I'm just surprised it's not Ocean's 20 and the combined salaries of all the women is still less than they paid the main cast of Ocean's 11, before inflation.

GrandpaPants posted:Wasn't Ocean's 12 written during the writer's strike? No, it predated the strike by three or four years. What happened was that Warner Bros. was keen to make a sequel, and Soderbergh and the cast were up for it -- but they were having a terrible time cracking a story. Jerry Weintraub came across a script that Warners had bought from George Nolfi (who would later go on to make The Adjustment Bureau) called Honor Among Thieves. It was actually a really solid script, about an American thief and a European thief who keep trying to one-up each other to prove who can pull off the biggest heist. Anyway, they took the script and told Nolfi to plug all the Ocean's characters into it, which is why it's such a bloated, over-stuffed mess.

Overprotective parents are morons. Humans survived millennia ago when murder and disease and early death and rape were rampant, 30 seconds of tits won't make your kids snap unless your lovely parenting already has them on the edge.

When I was in 10th grade world history class, we watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail, which has boobs and such. I don't think the teacher got in any trouble but I can't remember his name so who knows. It was a pretty cool class. EDIT: I misremembered, there is no actual nudity. So this story is pointless and dumb.

We watched the 60s version of Romeo and Juliet in 9th grade, from way back when you could flash some tits in a PG movie. Nobody got in trouble. Now the PG rating is probably the least represented rating outside of NC-17.

We watched that too, and I'm pretty sure the actress was under 18 on top of everything else.

I figured Hussey just looked really young, like her daughter India who played a 12-year-old when she was 19 in Underworld 4.

My 9th grade english teacher showed us the 90s Romeo + Juliet so we could laugh at it and then the 60s version also she was kinda lazy. Other good school movies: The Great Gatsby (Robert Redford vers.), The Name of the Rose, The Mission, The 13th Warrior (IN MIDDLE SCHOOL! we had to bring permission slips) e: now that I think about it I took an undergrad class on Beowulf where we had out-of-class viewings of some old german adaption of the Volsungs from like the 20s, the cgi Beowulf and the 13th Warrior so that's twice I've sen 13th Warrior in school :O Harime Nui fucked around with this message at 18:58 on Jan 10, 2017 |

He would also go through every question before every test, reviewing the answers, so it was just about impossible to fail a test. Did I mention this was a pre-AP class?
