Yep. Remaking Rocky Horror. Oh, that won't go at all poorly.

Look, Rocky is a crappy movie. What saves it is self-aware crappiness and the whole bruhaha surrounding it in midnight showings. This is going to suck harder than Uncle BadTouch at a day care.

Rocky Horror.....  Ah the memories....

Fishnet stockings....

Hotdogs....

Let's do the Time Bomb AGAIN!!!

I don't know if today's generation can truly appreciate a packed movie theatre full of teenagers and 20 somethings dressed all out in costume, high as kites, throwing hotdogs.... :cry:

The good old days....  I swear if they get Miley Cyrus to play Janet I will have to kill someone.....

Hollywood has officially run out of ideas.  This is why I don't go to movies anymore.

I will NOT go see this. It's a fucking mockery of the original.  :argh!:

Give me Tim Curry in platforms or give me death!

Honestly, who's going to play Frank? Knowing today's "politically correctness", they'll make him a woman or something. And is Richard O'Brien behind this at all? Considering he uh...wrote and starred in the original?

Why? I mean really - why? What's the point of remaking this? 99% of the enjoyment of Rocky Horror is the over-the-top camp, done with a nod and a wink at every turn, in every performance, from Tim Curry to Meatloaf to Richard O'Brien and the rest of the cast. Does anyone remember Shock Treatment? If so, my apologies. That was an attempt - by O'Brien himself - to recapture the Rocky Horror magic. It was bad. BAAAAAAD.

This will be worse.

On the other hand, it would allow the audience to call Miley a slut...

I originally read this as "Lovecraft at a day care" and thought: how awesome would it be to see Cthulhu eat toddlers alive and utterly destroy one of those pools with all the plastic balls in it?

And then I read it again and was sad.
