Movies


The amount of sex and violence is increasing in motion pictures I think based on both the fact the Hollywood is giving what most of the public wants as well as being based on society's acceptance of what we are given. Personally, if people truly did not want that kind of content in a movie, they would not put it in there. The fact remains that a lot of people do want that kind of content and those that don't typically just accept it. One example is the movie Ocean's 11. I know a lot of people that really like the movie, but are apposed to some of the content in it. These people are just accepting what is given. I have heard other people comment on the movie that do not hold to the same standards that really like seeing that kind of content.

Personally, if I were a movie producer, and I was to make a box office hit, I would completely avoid having sex in the movie. Even though, I know that most box office movies have that kind of content, I would not do it. I would look to make a movie based on a true and inspiring story or something. I do not think I would look to make a comedy, because what the majority of people seem to think is funny these days are sexual, violent, or sacrilegious jokes.
