He'd never allow a remake. He wrote it. Rocky Horror is his.

It sold them years ago. He regained the rights for the stage show though.
He has no say in this... So your wrong.
'It' sold them? What's 'it'?

You know, the thing that came from outer space at a deadly pace.
If you're a fan of Rocky, you shouldn't ask such silly questions.

No sense asking any of the original posters anything, they haven't posted on IMDb in years.
They also misspelled "you're" so, don't worry about that either.

Well gee... Look whose big foot is in their mouth right now..... LMAO share
Not really, O'Brien has no involvement or say whatsoever in this production. It's out of his hands.

That's irrelevant to the point. The poster stated the show would never happen, and lo and behold it's happening. share
Well, comments on this page go back to 2009, when MTV was planning to produce a version of the show. So yes, the OP was wrong about it happening, but also wrong about O'Brien's blessing.

He hasn't had them for a long while now. Lou Adler does.

He didn't. Go reread my previous response.
He wrote it.
So he did.
Rocky Horror is his.
Wrong. Not for a while now, Rocky Horror is Lou Adler's.

He may have zero control over this. I would LOVE to know his thoughts on this though. To be honest.... he did it right the first time.
shareHere's his thoughts on it. He's very... "polite" about it.

Indeed he was polite and showed class. I wonder, however, if he or any of the other originals will give their critiques on the show now that's been aired?
