Nooooooo!
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.
Oh, the HOrror!

TIM CURRY WAS & IS THE ONLY TRANS-SEXUAL THAT I THOUGHT WAS SUPER SEXY!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE MANY REASONS I STOPPED WATCHING MTV YEARS AGO!!! AND IN GENERAL…..AREN'T THERE ANY NEW IDEAS NOW DAYS FOR MOVIES? ARE WRITERS SO CLUELESS THAT THEY ALWAYS HAVE TO RUIN THE CLASSICS? HHHEEELLLOOO? CARRIE? TX CHAINSAW MASSACRE? PSYCHO? HALLOWEEN? THE LIST GOES ON!! THIS SUCKS!!!
There isn't a man alive androgynous enough to play Frankinfurter the way that Tim Currey did! Why fuck with perfection?
OMG!!! The world is going to end!!!!!
hundred percent WRONG!!
SIGH!!!! I am seriously upset. That is my favorite movie. I can't watch it. How do I get a petition going to stop it?'
There is only one Frankfurter!
NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I hate MTV with a fiery passion and this just pushes it over the edge. MTV has ruined TV.
Why would they do this? Why would O'Brien let them do this?? noooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOOOOO!!!! Why would they do such a thing?! That's the worst idea I've ever heard of! Don't fuck around with RHPS!!!!!!!!! Please don't!!!!!!!!!!
I hate MTV! You know they're going to turn it into some lame-ass High School Musical/Jonas Brother shit. If there is a God, a meteor will smash into the studio the day they start filming.
MTV just go back to MUSIC Video's. Just cuz you started in the 80's doesn't give you the right to rewrite history. NOOOO TO THE REMAKE.
OK, who's bright idea was this? Dear God, if you're up there Please don't let them turn one of my all time favorite movies into the next High School Musical. Can you see Zac Efron in a Bustier and Fishnet stockings? I think I might have a panic attack.
OK, who's bright idea was this? They are going to turn one of my all time favorite flicks into another High school Musical. Can you see Zac Efron in a bustier and fishnets? I just might have a panic attack.
WTF are they messing with such a brilliant movie ….. they fucked with Halloween and remade that and look how terrible that turned out !
LEAVE THE CLASSICS ALONE! YOU BASTARDS!

WAT THE FUCKKK
when i was 7 years old my mom decided that i was old enough for RHPS
wat was she thinking? i dont no but it is still my favourite moviee from when i could actually understand it…
how can they remake such a classic? im kinda thinking that once it comes out everyone will hate them for trying to re make it
im pissed!!
nooooooooooooooooooooo they are going to ruin it!!!
NOOOOO!!!! No one can ever be Frank N. Furter except Tim Curry. Granted there are a few actors that it would be hilarious to see in drag, but still.
Can we protest? Start a petition or something?
The REASON they keep doing this shit is because no one has any new or FRESH ideas. Oh the horror of it all. The BLASPHEMY…. It's just not right I tell you!

what a hypocrite….it's okay to ruin a perfectly fantastic john water's movie cuz you want to blow zac but they can't mess with rhpc?? they've been ruining stuff for decades, my friend….
I'm so mixed about this! Its awesome that they knew it was good enough and want to bring it back… but NO! Tim Curry could NEVER be replaced and nobody will be better than he was!
I hate you, MTV. I hate you so very, very much.
i am so torn i REALLY DONT want them to mess with this classic but the fact that "ashle" doesnt even know what The Rocky Horror Picture Show is drives me crazy!!! the new generation needs to know this story
God, Tim Curry is hot
I refuse to watch any of these remakes. Apparently the writers didn't just strike — they h*cking DIED!
you do events and pop up on mtv, so shut up
nooo.
this is my fav movie and it will be ruined by fucking mtv.
i petition!!!
BLASPHEMOUS!!!!! you can't remake a movie that has a cult following, it's just not right.
NOOOOO!
TIM CURRY, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!
You CANNOT improve upon Tim Curry's performance!!!
BLASPHEMY
nooooooo!rocky horror picture show is the best movie of all time and no one can play frank as well as tim curry! and susan surrandon is the only true janet! it will be ruined. i am going to be beyond upset.
MTV fucking sucks. RHPS is a classic!!! Who the fuck could do a better job at Frankenfurter than Tim Curry?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the original is a masterpiece! must everything be fucked with????
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO……fuck MTV, they shouldn't TOUCH this movie!
Leave it to MTV to destroy everything we love: music, dancing, and now RHPS.
It's like being mean to a puppy. Should never ever happen. Period.
NONONONONONONONONONO!!!
That is one of the CLASSIC movies ever made, you cannot remake that. Someone needs to start a petition and stop them from making it, it's going to suck real hard.
Fuck MTV. You can't re-make The Rocky Horror Picture Show. No one's going to see that shit.
There has been talk of remakes and sequels and prequels and whatever you want for years.
What a bunch of idiots.
Stop remaking movies that can't be remade.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! I can just see it now, the cast of the fucking Hills trying to play these classic characters….NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please NOOOOOOOOO! This is a classic! I protest! MTV should get a grip. This is the one and only original. But hey, what do you expect….Music VIDEO television has been seen in years. All that there is now is CRAP.They should be playing VIDEOS at leat 90% of the time. Thats why they lost most of their audience.
eww i cant even believe this is happening i want to fucking boycott it
it'll be a huge flop!!!!!
Re: ashle – If you don't know, go rent it!
no one should ever try to remake this classic. whoever thought this would be a good idea should be fired!!!! then again when isnt mtv desperate for shows they "thought would be a good idea"?
WHAT THE FUCK, they can't do that! No one can ever play a better Frank-N-Furter!! But since i'm 15, I'll probably watch the horrible MTV version just for the hell of it. Ew, wtf, they shouldn't touch a cult classic like this.
Hell NOOOOO! This is a classic. I won't watch it at all if they do a remake.
NOOOO!!!!! I am old enough to remember the 80's (responding to court below) and at one point MTV was cool, you know when they playd music videos……….that is what they should stick to and leave RHPS and Tim Curry ALONE!!!!
YES! YES! YES! YES! Original is outdated..customes and overall look can be greatly improved….Cast RUSSELL BRAND as the transvestite!!
Fuck no! This is not cool, MTV!
I seriously doubt that the MTV crowd will get Rocky Horror. I am sure they will fuck it up entirely. This generation (and I am part of this generation) for the most part has not seen the orginal movie or stage production and will not even appreciate it. I am sure MTV will come up with some snazzy VFX for the movie that will cover up the hideous acting jobs. Who is going to top Tim Curry???
No one.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! WTF!???
WHY!?!?!?
MTV is sooooooooo lame! Horrible decision. Some things should not be messed with. Are they kidding? Who is this generation could do what the original cast did? No one is as creepy and wonderful as Tim Curry. We need to protest, and boycott, and bitch and bitch until they give up on this stupid idea! "Don't dream it"-leave our Rocky Horror Picture Show alone!!!
g
Can we start a petition to stop this? TIM CURRY IS THE SHIT. ROCKY FOREVER.
NoOoOooOooOoOOoOooOOooOOOOOooOooOOOooOOOoooOoooOOoOOoOo
NOT POSSIBLE NOT POSSIBLE NOT POSSIBLE
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
TIM CURRY >3
no, just no!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOOOOOOO!! That movie is so unbelievable fantastic. No one… NO ONE… can ever replace Tim Curry as Dr. Frank-N-Furter… NO ONE!! Hollywood needs to be more creative and stop effing up all the greats!
are you frickin kidding me!? lets all picket. no one better go see that movie. i mean seriously who do they think could fill the dreamy dr. franken ferter's platforms???
This is a classic. I agree with everyone that is against it.
MTV is has been lame for years and they are tards for thinking this is a good idea.
NOOOOOO
D:
seriously?!?! do they really think that it will be better than or even equal to the original?!?! i think not!!
They are sooooo gonna ruin it!! just goes to show that there is no originality in movies anymore….
OH DARE THEY!!!!!!!!! HOLLYWOOD SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!! what next remake Gone with the Wind. To whom ever thought of this…..SHAME ON YOU!
NOOOOOOO!!! NO NO NO
whyyyy?
:[
NOOO. its my favorite movie and possibly the greatest movie in all of history so how the fuck can they remake it! noone else can be as sweet a transvestite as tim curry
thats some bull shiz!!! if it aint broke dont fix it! mtv swears whatever they touch turns to gold; more like caca.
Are you serious? Fucking assholes. They have just completely run out of any creative though to come up with new shit so they are redoing the classics. And when I say reduing I mean shitting on.
NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
Just what we need, another f***ing remake. It was perfectly good the first time. "everything but M"TV should know that you don't f*** with a cult classic!
"everything but M"TV should stop making shitty movies. Wasting perfectly good money on crappy films and even more money on shitty, scripted, directed "reality" shows. Stick to music.
Somebody. Anybody. Please come up with a fresh idea concerning movies. Stop beating the dead horse.
Poor kids nowadays, how are they ever going to make their own impression on the future? All they're seeing and hearing is old shit redone. They'll only be creative when it comes to new ways to remake old shit. The way they speak, dress, and even act out. Its all been done before kiddos. Sorry, nothing you're doing is remotely creative nor innovative.
..wtf? just leave the classics as they are! like some chick was like "oh hairspray was a remake?" like omg, what are they also gonna ruin? Grease? they are already remaking some classics and butchering them, such as Dawn of the dead, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Cannibal Holocaust, Halloween..and not to menchan all the asian horror movies. Total protest, just leave the classic musicals alone they were brilliant the way they were with the original music!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHAT THE F*CK! Why!?!?!? This is wrong on so many levels. Is it bad that I am really angry about this?
NOOOOOOOOOO why? why of all great musicals?? can we sign a petition asking them NOT TO FUCK WITH A GREAT SHOW????
heres an idea MTV how bout ya stop making stupid reality tv shows…
and annoying remakes of movies that no one will care about
and start fucking bringing back MUSIC… thats what you are called right?
MTV for MUSIC TELEVISION? no RSAMTV RETARDED SHOWS AND MOVIE TELEVISION!
This is just a bad idea and it wont end well for anyone. Poor choice MTV, poor choice.
Might as well re-make Gone With the Wind, starring Heidi and Spencer!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Most of the MTV Productions are CRAP!
Okay, I keep looking at my calendar, PRAYING it's April Fool's Day and this is just a joke! What can we do, folks, to keep this from happening? I remember seeing this for the first time on campus and being incredulous that I was labeled a "virgin"! I introduced my mom to it years later, and she thought Frank-N-Furter was DAMN SEXY! Seriously, how can we stop this from being remade into oblivion?????
NO! WHY SCREW WITH SOMETHING THAT IS PERFECTLY FINE!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE NO!!!!!!!!! IT will be terrible!!
nooooooooooooo
This makes me very sad!! I would love to see ryan reynolds as rocky horror though. I know it doesn't make much sense but any excuse to show his body is a good one to me. I hate u mtv!
