So are the eyebrows dyed….?

Long hair, shotgun, and mustache=Trifecta

Are you fucking kidding me?!

Even with a douchebag haircut he’s killing it. It’s just not fair….

It’d be sacrilege to not include a pic from Roadhouse. You think I’m crazy?

So there it is. Sam Elliot has been rocking the same mustache for decades but the unique thing about him is the fact that he’s done it with long and short hair. He’s also done it young and old. He is timeless and owes it all to the hair between his nose and upper lip. He is so badass in all his movies it makes me sick. In Roadhouse he was only the most feared, aging cooler in the country. You don’t get that role unless you have the best hair in Hollywood. He was called in for the sole purpose of kicking local hillbilly ass. Legendary.

Collider.com- Gerard Butler (Olympus Has Fallen) is reportedly in final negotiations to star in the Point Break remake. We last reported on the new version of the 1991 bank-robbing surfers film (fun fact: directed by Kathryn Bigelow) when Ericson Core (Invincible) signed on to direct. Butler will be playing Bodhi, the role originally played by Patrick Swayze.

So I’m not really sure how I feel about this news. On one hand I feel there are some movies you should never remake. The Godfather (series), Raging Bull, Shawshank Redemption, Point Break. Either the movie was made perfectly the first time, or it is just too much of a cult classic to try again, whether for good or for bad. Point Break falls to the latter. Is it the best movie ever? Maybe. If it is on TV will I stop what I’m doing and watch til the end? Every time. Those types of movies you don’t redo.
But on the other hand I really like Gerard Butler as an actor. I think he is funny, good at action, and just has that movie star quality. I can see him absolutely taking on the part of a bank robbing lunatic who loves skydiving and surfing. Even though he is much larger than Swayze I think it will work out just fine. The only real issue is who would play Utah? Have Jonah Hill get skinny again? Go for the cheaper of the Franco brothers, Dave? It has to be someone younger that won’t overshadow Butler but also will live up to the fantastic acting of Mr. Keanu “47 Ninjas” Reeves.

PS Do you think they will wear Obama and Dubya masks in this one?
Double PS Will they just ask Gary Busey to come back or can they just CGI in his last performance? You don’t fuck with the Busey
