It's like everyone forgot or don't know he worked with him in Donnie Darko

When Thomas Jefferson succeeded Franklin in 1785, French Foreign Minister Vergennes asked: “It is you who replace Dr. Franklin?” Jefferson replied, “No one can replace him, Sir; I am only his successor.” Jake is channeling Jefferson in him succeeding Patrick Swayze.

Daniela Melchior is very intriguing. Similar vibes to a ‘young’ Margot Robbie…

Shouldn't have made this garbage if you wanted to honor Swayze

I already didn't like what I was hearing about the story as I was hoping for something true to the original but seeing a politically correct cast screaming about girl power is a bad sign and look bottom line it's looking like it's just another woke reboot and not road house in any way.

Sounds like it's about 10% of that shit, but I'd doubt it's shoehorned in like most films now..... we can hope

This movie SUCKS!! Why make a remake if you are going to change everything? I think it’s clear by now, that going woke with everything is a really bad business model. 👎🏻
