European art house will feed the streets

I was going to say this. My wife and I watch so many foreign and art-house films that I guess I never really noticed this. We watch a lot of lesbian period pieces too

I noticed this. I remember seeing sex scenes in movies and my parents covering my eyes.

They don’t even show t*ts anymore in movies.

Also notice that most movies aren’t rated R anyway. They are pg13.

Last t*ts I can recall was Halle Berry in Swordfish.

But doesn't that take away from the fun of seeing what actress is doing a sex scene in a movie

 

[Mission249]

I thought for a minute that I had sixth sense for telling whether I'd be able to google an actresses and find nude pics or not.

Then I finally realized the ones I could find nude pics of were older women who were actresses in the 80's and 90's. None of the modern day actresses do any of that stuff anymore.

It's funny: you'd think society's getting more progressive, but in some ways its getting way more conservative.

You sound like an NPR yuppie caricature

Game of Thrones fed the streets that's the last nude scenes I can remember with people who are "stars". I remember back when these young actresses would try to shed their image so you'd see Anne Hathaway gettin turned out at a motel in a direct to DVD joint

 

[Kliq_Souf]

It's all been transferred to TV. And half are gay sex scenes. Seems like every Netflix show has to have a gay sex scene. Smh.

Truth.... Most nudity i see now, be girl on girl action

@hex or @Jax Can 1 of y'all edit the thread title? The article is actually from The Washington Post.

Come to think of it, what was the last big sex scene in a premier film?

Inherent vice with katherine waterston was the last one I remember
