This doesn't effect me in the slightest. Mostly due to the fact that I've never seen the Rocky Horror Picture Show and have no desire whatsoever to.

*Clenches copy of JAWS ever tighter to his manly bosom* It's ok.....they won't ever get you, my precioussssssssssssss........... Wow I never actually thought about them remaking Jaws. Now that would suck. I would run screaming and naked from my residence, into the streets where I would just club the hell out of the first living creature that I saw.....then proceed to run all the way through town, screaming gibberish the entire while. After that, assuming I'm not locked up.....I'm getting torches and Molotovs and heading for Hollywood. I have always said that, and will always say that. So I can understand where the hardcore RHPS fans are coming from. This is sacred to them, and MTV is gonna ruin it with one of the biotches from THE HILLS or that vacant eyed dude from STEP UP 2.

Only if Ben Affleck plays the shark in Jaws. My god yes. That would be awesome. Matt Damon can play the weathers old sea captain and it can be a reunion.

Well, especially since the existence of this make the original that much less special. Anyone with half a brain will know that it's better than the MTV version...but the kidlets will all point to THEIR version as the better of the two.

Eh, just take solace in the fact that it's virtually guaranteed to tank. Remaking a movie that has only a hardcore following of devoted fans is only going to alienate said fans; the rest of your mainstream audience isn't gonna care one way or another, so this dumb idea is DOA.

And we can do this to Viacom as well. But we need a giant robot first.

Plus those "____________ Movie" films are shot on a low budget, so they turn the company a profit.

I don't really care for the original and I know I am in the minority on that one. That being said, if you locked me in a room and told me to come up with worse ideas than MTV remaking Rocky Horror, I probably couldn't. I'm so sick of remakes and adaptations that I am thinking about enforcing a personal boycott against them. And as with every horrible thing MTV is doing these days thread that gets posted around here, I have to ask the question, would it be a crime for MTV to show MUSIC VIDEOS! Just a thought.

No, no, a thousand times no!
It's not the fact that a remake has been proposed that bothers me. It's MTV's involvement that bothers me. When in the last few years has MTV produced anything that was enjoyable, entertaining and/or somewhat intelligent? And so help me God, if anyone says anything postive about "The Hills", I will punch them in the face where their face lives.
That being said; f*** you, MTV. Leave my Rocky Horror Picture Show alone!
