Whoa!

"Patriot Games" scripter Peter Iliff is to write and direct "Point Break 2," a 20 years later sequel to the surfing crime thriller that he co-wrote in 1987 and was a hit for Largo Entertainment in 1991 reports Variety.

The $20 million-$30 million new film will be set in Southeast Asia and uncover the fate of the surfers' leader Bodhi who was supposedly killed by a giant wave.

Action follows a surfer-turned-SEAL on the trail of a criminal gang. Locations being scouted include Indonesia and Singapore, and production schedule sees lensing starting by the end of current year with delivery for late 2008.

No Reeves no Swayze no deal for me.....hey maybe they can cast Don Swayze instead.

Though I did moderately enjoy Road House 2 minus Swayze so who knows

I think I would actually see it if Reeves and Swayze were in. Since they're not, no.

Wait. Bohdi becomes a SEAL?
I enjoyed the first but I don't see how a good sequel could ever be made.

Can you say directly to DVD release 3 times?

Hahahah. I would actually watch if Reeves was on it. That's rather sad to admit.

Count me as another that would watch if it was the further adventures of Johnny Utah.

Reviewers often talk about movies being "the sequel no one wanted." This is more like "the sequel no one will admit to wanting."

I will be glued to the thread, waiting for more details. I love the original more than ice cream.

No Busey=no interest.

No Johnny Utah? No Bodhi returning from the dead? No sale.

The first thing he does upon returning, in classic Gary Busey form, is break into a completely extemperaneous monologue about the time he ate shrooms and went searching for the Yeti.

Apparently Dennis Rodman is one of the surfers

I'm with everyone else. No Swayze or Reeves = No sale.

Ditto.

We can thank Hot Fuzz for this.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Point Break is one of the asskickingest movies I've ever seen. A sequel is unneeded. And a sequel without either lead is bordering on sacrilege.

seconded.

Im with this guy! Point Break is my 2nd all time fav movie! I think it ended perfectly, furthuring the story more without Utah or Bohdi is just....well its just.....not cool...

"i Am An Fbi Agent!!"

Yeah man....isn't it wild

Did Anthony Kiedis die in the original? It's been a while? Seems like Kiedis just blew his toes off...surely he can still hang 5 and surf.

It should center around Utah's cousin, Jimmy Idaho.

Wow. If they got the leads back they could have Constantine on the trail of a precocious ghost, combining three (OKtwo) previous hits in a demographic quilt so diverse that every person on the planet will go see it. And buy the DVD.

It's official, the well in Hollywood is now officially dry. I thought this thread had to be a joke. Of course Swayze is available. Why wouldn't he be? And not sure why Reeves wouldn't do it. The original was very entertaining. But it's too late for a sequel IMO.
