Does Hollywood still make these kinds of movies?

Sandler probably does, but I’m not watching his movies. No, I don’t think they’re being made, and I don’t get it. I think there would always be a market for them - that pg-13 comedy is the sweet spot for me.

The R comedies of this century have run their course. It’s just gratuitous swearing. I’d prefer something like Police Academy - occasional swearing, raunchy situations that are more innuendo than graphic, and an occasional blink and you’ll miss them pair of tits in non-sexual situations. That was my HBO.

Different strokes, I guess.
I don't need tiddies in a movie. But if a movie shows tiddies, please don't make me hit the pause button.

You don’t need them now. Me either. I’ve got some at home. But in my formative years, I needed them. Remember when Julie Warner walked out of the water in Doc Hollwood and told Michael J Fox he could blink now? She might as well have been talking to me.

Teen Crushes would be a great thread title on a board populated by 40 to 50 year old whites. Probably finally get this place some attention.

Assuming you’re talking when we were also young, it’d just be a bunch of blue chewers reminiscing about Elisabeth Shue, Tiffani Thiessen, and the aforementioned Phoebe Cates.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
