[Edited for clarity.]

And in this morning's random trivia question, I was asked to explain Rocky* to someone who has never seen it but has heard about it (Cameron), and someone who has never heard about it (Knight).

Why me?

*Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Rocky as in.. the movies? I saw the end of Rocky 2 a few nights ago. No need to see more, really.

But... boxing? I read about how they did the shooting for the final fight (the rounds in reverse order, with Stallone and whoever played Creed in heavy makeup, nad then removed the makeup for each previous round) and that's cool, but...boxing? I don't get it- I really really don't.

Exactly.

And not only has Knight not heard of RHPS, he hadn't heard of Meat Loaf, either.

...its just a jump to the left...

Its a coming of age musical about a young man, his fiancee and their night of madcap adventure in a castle occupied by a beautiful transvestiet mad-scientist, his creature and staff.

... what's so hard to explain about that!?

I mean, its not like its some kind of audio-vibratory, physiomolecular transport device now is it!?

They were wondering why it's a cult movie.

...because it's soooooo bad, that's the only thing it could be.
