I think the answer to that probably depends on the movie. It kind of sounds like in this movie, it was necessary. {nm} Ruthian23 Dec 01, 12:05

Disagree. The MPAA are Puritans that censor expressions of artful sexuality, while premitting violence. {nm} Antibody Dec 01, 12:12

both should be carefully reviewed. Oleg Max Dec 01, 12:34

Realistically as much as people don't want to talk about it, I think it comes down to what religious belief system you have as to whether or accountant_4_Jesus Dec 01, 14:45

Why is sex or nudity unsuitable? Your premise is absurd and self loathing. Your body isn't sinful! {nm} tawdryhepburn Dec 01, 13:35

I'm a dude. And I managed to never set foot in a frat house during my undergraduate education (UCSB), but I'd just a digital one. tawdryhepburn Dec 01, 19:23

Not much hazing. You just accept your Delta Tau Chi name, like Dorfman and Stork did, which is provided by the Sergeant at Arms (me). Plus DTXbro Dec 02, 01:10

Like SHAME would make anything at a Cinemark anyway... {nm} dsbman Dec 01, 14:31

Marcus and Carmike Cinemas also refuse to book the film because of the rating. I talked to reps from both this week. {nm} HarryWarden Dec 01, 14:41
