    "Due to the unsurprising popularity of our “10 Movies Sold on a Sex Scene” list a few weeks back, I’ve decided to unleash a sequel. However, catering to both Spoutblog’s traffic and the interests of ever-abundant sex-attracted internetters is only half my reason for this follow-up list. I was mainly motivated by the outcome of the release of Woody Allen’s Vicky Cristina Barcelona, a film that also initially inspired the first list. While Vicky was partly sold on the promise of a threesome between Scarlett Johansson, Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz, it is now fortunately being celebrated, and it will likely be remembered, primarily for Cruz’s performance. Not for the threesome or for the lesbian kiss. Other movies sold on a sex scene, though, are not typically so blessed with accolades. And even some that are recognized with high praise at time of release are often later forgotten as anything but fodder for MrSkin and other followers of onscreen sex and nudity. Obviously this means t ... " [More]

    "The first time I saw Team America, I knew it was a great comedy, but I was distracted by some of its content. Was it wrong to have a musical number called "Everyone Has AIDS"? Watching the film again, its shock value has gone, which leaves only its satire, which makes it even funnier. This is the greatest American political satire since Dr. Strangelove. In addition to being a statement on the American political mindset, circa 2004, it is also a parody on bad action films, as well as obscure 60's puppet sci-fi like Thunderbirds. That may seem like an odd combination, but everything fits together to form a holistic experience.   " [More]

    "I was standing outside of the movie theater staring at the marquee debating on what other movie to watch other than Team America (which all my friends were there to see).  I did not want to watch the puppet movie, but nothing else was appealing.  Inside the theater, with Icee in hand and my roommate next to me, the sight of the Eiffel Tower being destroyed sent me into a fit.  I was slapping my roommate's leg and banging my head against hers.  During the musical numbers I was singing along.  Between the sex and the puking my ass had to get up just so I could turn around and pound the seat.  Halfway through the movie I wanted the soundtrack.  By the end of the movie I was oligated to own it once it came out on dvd.  Team America is the one film in my collect that I've replaced once, but if I ever have to replace it again because a friend's neglect to return it, that will be the end of me lending my movies.

    "I watched Ten Canoes over the weekend with my wife. I'd say we found it enjoyable. I was expecting something like an aboriginal Escanaba in Da Moonlight, and there were some fart jokes which was nice. The great mediator: intestinal gas. I thought it was a little tiresome after a while to be reminded of the cultural gaps which were obvious and easily plucked from the surface. The storyteller did a delightful job of burrowing into the narrative, but the filmmaker's attempts to do the same often left me wishing for color. I realized from the credits that he was mimicking the photography style of some particular photographer, but the rich colors of the landscape works so much better than the bleached stark black and white, that I regretted it every time. I know he was trying to provide another touchstone to avoid confusion among the deeply nested stories, but really, the storyteller had it covered. It came off like overkill. It's a delicate balance of course. The aborigines ... " [More]
