I can't believe over the past decade we have become so thin-skinned. offended? being offended is a risk you take everyday many times a day. so what? so we get offended? it's really subjective, what is and is not offensive. so what if we get offended anyway. big deal, what are all in the third grade? really it is so ridiculous. maybe if you get offended you can sue someone for millions so you won't have to work! ahhh the American dream! a million bucks will buy a lot of ipads. seriously, lets grow up and worry about the important stuff. like charley said, "life is pain, get used to it"
"Mitch: Jesus, old man, how many of those you got?
Nathan: Three. One shoulder, one hip and one down here, right next to Mr. Wally, where most patdowns never reveal it, as even the most hardened federal agent is often reluctant to feel up another man's groin. Any other questions?
Mitch: Yeah. What's the weather like on your planet? " -

No way! Reading your texts is painful. Movies like this torture me like rape. Rape isn't a joke, stop joking around. Movies should cuddle your heart and massage your soul. The Long Kiss Goodnight didn't make any cuddling happen nor did I get happy. Maybe Geena Davis knew I'd be unsatisfied. Wow, she's hot. No wait, she' not. Point proven. Profondorosso75 doesn't enjoy cinema, I've seen his dreams of cinema, they're empty like his sense of humor and compassion. He only likes offending IMDB patrons, leaving his kids all alone and hungry for good fatherhood. Why not raise kids good? Instead of raising them on Long Kiss Goodnight midnight showings and popcorn.
Once, Profondorosso75 stole 15$ from the till at St. Baptien's Chapel. He probably spent it on LKG' screenings and cocaine popcorn, plus hotels and video games, strip clubs, scissors, dance, church donations, leather socks, hobo fights, plastic bags, just a couple kiwis, an elastic, leather socks. He should've bought dinner for me and kids, not his, mine, The Tonys. The Tonys like hamburger, potatoes, gravys, drink, hot sauces, water, meals, cheeseburger, vege-desserts, skateboards, and curried filet mignon over a sauteed assortment of veal seasoned with cashew oil, paprika, and pared Yuca with hints of Pinot-Noir of Elm Root (bottled 1957), only 1957, they are very picky when it comes to les vins. They're 16. They jog.

It's hard to see the difference between sarcasm and real stupidity in internet.
So I have no idea wether you're joking or if you're actually an idiot.
What clichs? Thats a word the wannabe critics use when they want to whinge. -

Because of the character.it seemed like something she would say, because it would never happen to her.

I thought it was funny. She was saying taking a stroll with a random guy wasn't of interest to her. Getting raped (engaging in a sexual activity), considering she is a formidable combatant, would be preferable, as if it would be some type of role play for her.

As someone who has actually been raped, no. I didn't think it was offensive at all. It made me laugh. It was merely a statement saying she'd rather be raped than go with that greaseball down the alley.

Sorry to hear that. I have friends who have been raped and gangraped. The best defense is offense. Talk about it, joke about it, let it out.
There is no shame in getting raped, only shame in being a rapist. And I just love the way Charlie delivers the line, with the emphasis that he is lower than the lowest scum. -

It was offensive to the man. She was saying she'd rather be raped by someone else than go with him. She's saying rape is bad. She's saying he's even worse.
BEARDED MAN
I see me a good-looking lady, all
upset, I wonder if she doesn't need
some male company.

Forget it. I'm saving myself 'til I
get raped.

Druff^
No kidding!
To be offended by a line delivered by a fictional character to another fictional character in a movie?pfffttt!
That's really out there.
Methinks there are much better, more serious things to worry about in this world.
Kind of a first-world society type of concern, if you ask me ~
Many people in this world don't have the 'luxury' to prioritize their 'anxieties' along those lines.
