Good luck with that - much as I agree it won't be a worthy remake. Two major players will be involved as producers: "Sky announced that Richard O'Brien, who wrote the stage production, co-wrote the screenplay and directed the first film, would return as a producer for the remake. Lou Adler, who served as executive producer of the 1975 movie, will be back in the same role for the upcoming project."
Uh, there ain't nothing wrong with the ORIGINAL! ::rolleyes::
You know why a lot of remakes are being made by Hollywood? Cause some of the production houses have no fucking imagination and/or they're too lazy to come up with something NEW. ::rolleyes::
So, out of curiousity, why does it matter if they re-make it? they're not removing the original, they're not even taking it out of print or syndication, so...what good will it serve to stop them spending whatever money they want to on whatever they want? I don't particularly have a care one way or the other, but I find it a bit, um, anti-first ammendment-ish and almost scary right wing-ish to try to petition to stop an artistic endeavor of any kind, regardless of who's doing it and what they're re-making. i'm just curious. :) Now, if they said "we want to burn the original and replace it with a cheap knockoff" that would be another story. ;)
