Oh boy...

A remake of FOOTLOOSE?? The one and only show you can dance to with just your feet in the beginning?! And sing ALL the songs.
I wonder how Kenny Loggins is feeling about this?
This is really eating at me. Here's my list why:
1. The majority of the iconic shots from the first film are in the trailer for the new film.
2. It was not shot in Utah, at the famous Lehi Roller Mills! Now everytime I drive by the Roller Mills I can't shout "Footloose was shot there" I now have to say "Footloose the original was shot there" So inconvenient.
3.Ren IS NOT Kevin Bacon
4. When hearing this line... "Hey Hey! What's this I see? I thought this was a party? LET'S DANCE!" doesn't that just make you want to jump up and dance like they do??-Only Kevin could do that to me.
5. No one can be as skinny as that skinny girl Ariel.

I could sit here and make my list go to 100 reasons why I'm ERKED but I will let you see for yourself. I know I haven't seen the remake but I have a feeling it's going to be a 'Step Up' episode Xlll

This is a sad, sad day for me.

I don't think it looks all that bad. Of course, it won't hold a flame to the original. I like the new Ariel, she's hot. I heard they asked Zack Effron to do Ren and he turned it down.

With all my disgust for the remake I will probably end up going alone to the midnight showing...

After much in depth thought about this subject I have come to the conclusion that I wont like the new movie for many reasons-but here is the #1 reason why: Movies this day and age ask for dancers who can act. It use to be actors who can dance ex. Night Fever and Grease with John Travolta, Footlose with Kevin Bacon, Dirty Dancing with Patrick Swayze. And those were the classic famous movies. If you're going to do a remake of one of the classics, you need someone who can act!! Ren looks like a horrible actor.
Oh, and what's up with all the dirty dancing? Lame Lame Lame Lame. Oh and what's up with all the back flips from off of the cars? Is that suppose to be dancing? It's not.
But yes jessie, I too will probably end up going alone to the midnight showing.
