Rocky Horror Picture Show to be remade?
Ballard:
The Rocky Horror Picture Show was adapted from the stage version- the Rocky Horror Show.
This new film would be remade from the classic screen version.
Jackie, I'm part of a Rocky Horror shadowcast in New York and I can attest to the fact that the focus of the whole thing lies in the film, not the performance. The callbacks and the stage performance are mostly for laughs and to enhance the experience.
What everyone so far has failed to point out is that this is being produced by MTV. Fucking MTV. It's blasphemous and we're just crossing our fingers that they don't cast Zac Efron as Rocky.
For the record Phil, we perform twice a week all year and not just on Halloween.
RobbieOC:
I guess I don't understand the semantics here. Isn't every remake pretty much an adaptation? I mean, they're not using the same actors or anything so... what's so different about this except that it's already been made into a movie before? I mean, there's like fifty adaptations of Dracula, are they all remakes? I'm honestly just trying to understand.
Boro_Bandito:
Well yeah the NEW YORK one would do it all year round, I'm from Lubbock, Texas, Gene. My home town tried to ban the movie and the stage performances on more than one occasion. :cry:
Ballard:
All the more reason why you should get your ass down here more often.
Come see our humble performance sometime, while you're still off from school.

There is a troupe in Appleton, WI that is doing Rocky Horror in (I believe) September. They're on MySpace. I want to go, but I don't think I can take the time off of work :( I shall see though, because it would be totally friggin' awesome!
As per the actual purpose of the thread: remaking RHPS is sick and wrong, and I wholeheartedly am against it.
