It seems today’s trends are taking an uncontrollable plunge back into the 80s. 80s clothing trends are back on racks in stores across the country, like H&M and American Apparel to name a few. But this isn’t the only place it’s appearing.
It’s coming back to the big screen too!
1984’s Footloose will be returning to theatre’s but as a remake this coming October. And there are a lot of mixed feelings about this. There have been comments disagreeing with the remake and others saying it’s great timing.
In my opinion, I love the 80s and I think they should be kept as is. However, if you want the younger generations to get a feel for our past times and favorable moments, remakes are essential. After watching the trailer I felt the same inspiration and amazement I felt when I first watched Footloose years ago.
Society needs to remember the good times and this may be the thing that brings a family feel back to the homes of everyone.
