Titty Titty Bang Bang
Matt and I went to see Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang last night. Now I love me some Robert Downey Jr. (those eyes, that nagging drug problem!) and Val Kilmer (so witty, yet so puffy!) but at the risk of sounding - gasp! - old, I have a bone to pick:
Why so many titties?
I have no problem with titties, really I don't. I do have a problem with the fact that EVERY WOMAN IN THE ENTIRE MOVIE had to show them. Damn, ya'll, I started wishing for some hiking boots to go with all those mountains. Then, just to keep things interesting, they decided to throw in some muff.
MUFF!
It even got its own close-up! But was there any man-meat? No. Where were the buns, hun? Nowhere. Why? Because bringing out the trouser snake gets you an NC-17. But fur pie is fine. (I can see the meeting now: "It won't be gratuitous muff! We'll make it a PLOT POINT! That way we can show it over and over! Hey, let's make the titties a plot point too! Nah, let's just show 'em.")
That's it. I'm picketing for shlong.

Thanks for the review, Alisha. I've put it on my list!
DOWN WITH TITTY UP WITH SCHLONG!!!!
I went to see Capote last night, and there wasn't a single naked boob in the entire movie. What's the point? Why make a movie at all? I was weeping with frustration by the time the lights came up.
I have to agree with kpolly. I mean, the male member is, to quote Robin Williams, "a ridiculous piece of flesh."
Plus, cinema is unfortunately a male dominated arena still. Look at your typical porn and tell me a woman had ANY say in how it was filmed. And though "real" movies don't want to associate with such low-brow entertainment, they do follow the same basic formulas.
Except for "The Piano," that is. (Ted shudders uncontrollably at the thought of Harvey Keitel's naked arse over and over and OVER.)
All that being said, I am totally going to have to see KKBB now...
