MTV is remaking The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
The 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.
Casting decisions have yet to be finalized.

That is not something you want to fuck with.
GARBAGE

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
WTF ARE THEY THINKING?????????????????
Yup mtv needs to get lost.
this terrible news means it is going to be VERY hard to sleep tonight.
fuck mtv.
OH MY GOD! this means that i will have to listen to 13 year olds talk about how great it is, when the old one will be MUCH better…
I HATE YOU MTV! I THOUGHT YOU WOULD KNOW BETTER!
I can just imagine the shit they'll sell at hottopic now. Oh, wait? Don't they carry your clothes?
that is bull shit! blasphemous.
are u kidding me! i love this movie n watch it all the time. MTV is fucking everything up these days . i know im not old enough to know how it was in the 80s but i know now its all these bs shows!They Should Leave it Alone
Blasphemy!
Only Tim Curry can be the sweet transvestite!
* SIGH *
WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE LEAVE WELL ENOUGH ALONE!!!!!! NO ONE CAN EVER REPLACE TIM CURRY NOOOOOOOOOOO ONNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEE!!!
Bad bad bad bad bad.
noooooo! they're wasting their money! The original is great.
I won't be wasting my time or my money on this piece of crap. Replacing Tim, Meatloaf, Susan and Barry is lame. But then MTV has been lame for the past 10 years. I want my real MTV, not the crap calling itself MTV today!
wtf???! nooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!
omg is every one just gonna sit there a let them ruin a good movie!!!!!!!!!!!!lame i swear does that channel suck so much they have to bring back the past !?
Uh, bc they have no original ideas??? they suck
Why in the hell do they think they can touch such a classic????? They will only fuck it up!!
NOOOO!!!!! Stupid MTV.
I can't stop yelling NO! and am trying to hold back tears of terror and rage! WHY? This should not be allowed! Whoever owns the rights to The Rocky Horror Picture Show, if you care for the fans of this classic at all PLEASE DON'T ALLOW THIS HAPPEN! IT'S A NIGHTMARE!
How the hell can you replace Tim Curry? Answer: You can't; he's fucking irreplaceable.
WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS!?!?
Tim Curry is hands down the only person that can play the role Dr. Frank-N-Furter as perfect as he did. It's just fine the way it is!
That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
MTV is going to completely ruin this movie.
It's perfectly fine how it is, and there's no need to remake it.
Someone should start a petition against this!
OMG no way! that's so stupid. they just have to remake everything don't they? that pisses me off. i saw that as a live show when i was twelve (last year) and it was amazing, and just the thought of the remake becoming a live show aswell. how stupid.
Re: tahn –
seriously, there will be protests.
im sure TONS of people are going to LOVE this crap. with dumb ass people people in it like heidi and her shitty singing. gag me.
i loved the old one so much looking 4ward to the new
should b a blast i reckon
cant wait
This PISSES me off!!! I will NOT watch this shit.
This is probably the worst idea I have ever heard, right under eating glass.
Is there anything we can do to stop this? This really can't happen.
They are going to kill this classic…
Like the killed Wuthering Heights…
A classic such as this CANNOT..i repeat…CANNOT be remade successfully..
EVERRRRRRRRRRR!!
PEREZ!!! DO SOMETHING! EVERYONE HATES THIS! please?
this movie is already amazing. why mess with it?
Nooooooooooo! How can they mess with RHPS?
If you live in Minneapolis, TransvestiteSoup.org does a theatrical version onstage along with the movie. However, unlike MTV, It is FUCKING INCREDIBLE!!!!
Love, J.
Tim Curry OWNS that character. I can't see this working on any level.
Seriously, WHY. This is a really bad idea if it's a money grab, there are probably more people out there who will boycott it than would imagine going to see it.
BOYCOTT!!!!! The orignial "Rocky Horror Picture Show" was my temple all during high school. MTV=Heretics…….so not cool.
one more reason to hate MTV.
Oh gawd no. Please don't.
Stick to what you do best, MTV: half-baked faux reality drivel.
it doesnt matter who they cast, it will suck. The original rocky horror will ALWAYS be the best. no doubt.
Funny becuse I was going to say those lips pictures originated with Rocky Horror Picture Show! The whole opening first few minutes is just a par of lips singing!
i read on some blog that jack black might be eddie and pink as magenta.
shoot me now.
OK SERIOUSLY MTV YOU HAVE GOT TO BE JOKING YOU SUCK DONT TOUCH THIS MOVIE IF I SEE ONE LITTLE 13 YEAR OLD WALKING AROUND SINGING T-T-T-TOUCH ME THERE WILL BE BLOOD THIS IS NOT RIGHT IS NOTHING SACRED ANYMORE WHAT THE HELL
why the hell can't anyone think of their own ideas anymore??? this is madness. i'm boycotting this "movie" when it comes out. BOYCOTTING IT!
Because there's NO TALENT ANYMORE!!!
No ORIGINAL ideas anymore so they have to remake everything!
Once all the talented directors and producers die off you will see just how talentless Hollywood is.
that is so not cooL!!!! Rocky Horror Picture Show is a classic, and classics are not meant to be messed with!! it is absolutely amazing the way it is!!!!!
NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO ONE CAN EVER LIVE UP TO TIM CURRY
Re: Franc – Hell yeah, fuck mtv!
Oh my gosh, that's horrible. Tim Curry is AMAZING; no one can replace him, much less the rest of the cast. This is going to be absolutely hideous.
NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
They cant do that! They seriously need to stop themselves.
Does EVERYTHING have to be up to date? Jeez…this is so stupid. Why don't we remake The Exorcist or Rosemary's baby too? Hell, why don't we just redo every movie from the 60's, 70's, and 80's just so they can be up to date?
Fucking ridiculous.
Nooooooo!
This is not one of those films that "needs" to be updated to be in color or because the technology has improved or whatever other reasons they come up with for re-doing classics.
Who are they going to get to "replace" Tim Curry?
is there like a general MTV email adress that i can write to? so i can tell them that they are COMPLETELY RETARDED?!
This hits way to close to home. I have been parading my RHPS shiz since I was eleven and have introduced many a "virgin" at midnight showings. I also saw the play on stage in what was once a church! This is the most disgusting thing that could ever happen and I hope all involved burn in hell
I have no problem with this remake of The Rocky Horror Picture Show…BECAUSE I WON'T BE WATCHING IT!!! WTF!?! WTF!?! WTF!?! Tim Curry was the heart of this movie. It set a standard. This pisses me off more than the strikes. MTV, I HOPE YOU LOSE TONS OF MONEY ON THIS DEAL! And, I hope you lose a lot of cred in the process. I'm going to buy the Original in DVD after I post this, just because.
i think im having a a complex! and not a good one!
Re: Ally –
the exorcist was actually remade a few years ago…sorry.
Re: Shann – gimmie the 411?
NOOOOO!!!
Seriously?! In MTV's hands it will turn out worse than Fergie's face!!
Ugh. Somethings are just better left untouched..
This is like one of the final plagues, right? Death is soon near? ; ]
This truly pisses me off…Whats next Wizard of oz! If it isen't broke dont fix it…damn
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Oh please, it will just turn out stupid.
NNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just threw up in my mouth a bit.
No one can be as hot as Tim Curry was!
wtf, why does mtv have to screw up everything good.
the remake is going to suck so bad.
why mtv why?
DAMNIT, JANET!!!!
i'm sure i will be suicidal after i hear little bitches at the mall singing songs from it and wearing t shirts…
im going to have to watch this world crumble before my eyes, and there is nothing i can do about it. GOD I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR THIS: DO NO LET THEM REMAKE THIS MOVIE
all of the jokes really wont make sense to kids in this MTV GENERATION because there brains have been fried with the usless crap on that channel. i REALLY REALLY REALLY HATE MTV.
seriously. im going to take a cold bath with ice cubes to numb my pain and cry in bed…by guys…
i know it's been said, but noooooooooooooooooo!
kix, you said it.
That is a slap in the face to the original actors and anyone who calls themself a true Rocky Horror Fan!!!!!!! I had heard rumors circulating in the late 90s that they were interested in Marilyn Manson playing Dr. Frankenfurter.
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
They are going to butcher the transvestite out of rocky.
Seriously, let's petition.
OH FUCK NO! DON'T FUCK WITH A CLASSIC!
MTV GO BURN IN HELL!
FUCK NO! AHHH
HERE GOES ANOTHER REMAKE FUCKUP
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONONONONONNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
eww if MTV is remaking it, it will most likely turn out to be shitty.
I say everybody boycott it! Get petitions started. This is an outrage! DAMN is nothing sacred anymore???
They have to STOP ALREADY…for those of us old enough to have seen all the originals of everything they are remaking nowadays, we just can't understand WTF is going on? Isn't there one single original idea in Hollywood worth producing these days? And are they going to try "remake" the experience of going to see RHPS at the midnight show, dressing up as our favorite character and shouting out all the lyrics as we used to as well?
nooooooooo
i will throw my tv out the fucking window
that is bullspit
all the more reason
to boycott MTv
ya….this is a stupid decision. First off the Rocky Horror Picture Show is a love it or hate it movie so those that hate it most likely wont care to watch and those that love it who are like within the RHPS cult wont want to watch it either because mtv is messin with their god so….ya. I guess they are targeting the teens but ya i already can tell this is going to suck.
OK… I never comment on ANYTHING my dear PEREZ, BUT.. Good Grief!!!! WTF…… LEAVE IT ALONE! There's just some things you can't re-do.
OMG how can they mess with that mtv is so desperate..they ruin everything..
WTF?! MTV just has to ruin every last thing in the world to make money, don't they?
THis is horrible!
But, remember people, not all teenagers are bad. I saw RHPS when I was 12, and loved it. I am now almost 14. I am not following a trend. I am not some MTV kid who falls in love with whatever is "Hip". I just like the movie. And yes, I have done the Time Warp in the middle of a shopping mall.
= D
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
this cannot happen
WHAT??? HELL NO!! NOBODY WILL WATCH THIS! IT'S BLASPHEMY!
dear mtv, go fuck yourself.
I bet they will get those lame asses from high school musical to do it.
NOOOOOOO!!!
WHAT THE HELL!
I AM PROTESTING!!
LMAO. When I first saw that picture I thought Amy Crackhouse had cut her hair and buffed up.
Like Madonna, it's all about M-O-N-E-Y
Re: Allie –
Please if that happens, kill me.
Go to hell Mtv.
So they're remaking Friday the 13th, and Nightmare on Elm Street. A LOT of my died when I heard that but now this?! YOU CAN'T FUCKING REMAKE EVERYTHING.
God it pisses me off when movies are remade. They're never as amazing as the original.
America needs to stop raping movies with remakes.
Why?! Why?! Why?! Why would they fuck up RHPS?! No one could ever replace Tim Curry. Fuck MTfuckingV! Why?! If It ain't broke don't fucking fix it! I don't want to see a classic butchered! I don't want to see little fucking jit shit pretending that they know what Rocky Horror is all about. How can MTV ruin a classic?! I will not support this fucking crap they're trying to do. Fucking Fuck MTV!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess that the people in the movie biz are LAME because they aren't creative enough to come up with new ideas! I mean really? What is better than Tim Curry? Nothing.
