What do you know today that you didn't know yesterday?

[Rev. Rye]

Something I only just noticed on my umpteenth watching of Rocky Horror, while I was long aware that the American Gothic couple at the beginning were played by Richard O'Brien and Patricia Quinn (Giving yourself backing vocals does draw attention to you), I did not notice that Tim Curry played the minister who officiated at the wedding:



(Note: It had been a long-ass time since I had seen the movie, and at the time, the Tim Curry roles I was familiar with either had him in shittons of makeup [whether it's as Pennywise or even Frank], were shot after he gained weight, or were just voiceover. I guess it took me watching Clue to finally recognise him.)

Plus, it seems like most of the other guests were played by the Transylvanian extras. Columbia even plays an Emily Dickinson lookalike during "Dammit Janet". A carryover from the original stage production? A half-done homage to the "And you were in it" aspects of Wizard of Oz? A Hereditary-style situation where practically everyone we see is either part of Frank's cult or will be by the end? You make the call!

I look forward to the day when people are mad because they cannot clutter the roads with their vehicles due to petrol shortages.

Laws will be passed that require the rich to get gas first, THEN the food delivery system.

You clearly haven't been following the hissy fits the far-right have been throwing over the idea of "15-minute cities."

Amazing. One of the relatively few things from the "good old days" that might have been good to reinstate, and the reactionaries riot because their true allegiances are with the big corporations and whatever right-wing demagogues they're willing to pay off.

Many years after I first went to the cult weekly showing of this (dragged kicking and screaming) by my friends, I found I still had rice in my blue blazer pockets. 
I remember I especially enjoyed the "script" from the audience, which was unique to each site.  The script from Michigan State, where my friends had athletic scholarships, was the best I ever encountered. I came back to San Diego, and introduced their lines to SD. They laughed  ... a lot.

For the record, the closest I've come to the proper in-theater experience is the Midnight Experience on the Blu-Ray.

There is a drive-in here that is having RHPS as the second feature on 10-21 (first is Hotel Transylvania, ick). They will be supplying all of the 'props' for participants. Might be fun, my wife and I are still deciding. The nice part, only $10/person.

There is also a live performance at a theater for ~5 days, I'll pass on that, I've seen pictures of the cast.

The story that NASA Spent millions to develop a pen that would work in space in zero G while the Russians simply used pencils is not true, at least not in the spirit as it was told. During the Apollo Soyuz mission, when Soviet and US space craft docked in space, Soviet cosmonauts were so enamored with NASA space pen that the Soviet Union approached NASA to purchase it. This was the time of detent and interest in less frosty relationship with the other superpower caused US to approve the export. Anticipating the warm relationship may not last forever, the Soviet purchased a large supply that lasted them until well after the end of the Cold War.

You clearly haven't been following the hissy fits the far-right have been throwing over the idea of "15-minute cities."

Amazing. One of the relatively few things from the "good old days" that might have been good to reinstate, and the reactionaries riot because their true allegiances are with the big corporations and whatever right-wing demagogues they're willing to pay off.

Somebody should point out to the MAGATs and the old guard GOP that Mayberry was a 15 minute city, just to watch the smoke roll out their ears!

Belfast was also a 15 minute city, because that was the average life expectancy if you were in the wrong neighbourhood after dark.*

*exaggeration for comedic purposes. It was actually closer to 30 minutes.

Train from the movie The Fugitive is still standing in North Carolina since 1992 where it collided with a bus.
