I'd a search and didn't see anything. So they'll just remake anything today, huh?

Good thing the title has nothing to do with surfing.

I hope the ghost of Patrick Swayze comes back and goes Dawson on the a-hole behind this.

I really like the original. A remake is totally unnecessary.

If you really want to get technical, they already did this with The Fast and the Furious and cars. At least they changed the name.

Is not even about point break really being that good. It just fit that generation PERFECTLY and doesn't even make sense to remake it today


It's so perfectly cheesy the way it is

Point Break is considered the template for that sort of movie. There are many imitation scripts floating around, they just change the locale.

If Keanu plays Gary Busey's role, I'm in.


ETA: I had no idea Kathryn Bigelow directed the original.
