"Yes, this potentially life-saving device is called the SHART and what in the Hippocratic fuck are you gonna do about it?"

Reply to comment by Jackleber in TIL The Rocky Horror Picture Show is still in limited release after 47 years making it the longest-running theatrical release in film history by shakeyjake
Sadly, yeah.
Susan's take is pretty reasonable; apparently the cast has yet to receive any royalties from the initial release, let alone the continuing trend of showing it in theatres. Considering how much of a subcultural phenomenon it remains to this day, I'd hold a pretty gnarly grudge too.
Tim was outright stalked by fans in the years following release and fought tooth and nail to move on to the point of similarly refusing to acknowledge it, though he's since mellowed out and recognized its status as a rite of passage of sorts.

The Black Knight; tall, darkly-armored, feared throughout the land...all because of an effective and entirely false smear campaign.

Reply to comment by HendoJay in TIL: WW1 Armistice Day was Nov 11th, fighting was to cease at 11:00 AM. An American solider charged a German machine gun nest with 16 mins left, and died at 10:59 AM. The last soldier to die in WWI. by wats6831
Kinda-sorta, but in that case the movie wasn't missing the point of the book so much as expressly avoiding it and even parodying it.
