Hollywood gossip websites took a quick look back at the 1987 film which features a then-unknown Jennifer Grey who played Baby, a rich teenager vacationing in the Catskills who falls into first love with the late Patrick Swayze‘s Johnny Castle dance instructor character. And the two dance across the screen, sweaty torso upon sweaty torso, conquering disapproving parents, jealous resort workers, and an audience who cheered every time Baby mastered a difficult move via the skin-to-skin guidance of a drool-worthy Swayze.

A lot of fans, who’ve mourned how the good ones are always taken away early, are vehemently protesting the remake…

“Please do not remake this movie!”

One said, and

“There is no one that could replace Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey and I mean no one.”

went another.

“There will never be another ‘Dirty Dancing’ as good as the original. I think it will do a great dis-service to Patrick Swayze by remaking this film. You can’t improve on perfection.”

But guess who wholeheartedly approves of the movie, perhaps because it’ll allow her to revisit her first 15 minutes of fame before she had that rhinoplasty that ruined her career:

“I love @Kennyortega and trust that he will do something special #DirtyDancingRemake.”

Jennifer Grey tweeted.

What say you “Dirty Dancing” fans…are you ready to rumble?

The original film’s choreographer, Kenny Ortega has been tapped to direct the film’s remake…

“The opportunity to direct Dirty Dancing is like returning home for me,”

Ortega, who’s also directed all the “High School Musical” films as well as Michael Jackson‘s “This Is It” said.

Still, it’s going to be a challenge finding a cast who’ll live up to the standards set by Patrick Swayze, who played a resort dance instructor and Jennifer Grey, who essayed the role of a wealthy teenager, both of whom fall in love in the original movie, which is set in the 1960′s.

“Patrick Swayze set the bar for men dancing in the movies as Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire did before him.”

Ortega says.

This movie looks like its going to be a big one. Who do you bet will fill Swayze‘s and Grey‘s dancing shoes?

We so guessed it that Jennifer and Derek will be the winners of the season. They were absolutely the best, weren’t they? I have to say the two other pairs Kyle Massey & Lacey Schwimmer; Bristol Palin & Mark Ballas were amazing as well.

TMZ has learnt that “Dancing with the Stars” took security to extreme level for the big finale tonight; they’ve amped up personnel, given Bristol Palin her own bodyguard, and are even using bomb-sniffing dogs.

Sources tell TMZ, in addition to Bristol’s personal security, there will be 2 bomb-sniffing K-9 units and 12 undercover guards … some LAPD, some private security … all armed.

TMZ was also told it’s the first time they’ve had this much firepower on set. It makes perfect sense considering Bristol and Mark Ballas have received several death threats!

Who was your pick?
