Pointbreak is up there in my all time surf movie list...not because it's an all time classic, but because it's a bit cheesy, heaps of fun and is watchable again and again. So I listened intently when I heard theres going to be a sequel! It is going to be filmed but there are a lot of rumours flying around about the plot....
"The original 1991 movie starred Keanu Reeves, Patrick Swayze, and Gary Busey. No word on whether any of them might be involved in the sequel yet, but Swayze’s health problems make him extremely unlikely, and Gary Busey has apparently gone loco. That leaves Keanu, who hasn’t really done much recently so Point Break 2 might not actually be a bad move for him.
The sequel is written by the same guy who wrote the first one, W. Peter Iliff. The word is that the plot of the sequel will involve a Navy Solider recruited to infiltrate a gang of criminals in Southeat Asia. The new movie is about a military specialist / surfing star who takes off for the waves on the coast of Bali after being disqualified from the pro-tour. There he’s recruited by a security organization trying to hunt down a bunch of surfing outlaws. The gang he’s after is called “The Bush Administration”.
It all sounds like typical Hollywood trash to me....I can't wait!
