It's been discussed a lot in recent years that not only are there fewer sex scenes, but less sexual tension in general in movies: https://amp.theguardian.com/culture/2023/feb/15/sex-scenes-penn-badgley-denial-basic-desire https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-new-yorker-interview/the-sex-scene-is-dead-long-live-the-sex-scene What are your thoughts? --- *insert sig here* ...

Because of how much everyone feels afraid to offend someone or another it does feel like there's a loathing of sex and even romance, hell some really think that its best to just go back to arranged marriages because" All love is a sham anyway and in the end that's a more realistic take on what relationships are anyway." ...

I remember in Netflix early original shows, almost evert show had to have some unnecessary sex scene, because I guess they get away with it? Even a lot of the Amazon Prime Original Pilots had that as well. Honestly, I'm more of the "get to the point" in terms of plot and many times sex scenes tend to be filler. Rarely do they play a pivotal role. Most of the time it's because it's edgy to have it. --- DI MOLTO! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Meh, it's all so toothless now it's hardly worth filming. Meanwhile there's literally *thousands* of hidden exploitation gems from the 70s and 80s, and I'm having a blast finding and watching them. Just saw the Roger Corman classic Humanoids From the Deep last night, for instance. It's about mutants coming out of the water and, uh, forcibly mating with the women of the town. And it's directed by a woman. A total product of its time that would never be made today, and that's okay. --- It's called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it. - George Carlin ... Copied to Clipboard!
