There is porn now. Everyfuckingwhere. For free. So much porn. Niche porn. Hardcore porn. Fetish porn. You don't have to jerk off to a lingirie catalog like we did when we were kids. Or sneak National Geographic magazines to see boobs. Sex in movies is just sad, stupid, and often unnecessary tittilation.
Dunno. There are better sources too look for sex. Watching a movie with your mates is just awkward.
Also not a teen, but as an asexual person I’ve been wishing for that for a while now.
I always thought there should be more going to the restroom scenes.
Immediately thinking of Pulp Fiction
it's at an all time low. idk how less it could get.
Just do like, a sexy handshake, and move on.
I can't think of a single sex scene in a movie that added value to it. They're pointless and akward to both the audience and actors.
Long shot
Other poster had a ~~good~~ only example.
Team America world police
Team America World Police is the only movie that's ever gotten the sex scene right.
MacGruber?
I promise. I’ll never die.
I'm not a teen (far from it), but I'm with the kids on this one. The vast majority of sex scenes in movies are awful. They're awkward and totally unrealistic. It completely takes you out of the movie. Most sex scenes are not engrossing or engaging, they don't immerse you in the story, they push you out of it.
Most every sex scene feels like it was made by someone who's never had sex. Every angle is the right angle, every thrust is ecstasy, it's nonsense. It's like someone who thinks the covers of romance novels are depictions of real life.
There are a lot of intimate moments that can be portrayed convincingly enough on film, but sex is rarely one of them. And it's just not necessary. Let the audience infer, let us use our imaginations.
C'mon, didn't you wanna see Oppenheimer reach criticality?
And no one is laughing or having a good time. It's always some serious ass business.
I agree, every sex scene looks like something that is not how people have sex. Except for the guy in office space https://youtu.be/JNVqMgCAHmk. That sex was real.
One point to disagree on: less teens than ever are having sex, and with no actual experience, their imaginations are based on porn. No wonder they're terrified of it, if their first impression is what comes up when you Google "boy girl have sex".
I have a friend who's dated a bit but has never really had a boyfriend. I think she gives up too soon because she expects a Hallmark movie where everything's perfect and every kiss is magical.
It's because kids are staying home with mom and dad much later and you know how uncomfortable everyone in the room gets when there's a bang scene.
