Road House...the remake

teachercd said:
In my life there are two movies that I still don't know how they were green lighted. 

1:  Footloose.   I love the movie but imagine trying to convince a studio to give you money for it??

2.  Roadhouse...I mean...it is about a legendary bouncer/cooler

Cocaine and the 1980s.

Road House is one of maybe 2 movies that, if it's on, I'll watch it no matter what time it is.

Man that is a shame.  I feel bad that you missed out on it.  It's Legendary. 

I'm not sure if you watch it these days for the very first time that it would feel like it when it came out.  Meaning, it was an era movie and it was super cheesy........ So cheesy you didn't mind watching 5, 6, 8 or 12 times again.  

But if you do watch it, I hope you like it.  Keep in mind it was a late 80s vibe. And the film definitely shows it's time period. 

I mean, if I never saw "Say Anything" or "Heathers" or "Weird Science" or "Risky Business" or "St. Elmos Fire"..........I'm not sure if I would like them today seeing them for the first time.  But back then?  Shoot....

You have to watch Road House simply because Kelly Lynch is throwing 98mph gas in it. Man, she is so good looking.

That's awesome!  Just remember to have low to no expectations.

And be sure to have a good greasy bar platter food ready to go when you watch it.

You will start out like this.....

Which will turn a into this.....

Then some more of this.....

And by halfway into... it will feel and look like this....

So, I am not sure about all of you but I watch movies to kill time and not to be "impressed" 

Just entertain me, that is all.  Road House is horrible but it is entertaining because it is so bad but tries to be serious.

Road House is great because he round houses a bunch of dudes. That's it. That's the movie. 

But I agree with you. I don't think I'm easily entertained but I'm definitely not snobby about "films"
