    They didn't learn a damn thing with last year's Footloose remake. Last year there was a minor uproar of fans when Lionsgate announced it was remaking the 1987 classic that made stars of unknown actors Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey. The film was supposed to be released this summer. Now plans have been pushed back for 2014. At first it was announced that original film dance choreographer, Kenny Ortega, was going to take the directorial helms of the film. With push back date now seems unlikely Ortega will be available. So, who can take the task of a silly melodrama with lots of dance numbers? Enter Bollywood director, Shekhar Kapur. While all the buzz is that the Indian director will be the one putting Baby in the corner, the director himself denies the rumours and states that he is currently hard at work on his next film, Paani.

    Lets ask Hanz what he knows about this.

    Never watched the original, certainly wouldn't sit through a remake.

    You are not missing anything. That is one of the most overrated films ever made.
