That aspect is going to seem decidedly tame these days.
And what do you do to update that ?
From what I saw on IMDB - Dr. Frank-N-Furter is now played by a woman. With tits and everything. So instead of a full-blooded American male being blown by Freddie Mercury look-alike, we'll be treated to some softcore porn, with girl-on-girl action, which would have been way less threatening even in the 70's, and by now I imagine even "Duck Dynasty" fans will have no problem with it. Seems like a cop-out to me.
