Dirty Dancing Is Being Remade With Abigail Breslin Because Nothing Is Sacred Anymore

What IS it with people taking classic movies and deciding to do a rubbishy reboot that no one will remember, want or especially like? They did it with Footloose and Fantastic Four and now they're doing it with Dirty Dancing, arguably the most perfect romantic movie ever, with Zombieland's Abigail Breslin to star as Baby. WHY?!

Dirty Dancing, the film that made Patrick Swayze's name and had us all quote "no one puts baby in the corner" approximately 903 times during our lifetimes is being remade for television and we don't know whether to be delighted at a fresh new take on the movie, or horrified that the silver screen is taking our beloved movie and *shudders* rebooting it.

ABC studios has announced that they will be developing a three hour remake of the original movie and the plot will be more or less the same as the original. Since the remake has just been announced, there is no word yet on who will direct and, more importantly, who will play Patrick Swayze's timeless character. They're also being very enigmatic about why on earth it needs to be three hours!
