    Tough one, because I'm not sure if this thread correctly belongs here or in the movie forum. One thing I do know is I can't get upset about a Road House remake. The story of an asskicking bouncer kicking ass can never get old.

    Awful movie.

    I could just never buy into the idea of that dirty dancing fruit loop playing a tough guy.

    while the movie was bad it's still one my favorites.

    By the way swayze was pretty deep in Kung Fu, Akido & TKD

    REED was just about to Say, Swayze Would've Handled Himself Quite Well w/Normal, Everyday Guys, Due to his Background in Martial Arts...

    Swayze was the rare stud who could get away with doing pansy stuff.

    Rousey isn't big enough to be a bouncer.

    Bulk her up and get some short actors. Swayze was a little guy too.

    Swayze weight 170 and was 5-10.

    Problem is Swayze could act.

    Maybe the new Roadhouse takes place in a Lesbian bar.

    he could even act like he was all buff. I couldn't believe the guy from dirty dancing looked so small in this civil war tv saga.

    "Road House" was an enjoyable movie. Not a "good" movie, but an enjoyable one. Funny as fuck if watched in the right context with enough people in the room with you.

    Either they go all camp with the remake, or they try to make it a serious take on the female dynamic in the male-dominated world of bouncers.

    Either way I have a hard time believing this will be anything other then "meh".

    If she's the main character they should go all in, and just make it in a lesbian bar (like somebody already mentioned), where Rhonda submits women left and right and sideways with her scissor kick style judo.

    Somebody should move this to the movie/TV thread. We need Irish's take on this delicate subject. :lol:
