not sure how to reconcile "scenes that don't advance the plot should be cut" with this subforum's love of david lynch, who probably has one of the highest pointless scenes-to-plot ratio of all time

There is no nudity or sex in movies anymore because as a society we've become intensely prudish in this weird accepting way. Like you can have any kind of relationship you want, you can gently caress whoever you want in any way you want, you can watch any porn you want to see at any time of the day, but we can't actually show sex in our cultural depictions. It's like horrible boob comedies from the 80's are on one end of the spectrum and 1950's cut to curtains waving in the wind sex scenes are on the other end, and we're way on the curtains end

There has to be a way where it's okay to show sex and naked people in movies or tv and it be positive and fun, not awful and horrible and exploitative

The Cut of Your Jib posted:He says Lucas called him but he would only direct if he could write the script too. on one end i want to blame the writers for making marvel movies from allegedly good directors bad and forcing them to resort to well that just happened gags to deal with how obviously terrible the script is but on the other end nearly every egregiously bad marvel bit i can think of has a decent joke at its center they just stretch it out for two minutes instead of leaving it at an actually appropriate quip length of two seconds it reminds me a lot of nu simpsons of all things

The death of sex scenes has more to do with wanting movies to be as broadly viewable as possible than anything else - el problema en es capitalismo

good sex scenes keep the momentum. two people learn about eachother, open up, learn something about themselves, there's stakes, goal/obstacle. there's tension - the audiences know things could go good or go bad bad sex scenes are just two characters who already like eachother loving and then they still like eachother and nothing advances. same as any dialogue or action or musical scene - if its cuttable and you wouldn't know it's missing, then cut it Lynch has good sex scenes in I think every movie he makes edit: not the straight story or elephant man. or dune?

At least the curtains waving looks pretty and leaves things to the imagination It's like with smoking, they spent so long basically making 2 hour cigarette commercials that going the other way was a drastic but understandable move.

The fact that music is still horny as hell definitely points to corporate consolidation in visual media being a pretty big culprit here Speaking of which, https://twitter.com/qweermudgeon/status/1575691713246478338?t=f9RPcWFRWwLibctj2qjV2w&s=09
