O hellz no! Here goes another crapfest, sponsored by MTV. I shudder to think of what "new" they are going to inject into this.

DIE MTV. DIE NOW. NOW NOW NOW!
NEW SONGS? NEW MOTHERFUCKING SONGS? BITCH, TELL ME YOU DID NOT JUST SAY THAT.

There is NO FUCKING REASON to remake this. Part of the point of this movie is that it's a B-Movie classic. And I'm sorry, NOBODY can fill Tim Curry's tights for a new film.

This really upsets me. It's all about money. Didn't the people at MTV see "Shock Treatment"? It was horrible and again proves to point you can't rival the original Rocky Horror Picture show. Oh MTV, if only you could see he gesture I'm giving you through the screen. And if you could, I'd tell you to sit on it.

Because the cast will totally tell us HOW useless it will be. I mean is Justin playing Rocky and Heidi playing Janet? Cause that casting takes it from comically useless (drinking game worthy) to flame MTV useless.
