You ever been sitting at home and wonder to yourself; I wonder if it’s possible to combine the horrible esthetic and bigotry of the 80’s with really shitty dance? Nope, and neither should anyone else. Enter stage left, Ren, who moves to the small town of Bomont with his ma to live with his uncle and aunt because shit must have been horrible in Chicago. Ren is a hip city kid who likes to dance but dancing is banned in Bomont so Ren finds himself on a mission to change the minds of the town and bang the Reverend's daughter. Will the Reverend see the error of his ways? Will the kids dance? Will Ren get a haircut? Are you still reading this? Starring Kevin Bacon, John Lithgow, Dianne Wiest, and Lori Singer, Footloose laid a cultural footprint and became a classic. But, does it hold up? Listen in as Jon, Colin, and Brent discuss homoerotic subtext and not sticking your dick in crazy as we try to decide if this is more footloose or footnoose.
