I was watching american television online last night when it was interupted for adverts, now this time it caught my attention, the splash screen was for "Footloose", and for a few seconds, the thought was "ah they are re-releasing the 80's classic with Kevin", but then the scene starting playing out and it turns out MTV have remade this corny classic. This has to be one of the last remakes of 80's movies, its not that old really and they are redoing it. And it wasnt that good just a cult following thats all. The original was badly scripted the acting was mediocre and it was definately cringeworthy! but they have remade it anyway and set it in modern american high school.
I cant get into the plot as its corny the point is they have remade yet another movie from only 20 years ago! is there really that litle left in the idea bank that they have to yet again attack a cult classic, whats next breakfast club, which wont work without the original cast. Back to the future Again....howard the duck..oh right sorry there is one 80's film that could benefit from a remake. But really, we need better and new ideas not remakes. This will end up as a TV movie of the week by next year....EOL
