< Casting has been done. >If you're worried about this being a bad idea, ease those concerns because this is being made for TV! What could go wrong? A two hour TV movie based on a cult B movie based on a play filled with adult themes and sexual content stuffed into prime time? Those executives at Fox are fucking geniuses! Too bad they can't cancel Firefly again while they're at it! Posted by GORDON on Jan. 05 2016,08:57
This means nothing to me, I didn't have any kind of attachment to the first one.

And, btw, < Glee already did it > That episode was a great night. My wife was WAY into Glee and trying to get me to watch. When they said they were doing Rocky Horror, she knew she could get me to watch with her. It was fucking terrible. TERRIBLE. She admitted it and lost interest in the show after that. QUOTE This means nothing to me, I didn't have any kind of attachment to the first one. I do for various reasons. I've always liked Tim Curry's work. I think the music is solid. It's oddly a movie that my way too conservative father ("Hollywood is nothing but drug users and homosexuals") really enjoyed. The live shows were always awesome. Etc. But you don't need to have any sort of attachment to the first one to realize this is a terrible idea and just another one in a long line of bad ideas coming out of FOX.

For stupid levels this is on par with CMT deciding to do a made-for-TV remake of This Is Spinal Tap

Wow. They should remake The Big Lebowski as a TV film, too.
