Time Warp

Did you see this?

They're remaking Rocky Horror Show. I'm not sure why though.

NOoooooooooooooooooo!

Oh christ.

Actually, is the new one also involving Richard O Brien? I can't tell from that paragraph if that's what they meant.

He's co-producing it, but any other involvement has not been announced. And probably unlilkely, IMO.

Other than raking in the royalties, obviously.

Oh poo. :(

It'll probably be all High School Musical-ed up.

First they ruin Hairspray, now this!

I need a lie down....

O Brien is going to get a LOT of hate mail for this!

Oh the drama...

He may need the money. I think that's why Waters allowed them to remake Hairspray.

Still.... WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

They can leave Cry Baby and Hair alone!

They can't remake it! For f**ks sake. Why can't they leave classic movies alone!!!!

'Let's do the time warp again'? What do you mean again! I didn't particularly want to do it the first time. Now f**k right off! Isn't there enough suffering in the world without a bleedin' Rocky Horror remake?!

What on earth can they do differently though?

Make it rubbish!

Put Russell Brand in it maybe?

Tim Curry is the ultimate Frank N Furter so whoever plays him will have a lot to live up to.

Because Hollywood - and the music industry, for that matter - are devoid of original ideas. Everything is a sequel, prequel, or remake.

Down with modern populist media! Downloading is the way forward, my friends. Show them how shit they are. :)
