I agree the CGI in these movies start all looking the same, with the same results.. an apocalyptic battle which the CGI's lose..*Yawn*

Just a thought: Is there a transexual transvestite from transylvania somewhere in the movie? Or maybe zombies? Maybe we could work in a drum circle and didges into the audience participation of this show somehow.

My crazy brother decided that his children should see "Rocky Horror Picture Show" when they were still teens.
They weren't prepared for what they saw and to this day that they have their own children they still kinda resent having seen it unprepared. They didn't know what Tim Curry was when he first enters from that elevator.
I myself watched GLEE (that TV program with the really talented High School kids singing their hearts out) when they did Rocky Horror and I got to tell you, "toucha toucha toucha touch me" made me squirm with unease at a HS girl singing it. too young. too young.
Not that I don't have fun with Rocky Horror, however, it's college material and even then, only with some foreknowledge of what;s going to happen.

I first saw Rocky Horror when I was a freshman in college, and "I" wasn't ready for it!
hehe
Poor kids. I would never do that to my boys.

'Avengers' sinks 'Battleship' at box office
By Lisa Richwine and Piya Sinha-Roy, Reuters
http://entertainment.msnbc.msn.com/_new ... ffice?lite
Superhero movie "The Avengers" topped U.S. and Canadian box office charts for a third straight weekend with $55.1 million, sending action movie "Battleship" into second place and toppling comedy "The Dictator," according to studio estimates on Sunday.
"Avengers," from Walt Disney Co's Marvel Studios, has amassed more than $457 million in domestic ticket sales since its debut earlier this month and another $723 million internationally for a worldwide total of $1.18 billion, according to Disney.
"Battleship," which had high hopes of becoming a summer blockbuster in the U.S. and Canada, could muster only $25.3 million this weekend in the face of the "Avengers" juggernaut.

I have a copy of Rocky Horror show that I am waiting for some night were I can put on my rain coat, grab my squirt gun, and crank it up. The problem I have is playing it at midnight, I am usually in bed by then.

Gee. When I first saw Rocky Horror I thought it a sweet innocent, uplifting movie of the Mary Poppins type. And I remember the high school girls, who at 3 PM turned from sweet schoolgirls to hooker wannabes. Perhaps I am just cynical.

Battleship did an Arizona during Box Office surprise.
It's Ok.
Don't be offended.
My uncle survived on the Nevada when it happened. Front row seat.
