It's just too easy. Every freak Hollywood producer is furious all the time that they can't bully young actresses into showing their boobs on screen because it's just not financially viable. Dick and balls really challenges them.

Also you should see Poor Things. Has boobs and is about a woman brought back to life by giving her a baby brain and then she goes on adventures that are a metaphor for Victorian feminism and she gets really into socialism without ever discussing anything socialist.

I do want to see this movie actually but it's in theaters and I have kids (plural)

Anyway "it's easy but they can't do it because the suits won't let them" is kind of self-contradictory logic

The market disincentives it and a hypothetical law giving the weird freaks what they want over giving them a monkey paw wish isn't very contradictory. A little but not very.

Also bummer, we saw it at the new Alamo. It's fine! The theater, movie was great. They gave her a baby brain!

For the record btw I think boobs no longer being in movies is an effect of society becoming cleaner and smoother and more puritanical and more risk-averse, not a cause of it

I still think it's literally just because of internet porn means there's no longer any point in putting three seconds of boobs in a movie so desperately horny dudes will rent it just for that

Anyway we're visiting in-laws and might get a chance to actually see a theater movie but are probably using it on American Fiction

American Fiction is better. Sterling K Brown eats it up. Way better at getting its message across.

Yeah as much as Poor Things looks very cool and is my kind of poo poo (steampunk, Emma Stone, Willem Dafoe, boobs) it definitely seems like American Fiction is a better film on the merits

For sure see Poor Things at some point, and if you like it, also watch The Favourite and The Great
or if you already have seen and like the other two things, expedite seeing Poor Things

for sure, most of the output from the period is definitely unwatchable softcore porn junk but theres some wildly inventive work to be mined from it. also often the only way to get anticop, antifascist or antiamerican sentiment to play on the big screen.

The Great not at all, it's a thorough deconstruction of both the aristocracy and "Westerner enlightening the savage east" trope

Yeah, the thing that got me is one bit where the characters watch a gay gangbang porno but the thing is shot so you never seen a cock or even a naked butt. Nearly all the regulars, who literally live in Hell and according to the first episode see worse than that walking down the street, react like they're watching something incredibly depraved and upsetting. A raunchy comedy is about how great excess is but the show seems weirdly repressed about it all.

Speaking of adult animation, you see more genuine love of sex on Blue Eye Samurai, and that's a show specifically about repression.

In a shocking! twist! the main sex advocate on the show has actually been pretending the entire time, because he can't admit to anyone else that he's a sex addict who's regularly getting assaulted. Don't worry, he's gonna work really hard on that now so he can get into Heaven. Or something, like a lot of the show it's all a bit unclear. Maybe they clarify what's actually going on but that's when I stopped watching.

Obliterated was downright refreshing with the equal amount or even greater amounts of dong flashes. Except for that one scene. You know the one.

I think there was a time 15ish years ago when normal people were first spending a lot of time online that everyone was pretty honest. it wasn't a perfect slice of what society was up to because some people posted everything they did and some people more or less lurked, but there was a lot of casualness.

now that everyone has hundreds-thousands of fb friends and ig followers (i.e. a shitload of strangers), everything is a performance or advertisement. everything is subject to history searching by employers and enemies. everything has to be a hot take because it's the only thing that gets traction in the algorithm. most people don't like those sorts of stakes in their idle posting, so all that private conversation shifted to group chats and discords with manageable numbers of people.

this all happened really quickly, since 2016 or so, and people like grrm are still struggling with the whiplash of how quickly the public social internet died.

There were alot things that were better then but it was a lot meaner and there some awful poo poo you had to scroll thru just to talk about some nerd poo poo that I prefer not hearing ppl's thoughts about minorities or women or what the gently caress. That's an improvement.

E: and you couldn't say anything or otherwise be labeled the f word or whatever. It was exhausting and it sucked, especially as a minority.

The latest episode of Expats (very not CSPAMy) has Jack Huston run up and down a corridor with his cock waving around.

It's funny because for the first half of that scene Huston's been blocked so it looks like he's only gonna show his butt, but then he has a full breakdown and welp, time to whip the cock out.

It's a reaction as much as anything. TV show makers rejoice in their newfound freedom for a while like anyone else. Testing boundaries and getting attention for doing things people aren't used to.

Also don't forget Dr Manhattan's swinging blue dong
