Nighthawk Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 You know, I like Brendan Fraser, and I love Jet Li, and I like mummies and Chinamen, but I still don't want to see that movie.
At Home Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Dude, "Chinamen" is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian-American, please.
Nighthawk Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Please. It was an effort not to say "Chink".
Nighthawk Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Ever see The Big Lebowski? I was initially just going to go for a straight ahead Don't Be a Menace quote, but eh... Ya'll got to stop using the word nigger. You see, it's terms like the word nigga that the white man uses to take away the self esteem of another race. Oh yeah, remind me to pick my laundry up from that chink motherfucker up the street. Heh... You ain't so tough now, little nigga. I hate you black bastards, you stink! I hate your black skin. I hate your black pants. I hate black pepper. I hate black keys on a piano. I hate my gums, cause they black. I hate Whoopi Goldberg's lips. I hate the back of Forrest Whittaker's neck. Most of all, I hate that black-ass Wesley Snipes.
Matt Young Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 That Jingus likes him some X-Files. Who doesn't? Even if the show hadn't been great, which it was (I know this is all beside the point, but bear with me) has anyone else seen Gillian Anderson's topless scenes in that one movie no one's ever heard of from 2007? Dream come true. Most of all, I hate that black-ass Wesley Snipes. Because of my complexion, he use to call me Darkness. He calls me and brother Darkness. The Darkness Brothers. See, this is long before Wesley Snipes. Back then... we was the blackest niggas on the planet according to Rick James.
Jingus Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 That Jingus likes him some X-Files. No, I stopped watching it in like the third season. I got tired of the endless alien-government conspiracy crap that never got resolved. I was just trying to make the point that it's probably not going to lose money at the box office, as Bob seemed to be implying. Thirty-five million isn't a huge amount for a movie to take in these days. has anyone else seen Gillian Anderson's topless scenes in that one movie no one's ever heard of from 2007? Dream come true. You mean Straightheads? As in, the rape-revenge flick where she gets reamed like Jodie Foster on a pinball machine? The one where you do briefly see her breasts, but in appallingly unsexy situations? Yeah, seen it, felt queasy afterwards.
Nighthawk Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 What kind of person wouldn't get turned on by rape? That makes no sense to me.
Nighthawk Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Alright, that was kind of a fucked up statement... but it's like, it's sex and violence. We all know every girl fantasizes about being raped. Hell, I'd love to rape someone. I wouldn't, because that's hurtful. But in the sense of fantasy, it's fine. And that was a fake movie. There's nothing more erotic than watching a girl you're attracted to become the victim of sexual violence when you know she's not really being hurt. Or... maybe I'm alone here.
Jingus Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Firstly, uh, yeah, I don't think I've ever had any girl ever once tell me that she fantasizes about being raped. On the flip side, I've known several girls who have been raped, and they certainly didn't seem to regard it as sexy. As for Gillain Anderson's sweater muppets in Straightheads? It's not during the rape scene. It's once on a video screen when some perv is peeping on her, and again in a sex scene which never quite gets started and quickly devolves into a bunch of impotence and crying. So, not sexy.
Nighthawk Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Yeah, I haven't actually seen the movie, so I'm talking out of my ass, probably. But no, real rape is not sexy, I wasn't saying that.
Jingus Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 You'd be disappointed, it's not some sort of I Spit On Your Grave or Irreversible type atrocity. It's what they call Tastefully Done, you don't see much of the event itself. There really is Type A and Type B nudity in movies. Type A is "HEY, LOOKIT DEM TITTIES" where the camera pretty much ogles the flesh and which is clearly sexploitive: like Halle Berry in Swordfish, Gwenyth Paltrow in Shakespeare in Love, Kate Winslet in Titanic, and probably every movie playin on Cinemax right now. Type B is when the moviemakers deem the nudity is necessary for the story, but are actively trying not to film it in a sexy way. Examples of that would be like when they took Madeline Stowe's shirt off so they could give her those electric paddle thingies to restart her heart in The Abyss, the breif look at topless Meryl Streep on a website in Adaptation, any graphic childbirth scene, and that kind of thing. The most common one is any sex scene where they wanted to keep a sense of realism and so didn't film it in the standard porno kind of way, but also don't make the actors pretend to hump under the covers or while still fully clothed or whatever. So while you might see her tit, you probably see it for like half a second, near the edge of the screen, and in dim lighting; like Keira Knightly in The Jacket. Anyway, point I took too long to make, Gillain Anderson in Straightheads is very much Type B nudity.
HollywoodSpikeJenkins Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Firstly, uh, yeah, I don't think I've ever had any girl ever once tell me that she fantasizes about being raped. You don't know that many girls then.
Jingus Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Please don't go down this incredibly misogynistic road. "All girls really wanna be raped." Jesus almighty.
Ripper Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Rape fantasy and wanting to be raped are two different things. Every girl that has gotten EXTREMELY comfortable with me and would tell me anything have told me that they have that fantasy, but would never want it to happen.
Nighthawk Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Yeah, that's the same as how I want to rape somebody, but would never actually do it (couldn't, to tell you the truth). That's just sex fantasy, it's not misogyny. I'm actually kind of surprised you've never heard that. I like how a discussion of the weekend box office take has turned into "women: are they asking for it?"
bob_barron Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 celebritymoviearchive has topless Scully pics from her movies
Twisted Intestine Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Submissive girls fantasize about being raped, dominant girls fantasize about doing the raping.
Yuna_Firerose Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 I like how a discussion of the weekend box office take has turned into "women: are they asking for it?" Smart Marks: We bring you the hardcore discussions. Even in a topic they don't belong.
LaParkaMarka Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 You'd be disappointed, it's not some sort of Irreversible type atrocity. Well, I'm definitely disappointed. Irreversible was great.
The Niggardly King Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 thats the one where bellucci gets it in the ass, right? great fuckin' movie.
Spaceman Spiff Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Nobody tell MikeSC about this thread. Also, Gillian Anderson was hotter w/ the shorter hair. I'm not feeling the long hair she's rocking in the new X-Files movie. I'll probably end up seeing it in the theater.
cbacon Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 Though the trailer doesn't look that great, i'm hoping XF2 makes enough to warrant a third movie so they can wrap up the the alien colonization storyline that's suppose to take place in 2012
fazzle Posted July 24, 2008 Report Posted July 24, 2008 With the Tuesday estimates in, Dark Knight is already over $200 million, hitting it in just 5 days. That SHATTERS the old record of 8 days to $200 million, which was previously held by PotC 2, Spidey 2, and SW Episode 3
cabbageboy Posted July 24, 2008 Report Posted July 24, 2008 Anyone know what the deal is with The Dark Knight's overseas business? I saw on boxofficemojo.com that it's made 41 million so far, but is it just being released slower or what? Just not updated?
