Do you think in today movies, there are too much sex scene?
In some movie, the sex scene just seem to be thrown in for the heck of having a sex scene. Why? (one movie I remember is "Monster Ball") It just don't go with the storyline.
And when is sex scene become too much? In some movies, they goes as far as showing a rape scene.
Some of the movies I saw that has no sex:
The last Samurai
The Gods must be crazy
Lost in Translation

Two words: it sells

I think lots of movies have pointless sex scenes. What exactly did it add to "Matrix Reloaded" for example. (Not that it's a good movie anyway).
Ugh...the cave rave just before that, combined with the sex scene, made for the worst 10 min of film I've viewed in the last 10 years.

Am I wrong to think that movie is about story? And not about sex? I mean sex that work with the story, that is fine. But the lame one that just throw it in just... waste time.
If I want to see sex, I'll switch to the playboy channel. Or rent those porno movies. There lots of sex scene and everything you'll ever want.
I see more and more shows base somewhat on mostly sex. Like The Mountain and The OC. They are very hot chicks, but when it's too much it kinda become porno.
What about the kids that watch them? Is it just me or does these new shows say "sex" is fun so lets all get f8ck. Kinda like smoking. It's fun, just do it and don't worry about the cancer thing.
Saw that the other day... it was put in there because she and Ethan Hawke had to show they had a trusting relationship going... before what happened at the end of the film. Before the sex scene, there was just a lot of tension between them but nothing happened.Originally posted by: TwiceOver
Yeh I have run into this also. Such as "Taking Lives" sure we get to see some of Angelina, but it seems as though the director was thinking "Crap we're running near the end of the movie, Angelina! get naked."

Do they actually have sex or is it fake?

back in the day when a movie was going nowhere they would throw in a chase scene to save it, hence the term 'cut to the chase'
soon it will be 'cut to the sex'

Wow...just...wow. You're like 17 and very repressed, right? Ever have sex? I hate to burst your bubble, but sex isn't a bad thing. People's motives for having sex can be bad, but sex itself is NOT inherently bad.
Yes, some sex scenes in movies are gratuitous, but there are also gratuitous actions scenes. Depends on the film and the film maker.
The tired thing about "oh god, why won't someone think about the children!" is a little foolish. If you don't want your kids to see it, don't let them watch it. And the idea that people seem A-OK with their kids watching violence but show a breast or a nipple and all hell breaks loose is just foolish.
Lastly...please, for the love of god, add some "s"s into your writing. It's painful to read.

Sex scene in Bound > *
And for the most part, most movies don't need the sex scene, unless the movie is about sex and relationships, etc. I don't get offended by it, but at the same time I kinda want it over, unless its a really pretty actress. Like that girls boobs in 21 Grams. They should have cut out some of the flashbacks and just showed more of her boobies. Then theres the opposite end of the spectrum. Like kathy bates in About Schmidt.

Some of my favorite movies had no sex scene and I thought the romance in it was stronger because of it.

Yeah, that was a great movie. Sad though.
