Kath: My first thought was what sort of parents would agree to let their eight or nine year old girl... ten at the most... mouth such crude dialog or act in such a perverse movie? My father or mother would have slapped me silly if they had ever heard words like that come out of my mouth as a child. Maybe even as an adult.
Hey Buck. This seems to qualify for a new low in film entertainment. I'm going to have to charge you for a new lower plate, 'cause mine broke when my mouth gaped open and hit the desk while watching this. I've also been wondering about the children they use on SVU to portray rape and incestuous activities. Those scenes and lines and behavior cannot be good for them. Are we just preparing our children for a life when they will become overt sex objects? I refuse to join that part of life.
Alison: Yeah... downward spiral is putting it mildly.
Andy: We had parents who were cut from the same cloth. But I found the double-standard interesting, in that Mom could make a sailor blush if she had a mind to. Yet she'd knock me on my butt if I swore.
Uh -- well. Okay, then.
ReplyDeleteYou know how they make a big issue in movie credits about how no animals were harmed in the making of a film, etc., etc?
Don't they maybe have such a thing for kids? 'Cause I'm just wondering how many little hit girls we're going to spawn from this? :(
"God save us."
ReplyDeleteBuck, I'm thinking that we don't deserve to ask.
Jeepers...Just f-in' with you Dad??????
Man...I've got to ponder on this one for a while.

ReplyDeleteAndy: It IS bizarre, innit?

Cat: Yeah, there's a LOT not to like about the state of movies today. I could go on, but I won't.
ReplyDeleteAnd she used the c word.
ReplyDeleteWonderful role model for kids. Just wonderful. As if Paris Hilton wasn't bad enough for girls.
Western culture continues its steady spiral downwards into oblivion
Yeah Buck, when I was about 12 years old, I said "damn" in my mother's presence. She lit up like the White House Christmas tree.
ReplyDeleteI smarted back, "damn is in the Bible." I think I was about 15 when I regained consciousness...
Oh good dear lord. The C word? Are they kidding?

Kris: 'Fraid not...
That looks so unbelievably stupid, I'm surprised it got green-lit.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, Silver.
