Madkal posted:I remember being shocked (well shock isn't really the right word I would use, maybe delighted) by the amount of nudity in 80's movies. It always seemed to be out of the blue as well. Because like all things the MPAA is a political organization and in the time before the social conservative resurgence in the 80s nudity and violence in film were judged in context. It was even possible for a non-R rated film to have nudity provided it was not sexual. Now however any nudity in a film will earn you an R so directors push the limit as much as they can, because why not? We've reduced people to a collection of parts, some being acceptable for display and some not, but by being so specific we've made society more sexual since as long as you don't show a woman's nipples or anyone's exposed genitalia it's ok to show in public! vvv IIRC Cameron only got that in by basically having the studios call in an appeal. vvv Gynocentric Regime fucked around with this message at 08:51 on Jan 8, 2016 |

I think Titanic was the last PG-13 movie I saw that had nudity in it.

She didn't need to get permission from anyone because it was all 17- and 18-year-olds. My high school law teacher showed us all advanced stage venereal disease pictures one afternoon. Sorry, gramps.

Apparently there is a PG version of Excalibur and and an edited version of Romeo and Juliet. Good thing because I lived in the religious south and it just takes one "concerned" type to have a poo poo for.

Re: the Netflix hiphop thing - I really want to like that, but I can see Luhrmann's artwankery all over it and it puts me off. Interesting that he's cast a total unknown as Grandmaster Flash, though.

I know they've chopped that scene up for the teaser and there's almost certainly more dialogue at that point than just those two lines but that was pretty weird, unless they're going to do a whole bunch of scenes where Superman just stands around thinkin' 'bout stuff and then Batman Kramers in and says a random non sequitur line, in which case it's awesome.

The scene in the teaser is the first time they meet. Batman is just pissed that Super Man-Standing-In-The-Middle-Of-The-Street wrecked his loving car.

That Elvis and Nixon movie looks real bad, and that's coming from a guy with immeasurable love for Spacey and Shannon. It looks like a bad TV movie.

Batman kramers in the door and just keeps kramering, sliding off around the room, bouncing against walls. he kramers against your toilet, busting it up big time. you get the feeling he's trying to say something to you but he's kramering at such a high velocity you just can't quite make it out. as he finally nails a window and falls out you think you hear him exclaim "I'm a superhero, that's what's so CRAZY about this" on the way down

Right, it's a movie about Batman learning to get down with Superman, so it makes sense he'd be all backed up at the beginning.

I mean like some arguments in favor of Prometheus center on David being the viewpoint character and finding great amusement in the petty, hubristic follies of most of the human cast, which can be easy to mistake for "it's great because it's a piece of poo poo!" if, perhaps, you're willfully dense
