Sex Addicts: Your thoughts about the movie 'Shame'

[Morcheeba]

I literally cringed when he threw away all that good porn.

And why did he get snubbed from a Best Actor nom? Even Clooney at the Golden Globes walked out doing an impressionation of what it must be like to have a penis as big as his while playing golf (arms behind his back, just swinging side to side).

never seen it (well, not yet anyway. god bless tpb), but i'm guessing the nc-17 rating had something to do with it.

Yeah, guess that's the theory.

Why is it you have no contact info attached to your profile? I was gonna be nice and send you a sweet, virus-free link to it that you could watch tonight.

 

[pointless]

because people talk too much shit.

but i almost have it now, so thanks anyway.

 

[Morcheeba]

Okay...

Welcome, then.

It's not thee best of films and takes some nursing at first, but eventually kicks in and gets you by the clit and balls. Am a new fan of Michael Fassbender, not because of his cock, but because of his acting chops. He's German/Iris, btw.

honestly, it was the gay sex and lesbian sex keywords that forced me to download it. so rare to see both listed in the same movie unless it's cheap gay indie and those don't generally get 8's on imdb. they usually get 5's at best and most of the time even those are overly generous.

 

[pointless]

ooohhh! and carey mulligan. how the fuck did i miss that?

 

[pointless]

that was the saddest blowjob ever.

also, i don't get why that was rated nc-17. yeah, there was sex; yeah, it was dark, but fuck that. that was not an nc-17 movie. fucking prudes.

George Clooney in a good movie?

What next?

I don't think I'm a sex addict, but I loved Shame and found it to be quite emotional.

Check out Steve McQueen's other movie, also starring Michael Fassbender: Hunger

 

[KRCummings]

Haven't seen it and probably won't. Doesn't appeal to me at all.

I've heard a lot of people bitching about Fassbender not getting nominated though. I guess that's a bummer for him although this year there seem to be quite a few worthy actors that didn't make the cut. Somebody has to be left out.

This is a movie that I need to see. I hadn't heard too much about it, being in the prudish Midwest and all.

 

[Joeybagadonuts]

I'll never forget that little blonded haired boy at the end crying "Come back Shame."

 

[pointless]

and carey mulligan was goodness. i'm liking her more and more and not just because i think she's hot. well, okay, that is a big part of it, but the girl is also pretty good. i still find it weird that the first thing i ever saw her in was doctor who.

 

[firenzi]

There's less sex in it then you might think. At least there was less than I had expected.

 

[pointless]

there's very little considering the subject. it seriously should not have been nc-17. i wouldn't be surprised if the gay bj was the main issue with the mpaa. they have a known bias when it comes to homosexual content.

 

[firenzi]

Violence and Disney prostitots are a-okay, but we need to protect teenagers from the sight of a penis

I did a quick look and couldn't find a reason given other than "sexual content."
Of course it's almost always sexual content for an NC-17 so big surprise there.

eh. maybe i'm just too jaded by porn, but when compared to some shit i've seen from the seventies that didn't get slapped with the old x rating shame seems kinda tame. of course, we are definitely more conservative in a lot of ways then we were back then, so maybe the comparison isn't exactly fair.

 

[Super-Surprise]

Everyone should be entitled to at least one "Mulligan" in life!

 

[Morcheeba]

Everyone should be entitled to at least one "Mulligan" in life!

Watching her brilliance in 'An Education' and then once more in 'Shame' - well, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

What I mean is, she only proves what a reeeeeally good actress can do.

And why no sex addicts respond to this thread of mine?

 

[Morcheeba]

Oh knock it off with the I haven't seen it and probably won't and then you pop in to state that you took a peak to explain the NC-17 stuff.

Something appealed to you, duh.
