Nothing can replace an original.

Can’t think of anything new huh?

Won’t be the same without Patrick Swayze.

GemmaKW7

Have never seen the original - meh for a sequel

_gapman santanamontanna

Is this a good idea? Will it succeed?

I hope they cover the statutory rape in the first one (Baby was 16, he was 25- ew)

CATHERINENEVER2 No.

Just let it be ...

My favorite film! (2 it is Gone with the wind. (3)The Little Women Series. I've never watched Harry Potter and never will!

Who will replace Patrick Swayze

Hollywood is dead.

No I'm don't do it!👎 Let Patrick Swayze rest! ❣️

Patrick Swayze was the main attraction in Dirty Dancing. He'll be hard to replace.

The only good thing about that movie was Patrick Swayze.

SaRaAshcraft With everthing there is to report at the moment, you report this? Get lost, ABC Newsless

No Swayze. No thanks.

Is she then the mom in sequel and her kid will be the Dirty Dancing prom queen? Who’s the baby daddy?

Without Swayze - straight to video.

I must be the only person in the nation who is not a fan of this movie.

She did it one's, she can do it again no matter who says what 💪 just do it!!!

Wasn’t one done already?

No.

Nope

I hope it's her daughter doing the dancing.

SaRaAshcraft No thanks. Patrick Swayze is why I watch in the first place.

No

No Patrick. Not worth it.

wyskrobać każd.a dupe można ,tylko żeby brudu nie pozostawili po łajdaczącym się skurwysynie

Nope

No more racist shit...

Nope!

SaRaAshcraft What's the point? Patrick Swayze is gone it won't be the same 😭

Bad idea

The sequel nobody was clamoring for.

Without Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey’s original nose? No, Thank you.

Ugh. Whhhhyyyy?

This will be a travesty

That ship sailed when Patrick Swayze died. He was the real star. 😓

Apparently she needs a paycheck really bad.

very good..

SaRaAshcraft Can Hollywood come up with an original idea anymore? I don’t think you can replicate the magic of the original.

Dirty Old Dancing

What do we have to do to get some original ideas out of Hollywood?

WHO ASKED FOR THIS

Dont ruin it...🤷🏽‍♀️

Look... at first I was like 'hell no' but Jennifer Grey is in it and she loved and respected Swayze too much to make a trash sequel... I would hope... so I'll give it a watch

No deal things should remain as they was

❌🚫❌🚫❌🚫❌🚫❌🚫

Who is going to play Johnny, Kevin Bacon?

Great. It's a meaningful movie. Quite a symbolic significance behind the chosen shot actually. 'Baby' poses, her contours like a uterus, as she opens up to Johnny Castle. A nod to her entering womanhood and becoming adult Francis.

Please no!

Stopppppppppp it!!!!!! Hey Hollywood have some imagination and creativity!!! Stop remaking every damn movie from the 80’s and 90’s!!!

Can't do it without Patrick

NO! Leave it alone! Quit trying to remake or add to the stories that were already perfectly fine. Try to find something original instead of trying to reinvent yourselves always. Do you need an original story? I have several I can give you. But stop trying to redo older movies.

Please don't ruin a good thing. Let it rest, I beg you!

When you've run out of ideas, make a sequel. Hard pass...

SaRaAshcraft Oh yeah. That movie where a grown man fucks a teenager and nobody bats an eye.

No no no

At least they won’t have to recast the Johnny Castle character since they can just refer to him still serving his sentence for statutory. It was always SO weird that some guy that looked about 40 was into someone meant to be a teenager.

No thanks.

Just felt like posting another picture of Swayze because... Well, Patrick Swayze. That's why.

How about a Road House sequel first

Again?never had it before,not planning to have it as a premiere. GO AWAY with this nonsense to where I cannot perceive at all,visually,acoustically and mentally.😫

So it will be Ghost meets Dirty Dancing with a walker

No Patrick Swayze; no thanks.

Absolutely not. Not without this guy.

Flop

Nope!! leave this classic alone.

Losing extra weight may help you look better, but more importantly, it can take pressure off painful joints and improve overall health. LEARN TO LOSE WEIGHT WITHOUT DIET OR EXERCISE.

Nobody asked for this

The only one's that are going to be having a good time is Republican's after Nov 3, 2020. Bahahahahaha hahahahaha hahahahaha This will be Democrat's on election night.

no

PLEASE NO!

Nope, Swayze was the energy of the movie 🤦‍♀️ you can not reproduce that mans talent & charisma ever 🤦‍♀️

justplaindro

This is Conan's fault.

Why did I think this was a uterus when I first looked at it

Novel idea, Hollywood: make something NEW!

No no no no no no no no! No!

No! Without Swayze, I can't see it. Unless you get a clone of him, then I may reconsider.

Glorified under age sex with a minor, and baby murder. Wicked

Loved that movie!😍❤

Let's call it 'Geriatric Dancing'?

Won't be the same they should leave it alone

My favorite movie EVER. I don’t even know how many times I’ve watched it but NO just No on the remake STOP!

There is no eye-roll emoji big enough to show how disappointed I am with this continuation of no originality even attempted by you folks (all media, in general) over the last decade. Need for Speed XXII, perhaps? 🙄(magnified X10)

So Havana Nights is just going to be assumed that it took place in an alternate timeline?

Lifetime tv movie right ?

very very very BAD idea!!!!

I still haven’t seen the original.

What comes around goes around- I'll tell why why why (I don't know, for some reason I keep hearing these words..)

Will it be taking place in a nursing home?

Wasn’t the girl 17 and dude was 25?

No one needs this.

No Swayze No dice
