Save Rocky Ra-Ra-Ra

I'll admit it. The Rocky Horror Picture Show is my favorite movie. No, it's more like a security blanket in celluloid. So, imagine my rage when I found out there was going to be a remake my heart was going to break. When I found out that MTV was going to be in charge, my heart shattered.
Aren't movie goers tired of going to see recycled redone and often worse than the original movie?

Remakes after a few decades or when the original is out of print don't bother me as much. But you can not only buy RHPS on DVD or VHS, you can also still see it in many theaters across the country and even other countries. A remake does not need to be done. Worst still, most of the main cast is still alive. (Tim Curry would still be fabulous in drag after all these years!)

And MTV? You've got to be kidding me? They haven't been about music since the early 90s. It's been about promoting people with little talent and bad make up. They wouldn't handle it with the care it deserves. They'd probably push Paris Hilton and Chad Michael Murray in their undies in front of Pete Wentz (Because Marilyn Manson turned it down) While Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen do a shockingly convincing incestuous Riff Raff and Magenta.

Does the mere thought turn your stomach yet? Then sign the petition and feel a little better.

The whole spectacle of a RHPS remake is going to be disgusting and way over priced. With any luck MTV will drop this and movie on to do "Paris' Spirituality Hour" or maybe "Brittany Watch '09"
