Either this stops here or I start with 'SRK is the best actor in the world' discussion!

You've been warned!

I have no problems if you start the topic. Hope the Moderators are keeping a watch.

More points from 2 States movie. Even though Ronit Roy looked as if he had a relatively smaller role. He was good in it. I'm surprising he is playing hero's father these days. I remember he costarring with Ajay Devgn and Akshay Kumar. Both the latter actors are still coming as main lead. However bechara Ronit Roy has already started acting as father to heroes.

The Amazing Spiderman 2 - 6/10

Must watch in 3D and not recommended to watch in 2D. The movie have awesome graphics, camera angles and superb fight scene with Electro. It will immerse you in feeling like Spiderman in 3D. Good Acting from Andrew Garfield and He is the Best Spider-man ever. Electrode played the villain role nicely. Harry & Rhino didn't impressed at all. The story of the movie is crap.

To be frank again when I saw Holy Smoke, like 10-12 years back, Watching Kate nude was a big thing, atleast for me, we were in collage ... :) so yes the prime reason was this, I admit and nothing wrong in it. Heck rewind back 20 years when I (infact we as we all friends saw together) saw Basic Instinct primarily because of steamy scenes and deliberately paused that leg turn scene by sharon stone :D :D ..... at that time watching on VCR and being a teenager all this used to be a huge big deal ..... :), Now all this seems trifle and we just laugh thinking those days.

AFA Nudity goes personally I am okie with it but it seriously seriously depends on the movie screenplay and demand of the emotions. Gracious Nudity is not liked by me, like there was in the movie called Flight Denzel Washington. Power house of a movie, but had a Gracious Nudity scene right during the start of the movie which could have been easily avoided.

I understand but I think basic instinct falls under "erotica" and what you did was perfectly normal.:-D

I was referring to pure cinema (Post#20291). I am sorry If I have confused you or others with that word. What I meant was some of those award winning films or those good films (which can be seen by all if they remove the nude scenes which are not much important). You can consider titanic as an example. I think without that nude scene too it could have won an award.

I hope now you must have got what i was trying to say.:)

Anyways like I said before I respect your views &
From my point of view what I believe is correct & from your point of view you may be right too.

**** Oscars and those politically intrigued awards, without that scene the movie and especially the character of Jack Dawson would not have been explained properly. I think you forgot that he was an artist! You really have some kind of problem, in which I'm not interested at all however, but as I'm interested about discussing about movies I'm bothering to comment here.

If it's about unnecessary nude / sex implied scenes, then right now I can remember the first scene of 12 Years a Slave, that was a totally unnecessary scene IMHO.

The Amazing Spiderman 2 - 7/10 amazing sfx, gr8 background score, awesome action, some good funny scenes, felt a little too long, felt there were too many villains in one movie and they were defeated quickly....all in all a must watch in 3D :D

I have happily put a certain member in the "Ignore list". If I remember correctly many days ago this person was asking for an uncensored version of gulaal. I asked politely what was censored (since I had not seen that movie) to which he replied in a rude manner like "do you live in this country..." something like that. I had asked a simple question.

If you do a little research this guy frequently comments
**** hate indian culture
****oscars
***politics.
****this,******* that....
no doubt his userid describes him perfectly.

I don't know even if he knows what he is posting & he thinks hitting puberty physically means he is mature. I believe in maturity of the mind more than the body.

I gave him enough chances but every time he put some lame baseless argument.

Instead of giving me some strong reasons he was going on insulting my views by asking questions like.
you are okay with male nudity?
(There was no simile hence I take the tone was serious)

Btw out of the whole post he only found that sentence interesting? Really?

To which I would answer again. As a male myself why should I bother much about male nudity & distraction.(I forgot to put the :wink: simile there. I except that & apologize for that)

Then he says
1: You're living
2: In stone age
Why? Not agreeing with him proves that you are not in modern age?

If you see some young girl getting molested by arseholes, I suppose you get aroused by that too?

I got what he wanted to say However he could have put it in a different way.
From the sentence it means he already thinks I do & just wants to confirm it. I preferred to say nothing.

But I would like to answer now.

1. In real life. I don't want to see any such thing happening. Even I don't want to imagine such a thing.

2. In reel life. It takes two paths. Some directors portray it as a frightening incident (eg: girl with the dragon tatoo,I spit on your grave(old one)..etc) & some directors take the liberty to make it a bit artisic. :wink::D First they will arouse you then they will make you feel guilty for it.:D (One good example will be the famous "IRREVERSIBLE" subway rape scene. Here even if you focus on belluci you may enjoy the show for first few mins.:wink: but later when the situation intensifies you really feel sorry for the character and yourself. I think the director in this scene very intelligently managed to unleash the sexual animal inside most of us & then made us realize what damage it could do to us & others. BTW this is not the type of movie you can sit and enjoy with your family unless they are very open minded. Therefore I have nothing against it.)

then he says
You really have some kind of problem, in which I'm not interested at all
Yes he is right I have a problem of NOT agreeing with him. I will even agree with rhitwick that SRK is the greatest actor but not with him.

I would also ask him to go through the anti bollywood thread. There he will find answer to one of his question(If he thinks). As far as titanic is concerned It is one of my favourite movies. Not only because of fictional jack & rose but because of its historical accuracies.
Its a movie which could be very well enjoyed with your family (I put it in pure cinema. which means IT CAN BE SEEN BY ALL If.... post #20340 )

If you just cut the post disrobing scene of rose where she is standing,some of her frontal nudity part when she is lying on the couch & some initial pencil strokes of jack where he is sketching her bosoms & the scene where jack fondles rose's **** inside the car. Thats it.

JACK is an inspiration for rose. Thats why cameron made him an artist. We already know how good jack is at sketching. Art highly depends on imagination too. Rose wanted a nude sketch of her its fine.They could have easily shown it by putting a different camera angle. If cinema also is an art then make the viewers imagine that rose is naked.

We are more interested to see how jack inspires her & the film successfully shows that through dialogues & expressions. Sex is just a bonus.
Moreover the main intention of the film was not to show only the love between rose & jack. They were created so that people could feel the emotions of the passengers of that ship.

I have seen almost all the interviews of cameron regarding this movie, its making & documentaries & cameron's reason for the nude scene did not satisfy me.

Now I don't care what he posts against or for me.


Anyways if any of you guys still have any queries then please ask me. I would be happy to put my views on it. :)

If anything, I'd classify Basic Instinct as a thriller. Someone watching it as an erotica will not enjoy the movie for its story.

Its an erotic thriller. :wink: There are many people who are not at all interested in its story! :D
Thats why they went ahead and made a crap called Basic instinct 2.

[MENTION=15209]quan chi[/MENTION] : Well mate, your last post was so much blabbering, so I'm not quoting that.

And try your best to intrigue others about my user ID, don't think that'll ever happen.

The ironic part of that jibberish jabberish long post was 'you' believe in maturity of mind than the body and yet you have problems with nudity where it is needed, without which a movie is meaningless. It's a rather normal thing among with many other stuffs in a movie, and mainly in REAL LIFE. I don't have a problem with nudity / sex scenes (not all of them) because they are just a reflection of our lives.

You have a problem with that, so that's your ****ing problem, not mine, or anyone else's, kid.

:lol:

I did use a modest method of response with my first reply, you're welcome to go back and check it if that bothers you. But he started to drive crazily after that simple question of mine, which was whether he had a problem with male nudity or not!

I'm not Gandhi, however I respect him but personally I believe in Tit for tat, and always will :)

Being said all this I don't have any personal problem, frustration or anger towards him, or for anyone for that matter, why would I? This is a forum, I don't know any person personally here (other than few), so whatever he / she / bot posts don't make any effect on me. I keep replying to him cause I can't quite get his POV, or you can say that I found his reasons invalid, or better put he failed to validate the reasons. My old parents don't like the idea of sex scenes in a movie, when I asked them why they said it's awkward, to show private things on display in front of everyone, I respect them, cause they grew up in 50 / 60's with a restricted / confined social culture, but they never said that those scenes were unnecessary, or a sex scene or two made a film erotic. I don't have any problem with anyone's personal opinion, I respect that, but I find it disgusting when someone tries to give his personal statement a factual status.

I'll stop here, until the mods step in.
