@OmSigDAVID,
I'm glad I don't get the same channels on t.v. that you do. You must have subscribed to the Conservatives-only band. Freaky people, those Russian conservatives.

There are two kinds of humans in the world:
those who divide humans into two kinds
and those who don't.

This promo, the same as all promos, was to invite attention to the movie that it was promoting;
i.e., to make it look good, attractive. This was purportedly a comedy movie.

I just don't understand how attacking the elementary principles of hygene and of DECENCY
is calculated to gain approval and a larger audience,
presumably for more of the same kind of thing?

How can this BE ?

It's Art. Art doesn't have to make any sense, it's just has to yank your chain,
for better for worse. Kinda like the various Trolls we have on A2K.


It yanked it.

It blows my mind that some conservatives on this board can post such amazingly idiotic drivel and people actually respond to it as if it should be taken seriously.

@ehBeth,
This was an advertisement.

Ads are designed to get people's attention. You not only remembered the ad, it impacted you enough that you posted it here and spent some significant amount of time thinking about it and discussing it.

This was apparently a particularly well designed advertisement.

A play on words is "indecent"?

What do you call your misuse of language?

No, no , no Ebrown...

that is a totally different comedian Wink

I think David is talking about THIS one.
This guy actually does come from another country where being with your sister is not only common, but acceptable.

If u are referring to my fonetic spelling,
then what I call it is exposing error in the non-fonetic parts of spelling English,
in order to get rid of it and replaced by a more logical,
efficient and comfortable substitute.

I think that 's probably him, Shewolf; it looks like him.

Presumably, he smooched an actress in the movie promo,
not his real sister. I think that he was portraying a Russian immigrant.
I have no information at all about Russian ideas about fraternal incest.
We know that it was openly practiced in ancient Egypt.
That 's about the best that I can come up with.
It was my impression that his reference to incest with his alleged sister
was put there to gross us out, in the belief that this will raise the popularity of his movie.
(At least we can be glad that the alleged incest was not putatively with either of his parents.)

I have no comments about incest with sisters, but my sensibilities
were extremely offended by his having applied water from a toilet to his face,
even tho I am sure that obviously thay 'd have actually chosen
a new toilet that had never been used.

What bothered me most
was that thay believe that doing this IS POPULAR.

If it really IS popular,
then that shows the radical difference in humans which is the subject matter of this thread.


How many of u agree with me
that this is socially unacceptably foul ?

I did not watch very closely; just come and see the movie, generally.
