Disgrace to Chris Penn's memory!


WTF Hollywood! Get a clue! If you need to remake a movie! Make it one thats not a classic like this is!
I bet Chris Penn is turning in his grave!
To be honest ive not saw the movie as yet and i dont intend to! But i know that it should never have been remade! Whats next??? Dirty Dancing??? Saturday Night Fever??? Flashdance???
Make something original! Please for the love of God!

Thank you. I so agree to the remake of Footloose.I am so upset that people have so much of a wish of being from the 70's and 80's that they feel the need to ruin an iconic, cult movie . Its an insult to change it to county hick music. Seriously are the big wigs in Hollywood so desperate to make some money to ruin a good movie they would go this far. OMG next thing its going to be Ghost or even Tremors....lol I mean come on make up your own script.

Who gives 5 Fcks about Christopher Penn? He wasnt anymore a decent actor then his brother. The film didn't live or die on C.P.s role.

You know what? I really doubt that Chris Penn cares about this remake. Don't use him and his death to bash a movie. Leave him out of it, because I don't think he gives a crap about this movie!

And another thing: Given the fact that you can't be bothered to watch the remake, I don't think you have the right to criticize it! Watch the remake. Then formulate an opinion about it.

The only way Chris Penn could turn in his grave is with a forklift.

How Chris Penn died was a disgrace to his own legacy!
