There is no reason to remake this film, and MTV knows it. That's why it's bullshit to burn the bread on this. Question; Who's the target audience? Certainly not teens. Teens today can't begin to fuck with this concept. The original play and film were for adults. And young adults in the 70's, I think, were waaay more mature and hip than young adults today. The o.g. is a stone classic. I've seen it MANY times in the movie theatre ever since Jr. High...Who in the hell are they going to get to play Tim Curry's role? Justin Timberlake and shit? People today have NO vision so the casting is going to kill it off before they shoot one frame. Shame on Lou Adler, who I've always been a fan of, for even joining in on this bullshit. Truth be told, they'll be better off to get Quentin or Rob Zombie to cast and direct. I bet the castle that they have way more grasp on what to do with this film for today. I KNOW Rob fucked up the new Halloween but still...The casting is everything to pull this off. And the people who are going to get casted are going to be whack. Their going to make a mockery of the film.
