I heard MTV wants to remake Rocky Horror.

Please tell me this is a sick rumor. Or some sort of misunderstanding - like when everyone was saying there was a Breakfast Club remake, when really it wasn't even called Breakfast Club, just described as being similar.

If it's not a rumor... is nothing sacred anymore?

No, I heard the same rumor. The casting sounds...interesting.

Nope, unfortunately it is not a rumor.

There is even a website dedicated to Stopping The Remake (http://www.stoptheremake.com/).

Speaking of remakes, a new version of My Fair Lady is in the works, apparently starring Keira Knightly. I really don't see why it needs a remake.

I was dragged (pun intended) to see that film when I was 15. Quirky, loooooonnnnngggggg-to-the-point-of-yawn-inducing though it may be, nobody holds a candle to Tim Curry. I could take or leave the film itself, even though the thought of Barry Bostwick and Susan Sarandon makes me giggle. I do adore Tim.

Oh, GAK!!!
Who could possibly look better in fishnets and a bustier than Tim Curry???? [Well, ok ... Diedrich Bader did good in that Drew Carrey Show episode where they were doing the competing Rocky Horror vs Pricilla Queen of the Desert bit...]
