If you don’t think this is a 10/10 I’m not sure what’s wrong with you…
i didn't really 'get' it
>>215494862>>215494862It's got a handful of catchy songs, but I'm seldom in the mood to sit down and watch the whole thing.
I have to agree with pol on this one, throughly repulsive dogshit and a disgrace to cinema
>>215494862>If you don’t think this is a 10/10 I’m not sure what’s wrong with you…This but with the sequel.
>>215495081It’s obviously best watching with cultish fans in a theatre with a shadow cast but I think if you can just stay in for the first few songs you get captured enough to finish it. Tim Curry gives one of the best performances of all time.
>>215495114>Actually its an equal>...Actually its a failed abortion
>>215494862It's a cult classic, one of the best. I went to a showing when I was about 13 in full drag, and I'm pretty sure nobody knew whether I was legit a girl or a boy in drag. Good times.
I don’t care for the third actAnd I’d prefer meatloafs song cut
>>215495223>failed abortionI like Rocky but calling it that is a bit too much, you think?
YOU'RE A HOT DOG BUT YOU BETTER NOT TRY TO HURT HER... FRANK FURTER!
>>215495258Meatloaf’s song is absolutely necessary what are you talking about
>>215495257Did you get your bussy split open by an older man afterwards?
>>215495258This dude doesn't like Hot Patootie kek what a loser
>>215495348They could explain it without a song or do a better song.
>>215495257I know this is bait but I honestly wish I had seen it when I was younger. I feel like I wouldn’t have been so embarrassed or hesitant about being sexual with girls in my late teens and maybe I wouldn’t have been a virgin for so long.
>>215495028Same. I don't understand "camp" in general. It's not really "so bad it's good" cause it's intentional. I don't think it's ironic either. I also don't understand Drag either. What's a Drag Race? Can you 'win' one? How do you win? Are the men making fun of women? What makes it funny?
>>215495114I didn’t even know there was a sequel?
>>215495615Yes. Both films share the same director, producers, writers, composer, and a half-dozen cast members return but there's little to no continuity with Rocky Horror and it's 90% less gay.
>>215495538Camp is like the inversion of high art circling back into high art when done right. It’s so tastefully low brow it’s become ironically high brow.
>>215495287No no, i love shock treatment, in many ways more than rocky. I own a shitton of shock treatment stuff. I was quoting richard o'brien
>>215494862>be me>watch The Rocky Horror Picture Show>it promises to be a late night double feature picture show>it's actually only one single movieMissing half of the promised content, mathematically it cannot exceed a 5/10 rating.
>>215495711Faggots are maggots!Thank god I'm a Maaaaaaan
>>215495781Damn I’ll have to check it out then
>>215495849The double feature refers to Brad and Janet being a feature added to Frank N Furter’s Castle
>>215495869Brad and Janet aren't Science Fiction so they could not possibly qualify as a Science Fiction Double Feature.
>>215495884[Chorus]Science Fiction, Double FeatureDr. X will build a creatureSee androids fighting Brad and JanetAnne Francis stars in Forbidden PlanetWa-ah-ah-oh-ohAt the late night, double feature picture show
>>215495954>See androids fighting Brad and JanetYes, when will we see this?When, sir, when?
>>215495977After Half-Life 3 comes out
>>215495028Sex is what life is all about hate to break it to ya
>>215495781I was aware of the quote but I still thought you were calling it a failed abortion so that's good.>I own a shitton of shock treatment stuff.Very based. I bought a handful of original lobby cards online for dirt cheap a while back. I'd love to see it on the big screen one day.>>215495850Underrated.
>>215496182I gotta watch it is the music as good?
>>215495210no it isn'tjust watch the movie like a fucking movie, only fags do the "scream at the screen" bullshit
>>215496400Nah it’s fun and you can see all the freaks come out
>>215496443you could also go to a gay bar and suck some cocksI'm gonna stay home, though
>>215496252In my opinion, yes, but you'll have to see yourself. Jess Harper from Phantom of the Paradise constantly steals the show and Little Nell/Columbia looks incredible in it compared to Rocky. Riff Raff and Magenta also have a handful of classic scenes. Unfortunately, many Rocky fans are hardcore purists that won't give Shocky a chance, assuming they are even aware of its existence.
>>215496469I would recommend not watching it immediately after Rocky Horror.It's a good film but the biggest obstacle is recast Brad/Janet and no Tim Curry.
>>215496492What does this have to do with rocky horror?
>>215496500>I would recommend not watching it immediately after Rocky Horror.Agreed.>the biggest obstacle is recast Brad/Janet and no Tim Curry.I think the lack of Tim Curry is what Rocky purists hate most. If he starred in it like originally intended, it would have a considerably warmer reception within the community.Waifu bias aside, I like Sarandon a bit but Harper is arguably the better singer. Funny enough, Cliff DeYoung was Sharman's original choice for Brad in the original film but he couldn't make it for whatever reason so Barry Bostwick was cast instead.
>>215496657with brad and janet you can almost forgive it, since one could argue they're meant to be generic protagonists thrown into nonsense so they don't matter as muchbut when you have 3/4ths of the original "crew" dancing around with a character who was definitely written to be played by Tim Curry, it's a big hindrance
>>215496132>Life is about fuckingYou have the mind of a locust, not a human.
>>215494862disgusting fag movie
>>215496252The first half is kinda bad but the 2nd half is fantastic and I like it more than Rocky
Too gay
>>215497916this
It's fine to enjoy gay shit ironically
>>215494862The reason is that I’m not a degenerate homosexual like you OP.
>>215495467Actually not bait, but I know it probably sounds like it. I had a gf who was into Rocky Horror I met on AOL, that's how I found about it. I got pussy when I was underaged, but then turned into an antisocial autistic incel after I turned 18. Funny, that. Anyways there's nothing wrong with being a virgin, having sex is only one part of life- the grotesque hyperfixation on this as some kind of coming of age right just signifies how vapid our society is, and how severely it lacks any meaningful initiatory rites of passage into manhood. Like I said, I got laid younger than most guys, but I still ended up a complete fuck up neet who's afraid of cute girls.
>>215494862I haven't seen it since a midnight screening in Sydney, Australia in 2005. Pretty crazy to think it would have been projected on film back then. I rated it 9/10 on IMDb. I'll have to rewatch it since it's the 50th anniversary.
>>215494862>dude sexual harrassment is fucking hilarious when it's directed at straight peopleyeah fuck off
>>215499523>rapes you
>>215494862We have Phantom of the Paradise at home
>>215499523Are you referring to the scenes where Frank N Furter "tricks" Janet/Brad into thinking he is the other? I agree those scenes did NOT age well.
>>215500921They go along with it tho?
Has anyone seen the 2016 remake? Looks kino.
>>215501711Nah seems soulless because she’s an actual trans this time
>>215494862It was interesting that LGBTQ characters formed a storyline that had nothing to do with persecution of LGBTQ people. It was a 1970s movie that normalized LGBTQ people as anybody else who likes to sing and dance. I disliked the movie itself though and don't understand how people at my college lost their shit over it. But I deeply respect its legacy.
>>215495849>>215495869It was originally released as a double feature along with Brian De Palma’s Phantom of Paradise.
I want to wear womens clothes
>>215494862Woke garbage.
>>215502118OP here, I’m as right wing as it gets genuinely. However, I can recognize great art and a masterpiece when I see one. This film is special in ways most don’t even come close to and I have to be objective about that.
>>215494862I saw it one time but I never understood the reception. Singing in movies is kinda boring.
>>215494862Yeah it is awesome, I went to a shadowcast performance last night and couldnt take my eyes off the actress playing Magenta>>215495977You sound German>>215500921Frank is an evil entity, the scene is fine you guys are just pussies>>215501711Fucking awful, dont bother. Cash grab by NBC/Universal, as if they needed more
>>215502167Dude I was at the coral gables art cinema last night and the girls who played Janet (and Rocky ironically) were so fineeeeee
>>215495257>It’s a cult classic, one of the bestI’m not even a massive fan of the movie and I can’t deny this statement. Imagine how pussy Tim Curry was drowning in at this time, a literal tsunami. KEK
>>215502277damn I didn’t even think of that
>>215502536Yea, dude. He was FUCKING DROWNING in it. Probably some of the hottest bitches ever.
>>215502164>yet everyone loves La La Land
>Does a sickfuck pervert movie about being a transexual homo degenerate >Has a stroke and becomes infirmed GOOD
>>215502769Go fuck yourself Tim Curry is a national treasure
>>215502769Eat shit, nigger. Tim Curry is the man.
>>215502807Based
>>215494862>be young me>see this at video store>feel a certain way but know something is offI can't even put into words how over it had been at that point
>>215503201lol, fag
>>215494862>If you don’t think this is a 10/10 I’m not sure what’s wrong with you…
>>215503201Wdym by that? Are you gay or something?
>>215495954It's "see androids fighting: Brad and Janet"
>>215503317>fag who can’t appreciate great art
>>215503201You might not have turned out gay, but you would have become a theatre kid.
>>215495954>Science Fiction, Double Feature>Dr. X SEX SEX AND MORE SEX>will build a creature>See androids fightingAND FUCK AND SUCKING>Brad and Janet>Anne Francis stars inDEEPTHROAT THE SEQUEL TO>Forbidden Planet>Wa-ah-ah-oh-oh>At the late night, double feature picture show
>>215495954>see androids fighting, brad and janetit's a separate clause
>>215502739God I wish that were me
>>215503484I pity theatre kids they know not how annoying they are
>>215503429Its a fag filmSo what if you find temporary scizo drag cosplay? You are still a normie dudebro in plain baggy jeans and t-shirts who wouldnt socialiuze with men who wears makeup and tight alternative fashion as their everyday styleBeing a normie dudebro with buzzcut hair and plain baggy clothing and assuming doing silly hand gestures or a silly dance makes you like Prince or David Bowie is cringe as fuck
>>215496182I saw a theatrical screening with a shadowcast and it was the most surreal movie theater experience I've had. At the beginning the audience in the movie is standing up and singing my irl audience stood up and was singing too, so it was two audiences singing at each other and I was kinda drunk and felt crazyThe atmosphere was exacerbated by knowing that the people there didn't actually like the movie, they were just there because they'd worn out Rocky Horror but still needed what they were doing to be something related to it to feel like they were enjoying themselves
>>215503429Says the guy who has to chop off his dick to allow himself to hit the gym or even comb his hair
>>215496625It's a direct sequel following Brad and Janet
>>215497800He's right and you're living in a fantasy world
>>215503906>>215503929The projections is crazy
>>215503958>>215497800It’s sad but true. Look at your and everyone’s lives. Everything we do is to either get or retain sex.
>>215504048Lecturing other men on dressing normal while doing silly hand gestures while singing along to Rocky Horror songs are cringe as fuckYou still live a functionalistic normie dudebro life while dispicing subcultural men who wears makeup and expressive clothing everyday and not only during weekends as "drag"It requires mutilation for you to allow yourself daily makeup and expressive clothing wearing and not worn as ocassional cosplay for camp effectYou libs have the same view on dresscodes as conservatives when it comes to "cismen"
>>215504048Let me guess, you are also a male swiftie?
>>215495538>are the men making fun of womenYes
>>215504349>dispicingESOL alert lmfaooo
>>215502769Hes Nigel Thornberry, bro
>>215504980Based I didn’t know that
>>215494862It's a great movie for me. I love the make-up, the acting, the story and actors were weird, the music is great. 11/10 in my book. I can take Tim Curry in a fight too.
>>215505559Well considering he’s in a wheelchair I’d be surprised if you couldn’t
>>215505661Welcome to /tv/, lurk more before posting.
>>215495028It's about "modern" or futuristic (for 1975, when Queen, Twisted Sisters, Bowie, Kiss, etc. got started, Grease is also from that era) rock and roll, older rock and roll/rockabilly -Eddie- and even older pop -Janet/Brad-, the type of relationships from one to the next, and also just homaging old B movies as the opening song thoroughly establishes. It misses the mark in how early we'd get there but it accurately perceived and predicted where faggotry was going, the crowd of party goers looks like a woke circus, it could be considered the first use of the rainbow as a fag symbol. It distilled the era perfectly like The Matrix did for the 90's. None of that is too important if you don't like the songs and the actors.
>>215502040You're 100% correct.
>>215505796your rainbow analysis is a lie I just watched it last night and there was not a single rainbow
>>215494862A bit gay, innit.
>>215506013Tim Curry pours liquid with the colors of the rainbow in a tank to create his boyfriend, making a weird sound every time he opens one. The side of the tank has a horizontal rainbow.
>>215500707You disgust me.
>>215506100*just checked, there are 6 faucets with the 6 colors of the gay flag
>Curry is carrying this movie like there is no tomorrow>Sarandon is a cutie and has a great voice>Song are great>Movie's end with a moral saying that Frank was a too much of a degenerate
>>215495258Meatloaf's song is the best song in the whole fucking movie.
>>215494862Why do all millennial woman worship this shlock?
>>215506481>Movie's end with a moral saying that Frank was a too much of a degenerateFinally someone fuckin remembers
>>215500707Phantom BTFOs Rocky in every measure
>>215506122Fuck but it must be a coincidence
>>215495849Math checks out
>>215495258Hot Patootie is the only song in the show that stands on its own with no reference to the gay alien Frankenstein story.
>>215495258literally the best song in the movie
Going to see this in a theatre at uni radicalized me against white people
>>215494862>>215500707For me, it's Forbidden Zone.
>>215509673Rocky Horror or Phantom fans who haven't seen this one need to get on that this shit, it's an 11/10. In my Top 5 of all time.
>>215509673>>215509721Someone from /hor/ finally got me to watch this earlier this year and it's definitely a classic. Peak wacky.
>>215509300you were already against them, Seth, admit it
>>215494862every night this week the hipster theater near me has been playing this with costumes and shit, if i go would i become gay
>>215510959ur gay

>>215503906>Its a fag filmduh, it's a musical
>>215494862Tim Curry was out of his fucking mind in it.

>>215514696No subtitles, no watch.
>>215514696Gilbert and Sullivan plays are the definition of prissy, what are you on about? There's a reason it's a running gag for Frasier and Niles to randomly break into G&S musical numbers on Frasier.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONwYOhpIAoYTheatre simply has a stigma of being for sissies or gays. Not that I'm personally upset by it. I love musicals and I'm straight as an arrow, stigma be damned.
It was great when it all beganI was a regLAR Frankie fanBut it was over when he a planTo starta workin on a muscle maaan

>>215494862no because it has a tranny in it
>>215515917not an argument
>>215516646This movie has arguments in it too.
>>215515735for the orgy?
AHM JUS SEVEN OURS OLDtruly beautiful, to behold
>>215496455I'm with you man my girl wants to go to one of these shadow cast things and i already know how gay it's gonna be
>>215516928Nah it’s fun with your gf stop being a bitch
>>215516928Go to a shadowcast, but don't admit you're a virgin at the beginning or you'll have to run around in your underwear.
>>215516928I dated a very autistic girl for a few weeks and we went to Rocky Horror every damn weekend the whole time. She was extremely averse to physical contact and I never ended up even kissing her, but after a Rocky screening she initiated holding my hand, which must've meant she got REALLY worked up.
>>215517484>you'll have to run around in your underwear.People pay money for humiliation? Amazing
Rocky horror or The Adventures of Priscilla?
Sword of Damocles >>>>>> the rest
>>215517659Dude, this is Rocky Horror we're talking about so it shouldn't be a surprise. Even James Cameron did it once.
bump
>>215500921Frank is in many ways the villain of the story.
>>215514696>Bro, musicals and opera aren’t gay!Sweetie…
>>215517696This show is nearly completely forgotten lost media because music companies hold an absurd amount of power.If you make something and it has a song in it without permission you own none of it.If you got permission but the permission ran out you no longer own it.This doesn't happen with anything else. Just music.
>>215517696>>215520110What is this?
>>215520203Drew Carey Show
>>215520110If you only licensed the music for certain time then duh, you can’t use it later.
My favorite part is meatloaf. After he gets killed i get bored and stop watching usually.
>>215520110Reminds me how you have to get permission to have "Happy Birthday to You" sung in a movie, imagine negotiating those rights.
>>215520295Happy Birthday To You is now public domain, the copyright finally expired few years back.
>>215494862>If you don’t think this is a 10/10 I’m not sure what’s wrong with you…I'm heterosexual.
>>215520295>>215520317What actually happened is that the company that had been selling the rights to the Happy Birthday Song for decades was full of shit. They'd bought the rights to the instrumental version of the song that no one's ever heard not the lyrics. So they promptly got sued into oblivion by every studio that had ever paid them for a song they didn't actually own.
>>215495258>And I’d prefer meatloafs song cutIdiot.He based his entire career and stage persona on Eddie and this song, even if you didn't care for this it led to absolute GOLD like the Bat Out of Hell albums. Were it not for Rocky Horror Meatloaf would have been a jobbing musical theatre actor getting only supporting roles, despite his talent and amazing voice.
