The gang fight

Overall, I enjoyed this film except for the deplorable rape scene and the mega-phony gang fight. I understand that Fallon and Barnyard were tough but Drugstore was a wuss and Stegman was more brains than brawn. There's no way the 4 of them would squash the 6 big Black dudes they fought in such one-sided fashion. Also, I know this is fantasy but one small group running a school full of tough kids???? I questioned these things in the theatre at age 16 and recently at age 46 while watching the Anchor Bay dvd.

I was waiting to see who their drug supplier was. I kept thinking through the whole thing that the principle or someone was the mastermind. But they had bats and long melee weapons which gave them a huge advantage over the black gang

If that was done today that black gang would've had guns. Sadly hand to hand combat is a thing of the past.

They won the gang-fight because they had better weapons (more advantage with baseball bats over flick-knives).
