the cl*t word!


I must just be such a prude because I watched it last night thinking my son (11) would enjoy it, but realized that he would run screaming from the room at the party scene where the suave New York writer, Elliot Richards, seduces that silly girl on the balcony with his whispered description of sexual arousal.

"N*pples . . . p@nis . . . cl@toris . . . " he murmurs in her ear, describing graphically how the blood rushes to those areas just below the skin ("soft, smooth, creamy, infinitely desirable," he croons). Aaack, I could hardly take it, my poor kid would just puke! Maybe I'll just fast-forward through that section.

But really, maybe it's just that I find Brendan Fraser very sexy in that (and other scenes), but didn't it deserve something a little more stern than PG 13, especially if you consider that long "Easter Egg" scene where he plays an oversexed, drugged, alcholic rock star, a la Val Kilmer in The Doors? Man, that scene is really long, not to mention those tongues!

What a naughty movie! Elizabeth Hurley's devil would love it.

Only Brendan Fraser could pull that off. Although... I'm tempted to try it...

Did I miss something - I watched this movie for the second time last night and I don't recall him being a rock star, and have no idea what you mean by "Easter Egg" scene either?????? Thanks!!

The scene is hidden on the DVD. Some people just know how to search for these things (I don't), some people come upon them accidentally, some people read about them on the internet (like you and me).

The insructions are on the IMDb trivia page for this board. Here they are:

There is a deleted scene that can be seen on the DVD which shows Elliot using one of his wishes to become a rock star, playing in a metal band and using an English accent. It was cut out due to images of drug use (Elliot takes a bong-hit on stage and Alison tries to kill herself by swallowing pills), foul language (Elliot says a certain four-letter word a number of times), and sexual content (Elliot and Alison start to have sex right in the back room). It can be accessed on the DVD by going to the second Special Features page, highlighting the top choice, and clicking right. A devil on Elizabeth Hurley's shoulder should light up.

Parental Guidance means exactly that. If you're not sure something is appropriate for your child, watch it first. Meanwhile, this is the definition of a PG-13 film, and would be absurd for it to be R.

He's 11. In the UK that means year 7 in secondary school. Remember first sex ed class being in year 7.

Be hearing it from a teacher soon then.

"N*pples . . . p@nis . . . cl@toris" are all medical terms for parts of the human body. You think it should be rated higher than PG-13? It's not like he said *beep* or "mother-fvcker."
