I wanna see this extended back to at least 1980, which was around the peak for nudity and sex scenes in film; after porn was legalized but before internet porn.

Good! it always looks "bolted on", awkward, and doesn't advance the plot

Good. I watch movies to be absorbed by the story, not to see tits.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

I'm definitely not opposed to tits in any situation.

Funny how the peak of sex in movies was right around the time Tommy Wiseau blessed the world with 3 sex scenes the first 30 minutes of one movie.

That man has a glorious ass and anyone who got turned off to sex in movies because of it deserves shame

Should it say mainstream movies since they only compare the top250?

[-] ryan213@lemmy.ca 13 points 3 days ago

Because it's been done so many times and it's mostly just cheesy stuff. There's really no new way to show people having sex in movies/shows.

Sex in movies peaked in Team America. You know the one.

So basically in the ~~distant future year of~~ year 2000 movies mostly had it all?

Like fast food (chains) - products topped with sugar, fats, and salt, so there is no need for actual quality?

I'd argue that it's more that pornography is easily accessible and there's simply not a need or market to titillate audiences like that. You're just alienating potential audience members who might have gone to see it with their kids, because obviously it's okay that they see a city destroyed or people shot in the head fifty times, but who won't buy a ticket because somebody is briefly showing boob.

I'm curious about what, exactly, counts as violence and drugs for this graph though. Is it extreme gore? Any violence at all? Any weed use at all? Drinking?

Usually if it pass the 20 seconds I reach for the keyboard to skip ahead.

I mean, who cares about smushys , I get it you are in love, lets go ahead

[-] yessikg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 3 days ago

And of course violence is way too high, damn puritans!

This person clearly hasn't found out about pornhub yet
