argh. the fu*king rocky horror picture show is my least fav movie ever. period. that is the stupidest, most idiotic film of all time. i'd rather sit through an uwe boll marathon than watch that piece of garbage one time through. i saw rocky horror about 20 years ago at the skywalk in cincinnati. i think i still have the mental scars.

Normally I would be against this kind of thing but the stage version of The Rocky Horror Show has more line-up changes than a football team. It could be kinda fun but this quote bothers me. Two-hour remake will use the original screenplay by Jim Sharman and Richard O'Brien but may also include music not featured in the original. New songs? Erm, no. Why would anyone use the story but change the songs that made the musical such a success in the first place? What next? Grease? with new songs about Ferrari's and Lambo's? Don't think so... ...and they will never find a better Frank-N-Furter than Tim Curry. NEVER!

Wow, really? I loved it. Hear that Neil? It's without a doubt my favourite musical ever. I don't mind a remake. I'm not forced to watching it, after all. And in reality, it's not really a remake, it's just another adaption of it for the screen.

It's without a doubt my favourite musical ever. I have to agree with this comment 100%. Not only is the story a great homage to weirded out 50's sci-fi classics but the songs are absolutely wonderful. It's possible that I might know the musical word for word... So who's the new Furter? Marilyn Manson?

Well, it can't be any worse than Shock Treatment. A remake I can understand, even if it is a bit unnecessary, but that sequel was just terrible!

This just goes to show you their remake anything,no matter how bad the original is.

[MinionZombie]

Waaaaaggghhhh! Leave it alone Hollywood, just leave it be. Guaranteed, the remake WON'T be as good as the original, or anywhere near as good. I've only seen it once, but I thought it was very good. In fact, I got my mum the DVD for mother's day - she's a big fan of it, saw it in South Africa before (and after) the authorities banned it (they eventually unbanned it). Stop the remakes! Won't somebody please think of the children!

LEAVE IT ALONE! *ahem* its my SECOND favorite musical, to south park the movie. but still bitchin' and no one else can ever outdo what the creepy mother ****er tim curry does with a role.

[MinionZombie]

Tim Curry terrifies the poopy out of me in that movie.

Tim Curry terrifies the poopy out of me in that movie. Imagine being trapped in an elevator with the f**ker. I think it's the overbearing horsey grin that makes him such a scary character.

argh. the fu*king rocky horror picture show is my least fav movie ever. period. that is the stupidest, most idiotic film of all time. I agree. Although there's always competition for worst of all-time, this movie is definitely a lot like hitting your dick with a hammer. So it should be obvious that I will not be seeing the remake.
