Spelling (punctuation/capitalization) of Frank-N-Furter

[edit]

IMDb has Frank-N-Furter at https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073629/ and https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073629/characters/nm0000347?ref_=tt_cl_t1 This page has Frank N. Furter which is linked to redirect page Dr. Frank N. Furter which send us to The Rocky Horror Show which has Frank-N-Furter. King Kong in popular culture has Frankenfurter in what seems to be a reference to The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Duffy Bishop has "the part of Dr. Frankenfurter in The Rocky Horror Show".

Surely all Wikipedia articles should spell & typeset such special (and punning) names consistently and the same as the source. Change others to Frank-N-Furter.

Note Worthy vs. Not Worthy?

[edit]

Would it be pointless to note, cast wise, that the “Transylvanians”, all appear as wedding guests in the opening scene of the marriage of Ralph & Betty? ( For example, the wedding photographer is Henry Wolf, and his assistant is one of the other Transylvanians, as are the elderly couple chasing after the newlyweds; “I always cry at weddings”, etc. ). 75.106.32.81 (talk) 18:37, 26 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IMO, it would be noteworthy. And the fact that Tim Curry is the minister, etc, PLUS the recreation of the American Gothic painting. And Janet's desperate fight for the bouquet. I believe these are really quite key points from the opening scene that have been overlooked.
One of my favourite films, BTW. 77.44.48.159 (talk) 10:22, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
