Enough Sex?

I wasn't at all bothered by the amount of sex in the movie. But I will admit to two things
- I giggled a bit at the springy pubic afros; and
- I could have gone my whole life without ever seeing Rp Torn's wang and died a happy woman.
I'll leave my love between the stars

I think I hate "mattqatsi".
"You can tell I'm an artist, can't you?" is probably the most undeservingly pretentious thing I've ever heard.
Show me the art you've produced and made money on. Send me some links of all the beautiful art you've made as the artist you are and I'll buy anything else you "make".
I hope you start your next post with multiple "no"s, too. -

I don't think I called myself an artist
And what's wrong with saying I'm an artist anywawy? Just because I think a movie has too much unnecessary sex, and I do draw, why would that make you hate me.
Plus, most artists don't really make a living off of Art, just like writers.
So what's wrong with saying that?
This movie just seems toomuch like a Tinto Brass movie, where there is more unnecessary sex than there is plot. -

And now, seeing how undeservingly pretentious you sounded, you're lying to people on the internet. Genius!
Here's when you updated the post where you said "You can tell I'm an artist, can't you?"

Here's when you posted the first quote, your pathetic lie.

So it's a coincidence that you "just found a spelling error" in your first post, then posted your excuse for a refutation only minutes after? You're not fooling anyone. By the way, saying "And what's wrong with saying I'm an artist anyway?" afterwards doesn't strengthen your credibility either.
I hate you because you're the cliche modern, wannabe artist. Even though you have no talent and don't know the first thing about art, you claim to be an artist by saying stupidly pretentious things. There's a difference between art and "do draw".
Artists and writers make a living, support themselves, put bread on the table, by painting, screenwriting, sketching, writing, directing, producing, animating, whatever the hell verb you want. People who doodle with mechanical pencils on notebook paper and people who write the first three pages of a sloppy story with no rhetoric aren't artists and writers. They may have it as a hobby, and that's fine, as long as they (i.e. you) don't claim to be something they're not.
Then they're liars (i.e. you).
I'm not arguing about the movie, it may very well have too much sexual content, it may very well have the perfect amount of sexual content, and it may very well merit more sexual content. But when you type one word sentences and imagine yourself drinking pinot noir in a library as you type, then end your post by saying "You can tell I'm an artist, can't you?", you're trying to convince people you'll never know that you're something you're not.
That's extremely pathetic. -

art is a hobby, at least for me
Haha, caught me. True, I went back, read that, and said, "Man, I sound like an f'ing retard" It's not the biggest crime in the world. I was also a little distracted, so five min later, I forgot about it and reposted, but that's not what we're arguing about.
And if someone draws or writes as a hobby, I consider them an artist or writer -

And fattmcmatty, your the one showing how pretentious you are by having your anger easily manipulated by people on the internet.
Sounds like you get too offended. Mind me asking how the hell you get by each day? -

It was made in the 70's
If you watch "R" rated movies from that era, there is a tendency to have gratuitus nudity because it was 'allowed' for the first time in the hstory of cinema.
Believe it or not, people have become MORE hung up on nudity over the years. Hence the 'new' MPAA rating which cause many films to cut things out rather than risk losing the teen audience with an NC-17 rating.
If you made The Man who Fell to Earth in 2007, you would leave out a lot of nudity but it was 1976.key parties, discos and coke. -

There was almost no mention of sex in the book. So why is this film almost soft core porn? Did I really need to see Rip Torn's wedding tackle a-dangling all over the screen in several scenes. What was the point? This movie had such great potential, and some high brow artist wannabe made miserable dreck instead of a good or even great film.
