Okay, even after all the years since I've seen this movie, that one bugs me etymologically speaking.BridgeConsoleMasher wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2024 11:36 pm Seems like Simon Phoenix has finally matched his meet. We really licked his ass.

This is a woman who thinks regular penetrative sex is disgustingly barbaric and causes her to completely freak out just thinking about it. I'm sure ass-to-mouth is a concept that's never even crossed her mind.stellar_coyote wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 8:18 am Unless the words "lick" and "ass" have changed so drastically in the future that there's no way in God's green earth that stringing those two together doesn't conjure up going ass-to-mouth, Huxley really should've put some thought into what she was going to say before saying it.
Well the film does start off in the near future with LA on a rampant decline.Nobody700 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 7:52 pm I really like this film but I do have one problem with it
It shoulda been 80 years. I just don't buy the world became like this in JUST 20 years (yes he was frozen for about 40 but they mentioned a big thing happened in the middle). Everyone is just WAY too old to be like this, especially those who are Spartan's age.
It's not a pet peeve problem, it's one I keep on coming back too when I think of the film. Besides that, good film.
That doesn't discount what I said, like I said, how is everyone like this and acts like Spartan's stuff is CRAZY when a lot of them are Spartan's age and some look to have been kids when society starting changing, meaning they were born before the big fall. Dunno, it's WEIRD to me.BridgeConsoleMasher wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 8:58 pmWell the film does start off in the near future with LA on a rampant decline.Nobody700 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2024 7:52 pm I really like this film but I do have one problem with it

No, I was joking. And at the moment I'm tending to agree. The people are completely nerfed, though really it's not as if it's impossible between two generations. Not only is that the issue though, but this is just Los Angeles, and it's not as if California and the rest of the world just forgot about it and people stopped going to it like the millions of people that do from all over the world who cuss and do drugs etc...Nobody700 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 01, 2024 3:38 amThat doesn't discount what I said, like I said, how is everyone like this and acts like Spartan's stuff is CRAZY when a lot of them are Spartan's age and some look to have been kids when society starting changing, meaning they were born before the big fall.

That woman might have been naked, but that might have been the extent of any expected encounter.McAvoy wrote: ↑Mon Jul 01, 2024 10:50 pm I agree. It should have been a bit further in the future for a society like this to be this fully formed the way it is.
I am actually surprised Chuck skipped over the one bit of nude scene in the movie. The video call Spartan got after he got kicked out of Huxley's place for suggesting good ole' old fashioned sex. The video call of a near naked woman. Which does fly in the face of what we just saw. Implications of it would be interesting. Some have called it a plot hole.
