Scenes that would never fly after #MeToo

Pretty much all of Entourage.

 

But "Entourage" was satirizing that lifestyle, right? It's not necessarily wrong to show men being heels. It's wrong to show men being heels and playing it as if they aren't being heels, like the Deckard scene.

 

Then again, "Fifty Shades of Grey" was made. I watched it. It's two straight hours of glorified emotional abuse.

 

I think that was the original idea, but it quickly turned into bro lifestyle fantasy porn.

 

The entire series of Moonlighting, especially this:

 

A lot of comedies of that era would have to cut scenes, like the peeping in Animal House and Porky's. And the rape line in Blazing Saddles (which would never get made today for a myriad of reasons).

 

LOL, would Kelly Leak be taking Amanda Whurlitzer to a Stones concert after she made that "anything" bet?

Or maybe Buttermaker was right ... maybe she wanted to lose.

 

Yeah, I think the odds of getting away with a non-consensual blowjob are a bit higher for Susan Sarandon than guy I went to school with.

But, honestly, how differently would that scene have been interpreted, even back then, if the genders had been reversed?

 

You'd have 50 think pieces on sexual assault and 30 on gay panic.

 

The extended 20-minute gang rape scene in "I Spit On Your Grave" might raise a few eyebrows.
