Rocky Horror Picture Show

Heyy!

Today we're going to talk about a cult classic the Rocky Horror Picture Show! Since 'they' have decided to redo this movie (coming October 2016) we're going to chat about the original!

This one might be a little longer than normal bear with me guys!

This more than slightly odd movie stars 

                                                  Tim Curry - Dr. Frank-N-Furter 

                                                        Susan Sarandon - Janet Weiss 

                                                       Barry Bostwick - Brad Majors 

Synopsis :P 

The movie starts with a pair of bright red lips singing Science Fiction/ Double Feature than opens on the front of a church with a wedding party coming out the font doors, and driving away in their just married car, launching promptly into a musical number Dammit Janet ending with the proposal of two of the main stars, Janet and Brad.

Getting lost on the way to share their good news Brad and Janet launch into Over At The Frankenstein Place as the approach the doors to the dark mysterious castle walking right into a strange party fully of guests singing and dancing The Time Warp. 

Only wanting to use the phone Brad and Janet are promptly stripped of their sopping wet clothes as Frank-N-Furter makes his grand entrance down the semi sketchy elevator singing Sweet Transvestite.

Switching locations to the laboratory to show off his newest creation Rocky -Peter Hinwood moving into Sword of Damocles.

then right into I Can Make You A Man. Crashing into the scene making a huge, messy, entrance is Eddie - Meat Loaf singing Hot Patootie - Bless My Soul, then finishing with I Can Make You A Man Reprised. 
                                                              Meat Loaf - Eddie

The movie calms down a small bit and everyone is shown a room for the night until Frank-N-Furter sneaks into both Janet, and Brads room to seduce them launching into a Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me between Janet and Rocky. 

Once it looks as though Frank-N-Furter and Brad have done 'the deed' Brad launches into Once In A While while Janet cries to herself in another room. 

Everyone in the castle is awake when the great Dr. Everett V. Scott - Jonathan Adams

Launching into the question of everybody's name over and over. The respectful host he his Frank-N-Furter has everyone sit to dinner for Rocky's Birthday then Singing Eddie.

Frank-N-Furter grows annoyed with Janet chasing her through the laboratory singing Planet Schmanet, Janet resulting in Janet, Brad, and Dr. Scott being stuck, or glued to the floor, than has a switch flipped turning Janet, Dr. Scott, Brad, Rocky, and Columbia into naked statues. 

                                                          Nell Campbell - Columbia 

The next scene opens on a stage 

launching into Rose Tint My World transitioning into Fanfare/ Don't Dream It

Riff Raff and Magenta burst into the scene fed up with Frank-N-Furter and are ready to go home!

                                     Richard O'Brien - Riff Raff    Patricia Quinn - Magenta 

Going right into Wild And Untamed Thing chasing Frank-N-Furter around the stage. Once Riff Raffs proclamation is made Frank-N-Furter sings I'm Going Home only to be told he isn't coming ending with everyone in the pool singing Super Heroes wrapping up with Science Fiction/ Double Feature reprised 

Review Time!

Okay Personally I looove this movie! 

It's great quirky, funny, and has some great songs with the all time classic dance number 

The characters aren't exactly relatable but it is so much fun to watch!! 

Theres a new fave song waiting for you just behind the bright red lips 

If you've watched The Rocky Horror Picture Show let me know what you though did you have a fave number?


Thanks for reading! I'll be back soon!

Archie Married Life! Book Two!

Heyy!

Today were going to talk about one of my personal favourite comic books (series...?)! So were going to be doing this inside out and backwards by starting with book two cause why not?

There will be spoilers. You have been warned!


 


In every book in this series it flips between what marriage would be like with Betty as well as how it would be like to be married to Veronica spending more than a few pages on each side of the potential story line. When the book flips to the other girls life the 'chapter' opens with a quote from something that happened in the previous 'chapter' and picks up right where they left off.

                

Personal Copy :P 

This book opens up with a synopsis of what the characters have been up to then launches its self right into married life with Veronica Lodge-Andrews. 

I like that in both worlds Jughead starts dating, eventually marrying Midge, and owns the Chock'lit Shoppe. 

In the Archie marries Veronica parts of the book Betty starts to hang out with the infamous Reggie Mantel! Which eventually grows into something great between the two of them, I have to admit as cute as Archie and Betty are together I ship Reggie and Betty (Beggy?...)  so hard! :P 

The book is careful to keep up with all the characters in Archie's life without it being confusing or leaving anyone out from some of the 'regular' comics.

  

Review time!

Okay I really like the way the story lines flow smoothly throughout the book, I also enjoy how realistic the story lines are, you really feel like the authors wrote what would / could happen to each and every character and not for a gimmick to draw in more readers. 
I enjoy reading the story lines and all the possibilities that go with the book(s) they are creative and full of twists and turns that take you on an Archie-fied journey thats enjoyable to read.  

I would recommend this series to anyone, mostly those who enjoy comics but I think anyone and everyone could enjoy the fun sparky story line! This book has only a couple of downer moments, but what good series doesn't? :P 

Love Archie Comics!

Thank you for reading! I'll be back soon!
