There’s … just no. You can’t remake Road House because Road House is a perfect distillation of cheesy late 80’s action

You have cartoonishly thin plotting and villainy.
You have cartoonish physical violence.
You have cartoonishly notable sex and nudity.

You can’t replicate those in 2021 and it’s not like Road House has a plot that hasn’t been ripped off by any number of other movies.

- I at least can see a gender bender remake…and she’s tacky enough to fit the ethos. -- (edited) - Will Hunting Nov 11, 08:34
- I remember that. -- nm - Remlik Nov 11, 08:33
