I did not know that the movie 'Road House' was being remade.
I still don't know why anyone would want to. As a fun movie to watch for being so absurd, it really doesn't need a do-over.

Because Hollywood can't resist a snatch at low hanging fruit, and that's all remakes and reboots are.

In the fourth season of The Wild Wild West, Robert Conrad jumped from a staircase landing to a chandelier. He lost his grip on the chandelier and fell 15 feet onto a concrete floor, landing on his head. The fall gave him a high temporal concussion and a six-inch skull fracture.
Creepily, the accident was kept in the episode when it aired.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

In the 1904 Olympics (St. Louis), American gymnast George Eyser won six medals - three gold, two silver, one bronze - despite having a wooden leg.
