Good idea for a list. I think Rocky Horror could find a home here, no?

Well, I consulted my official "scene" expert, and she thinks that Rocky Horror has somewhat fallen out of vogue. I think Hedwig has sorta taken its place.

Well I'm certainly no scene expert, but I do believe Rocky Horror is still bigger than Hedwig in college circles. Meh. Knowing my friends... we're probably completely out of it.

I think I may have missed something here. Could you elaborate on what you mean by "Scene" instead of "seen". I assume you mean movies defined by a scene or scenes, but I'm not sure.

I hope it's a little used tactic on Listology to ignore someone asking a question, twice. You're the first member I've found who's unapproachable. Hat's off, my friend!

I'm so sorry Dr. Jimmy! I wasn't trying to ignore you. I've been very busy recently, and I hadn't had time to reply. I was trying to find a way to phrase my answer, but homework and college applications were distracting me.

To answer your question, "scene" movies are movies that are now considered either cool or must-see by the under 30 music crowd. Those who attend shows frequently, or are just deeply into youth pop culture. Sorta what the new cult movies are gonna be.

Sorry for the delay.
