Hi Rambi,

Concerning movies, I am curious why some people abhor gratuitous sex while uncalled for violence does not seem to bother them. Sex is a pleasurable activity so it does not bother me, but violence thrown in for for the hell of it turns me off. If I recall correctly, Grosse Pointe Blank was in that category, and we didn't finish it..

We never watch horror movies and sometimes we wonder why they are so prolific and accessible. They should have the same ratings and control as the sexually explicit XXX ones IMO..

I guess it boils down to what a person thinks is worse.. Sex or Violence.

I haven't seen "Eyes Wide Shut" so I have no comment.

Take care. Coug

Its a boy thing. Disney reignited Dinosaurmania with Fantasia. The Rite of Spring was also the only part of Fantasia that didn't reek with sexism, racism, satanism, specism, and catholicism.
