    This generation of college students doesn't have a cult classic movie to use as a backdrop/reason to put on costumes and get completely ****faced?

    I don't think Twilight and Fifty Shades of Gray count.

    Not to mention the fake outrage from moral guardians who'll say it'll encourage kids to take up transvestism/homosexuality and running around in your underwear.

    (You just know it's going to happen, count on it)

    I thought The Room was this generation's cult classic?

    It'll all be about product tie-ins too. However, the products aimed at those who first saw RHPS in theaters will be laxatives for their consti -

    Idiotic remakes. Entirely new meaning to "Let's do the Time Warp... again". I will join the mob of raging middle aged scenesters who do the midnight showing of the new version solely to revile it and hurl insults. I'm quite adept at live Rocky Horror badgering. A very long time ago, I used to date Magenta. It is an honor to be able to say that with a straight face. :p

    Cult movies aren't manufactured. Their "birth" is the antithesis of that kind of thinking. And you can't just remake one using the same script and make it a cult movie any more than I can pick up a guitar and play Purple Haze and call my self Jimi Hendrix.

    Harold and Maude is the cult classic that most needs to be remade for modern audiences.

    I don't know who they think their audience is with this. Longtime fans, the ones who dress up and sing along at screenings, won't support this, and the rest of the human race doesn't care.

    I have seen a few scenes, but I have never sat and watched Rocky Horror form start to finish.

    Not to mention it was really a product of it's time. No movie remake will ever be able to touch that.

    Very true. That 70s zeitgeist was as much a character as Dr. Frank-N-Furter.
