Bring on the tough stuff. There’s not just one right answer.
- Janet's a dynamic character, changing over the course of the film. How does she change? Which other characters are dynamic? Which characters are static and don't change?
- Is Frank-N-Furter a villain? If so, why? If you don't think he is a villain, then what role does he fulfill?
- Other actors, like Mick Jagger, were interested in the role of Frank-N-Furter. How would the character be different if he had been played by someone else?
- What films does Rocky Horror pay homage to? Are its tributes sincere or funny?
- How would the movie be different if it weren't a musical? Would it be possible to make a non-musical version of this film? (And have it be half-decent?)
- Why was Rocky Horror a flop at release? What changed it into the success it is today?
- Rocky Horror is still showing in theaters over forty years after its release. What makes it so popular? Why do so many people identify with Rocky Horror? Is Rocky Horror a "good" movie?
- How is the Rocky Horror experience different in the theater vs. watching it at home?
