I watched it last night....
Same words/songs as the original, interjected with scenes of audience participation, with Tim curry doing the narration, and directed by Richard o brien  |

Love the original ( stage and film) .
Seen bits of the new one;
Not sure really; it's just a direct copy of the original with new actors, not sure what chats about;
if they had to do a new one; it would have been better to give it a new interpretation |

It's very Disney-fied.
I'm a huge fan of the original film and the stageshow. I did enjoy the remake for what it was. Tim Curry's assistant really made it for me. She was hilarious. |

"Just why?!!
*sobs gently into his hands*
I thought you didn't even like it?  "
I'd not heard of a remake...
But really, why mess with perfection? It's just greed. Whatever the excuse. I don;t care who's in it...
Just stop, relax and take a moment to remember:

Oh, Richard O'Brien's voice coming out of Pat Quinn's mouth  |

(Narrator) It's just a jump to the left.
(Guests) And then a step to the right.
(Narrator) With your hand on your hips.
(Guests) You bring your knees in tight.
But it's the pelvic thrust.
They really drive you insane.
Let's do the Time Warp again.

To me, having Laverne Cox as Franknfurter misses the point.
Laverne is a true transgender; now a woman, so although she plays it well, it's a woman dressed as a woman. So no longer a transvestite
Franknfurter has to obviously be a man dressed up; that's what the campiness is all about.
It's a bloke "being" a woman; not a woman being a woman. Even if the actress is a transgendered person.
