Vomiting, Urinating and Defecating: AKA - Worst week in DVDtalk History?
Seriously. 
people? I thought the median age around dvdtalk was mid 20's-mid 30s. Who let the kiddies in here?

I think this slew of threads is a matter of coincidence, not a harbinger of the end times. Young ladies aren't about to show their ankles in public and say rude things about the Queen.

This is an older thread, not really part of some sick trend.
Vomiting in movies?
The poster of this thread kind of had a good reason for posting it, as he is an actor and claims he can vomit on command. He was trying to see if this was something he could exploit to get work.

Maybe this one is a little odd, but I chalk it up to the influence of The Edit King.

Can't really defend this one. I suspect band wagon jumping.
Tomorrow, if I come back and see additional threads about sneezing, flatulence, sharts, Aunt Flo, and juice spilling, then I might start to worry. But for the time being, I am content that all this to shall pass.

"Scenes where someone is peeing while eating a hotdog on a covered bridge"
That was the thread title I was going to start until I reelized this one was pretty similar.
The question is not real (but if you know of any please post a pic!), but why are we getting a load of questions like this?
Why do people start these really obscure threads? Are people actually watching films and when a scene pops up like this, do people start thinking "where can I see more of this?"
Have we really started running out of questions? The questions seem to be mindless and have no point, and when someone mentions that its for a "project" you have to wonder of the merit of said project.

Well, it's still better than back when we were inundated with Star Wars threads...

I think those threads are all valid if they call attention to the excesses of the European "History-as-a-collection-of-body-fluids" film school of the 90's and 00's: Elizabeth (1998), Vatel, Le Roi Danse, La Reine Margot, Ridicule, Farinelli, Saint-Germain ou La Négociation, Henry VIII (2003), Gunpowder, Treason and Plot, Saint-Cyr, on and on... and the toilet humour that has almost drowned recent American comedies under a pile of human feces, starting with Spielberg's 1941 way back in 1979 and culminating in Not another teen movie, which at least was a parody of the whole messy "genre".
