neutral · AI labelView post →It is not used well in the movie! I would say that every movie that has used it since, no matter how cliche it is, uses it better, including the Footloose remake from 2011
negative · AI labelView post →Open hatred. This feels like something out of a movie like Footloose. Surreal.
neutral · AI labelView post →You could take the girls out of Footloose and have the same movie.
negative · AI labelView post →Without saying Footloose, fav Kevin Bacon film? 🎥 For me… ‘Tremors’ (1990) 🖤

neutral · AI labelView post →Gonna tell my kids this film is Footloose.
neutral · AI labelView post →I finally watched Footloose for the first time and I must admit I thought I was getting a corny teen romance and instead I got a surprisingly sober-minded and articulate film about how grief warps our sense of joy and risk and also I would fucking die for this guy and their wonderful bromance???

neutral · AI labelView post →Born 7 January 1948 - Kenny Loggins, singer and songwriter, (one half of Loggins & Messina 1971-76). His early soundtrack contributions date back to A Star Is Born in 1976. He had the 1984 US No.1 & UK No. 6 single 'Footloose' from the film of the same name. #KennyLoggins #70srule
neutral · AI labelView post →The song and movie claim that "Everybody cut Footloose", but it was actually editor Paul Hirsch who cut Footloose. Thanks.
neutral · AI labelView post →Sad to hear that Bonnie Tyler has died aged 75. She sang Total Eclipse of the Heart, and Holding Out For A Hero, which featured in the movie Footloose.
neutral · AI labelView post →Can you have an 80’s prom without this one? Don’t think so! It’s Kenny Loggins, going ‘Footloose’! (Yep, from the movie!) #VDayParty2 - youtu.be/ltrMfT4Qz5Y?...
neutral · AI labelView post →If you think this sounds like the movie “Footloose,” you’d be right. The controversy received national attention, and songwriter/screenwriter Dean Pitchford read about it in a San Francisco newspaper. He decided the story would make a good movie musical, resulting in the 1984 film. /end
neutral · AI labelView post →Dancing is forbidden, like that town in Footloose which was a movie you are too young to know about (including the remake)
neutral · AI labelView post →I loved that movie, “Footloose”!
positive · AI labelView post →How about dancing to a song from a movie about dancing? Kenny Loggins wants ebryfur to get ‘Footloose’! #plunderween youtu.be/ltrMfT4Qz5Y?...
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm a big fan of the first Saw movie but I still prefer the original working title: Footloose
neutral · AI labelView post →Me, freya and dee are all watching Footloose for the first time…did you guys know this movie rocks
positive · AI labelView post →I told you there was chicken in Footloose during the dance scene at the end! I bought this movie just now to in order to do this.
neutral · AI labelView post →Ernest and Celestine A Trip to Gibbertia Footloose with a french bear, not as good as the first film but this is also a great feelgood cute movie that is a solid followup, good to see more of these two even if subject matter was a bit well treaded. It does what it does well
neutral · AI labelView post →Today at The Reveal: The latest entry in my '80s in 40 column looks at FOOTLOOSE (and, briefly, CHILDREN OF THE CORN), an old-fashioned movie that nonetheless attempts to make a case against turning back the clock—with dance!
neutral · AI labelView post →We are seeing the musical of Dirty Dancing tonight and I said I had never seen the movie but that I knew it was about a town where people aren’t allowed to dance. That is apparently Footloose 😂 Sometimes my extremely sheltered religious upbringing really shows 🙈
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't have a problem with the movie itself, but I fucking hate the song, Footloose, and if i see the movie then the song earworms, so i have to escape quickly.
negative · AI labelView post →Watching Footloose and forgot this track was in the movie. Again, I was never a fan of Foreigner but this track is just amazing. #foreinger #footloose #music
neutral · AI labelView post →Okay Footloose was adorable. If you haven’t seen it, please go watch it. It’s streaming for just a few more days on Amazon Prime. I thought that was such a cute movie !

Two movies with mostly original songs that I love. Going with Footloose, but could easily be Top Gun. https://youtu.be/P4narQca4Oc?si=7FyeJpTTKZcbgsn5

neutral · AI labelView post →#letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched #filmsky #letterboxd #talktoveri The first 20 mins or so of Footloose was a bit insufferable. Then it got good. Family night got me the Despicable Me stuff, but I've enjoyed them. Better Off Dead is a cult film for me, welded to my identity. Tree of Life - A+
neutral · AI labelView post →Good morning Marsha and Kitty! Thanks for another trans-Atlantic hosting. Token 1 is Let’s Hear It For The Boy from Footloose. Love the montage in the film (which the song soundtracks) where Ren teaches Willard to dance. Chris Penn is adorable! youtu.be/s7FGbhpr2pg?...

Oh and little Pete from Pete & Pete!” @shezcrafti.com selling me on this film. (Probably)
