This was discussed freakin last decade and nothing became of it. I am just curious how you substain that level of CAMP in the world today? It would seem hard to do without going a bit overboard on the sex.

Fuck 'The Rocky Horror Show'. Fuck it in its stupid ass.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! by deadboy1313	Jul 24th, 2008 01:18:17 AM
Enough with the remakes. Lightning will not strike twice for RHPS. The original is magic that cannot be duplicated. Although it may be a good excuse for Tom Cruise to come out of the closet to play Frank!
No. by BiggusDickus	Jul 24th, 2008 01:18:32 AM

No one could be a worse choice than the anti music MTV by IndustryKiller!	Jul 24th, 2008 01:28:43 AM
There is no excuse to watch that fucking abhorable channel, even if you're a teenager. it destroys every sector of pop culture it decides to lay it's icy fingers on and when it does get around to playing music its just the most godawful crap any imbecile would ever choose to expose their ears to. no doubt they'll decide to fill the cast with up and coming talentless hacks and vapid pop stars who can't write music or dress themselves without a stylist. This is a fucking crime.

Because naive '50s sensibilities colliding with the kinky, sexual exploration of the '70s is something the kids really relate to now.
14 year old girls watch mtv by juice willis	Jul 24th, 2008 01:35:50 AM

For the love of God Stop the remake madness by Xiphos_2	Jul 24th, 2008 01:37:15 AM
There aren't any new and orginal scripts floating around Hollyweird? So you have to remake everything that has come out already. Assholes MTV, really MTV? I thought they got out of the music business in the 90's.

Please for the love of super sexy Jebus. Abandon this future abortion now before it develops a face.. You will not capture lightning in a bottle twice with the same material. You wanna do a special edition of the original and double dip that way...fine.. Maybe bring in Bay to do some wicked cool explosion shit when the castle lifts off... I can get behind that but please don't rape my sexlife... see I'd say Childhood here but the original Rocky Horror is responsible for every bit of kinky crazy sex that I've ever had. and it's been a great ride. Ya'll can stay in your own side of the sandbox but stay the fuck out of mine.... Cheers

Actually, this is a revival that makes complete sense by palimpsest	Jul 24th, 2008 04:52:05 AM
There's no difference to MTV doing this than to the myriad stage revivals that have toured for the past 30 years. If they go for a filmed version of the stage musical, I can't see a problem, that is. If they go for a shot-for-shot remake of the somewhat wobbly movie, then that would be stupid. Oh, and Guy Pearce for Frank N Furter...

This idea by tomdolan04	Jul 24th, 2008 06:09:13 AM
is perhaps the most soul-less, creatively fucked up, alien idea I've EVER heard. I'm no Rocky hardcore fan either so I don't know why this news has hit me so hard. Over the last few years we've seen everything looted. Jesus we're on course for 'The Day The Earth Stood Still' shortly and I never thought THAT day would come. But no. RHPS being remade tops them all. For all it's sexual decadence, murder, incest and transgenderism it has a '70's innocence that - in its resurrection - is being raped harder than that scene in Irreversible.

I'm not even going to list the reasons why this is a stupid idea by Gabba-UK	Jul 24th, 2008 06:29:05 AM

What are the odds that Janet is played by Rihanna and Brad is some Maroon 5-ish douche bag? MTV ruins everything they touch Marilyn Manson must be Frankenfurter - it would be brilliantly genius. On a side note, I would willing play the man with no fucking neck.
This could work IF by chrth	Jul 24th, 2008 07:19:07 AM
Neil Patrick Harris as Brad, Felicia Day as Janet, Nathan Fillion as Eddie. Reunite the Dr. Horrible cast on this.
Awwww man.... by sundancekeed	Jul 24th, 2008 07:25:10 AM
Years ago, I heard the soundtrack long before I actually saw the movie. I thought some of the songs worked in a campy sort of way and in fact, a couple of them (Sci-Fi Double Feature, Sweet Transvestite) were pretty strong stand alone tunes. Then I saw the film, thought that Curry was good but the movie was basically awful. But I can't imagine anyone but Curry putting those lyrics across. Marilyn Manson? Gimme a break. He was, is and ever shall be nothing more than an Alice Cooper poser to me. I'd actually rather see Alice take a crack at it than Manson if anyone has to. As for the rest of the cast, who cares? I'm too old for stoned midnight movies and that was the only way that RHPS should be viewed to begin with. Is there no one left in Hollywood who can come up with an original thought?
They should have done this 8 years ago.. by rev_skarekroe	Jul 24th, 2008 07:30:37 AM
...so they could have had Jessica Simpson and Nick Lahey play the leads.
Leave it alone by Samuel Fulmer	Jul 24th, 2008 07:43:30 AM

Oh, come on... by cifra	Jul 24th, 2008 07:59:34 AM
Give this to Quentin Tarantino, probably the one who would best understand why the original works so well... Javier Bardem for Frank N Furter, Brandon Routh for Brad, Lindsay Lohan for Janet and we are in the right direction...

There Will Be Garbage by Crow3711	Jul 24th, 2008 08:50:22 AM
This will not work. It will be completely awful. Zac Efron will probably be in it. This is 100 times worse than any other remake I have read on this site. Movies like this work because of when they were released, the cast, and nostalgia. This will be a fuck-up of monumental proportions.
I HAVE DREADED THIS DAY by Mullah Omar	Jul 24th, 2008 08:51:22 AM
Not because I am a rabid fan of the original, but because this is possibly the least essential remake of all time. Even people who hate the original would probably agree that you cannot duplicate the circumstances that led people to embrace it. This remake will fail and be forgotten within months. And the idea of MTV remaking this? Insult to injury.
Dr. Horrible in Rocky Horror by chrth	Jul 24th, 2008 08:51:35 AM
Since NPH has played the emcee in Cabaret, he could definitely pull off Frank, so cast him there instead of Brad. How about Peter from Heroes as Brad?

You can't do Remo Williams in 2008, the Korean stuff is really kind of racist. I don't think a studio would have the balls to do that in a film these days.
Ugh. by smallerdemon	Jul 24th, 2008 09:42:13 AM
The only remake they could do that would interest me is to recast with all the gender roles reversed and make Rocky a sexy butch bisexual and Brad the one that gets the sexual awakening. Otherwise... what's the point MTV? I mean, it's not like you aren't the biggest whore on through the cable wires already, but you have to do something like THIS to get attention now? You'll get higher ratings if you let Liam Lynch make another show for you and rebroadcast all of Sifl & Olly before it.

diamond dead (?) by duanejones	Jul 24th, 2008 09:43:29 AM
yeah. re-makes. fuck 'em. however, does anyone know anything concerning the status -- more likely, lack thereof -- of the proposed _diamond dead_ collaboration between with (the original) _rocky horror_ author and a ceratin mr. romero, who has some experience framing shots with lurching corpses? it's probably deader than the concept of smart zombies, but this project actually sounded like fun. asia argento was attached to it, which is, you may sure, far more than i can say about myself...
MTV films, huh... Oh shit!... by Kid Z	Jul 24th, 2008 10:02:23 AM
...Carson Daly as Brad, Miley Cyrus as Janet, Lindsey Lohan as Magenta, Flo Rida as Eddie, Rihanna as Columbia, That guy from Disturbed as Riff Raff, The Jonas Brothers as assorted Transylvanians, Chris Brown as Rocky... and of course Gerald Way from My Chemical Romance as Dr. Frank N. Furter... all cleaned up for a PG-13 rating... UGH! I'm outraged already. The youth of today are a buncha gaywads!
Who the fuck cares? by Motoko Kusanagi	Jul 24th, 2008 11:23:00 AM

oh, ok, I can't even type that with straight face. . this worst idea since the last really really crappy idea out of hollywood.. which was likely a millisecond before this. Of course, I DO want to see "BRIDE OF DR. HORRIBLE " on the big screen. the imaginary sequel

As a weekly viewer of RHPS... by AtaxianTheMagnificent	Jul 24th, 2008 11:39:11 AM
I believe this is a catastrophically stupid idea. There are far to many nuances within the film that there is no way they would even remotely be able to compare to the original. But what difference does that make? They aren't making this for the weekly Rocky fan, oh no. MTV will be attempting to appeal to the lowest common denominator, i.e those Juno-loving, Katy Perry and Dashboard Confessional lovehards who haven't even seen the original and/or wouldn't dare be caught watching something so "old". (See also: the gothic pricks who ruin a good Rocky viewing by refusing to take part in the callbacks and underwear run. They don't last very long though, haha.) Despite the fact that the movie contains cannibalistic time traveling aliens who promote "cheap gay sex" and rape its always been able to maintain a strange sense of innocence and charm. That will not be present in this wallet-centered rehash. I attend Rocky on a weekly basis for the company, the laughs and the schoolgirls. ;) No matter what showing you attend, anywhere in the world, Rocky audiences have never ceased to amaze me with their lack of insecurity and their willingness to teach a "virgin" the tricks of the show; and it is a family that I am proud to be a part of. A tradition that I will continue to pass on to anyone who cares to join me and this will become a stain on that tradition. Just as Indiana Jones still and always will be a trilogy...there will never be a proper RHPS remake; only attempts at ruining a classic. Leave this one alone MTV. Don't you need to make Real World season 65?
A very emo Rocky Horror Picture Show by jimmay	Jul 24th, 2008 11:58:37 AM
You fucking know that they will cast the lead singer of My Chemical Romance as Frank N Furter, and have Panic at the Disco play at least one of the songs. Then they'll throw in some hip hop douche bag, whoever the hell is popular now in that long ago-sold-down-the-river and completely soulless genre, and a female R & B star, and they'll inevitably tone down the homo-eroticism drastically to try and appeal to as many morons as possible. My God I hate MTV. Remember that animated hip hop Kung Fu high school show they did? Yeah, that went over really well. They literally haven't done anything useful in over a solid decade.

Saw it on TV, didn't get it. My friends all said, "Oh, you HAVE TO see it in a theatre to get the full effect." Went and saw it in a theatre, got creeped out by everyone...still didn't get it. BUT, I do respect that I'm in the 4% minority that don't think it's a classic and the rest of you all do, so I would vote against any sort of remake. You're welcome.
Good luck with that, D.Vader by jimmay	Jul 24th, 2008 01:09:40 PM
I've been waiting for over a decade for them to release 'The State' on DVD. If it isn't a reality show, MTV aint gonna release it. There's simply way more money to be made by re-releasing crap in different packages with little to no effort to justify actually securing licenses and remastering transfers.

She looks like an alien race created her from their memories of what they thought a human looked like (a la "The Cage"). I wouldn't fuck her with a stolen dick. I wouldn't fuck her with one of YOUR dicks.

I thought he was remaking this. Oh, wait, that's something else?
Nothing beats Fred Ward clambering around Lady Liberty by palimpsest	Jul 24th, 2008 04:47:20 PM
in all her scaffolded glory. except maybe, just maybe, Rip Torn delivering the best shotgun - in - the - face in the movies in EXTREME PREJUDICE.
Wow, looking back, the Chroregraphy Really Sucks! by cookylamoo	Jul 24th, 2008 04:48:12 PM
It really IS just a jump to the left, a jump to the right, and a pelvic thrust.
Wow! What a GREAT idea. by Larry of Arabia	Jul 24th, 2008 05:12:37 PM
If by great you mean terrible.
If they're really intent on this by Kurutteru Yatsu	Jul 24th, 2008 05:41:01 PM
And I pray they're not, but if they are, all I can say is Ana Matronic from Scissor Sisters as Magenta. She would fucking run that shit.
Why not by Series7	Jul 24th, 2008 05:56:04 PM
Remake Shock Treatment, you'd have to try REALLY HARD to make that movie worse.

This is appropriate by OptimusCrime	Jul 24th, 2008 06:20:55 PM
MTV is obsessed with glamorizing homosexuality and marketing it to high school students, so this fits in perfectly with that agenda.

didnt think was possible, but they scraped right threw the bottom
Like I've said before, bacci40 and ricarleite... by Anna Valerious	Jul 24th, 2008 07:01:50 PM
POTP is being remade. I hope he intentionally looks like an anime character this time around...because I don't think that anyone dressed like a member of "Battle of the Planets" would be unnoticed today. I still say, put Noel Fielding (Who is for the moment known as that guy who hangs around Russell Brand at times) as the shy guy turned hot deformed visual kei lead with his comedy partner Julian Barratt as a Simon Cowell-inspired Swann, Kristen Bell as the innocent Gothic/Sweet Lolita Phoenix, Jonathan Rhys-Meyers as Eagle (The Raoul character the story needs), and supreme divo Robbie Williams as Derrick Mont Blanc (A more modern version of Beef, only it'd pretty much be Robbie playing himself. :) ) And have Edgar Wright direct that bitch!!!!
MTV isn't trying promote homosexuality, Optimus by Gozu	Jul 24th, 2008 09:52:47 PM
Bravo, maybe, although they're just working to bring homosexuals into the mainstream. MTV tends to stick to the old standbys of sensationalizing underage drinking and premarital sex. Bottom line: you might be retarded.
Worst news ever by oducerproducer	Jul 24th, 2008 10:55:23 PM
Possibly my favorite film of all time, fuck MTV.

oh man. by MS ADAMANTIA CLAUS	Jul 25th, 2008 08:34:51 AM
Well, I've got MY hand on MY hip, in concern. This cant help ANYONE. ^deep sigh^ Hopefully the bleeding from my ears from the "MamaMia" commercial Abba music will have healed by then. Because the whole PRECIOUSLY CAMPY thing has just about run its course and my hand's starting to tighten involuntarily into a fist everytime another one of these retro fuckahs rolls out. For the record, this is one woman who IS NOT in touch with her inner gay man - except the liking men thing. And my inner fabulousity doesnt resemble any of the spidermonkeyish Sex in the WhattheHellKindaBizarroNewYork CityAreTHESE4BiddiesGettingSex In? Luuuuuuuuv men. Hmmm. But I digress. Make it stop. Please. There's GOTTA be other stories out there to make. Makes my ass ache just to think about it.
oh man II by MS ADAMANTIA CLAUS	Jul 25th, 2008 08:46:00 AM
Yep. I thought about it, and... I'm throwing the bullshit flag on the play. Yeah. I call bullshit. On the studios. I call bullshit. I just read that John Waters' is gonna do a SEQUEL to that HAIRSHIT crap. The end of world comes on Dec 24th 2012, and you studios fucks waste time greenlighting camp twatslime like this? I drink your milkshake and bulimia right back up. Maybe they need to scoop up some holy water in water tanker plane and ever so lightly - mist Hollywood. Fucking ghouls with Dr Frankenstein issues - resurrecting old cut dead shit. Come to think of it, all of Hollywood is here in my burg San Diego - fly it on down, we could use the water.

That's actually Dec. 21, 2012. Plan accordingly.
