3896c: Vietnam-Era Rolling Stones are now considered "Classical Music", as it's 100-years old. So, no, you can't get your 'Nam on without looking like a goofball, unless you're in the Jungle.

Oh my god we've got a virgin! We're referring, of course, to the 1975 cult classic

And here's where I admit that I went to the stage show and still didn't know who Frank-n-furter is.
Simply because I didn't remember that little fact.

With the easter eggs.
Ok, I know you're not supposed to explain the joke, but I'ma explain this one:
[ Spoiler ]
The whole Secret Bonus Features being called "Easter Eggs" thing comes from Rocky Horror - the crew had an Easter Egg hunt on set, and not all of the eggs were found, so some of them made their way into the film, like under the throne Frank sits on in the scene linked above.

Speaking ofNow, I doubt that Rocky Horror originated the term, as that would require significant proof, but given that I can't find an egg older than that, I'll bow to it.

3903 I may not produce Trideo's with titles like "Two Trolls, One Elf", or "Two Ghouls, One Elf".

Reminds me of an idea I had for an initiation (via Masterwork). Using trid-phantasm to make a BTL movie.
That is, you'd use the spell to set up the set and props, then simrig the actors (or even trid phantasm some actors too?)

Some of his more famous works include "One Night in Chicago", "On the Metaplane of Pleasure", "Intercourse with a Vampire" (Which might be an actual thing), "The Well Hung Wendigo", and "Rubber Bum".
I'm sure Brain Bleach was involved after shooting.
