Why Is Hollywood Giving Us the Shaft?

Is it just me, or have they been showing A LOT more cock in movies lately? When did that become ok? Is that funny? Back in the day, if you saw a wang in a movie, you were either watching a kung fu movie or you were watching porn. Or sometimes both, but that's a different story...

Now I'm all for the boob shot, the soft core sex scenes, whatever, but in the last 10 years, the dong has become MUCH more visible in movies, most notably in comedies. The female body is a beautiful thing, but let's face it, the dick is not what anybody wants to see. Yet for some reason, the damn things keep popping up.

To the best of my knowledge, the madness started with the Farelly brothers' opus, There's Something about Mary, in the scene in which Ben Stiller got his junk caught in his zipper. That shit was just gruesome.

But that, I could take. Yeah, it looked hella painful, (that's right, I said hella. Big whoop. Wanna fight about it?) but at least it served a purpose. This stuff here lately, though, is just downright nasty. Take Borat, for example. One of the greatest comedies of our time, tainted by numerous depictions of Little Borat, culminating in the now infamous Khazakstani Naked Fight. It's hard to laugh when you just puked in your mouth.

Then there's the modern Happy Madison/Judd Apatow fare. These guys show more cock than a farmer at a chicken contest. Although I have to admit, the fat kid's "problem" in Superbad was fucking HILARIOUS. Just last night, though, I watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Kristen Bell and Mila Kunis in the same movie, and the only real nudity was the dude from How I Met Your Mother's....you guessed it, his shlong. Fucking twice. I'll never look at Monday nights the same way again.

I suppose it was inevitable, though. People's inhibitions have lowered tremendously over the years. Gone with the Wind's famous scene in which Rhett said "damn" was the focus of much scandal, and Midnight Cowboy, the first X rated movie to win an Oscar, would maybe garner a PG-13 these days. It was only a matter of time before the penis made it's comedic debut. Come to think of it, I guess they are kind of funny looking...

Until next time,
