The Hollywood remake machine trundles on, and the latest classic movie in it's sights is one that will no doubt stoke the ire of many a movie fan (myself included). 1989's Road House, which had Patrick Swayze in the iconic role as James Dalton, the bad ass bouncer of a small town dive bar, has being picked up by MGM, with Rob Cohen (the first The Fast and The Furious, xXx, Daylight) attached to direct. Michael Stokes, whose previous script Crash Bandits is also in development with Cohen, will be providing the script.
Now, I wouldn't call Road House one of the cinematic greats, but it is a fantastically cheesy and infinitely entertaining movie, and I'm hoping against hope that this remake will do it justice.
