I was only 10 when my Mom took me and my older brother to see this when it came out. When this scene started, the theater erupted in applause and people were whistling loud! You had to be there!
@@sirbarnabyst.johntoffingto9017 Yes, it feels like a parody of the character...and why does he want to go for a 'strut', he is not part of the audience, that is just normal walking for him, it seems daft to me. Trying to make a sequel was daft, but apparently Stallone made the movie and I think he was seduced by the Rocky and Rambo formula, trying to make lightning strike in the same place twice (well, perhaps Rambo was never a great film itself, but Rocky was) with sequel upon sequel.
Actually he was skinny in Saturday night fever. Here he got in shape he was ripped not big . He had to get in shape for the part. It makes sense in Fever he was 19 yr old who took care of his hair than his body. Here he's more older he has worked on his body now along with hair plus were in 1983 vs 1977. He was king of dance in bay ridge while here he's not the best dancer he's been working on being a better dancer.
Stallone got him in shape. Apparently Travolta was going thru a slump and this brought him back even though everyone thinks it was a flop. It's good in it's own right and it shows a progression of his character in a new environment with new stakes...but moral of the story is some bad habits help you when you are staying aliiiiiive. Underrated movie.
It's crazy how something so simple as this gets me into the most mellow, peaceful mood...I loved Saturday Night Fever, and although this one didn't have the greatest reviews, Stallone wrote a fine script, and this movie was very fun, with a nice soundtrack as well.
I love this movie! Despite its low RT rating, it's fun to see Tony evolve past his crude and callow youth to become a person of substance as well as supreme talent. It's not as violent as the original movie, and is generally more pleasurable to watch, IMO, even if it lacks some of the dramatic weight of its 1977 predecessor. Critics be damned.
"The movie has one great moment. A victorious Tony says 'I want to strut!' and struts across Times Square while the Bee Gees sing 'Stayin' Alive.' That could have been the first shot of a great movie. It's the last shot of this one." - Roger Ebert
I saw this movie on a plane in 84. The movie was so bad I wanted to walk out. But when this part came on I stood up with my plastic headphones and shouted YEAH!
This brings back memories...my wife, me and friends walked past him while he was shooting this scene....Sylvester Stallone was a decoy at the corner of 42nd on Broadway..we had just gotten his autograph and continued up 42nd when who should come strutting towards us...still have the photos
javlanoub Alpha??? Shaking one's ass is alpha? Perhaps alfa,not alpha,what s wrong with being gay? What s wrong with a cucumber in a man's anus? That s sick n twisted...poor cucumbers.
See how confidently he walks His face is full of hope and trust His body language finely talks That he has in living real interest See his hips move very gently His eyes survey the surrounding He enjoys life behaving jubilantly This brief picturing is astounding.
I just watched this movie tonight for the first time since it came out in 1983 and I must say that anything directed by Sylvester Stallone is a masterpiece. I enjoyed it better than Saturday Night Fever. Especially the end strut with Bee Gees in the background.
❤I truly love watching John Travolta strut. He even struts when he goes up stairs!! Now he is doing an AMAZING Capital One commercial as Santa Claus called Sleighin Alive!!! It is EXCELLENT❤
Classic movie. John Travolta was perfect in it. How he danced! I think people are all over him now because of rumors. He was great in the movie "Michael" and did a great dance scene in that also. Here's to the Bee Gees and John Travolta!
This is possibly the best part of the whole movie! I like certain parts, like for example the beginning, a few punchlines, and definitely Sylvester's cameo, but to be honest, I expected the movie to be better. Oh well, the final strut is awsome! I started dancing in my seat as soon as the song started, it's perfect strut music!
@@NiGiff lmao! ive done this too some dude trying to play me over a girl when he bought her drinks all night lol. i played a song in bar when i walked out with her.
JOHN TRAVOLTA is cooler than the other side of the pillow.....dude just screams coolness..........who still loves the 1983 movie STAYING ALIVE today in JULY 2023?.....that would be me.....i was 9 years old when this movie came out and i wanted to be as cool as JOHN TRAVOLTA.He is without a doubt my favorite actor of all time.
Fantastic, - just wish had a time machine. Thanks so much for posting this! Lots of negative comments but if you'd lived in those times and liked this music and fashion you'd love it!
Dont understand criticism on this movie. Character like him deserved success that we did not see in Fever. Nothing but drugs, tragic death and a local contest he barely won. The scene he talks with his mother on Staying Alive is nothing but true: she was glad he left that neighborhood. Cynthia also killed it. Great soundtrack (nom to a Grammy and Golden Globe) as well.
Ver esta imagen una y otra vez. Intentar caminar ,bailar y vestir . Me trae enormes recuerdos . Que impacto esta en aquella época. Benditos y bendecidos los que pudimos transmitirla y sentirla ...👏👏👏🕺
This will NEVER get old.
@@babyjupiter24TV dude, the last 5 min totally make up for the train wreck 🤣
NEVER! 🤣
AMEM
Except for John Travolta
I totally agree...brings back so many memories and makes me smile:)
I never thought watching someone walk could be so captivating.
faz1991 lol, sometimes when i left work.. i listen that song and somehow.. i start walkin like that 😅
LOL I Agree 💙😉
Yess
I know 😲!!! Just awesome !!! NOTHING else to do, so I'll watch it again and again. Then go watch the movie.
@@ItzKamo
Really funny !!!
When you strut so hard you don't know where you are and you fade away
+Caleb Hardman It's a good strut but a Hicky from Kenickie is like a Hallmark Card, when you only care enough to send the very best !
😂 I sincerely hope he NEVER got a hickey from kenickie...
No one will ever walk like John Travolta ...
This is a fact.
Love how Saturday Night Fever starts with him strutting and Staying Alive finishes the same way like Tony Maneros story coming full circle .
John Travolta was cool before being cool was cool.
so when he was cool he wasn't cool? kind of like how we look at him now
Andre Wales Ignoring your rhetorical Q, you don't get it...but the women did.. and that's what "men" like you didn't like... and still don't.
What does that even mean?!
and he was always gay the whole time.
Juan Torrez Cornejo yes he was look how they showing him from front to back producers and camera men gay as hell lol
Travolta owned the sidewalk, the road, and all…..best strut ever!!!
I love that laugh he does at the end...
same 😍😍
I was only 10 when my Mom took me and my older brother to see this when it came out. When this scene started, the theater erupted in applause and people were whistling loud! You had to be there!
I love these memories. The cinema experience of a film is magic. The energy of the people. It’s great.
One of the best final scenes in movies ever!!!
💯💯💯💯
Only if the movie was good as well lmao.
One of the worst lol
Ramon you are 100% correct. I lived the Disco era....this people don't know shit
The ending was superb!!! The film in general was meh.
boys: swag
men: class
ultimate gentlemen: STRUT
That fantastic smile at the very end is everything ❤
Yep…it’s the smile of a guy whose ship finally came in. This scene was great.
Still makes me happy watching John strut after all these years. ❤️
The best part of this entire movie.
jack ryan they made fun of this in sooo many tv shows/movies 😂😂💀💀
The only good part
Roger Ebert said it’s the only great moment of the film!
Yes, this song is the only song worth listening to in this crappy 80s movie.
jack ryan the movie was good. Besides John Travolta looks way better in this movie.
Two of my favorite things.This song and John Travolta.
I don't know who you are, but I like you guy!
Only Travolta can strut and look cool 👍🏻
A scene like this can be hit or miss, but John Travolta makes it too cool for words
It's corny as f***!

Totally had a strut moment today, earphones in and I realised I was walking exactly in time with the music! It's been a great day ever since!!
I don't think Travolta ever looked better in his career as he did here. He totally slimmed down for this movie.
Actually he was skinny in Saturday night fever. Here he got in shape he was ripped not big . He had to get in shape for the part. It makes sense in Fever he was 19 yr old who took care of his hair than his body. Here he's more older he has worked on his body now along with hair plus were in 1983 vs 1977.

A walk that every guy know how it feels !!
It's the exact opposite of the walk of shame! 🤣
and it feels GOOD !!
That may be the most adorable thing ever. He's so goddamn cute!
Believe it or not, of all the great scenes from the 2 movies, this will always be my favorite of all the scenes.
It's crazy how something so simple as this gets me into the most mellow, peaceful mood...I loved Saturday Night Fever, and although this one didn't have the greatest reviews, Stallone wrote a fine script, and this movie was very fun, with a nice soundtrack as well.
LaVar Ball THIS MOVIE IS MY LIFE!!! THE SOUNDTRACK AND THE DANCING IS JUST...AAAAAHHH THE FEELZ🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Sounds like we would get along well. This is one of my top films.
Stallone ruined this film.
Back in the 80s Stallone took accolades as one of the best script writers in Hollywood.
min 0:16 thats me after clearing the paternity test, dudes "you are NOT the father!"

I could watch this scene over and over again... Epic !!!
Omg no way, ME TOO
Can't get sexier than John Travolta back then!
Randi Holbrook Personally, I would have preferred Finola Hughes!
+Alan Heath Naaaa... i'll take a local NYer over a stiff Brit any day...;)
He still is sexy
John Goodman or Charles During back in the day...mmyea

The hair is a bit longer; and looks better this time around; but the strut is the same, sheer perfection, no one does it like Travolta.
Travolta was one chiselled good looking mu'fucka back in '83
John T That’s because he worked out every day for 6 months for this film. He had 6 hours dance session and worked out.
@@cristiansolares2007yea, he ballooned to over 250 in the early 80s after his films bombed. Sylvester Stallone got him back in shape for this film.
This brings back memories...my wife, me and friends walked past him while he was shooting this scene....Sylvester Stallone was a decoy at the corner of 42nd on Broadway..we had just gotten his autograph and continued up 42nd when who should come strutting towards us...still have the photos
Wow. How cool is that!. I wonder if there was any music so he could strut in time to to it. Fascinating post, Thank You!
Muito legal!! Adoraria ver as fotos, uma época maravilhosa que não volta mais...
John Duffy are you saying it wasn't a closed set ?
that is so bitchen, guess how old I am? I could watch him all day, even now. He is one bitchen dude.
Pictures or it didn't happen
Ah the 80s good times good times.
That's me after an exam
Anything wrong with being gay? But besides, how is Travolta's strut here gay? It's alpha as fuck
Agree....depending on the exam.
you wish. Tony was sexy.
javlanoub Alpha??? Shaking one's ass is alpha? Perhaps alfa,not alpha,what s wrong with being gay? What s wrong with a cucumber in a man's anus? That s sick n twisted...poor cucumbers.
Me after I fail an exam.
See how confidently he walks
His face is full of hope and trust
His body language finely talks
That he has in living real interest
See his hips move very gently
His eyes survey the surrounding
He enjoys life behaving jubilantly
This brief picturing is astounding.
What passes as Swag now a days doesn't even come close to STRUT!!!
I love how he smiles at the camera!
man i wish i was born in this era
Me leaving the office on a Friday at 5
This is the best comment omg
The Friday I get paid
Victory strut! Feels like a man.
lmao
But what would be you coming in to work on a Monday at 6?
The greatest ending to any film ever
Travolta never got the respect and credit he earned and deserved.

It was the 80's... Plenty of cheese in this film... But this scene kicks ass.
I am 70 now and never saw anything like Travolta in his film. Which I of course saw when it was a new film.

Looking back, this movie captures perfectly the dream to make it big in the Big Apple.
True story: I once left a job the exact same way.
Lol
@@TailsA-sk4si Of course!
@Roach Dogg JR For all rights and purposes, yes.
Good!I love it.
@@NiGiff lmao! ive done this too some dude trying to play me over a girl when he bought her drinks all night lol. i played a song in bar when i walked out with her.

A lot of cool ass actors in the world. But Johns the only one who could have done this scene with that performance. Showing how to strut!
The Strut that kicks off Saturday Night Fever is Oscar winning Material for sure. This is the second runner up.
A Great one!
John Travolta + The Strut = The sexiest thing I've ever seen!!!
Amen
I've always loved the guy at :24 who's just leaning against the building taking it in. 😎
JOHN Travolta was the coolest dude! 🦅🦅🇺🇸
The final strut was a legendary ending to an otherwise okay movie, and really made it a decent,supporting sequel.
He don´t walk like the boss, HE IS THE BOSS.
The boss of 70s disco
best ending to a film ever
Awesome, my condolences about his late wife
no one struts like Travolta
Every now and again, this is it. Walkin’ tall.
I was just at a wedding, and when the DJ played "Staying Alive," I screamed out, "Do you know what I wanna do???"
This is how I picture myself walking into work every day but I know I look like a goober 😂
Love this movie and song and John can dance. When I hear this song I want to dance the 70s were the best
What he played caused a revolution and a cinematic masterpiece
I wish I can see how his generation were looking at him. He was beyond cool.
Greatest Strut In The History Of Movies, Travolta You Rock Forever! 💯🤘
Love it- thanks for this- has to be Travolta saying the lines every time. Check at that grin on his face at the end.
OH MAN, OLD TIMES SQUARE!!! WOW! I USE TO HANG THERE IN THE 70'S AND 80'S AND EAT AT HOWARD JOHNSON. WOW! GREAT TO SEE THAT.
Besides his dancing. He had the coolest walk ever.
He was awesome back in the day. A NYC icon.
Great classic movie with great actor. I hope disco comes again to our lives.
Who the hell would give this vid a thumbs down
Pfft...people these days
Cos they are clueless of the original scene with SNF
John Travolta as Tony Manero...
Grazie
Gorgeous, young Travolta. He looked soooo good here. I luv Italians!
Wow! I was 13 years in 1983 I remember John Travolta.
Fantastic, - just wish had a time machine. Thanks so much for posting this! Lots of negative comments but if you'd lived in those times and liked this music and fashion you'd love it!
10 years later finding your comment but still and forever true!!!!!💜☮️💜✌️
That's how ive always walked.
Even do it at 3am while walking to the bathroom then back to bed.
awww crap, now I’m doing it
Lmfao even at a funeral?
@@gils1930 same here
TONY MANERO STILL GOT THE MOVES
Strut: one of the most glorious pleasures of life 🙌

Love the guy at 0:24--leaning against the wall as Travolta struts by, smirking at how dang cool it all is....
My mom played this a lot when I was a kid
now that is called having it. travolta has it. not many people will know what i mean by that but travolta has bucket loads of it.
“YOU KNOW WHAT I WANNA DO, U KNOW WHAT I WANNA DO!!!!.... Strut
This movie may have gotten so many poor reviews, but I don't care. It's one of my faves! ❤❤❤
I can watch this over and over!!!
Why is it that men don't strut like John anymore! LOL! Top Stuff
I fucking love that haircut
love the way he walks and the music!!
I entered a rite-aid and Stayin' Alive was playing. I wanted to just strut around that place like a BOSS while doing my shopping.
I love NY and Disco Music
Wow. Look at how Times Square looked liked in the early 80s. How it has changed!!!
Oh yea. You can see the old Howard Johnson’s there - $3 cocktails! And fried clams!
Fights over payphones
They cleaned it up in the mid 90s, all the porn and sleaze is gone and now it’s basically a giant LED display.
@@hadihatab3126 It's a tourist attraction it used to be a hustlers playground
I used to like the 80's gritty Times Square! Epic times hanging in the city as a teen! 🕺
When you walk out of an arcade after beating an arcade game on 1 quarter while there's a crowd around you.Priceless.
music and movies will never be this good again.
Best scene of the movie,,,,by far.
this song plays in my head every step i take..
He’s too cool
John was the coolest man of 70s 80s
The only part of the movie worth watching. I remember when I saw this in the theater the girls in the audience went crazy over this scene
Little did they know
