What's fascinating is that while the movie industry has largely capitulated (especially regarding sexuality), television has begun to assert itself as willing to push those boundaries. Throw in the Interwebs and it's completely ridiculous that our cinematic storytellers are expected to craft tales without acknowledging the reality of our world.

It's easier for Family Guy to turn something into a joke than it is for the actual something to be shown/said in a movie. Other than the self-sustaining bubble of ignorance around some grandstanding loudmouths, what's actually been protected by this prudish governance of filmmaking? I definitely agree that vulgarity for the sake of vulgarity isn't interesting, but we live in a really jacked up society where grown damn adults honestly think it's healthier for youth to see unrealistic gunfights that marginalize the value of human life and disregard the actual likely consequences (i.e., you don't leap through fireballs shooting two pistols; you die) than it is to see pubic hair.

And now I've gone and gotten all worked up and I've got Michelle Pfeiffer in her Catwoman costume on my mind and I'm wondering about her pubic hair at the time and I don't know where the hell I'm going with any of this.

Well this car is systematic, hydromatic, ultramatic
Why, it could be Greased Lightnin'!
We'll get some overhead lifters and some four barrel quads, oh yeah
Keep talkin', whoah keep talkin'!
Fuel injection cut off and chrome plated rods, oh yeah
I'll get her ready, I need to get her ready!
With a four-speed on the floor, they'll be waitin' at the door
You know that ain't shit when we'll be gettin' lots of tit
Greased Lightnin'

(Chorus:)
Go, Greased Lightnin'
You're burnin' up the quarter mile
Greased Lightnin', go Greased Lightnin'
Go Greased Lightnin'
You're coasting through the heat lap trails
Greased Lightnin', go Greased Lightnin'
You are supreme
The chicks'll cream
For Greased Lightnin'
Go go go go go go go go

We'll get some purple pitched tail lights and thirty inch fins, oh yeah
A palomina dashboard and duel-muffler twins, oh yeah
With new boosters, plates and shocks
I can get off my rocks
You know that I ain't braggin', she's a real pussy wagon
Greased Lightnin'

I'm guessing most of her pubic hair ended up in Christopher Walken's Dr. Caligari hair in that movie.

Michelle Pfeiffer's succulent pubes ending up as Walken's dome merkin? Another argument for atheism goes straight down the ol' Royal American. :up:

I'd floss with 'em if that's what it took to get that close to her.

All i know is that Mel Gibson really hates the Lews, and thinks they control the media.

:lol: You learn something new everyday. I never knew the words "tit" and "pussy wagon" was in this song. I would bet i've heard it a million times in my lifetime.

I guess I missed 'pussy wagon' - but 'shit' and 'tit' I thought were gleefully naughty for my young ears.

the Olney Theater is doing the 'theater' version during their 2011 season - I hope they don't water it down.

What was this thread about again?

It's about Olivia Newton John in skintight vinyl

Olivia Newton John in Grease > Michelle Pfeiffer in Grease 2

Michelle Pfeiffer in Batman Returns > Olivia Newton John in Grease.

Actually I think it's the car from Kill Bill when Uma Thurman takes it from that hospital orderly when she escapes from the hospital.

No no. This is all Friedberg's and Seltzer's fault.
