  • I love this movie so much better than the new one...but I love all the 80s movies better than the stupid remakes...I think the new Karate Kid was the worst (seriously, kung fu in the KARATE KID) but anyway...this one is golden to me-even if I am only 14

  • i di not know chris had died terrible sorry to g=hear about it does anyone know what happened to him?

  • @fierybuffy he had a heart attack at a young age.

  • peole please share these songs on your facebook some people just don't remember the titles and artists!!!!!

  • I wish Kevin Bacon had taught ME to dance. On a tractor.

  • Lovely... The original version It's always better!

  • I wish i can learn how to dance as quick as a 3 min dance montage.

  • I thought the new movie was horrible in comparison to the original. Nothing compares to the 80's. That was a decade we'll never see anything like again. This was my favorite scene in the movie. Great song and Chris Penn was an underated actor.

  • Comment removed

  • favourite scene!!

  • both versions are really well done. i'm a huge fan of both of them...HOWEVER!

    you can't beat the classics. '80's RULE!!

  • I refused to watch the new one..I was an 80's kid so nobody can beat kevin in this movie..

  • @christinacroberts the new one isn't as good. i grew up in the 90's - 00's and i also think the original is better!

  • love this always...

  • Back when men had feelings and girls had decency!!! Can I get an AMEN!!?

  • looks like a gay version of dirty dancing lol RIP Chris Penn! Orginal and best!

  • reminds me of my childhood =) I miss the 80's... I was born in 82 so most of it was a blurr but I do remember the music!

  • as someone who has seen both versions of the film. I liked them both but however I prefer the original. The new one had too many differences to be anything close to the original.

  • i would rather have my kids watch this version then the newwer slutty version

  • lolz this is my baton song

  • Great Song

  • I really miss Chris. He was a great actor, singer (check out The Funeral), he learned how to dance for this movie, and he was great in karate! Prob the most underrated actor to date. I bet that's why he got depressed and started drinking. Chris, we all miss you. RIP nice guy Eddie

  • <3 fave scene in the film apart from the fight, sorry, dance, at the end

    indeed

  • sang this in womans chior!!!

  • maybe its just me and i'm getting old, but i still think films and music in the 80's were better.

  • @greeKDEATH1 Believe me you... they are. I compare the movies and music from my generation, to the movies and music from your generation, and I find that yours is definitely better.

  • @greeKDEATH1 No, I'm 19 years old and I think the movies, tv shows, music, and style in general from the 80s and 90s are the best.

  • @jaztazgirl

    Maybe I should have looked at your comment before posting my response to greeKDEATH1 haha

  • @greeKDEATH1

    I'm only 19 and I think the music in the 80's and before are the best

  • Great Video

  • The original is great, but does that mean it can not give birth to an amazing remake? Go watch Evil Dead, then Evil Dead 2 and tell me which is better.

    I have not yet seen the new Footloose, but I do want to give it a shot. Looks like it pays tribute to the original.

  • @torishaye222 i don't agree,because the new one has the same story but is addapted to our time.Think that are kids,teenagers that never heard of the 1984 one and watching the 2012 one maybe they will want to see the other one:d

  • @TheGlee1980 lol. that was an embarrassingly terrible comeback. Don't you think its just a LITTLE bit spastic to be fighting on a youtube video.. through youtube comments... if its your business, don't post it online. How old are you anyway, 8?

  • @TheGlee1980 YA,me too..i was just saying my opinion,this doesn't mean that i'm rude:)...and about your brother,you say that he is happy...did you ask him or my brother?:)))...so don't say somenthing you dont' know nothing about..

  • @torishaye222 hello....new day and age

  • I love Footloose so much <3

    We did it as our musical at my school this year. It was amazing.

  • @HereComesHannah1 I bet the musical was AMAZING! Even if I didn't SEE it I know it you did GREAT! :)))

  • @TheGlee1980 It really was amazing! Our school is known for our great theatre program. It was so much. I was the actor assistant stage manager, so I was in charge of the actors. It was soo much fun. (: I love Footloose so much.

  • Seven people are not gay for Kevin Bacon.

  • I still think Ren (Kevin) is a hottie...I also don't think the original could be improved, love it just the way it is...RIP Chris Penn

  • HAHA i thought i was the only person left that knew who kevin bacon was and could use a computer without calling in someones grand kids. lol

  • STOP TALKING ABOUT THE REMAKE! PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT'S ON SCREEN IN FRONT OF YOU. So, let's start one of those lengthy you-tube comment conversations. Did Kevin do the whole warehouse dance?

    Either way, Kevin Makes my heart BURN! Where are the guys like this? Sweet, romantic, great dancers? Anyone know?

    The 80's was the best. The music, the dance, the way of speaking ("Jump back").

    If you ask me, much better than our generation of sex adicts and multi-taskers. It was so simple back then...

  • @SkellaWolf Omg finally someone who gets what I try 2 SAY! Thank you sooo MUCH! :)))

  • Ahhh favorite movie! BS that they remade it. If you're gonna remake a movie make it one that sucked and make it better.

  • i haven't seen the new one, and i don't want to. i really wish they would Stop taking these old classic movies remaking them, and turning them into crap!!! come on hollywood are you really running out of ideas?!?

  • Its obviously an opinion whether you like the new one or not. I personally haven't seen it so can't judge, I'm not exactly a fan of remakes but also I am an actress and from that point of view it's not the actor fault if a remake wasn't particularly good, they are just doing their job and their job is based on everybody's personnel opinion. Same go's for directors etc, They are just doing their job so cut them some slack. I do agree that nothing compares to an original tho.

  • Chris was actually a more accomplished dancer than Kevin-shows how good an actor both guys were in this movie. The soundtrack was phenomenal.

  • you guys are retarded

    the remake totally sucked this scene especially.

    nothing against country music, but it just don't mix with dance.

  • I watched the new Footloose, and have to say that's my new favriote movie, can't wait for it to come out on dvd;D

  • I am sure the new Footloose was good, and it's nice that they remade it, but the original is better and the singers who did the songs too, Shalamar, Denise williams, and etc.. It was a different era,, whats funny , I've always played these songs all my life, i enjoy them, and young people, use to say what are you playing?, but now that they re did the movie and new singers singing the songs.. they feeling all cool now,., its a new generation, taking on the old.

  • Have you ever thought about the first time when you first heard a song. I was in the Navy stationed in the Philippines when this song came out. Always brings back great memories.

  • How CUTE was Chris Penn?!!! Rest in Peace brother

  • Comment removed

  • Footloose the original is the only one in my mind Kevin Bacon that is talent in acting and dancing skills :) I can not bring myself to see the remake as Im sure they've massacred it!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Love the origional so make new films and stop copying older ones!!!! You will never match up : ( Sean Penns baby brother is so dozy and cool : ) Bless : )

  • i love the original soooo much but havent seen the new one soooo....

  • kevin bacon is sexy. nuff said.

  • 1:18 -01:25 running through a field of flowers has never been cooler, exciting and well I can't say much more they are two guys running though a firled of flowers one witha stereo the other with a cowboy hat on doing tricks yeah not strange at all

  • R.I.P. Christopher Penn.

  • This was the first "PG" movie I ever saw in the cinema and ever since has had a special place in my heart. Like Flashdance & Fame this classic, charming films like this should be left alone. Some may say it was typical 80s with lacking script, but for what it (may have) lacked in script it made up for in cast, dancing prowess, and genuine show of enjoyment for what they were doing at the time. I for one will not be seeing the remake, clips are painful enough.

  • I love these 80's training montages. :)

  • i love both films but nothing beats the original.

    i did love that they kept the original costumes for the prom scene and most of the dialogue was the same.

  • A remake means a copycat from the original no matter how much they improved it. The original idea.

    Have some respect for the creator.

    Would you like it when someone copy your idea and said "my idea is better than your original idea"

    The original is the king.

  • @SadisticPork

    Look , if that were true then we would all be using the same old technology we did in 1984 . The original was great . but you have to give it to the directors and choreographer jamal sims for incorporating the original footloose dance moves with some modern hip-hop and slide . I'm not choosing one over the other , but you have to admit that they did a great job :)

  • @SadisticPork they obviously gave permission to remake it. they are obviously fine with it. dont sound so ignorant

  • @SadisticPork Yeah i would say they didn't improved it. The just added fake computer effects.

  • u all have an opinion so you shouldn't be cynical when people post what they think. I, on a personal level see the first one as better. I didn't dislike the new one, although at first i refused to see it. I felt the same way that someone feel about movies made out of books-it'll ruin it. i was wrong though. I was quite impressed in fact. Many people favor the new one because of image and how "hot" the leads are, which they are attractive-but the original has way better actual acting skill

  • 4:42 hilarious :)

  • Never get's old!

  • Julianne Hough<3<3<3 best Ariel evr!!!!

  • I watched the 2011 Footloose first, three times already in the cinemas infact, and I watched the original today, and in my opinion, the new one is much better! There are so many lines that are the exact same, but yeah I think the new one is a lot better! both my favourite movies now though! :)

  • I like the first one more, but, the second on did this song better.

  • the remake will never stand up to the originial!

  • I went and saw the remake and it was great! I didn't know if I would like it, but it is the Footloose for this generation! It had some really funny parts that made it a great movie. Thank you for the remake!

  • The original one sux. Kevin Bacon is creepy, Willard looks reaaaaally old, the preacher is a total dick, and the chick isnt hot. THe new version does everything better

  • @Nickthenoob2 I'm praying to all gods you're kidding.

  • the original issss fantastic but the one in the newer one, Ren is hotterrr

  • That new footloose movie has nothing on the original. Originality is dead F U hollywood.

  • the awkward momet when the two top comments are the exact opposite..

  • ahh a beautiful gay love <3 <3

  • Makes me think I might can dance.

  • love it

  • Chris Penn was definetely a hottie!! Fat or slim. Cheers!

  • i was born in the wrong generation.

    i LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS!<3 GREAT MOVIE:)

  • Good lord, if Kevin Bacon's pants were any tighter, I could easily mistake him for David Bowie. o.O

  • the originals will always be better then the remakes, chill out. The remake of Footloose however, was freaking ADORABLE and it was WAY better than I expected it to be. c:

  • Now this movie was the best. The remake though had a much better actress playing Ariel than the dorky, no tit chick in this movie. The new Willard in the remake really reminded me of Chris Penn Willard, probably the best part of the remake besides Dennis Quade.

    As far as the lead, BACON WAS THE KING!

  • i wish kevin bacon would teach me how to dance lol

  • Classic > Remake

  • OMG i love Chris Penn sooooo much!!! This is my favorite part of the movie, he is sooooo cute! I refuse to see the new one, no one can ever do this better than Kevin Bacon and Chris Penn! RIP Chris :(

  • @malachaisaac Come on, you gotta give the remake a chance. I don't care if you say the original's better, but at least SEE the remake before you say so.

  • Even after all that, he still dances like he has a stick stuck up his rear...

  • Amo questo film alla follia ^_^

  • best part in the freakin movie!!

  • the remake totally fucked this part up.

  • MAAAN How hot was Kevin Bacon back then!! And chris penn is dead? :( thats so sad! Rip Chris, he was a legend in this movie!!

  • u just GOTTA love those two !!

  • does anyone have the 2011 scene when Willard is getting a dance lesson bt Ren?

  • mis this one, the Police? Lol

  • Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay?

  • RIP Chris Penn

  • You cannot replace this one. Original still the best and always will be.

    Nobody can compare to the main character Kevin Bacon!!!

  • Kevin Bacon! Enough said.........

  • Didn't Chris Penn really learn to dance from scratch like Willard?

  • THIS IS BETTER!!!! IM 12 AND ALL MY FRIENDS HAVE NEVER SEEN THE ORIGINAL!!! THIS IS WAYYYYY BETTER

  • Originals are BETTER than the remakes. 'Nuff said. 

  • @CreativiDe992 Absolutely ... Original is the best ... There is not another kevin Bacon

  • @LisaW5151 or Chris Penn

  • @CreativiDe992 sometimes you just got to have movie magic...to me the old one didnt tell the story well enough..besides KENNY WORMALD IS HOT!

  • @CreativiDe992 Generally I would agree that the originals are better - but, not always. And the new Footloose is a case in point. Both these movies are excellent. Paramount stuck to the exact same script etc....and that is why it really worked for the remake.

  • @CreativiDe992 Lol, c'mon, you know that's not always true... plus, it's just such a stubborn thing to say....

  • @CreativiDe992 ALWAYS !!!

  • @CreativiDe992 no way really

  • @CreativiDe992 that depends of what's good was the original Creativide992

  • the new version was the cutest thing I've seen in a while. I loved the remake, I think they both stand tall but the remake made so many things more real, I also liked the female lead in the one SO much better. You actually root for her, as well as the dad. In the original i was like "she's not even worth it!". And the original dad was such an asshole. The new one puts so much heart into the father role.

  • @tina925 true but always one thing you gotta root the original for is and always will be....kevin bacon

  • @tina925 Kevin Bacon was the only reason to see it in the first place, for me .......I'll stick with the original ;) I still love Kevin

  • @tina925 that's what I liked about it too :D I also feel like I can relate to the new one better :)

  • @tina925 aint nothing better than the original...

  • @tina925 but does the new one have the songs in it?

  • @chinadoll886 yes it does. a lot of them are re-made or featured differently. new stuff too! =)

  • @tina925 im not arguing with u or anything as i havent seen the remake but the original is supposed to be set now and in the original you do say shes not worth it and the dad is mean too but i think that is the point in the original..maybe i dunno =P just my opinion

  • @mlsr23 watch 2 seconds of the 'new one' and you will see it's shit just like most remakes : (

  • @tina925 Why remake films? Why not watch the origional which was great? Why pay to watch a remake because they've ran out of ideas and can't be arsed to make a film by their own merit? puzzles me ; ( I've never watched remakes. if the actress is prettier does that make it a better film? Well no because it was a huge hit when it was made so don't insult it leave it alone ; )

  • @tina925 Her father was a minister so was supposed to be strict-thats the point of the film ; ) She was supposed to be a rebel-rebelling against her father. I suggest you watch the origional film again because you obviously didn't get the point-music breakd down all barriers and prejudices. Thats why it was a box office hit : ) The actors made it a hit. So nicer sweeter versions dont work princess go watch snow white.

  • @sharonmcgrath9 there's a big difference on being strict and being an asshole.

    The original dad had no heart and seemed like a robot.

    The new one fights with being strict because he loves his daughter so much.

    Both are great movies. I enjoyed both, in their own right.
