I'm guessing the rise of sex scenes on big budget television/streaming shows played a hand in that.

How many movies even have theme songs anymore?

Like, it was big in the 90's but mostly for Will Smith movies.

Not as much of a point in horny-films when porn is more easily accessible and less taboo than ever before. I've honestly never enjoyed sex scenes in movies so I don't mind this change at all.

I never got the complaint about less sex scenes and nudity in movies. 95% of the time they were just for titillation or shock value and if they were taken out of the movie, nothing would really be affected.

I'm tired of people making it out like people are prudes over this too. I'll just go watch the degenerate, demented porn I like if I want some titillation.

If I want sex scenes I would just watch porn. Too many times I had to fast forward some of these awkward as fuck sex scenes because I want them to continue with the actual plot.

I cannot think of a single movie that has would be made worse by removing a sex scene (excluding those where the narrative is based around sex and sexuality).

yeah, this. Why would i want to watch poorly acted scenes of people pretending to have sex and then have it mean nothing in the greater context of the movie

It likely has a lot to do with the profitability of the sexual themes. Poor Things didn't make much money at the box office and neither did No Hard Feelings.

The simple fact is, mass audiences don't give a shit about overly sexualized films anymore. They may have in the 80's and 90's, but it's the 2020's.

today's movies probably actually show more sex, because in the past they just pretended everyone did it under the covers and never even bothered to take their clothes off

cue classic scene of the morning after where the woman who just had sex with the man next to her completely covers herself for the entirety of the scene

Netflix / HBO originals are borderline softcore porn at this point and overexposure has killed enthusiasm for it.

I've always hated it, especially with HBO. It's like the executives were a bunch of 12 year old boys. So many great shows with random sex scenes shoved in with no purpose but to have tits being shown. I did not need to see Tony Soprano's O-face so much. We get it. He cheats on his wife and gets women because of his status.

Sex used to really be left to horror and b schlock but at some point nudity became more of a prestige thing where actresses would do it to prove they were serious about the art and to please give them an Oscar please. That also ran alongside the PG13ification of horror. Now, apart from porn being a click away, even TV shows have nudity. There was definitely a high point around GoT when execs realized people really wanted to see boobies on TV. Now, It's ubiquitous. It's not shocking or titillating anymore. I can definitely understand the need for it being much less now and people backing away from it.

Probably because most of them sucked.

Go figure people dont want to watch a badly written and acted movie for a 3 minute soft sex scene.
