I hear they are changing the line from "I used to fuck guys like you in prison" to "I used to fuck guys like you while camping"

If I’m gonna watch Roadhouse and beat off, this is the wrong Gyllenhaal.

[mdmost 43059]

Remaking Roadhouse. Good one. You almost got me.

[Frank The Tank 1499]

I’m not saying it’s gonna be good, but Jake Gyllenhal won’t be the problem. Did you see Southpaw? I have no issue believing he’ll get in shape enough to look like a UFC fighter/bouncer, and he’s a great actor. It didn’t need to be remade, but I’ll still watch it. 

[Surly Bevo 25216]

Everybody.  I want you to be nice.  I want you to remember it's a message board, it's nothing personal

He’s replacing a ballet dancer turned actor. He’s less of a WTF than Swayze would’ve been in the original if anyone had given a shit about it when it was cast.

I’m getting old but still glad I grew up enjoying movies before the internet told me I was a complete rube for doing so

[dcar00 14380]

this is stupid.  A Road House doesn't exist anymore.  A bar is just a place people drink and stare at phones now. 

[South Austin 52634]

Fuck this entire planet.

I cant wait to see a blind woman playing electronic music on her iPad behind some chicken wire. 

Casting choice for said blind woman...

They gonna be fighting over their appletinis and tofu slider, facon infused bloody Mary’s?   Perhaps a few Grindr dates gone wrong?

This thread will invariably be worse than the movie.

Probably something like the Vanderpump Cocktail Garden, but with more flowers.

After the success of Top Gun 2, I'm willing to give this thing a shot.  Pay homage to the old one, add some new stuff and don't insult the audience.

Whoever’s behind this

Taylor Swift should play the Kelly Lynch character.

As long as Melissa McCarthy doesn't play Wade Garrett.

If you beat off to Maggie "The Turtle", you should kill yourself

This is some fucking bullshit.

In accordance with Hollywood zero footprint rules, the role of Bigfoot will now be played by Prius.

No, it's the thread where people who appreciate classic movies bitch about them being ruined by a young generation of moviemakers who can't come up with an original idea on their own

Jake G? Was Keanu not available? I liked his dancing in The Replacements.

Sturgill got 20x the exposure from Yellowstone that he’d get from this festering pile of soon to be shit.
