"Honestly, nudity does nothing for a film. Can anyone really name a movie, besides porn, that nudity has helped further the story? That wasn't just in the film to say, hey look there's someone's tit?"
Okay, I didn't read every post, but did anyone say: Basic Instinct, when she flashes her hooha? -

I think that there are movies where nudity is absolutely appropriate to the story, and there are some easy (non-titillating) cheats for using nudity to convey certain emotional aspects of a character. However, I do think that
Basic Instinct
is not an appropriate example of this. Nor is the language used in trying to use it as an example very mature. -

The nudity in this film is integral to the film. -

Freddy Vs Jason was ok, fun watch but will never be an elite horror flick.
But her comments were idiotic.
Besides New Nightmare look at the last few Elm St. flicks, look at the last few Jason movies.
Now with that and the movie is Freddy Vs Jason; I think it's fairly obvious what kind of movie it will be.
Both franchises stopped trying to scare the audience a long time ago. Was she really execting a legit, scary and suspesneful movie?
If anyone thought it would be well no comment. -

To111c put Katie's complaints into context one has to look at the history of how she got the job in the first place.
Katie's agent was contacted by the producers and she was asked to audition for the LEAD.
When she went to the audition they told her they didn't want her for the lead, but for the role of Gibb.
In short they lied to her to get her to go to the audition in the first place!
Then, after she reluctantly accepted the role, and had pointed out that the nude scenes were a non-starter (both the shower and the jumping up and down on the guy in bed are body-doubled), they insisted she was to do the nude scenes.
So Katie had a running battle with the director for a number of days.
On top of that, Katie was guilty of not having watched either a Freddy or a Jason movie. In her defence, she has always said she is a 'hiding behind the couch at the gory scenes, girl'. And so Katie only saw one, on a borrowed portable DVD player,when in makeup (onset)on the first day of principal shooting; needless to say she was disappointed.
So, yes it is true that Katie really should have done some research before even accepting to go for the audition; in which case one suspects she may well not have taken ANY role in the movie.
On the other side of the coin, her comments were spot on as regards the quality, or rather the lack of it, in the movie. Though, as ever, Katie's comments are not exactly calculated to win friends and influence people; but that's Katie

In the case of one movie, "Cool World" they actually bought a guy's script, agreed to have him direct the movie, and then when it came time to shoot presented him with a completely different script, written totally without his knowledge. They'll do this with actors. They'll get them on a film with one script, fire that writer, and 2000have the script completely rewritten by the time production starts. So, the script the actor has to play in has no resemblance to the one they agreed to play.

I respect someone who stands their ground about not doing nudity, just like I respect someone's choice to be nude on screen. I think it is a personal choice, not wrong or right. She is a very beautiful, talented girl.
