there is an edited version available.

[AFFILIATEVENDOR]

THERE IS NOT AS OF YET

[Disco5100]

name of the song please:D

[MomoTheMC]

dont know the nameof the song, by it sounds like grandmaster flash. :D

[nickgiougias]

Don't know the name of the tune but it sounds like Kool Moe Dee rather than Grand Master Flash, Peace to all hip hop lovers......

[wookie72]

This is pretty innovative for a trailer of the time... most trailers at the time had a cheesy narration.

[Hellamar]

nice)

[hiphopguru81]

movies back then and now were,and are on a budget and under many time constraints so alot of good shit gets cut out in order to fufill these obligations....at the time this was made Im guessing that this was the case and they certainly were'nt thinking about DVD extras,lol........sux i know but it is what it is

[wizardsdungeon]

This is the movie right here. Second best in my opinion.

[JL0vely]

the trailer didnt even tell what the whole concept/storyline of the movie was but it still was dope lol

[steeltownbrown52]

Wow there are alot scenes in this trailer that never made it to the film(i.e. the classroom). I wonder if its available on the DVD?

[FunkyVinylJunkie]

Yeah I was thinking that too. That part is realistic, I remember busting with the homies in the classroom before or after class.

thanks for posting!

[armandoanco]

es la mejor pelicula de breakdance q vi...tengo 41 años y disfrute mucho aquella epoca...el soundtrack es excellente....se la recomiendo a todos..!

[marvymarv01]

the film of my childhood

[Khultan]

I just don't understand why, if possible, they just don't reinsert the damn missing footages. Damn.

[b00too]

..or put the deleted scenes on the dvd

[Khultan]

Maybe because it is a Hollywood backed movie and it was trying to capitalize on a potential cultural trend, for no better expression, so it may have been strictly bottom line: get the movie done and nothing else outside of the contract, does that make sense? In essence, anything that was cut from the movie, tragically, if not saved was/is destroyed.

[wookie72]

This movie was released by Orion, which has since gone bankrupt. My guess is that since it wasn't a huge success, it hasn't been deemed worthy of the deluxe DVD treatment.

[Khultan]

You could be right about that , Wookie72. Still, I can't help but think that anybody on set could have tried to document this, nobody could be so dense not to see that it ought to have been.

[wookie72]

I'm not saying the footage isn't out there - it's very rare for something like that to be completely destroyed. However, it's probably not in the best condition. What it would take is a major fan effort to revive it.

[foerever7777777]

many scenes were cut out

[sosterneto]

the best bboy film eveer

[ILustFor84]

oh this is the shit! Kool Moe Dee, another 80's hop hop rapper legend who came up with the theme song, love that song too. what sucks so much is that 80% of the scenes that appear in the trailer ARE NOT in the movie, which sucks so much and makes me real upset. thats why the movie is short.

[zerosblock]

BREAKIN

[82TheGodOfWar]

CLASSIC CLASSIC CLASSIC...

[byronbenguche]

I got the dvd version of Beat Street some of the scenes of the trailer are part of the deleted scenes that wasn't show in the original.

[gdamage]

Did you have both trailers on the dvd? both of them contain deleted scenes

[byronbenguche]

Yes I did

[gdamage]

Man i just hope they release a special edition with deleted scenes etc and reunion before i kick the bucket,is that too much to ask? lol

[ILustFor84]

i kno for real, and i hate that, cuz it makes me soo mad.

[Brooklyn1919]

alot was left on da chopping block.

[911dancecrew]

i saw this movie yesterday and i love it and im only 12 i love the 80s thats my favorite time of year and i love the way they dressed and danced

[atlyoungsta]

this was when hip hop was hip hop

[jury108]

I don't remember a lot of those scenes from the movie. I also wonder if that ex-marine guy orginally had a larger role but got cut out.

[josieldeassis]

Most of these scenes ware cut from the movie!

[paranoidpfanclub]

excellent! just got hold of a copy, going to watch it later!

[RaggaRasta]

Shout out to the MSD and BSD Posies in Bushwick, Brooklyn, NYC

[aliboy123]

Yo, After seeing this trailer, I feel like there's alot I missed on this movie. Are these scenes on the DVD?

[tripleSeats]

east coast baby the bronx in n.y west coast funny mother fuckers trying to break dance check out some of the movies wack!!!!!!!!

[freedomchicago]

With all these new dance movies for the kids nowadays that annoy me, we have to remember that for those of us born '75 to '80, these were OURS! Miss this.

[gangstermouse]

[josieldeassis]

70% of these scenes DOES NOT appear in the main movie

[tofili30]

Yes sir..east coast is where it ALL started.

[ki2the2nd]

West coast actually

[Holyfiremikey]

hip hop started in the East Coast, in the South Bronx in the 70's

[xuga2]

its sounds like Kool Moe Dee

[ILustFor84]

[mooneepondskid]

Didnt breakdancing come from the east coast?
