the Rocky Horror Picture Show
 

Hey guys!
Sorry, I haven't been around much but I've been doing research for an upcoming new project of mine, but I thought I'd take a few minutes to see who on the Technodrome is a fan of the eternal cult-classic: The Rocky Horror Picture Show!

BTW interesting observation I had watching it. You know how during the credits to most movies you have the disclaimer explaining the the preceding was a work of fiction. Anyway, I noticed that the film in question happens to have such a disclaimer. Did they really think it was nessesary?

Of course, when I told this observation to my Aunt, she mentioned that alot of the people at those whacky midnight-movie showings of Rocky Horror (that I'd really like to attend someday) don't seem to realize it's not real. So, maybe it IS nessesary!

Anyway, **does the time-warp**

That film was a friggin drug trip and a half. :lol: It's hard to believe my high school art teacher loves it to death.

I had a friend who dropped acid and watched this movie. He was never the same again.

As for me, well, thanks to an ex girlfriend, I know all of the steps to the time warp.

It's just a jump to the left

<-------

And then a step to the riiiiiiiiiiiight

Yeah, I'll stop there.

I love that movie. This, along with Singin in the Rain, is one of my favorite musicals.

Tim Curry really does a great job as Frank-n-Funter

Damn. You swing from one extreme to the next, dontcha? :lol:

I've got a bit of a love-hate relationship with that movie. As an adult, I can appreciate the blatant weirdness and camp. But I made the misfortune of watching that movie as a 7 year old and I don't think I was every the same again. My little kid mind just could wrap itself around that movie, and I was in turmoil for a while trying to grasp just what the f*ck was going on. I honestly think that movie made me question just what the hell was sexuality anyway for the first time.

Also, Meatloaf and his scary ass bike haunted me for years. Everytime I saw that Bat Out of Hell video, I got the jibblies.

And as for that disclaimer, it's so that no one can claim the movie or characters were based off them and try to sue the production company for it. Just standard operatin' procedure.

I love this movie! If you have the 25th anniversery dvd, watch the movie with the audience commentary, it's a laugh! My favorite song from that movie is "Superheros".

:lol: What can i say? Both can be viewed as science fiction, and I love science fiction musicals!

as for favorite Rocky song.. I'd have to say.. "Dammit Janet" and perhaps "Creature of the Night"

You know, I hate Musicals, myself, but I really enjoy this film. In fact, the only other musical that I like is Little Shop of Horros. I guess if they were to make more campy sci-fi from the 50's style parodies as Musicals, I'd listen to more.
