“Did you hear the one about the Jew, the Catholic, and the colored-eye Latina who went to heaven?”

”that’s a doozy Judge.”

I asked the owner of the first company I worked for out of college what were keys to starting a business. “First, you gotta have a good colored eye…”.

I wonder how this Marilyn movie turns out in the end. Of course it was Bobby Kennedy that had her murdered, but who administered the phenobarbital suppository? Peter Lawford? The shrink? The housekeeper? Certainly they won’t show the usual chugging champagne and nembutals?

Love, Both Blue is the Warmest Color and 365 Days are/were in Netflix and none got NC17 ratings. So what exactly does it take to get over that hump to get that rating? Blue had pretty long scenes with lots of boobs and faces all the way up asses, and Love I think showed an “artistic” money shot at the end of one sex scene if I remember right.

Those were foreign films and weren’t rated by the mpaa.  Nymphomaniac was also on Netflix.

This movie is garbage. Like a film student desperately trying to pass his final exam by throwing every trick in the book on screen, yet unable to render anything more than a superficial, one dimensional story. As shallow as you can imagine.  It’s not interesting, it’s not entertaining, and despite being singularly focused on her sex life and male desire (for lack of a better word), it’s not hot in the least. 

I can’t believe this same guy directed The Assassination of Jesse James.  Just google the tit pics and save yourself the 3 hours of torture.

It is everything you said. I thought it was just starting slow. My wife didn’t even get the color and B&W changes. The whole thing felt forced and lame. They made her so much less hot than she is somehow. It’s fucking criminal.

Pretty much sums it up. The people at the Venice Film Festival who reportedly gave it a 14-minute standing ovation must really be starved for good entertainment. 

And I understand the (limited) liberties that are can be taken with these type films but there was a good deal of time spent on the threesome thing. Unfortunately, it was a good deal of time spent on something that never happened.

Wait... threesome thing?  Do you have a timestamp?

I’ve heard tits, threesome, Marilyn Monroe and Ana De Armas and you’re telling me, I shouldn’t watch this movie?

What are things I didn’t expect to read on Surly today?

Right? I can't imagine how somebody could fuck that combination up. I'm now more tempted to watch it, just to see how it could be done. Who directed this thing, Pete Kwiatkowski?

I haven’t seen it, but it appears the NYT agrees with Woodcock and Imma 

Given all the indignities and horrors that Marilyn Monroe endured during her 36 years — her family tragedies, paternal absence, maternal abuse, time in an orphanage, time in foster homes, spells of poverty, unworthy film roles, insults about her intelligence, struggles with mental illness, problems with substance abuse, sexual assault, the slavering attention of insatiable fans — it is a relief that she didn’t have to suffer through the vulgarities of “Blonde,” the latest necrophiliac entertainment to exploit her.

Not worth it....If looking for a trifecta, they really liked to give you a multiple dose of abortion scenes.

Do yourself a favor and take the advice of not watching. See below.

You've been warned by others... Long and depressing. Better off taking a hammer and smashing your thumbs, repeatedly. Or just watch Pete's defensive scheme of bend and break.

I knew it was gonna be shitty from the trailer. There was nothing interesting about it to me. I'm always confounded by people that get so excited about seeing someone naked during a movie. That's what the fuck porn is for. I wanna be entertained, not turned on. If i wanted to be turned on, i would watch porn. Not to say nudity in a movie or show can't be good or tasteful, but it's far from being *the reason* that you should watch or be interested in something.

Oh come on.  It's the mystery that makes it appealing.  Are there thousands of porn stars with better bodies than Jennifer Anniston?  Yes, but it doesn't mean I'm not intrigued to see her nekkid.

Blue had straight up porn scenes. Sex scenes that served no real purpose to the story other than, "Look at these hot chicks fucking for the next ten minutes."

Which is fine because the story was ass.

Naturally, I got curious and went looking for the scene y'all were discussing above. Overhead ceiling camera of hange-induced money shot. So, basically porn. Hey, I'm all for it. There's also the not-simulated BJ scene with Chloe Sevigny from Brown Bunny. No money shot (visible anyway) there, though.
