Footloose Final Dance 1984 to 2011 

Well-stated!! This seems so manufactured by a generation that is used to Instagramming everything.

I think it is because both legal and social restrictions were quite high in 80's. So overcoming of a restriction resulted in heightened mood compared to 2022's...

Was there really this glitter overlay in the original? Seems odd now

Effortless - the original

This comment makes me glad I haven’t seen the remake

I agree the original had better dancing.

I love remakes unlike most people but I have to agree with you. The 84' version was a bunch of unknowns making a teen movie that the had no idea would go on to become iconic. Their dance scene was like a bunch of people showing off their moves at prom or at a wedding, doing the Soul Train line type thing. The new version was like a flash mob or choreographed dance at a wedding. Still fun and interesting to watch but lacking spontaneous joy

The remake was great but yeah i can understand the original usually beats the new versions.

Nah, the original have better soundtrack and that's all, the dance in the original is goofy asf 😂😂😂

I was born in 82 🤟

Totally great decade to be a teenager. Class of '89 here

@@gracecase998 Class of 2001 here but I remember this movie. 😁

@@gracecase998 I was class of 88

Class of 85 here

from that time to now only decadence....

Before cell and internet

Facts so happy I was born in the 80's so many memories like this movie when it came out in 1984 😊

60's is superior 😌 but 80's had the best music

I love both. Best music

Virginia Clark agreed

I totally agree u can only find a good song once in awhile if that now but then they had amazing musical and movies and it just seems so awesome and there dancing was more better then then it is no

Virginia Clark so true about the 80s best movies and music

I totally agree

Well, there was also the 60's and 70's. Some incredible music from there. But I agree that after the 80's there is little to get excited about. Some good songs and some really good movies but most of it is formulaic crap.

I liked the 11 version too.

Plus the movie was shot in a small town in Utah where music and dancing were illegal at the time.

My 2 sisters was listening to the 90's version when I was young. The first version is the best. This song is coming out of nowhere. I 'am proud to be born in the 90's

Ah! Where did they get all that energy from? Mean the real people at those times!

@@Sam_me_dit What`s 90`s have to do with this?

You can that say that with a lot of 80s movies. By the middle 90s movies became to polished

Exactly

Yeah, 38 years at this point. While I'm a 2 left feet kinda guy, I can at least tap 'em whenever I hear the music. BTW, is it me or is the 2011 version kinda blurry? Even at 720 setting. Weird.

Hows the hip😎

2011 dance bettwr

In the 80’s people danced just because they loved the music. Everybody could dance & you didn’t need lessons or special talent to join in.

Me too!!

Yes we did dance alot in the 80's 😊 man I miss the 80's so much fun

🌺😄😇🌸

I miss remembering the eighties 😳😷🇨🇦

Absolutly

The remake sucks👎🤮

I agree wholeheartedly and I have the 80s version on my playlist, always :)

I agree 100%. I miss the 80's also. Good times.

ikr like when did they learn all that? but is is so cool

I don't know if it's in the remake, but the kids already knew how to dance when it was outlawed. They would sneak to the next town to be able to go dancing, so they never really stopped

Those dancers were from LA.

@@ljohnson4881 Louisiana? Crazy. Lol.

SICK is only in your mind.

Right? But that's pretty much just because the dancing in the 80s version was more a social dancing. Also, I'm sure there weren't as many studios back then to teach stuff like that, especially street dancing.

@@atmos3155 thats not the point,,,this was a highschool dance,,,at a real high school dance you ain't gonna have dozen fucking people out of no where doing the exact same dancing and doing all these flips in shit. 2011 version was pretty trash.

yeah because the remake is a shitty soulless modern hollywood movie that needed to meet racial quotas and appear in vines/youtube videos. They weren't making a movie. They were trying to create a brand

dont you understand? they had to have acrobatic flips and break dancing because they had to represent "minority dancing". It had to be in your face the entire time or you might not have seen they were trying. They think having dudes doing street dance moves would make this movie popular with Black audiences so they could make more money. and before someone says "the original had flips and break dancing" Lol no. The OG movie had wacked out white kids pretending to break dance and doing weird flips. It's meant to be goofy because theyre so turnt up. the remake has a bunch of professional dancers doing Chris Brown moves.

Me Gusta Más la Versión De Los 80.❤

ya to be honest, NOBODY will remember the remake, just the classic

Loving Life and the Ocean bee bee gees bee gees

kavish seecharan . . ppp . , 0o

yes because it gives nostalgia otherwise it is very obvious that new version is more fast and much better.. also this new lead dancer is more talented dancer than kevin bacon

M Muneeb most fast and more edited, its not talent of dancers

M Muneeb You are missing the point, I lived this pal, you are not listening to the lyrics, "everybody could footloose", and that's why this movie was so big, because it was true, we all could do it just like in the movie. What you see in the remake, you gotta be a professional dancer to do that shit, regular people like you couldn't make those moves even in your sleep.

M Muneeb Kevin Bacon was a very natural dancer, very fluent and real along with all the other dancers in the 80's version, none of it look rehearsed unlike in the movie. Although I did like some of the things they did in the new version it could never be what the 80's version is. Don't even get me started on Blake Shelton's version of Footloose because ugh, that was just not right. Although I do enjoy some of Blake's music it's hard to top Kenny Loggins.

Don't tell John lithgow

Me too , love this shit

Yes❤️❤️

@@tammiebrumbaugh7885 yes

Glad to see what only happy humans at heart can do! ❤️

Manuel Lugo just because it was forbidden doesn’t mean they’d never dance before in secret or before the rule was made 😂

Public dancing was against the law. Key word there being public. So they could have danced in the privacy of their homes or danced anyways.

Manuel Lugo The ones the camera doesn't focus on, dance like Baby's sister.

when you feel the music, you feel the music

Exactly !!!

que bom que eles mudaram ❤

exactly!!!

I have never had the tıme of my life, maybe ı should go dancıng, ı am only 45 so ıt ıs tıme now

...but hardly anyone else is. That Rogaine...!

🤣😂

I literally lol’ed😆

😂😂🤣

I genuinely laughed 🤣

See the umbrella vs the sparrow dancing is the best thing i see in this year till now, even id ir was an allucination

@@Retrogamer-pl9zu I was so confused! But I was enjoying it too much to figure out the logistics of it so once we realised it's a hallucination,it made sense😂

I was so excited when they did that theme bc its my favorite dance movie

I was watching this to try and figure out if they changed the dance to see if I was learning the og version or the umbrella academy version, turns out I'm learning the umbrella academy version ajjajaja

I see that kkkkkkkk

Then get out of your bed, turn the volume up and get those hips shakin WOOH!!!

MSP GALL WOOOOOHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FOOTLOOSE!!!!!

Hey,....Kris....what can I say...I am 53 years old and saw this film when I was high school in Korea....damm....I feel like just yesterday I saw this movie.....geez...time flies...

Awesome dance moves

Oh yeah, you can tell he was sneaking across the state line, & practicing down in the basement to get them moves.

"even today" ?

I can here just to watch him

He kinda reminds me of Mr. Wave but not as good of course.

exacto!!!

Agreed!

yeah...remember those days when we had to use our mouths to speak to people? I told my daughter "you don't know what records are!!" she said "Oh yes I do!! those are those great big black cds!" lol

+Mike Lazembie actually she does have a point...lmao

I refuse to get on board with those, I'll never cell out. LAN line is plenty.

Exactly!

Agree 100%

I have never seen footloose the 2011 one or the 1984 version but it sounds like the 1984 footloose is better than the 2011 one

oh hell yeah!!! that's exactly what the 1984 version was all about, just having a great time, not show off bullshit

I agree

Yeah it sould stay so

Luis I barely watched the whole movie. I wasn't impressed.

Way on way

me too I like the 1984 one

Denischa Briddell you can always tell when a society is. collapsing. when movie makers try and make a great movie better and turns out to be crap! that movie was made for the 80's. Don't poison an icon with today's no, class, no style Bs!!

You cannot make a remake of an original .Its sacraligious.

Alyssa Puente i completely agree

Kevin Bacon

I think we knew what U meant - Cheers

It sucks we aren’t allowed to play those kinds of songs in schools anymore, you know someone is going to get upset over A BANGER SONG.

@@police428 they still play these at school functions lol

Nice!!!

WHAT TF OUTLAWED DANCING WHY DAMN ID BE ON DEATH ROW THEN OR LIFER

What fun! I would have been right there in the middle of it! Love this!

Christina Doxstader That was the whitest dancing I have ever seen in my life. And I actually know white folks who can dance.

If you outlaw dancing then only outlaws will dance. ;)

It was outlawed recently (in the movie), so they already knew how to dance. It's not that it was generations of no dancing going on.

Com certeza,, não adianta inventar versões, a de 1984 é a melhor, não existira , nem uma versão melhor, é incomparável,

That was back when a movie was actually enjoyable to act in, no buddy was striving for perfection, just something real, where you could tell the actor's were enjoying there rolls, they truly were having fun... I always loved 80's and 90's movie's...

@@bigreddes2000 you’re a moron they still do that today

racoon579

agree 100%

racoon579 2

Yep in1984 was totally awsome because they make you fell like dance yourself XD Bisides they really put feelings when acting and where having fun the 2011 was like why i am doing this? Oh yea they payme for it XD

I take it from one who was alive in the 80s...it was fun! I remember great music and a lot of innocent fun.

Same here. And I wasn’t even born yet. (Referring to the 1984 original Footloose) I remember seeing the 2011 remake. I still have the poster. I thought it was really good. But nothing can come close to the original.

Agree with you, 1984 is fun, 2011 is profesional

Although, if everyone in the town was out of practice since rock became illegal then the 1984 version is more reliable

The real souls of this movie is fun and dance. For me the 2011 lacked the fun part.

The 80's version just felt more real because it wasn't full of professional dancers. Yes the 2011 version looks better for obvious reasons but it feels overly produced.

That break dancer in the original.......NO ONE BEATS THAT...

Except for that one dude. Like how do you do that with your body?!

The 2011 one felt so choreographed. Obviously it’s a movie and it has to be somewhat choreographed and planned but the new one just felt like I was watching a bunch of dancers do a professional performance while the original felt like they were dancing for themselves and just having fun, even if some of them weren’t very good at it. That was kinda the whole point

It was the modern era of course people would be better dancers in 2011

Except for the pop and lock guy at 2:23, everyone in the original *might* be on the upper end of small town teenage dancers. In the remake they are flipping through the air like ninjas.
