Mainstream Movies Are Becoming More Like Porno Movies

[Yavin4]

It's not that mainstream movies are not becoming more sexually graphic. Rather, it's that they've become overly-formulaic and plot lines serve as a flimsy connection between the "action" scenes. We're getting the same movies over and over again, the Action picture, the Teen Horror/Drama/Comedy, the sappy Romantic Comedy, and the movie for kids, and in each movie, the plot lines serve as a vehicle to set up the next big action sequence, just like the plot lines in a porno movie serve to set up the next sex scene.

Because of the NYC blackout, I went to see "SWAT" at a theater in New Jersey (It was the best choice available. Trust me.) That movie used every cliche action cop movie story and character. It was like they bought the script from a WalMart discount bin. The bureaucratic police captain that doesn't support his men, the renegade cop gone bad, the tough talking team leader who's putting together a team, the muti-cultural team who all get along, etc. etc.

Just like a porno movie that uses stupid story lines and bad dialogue to get you to the next sex scene, this movie does the same thing, but instead of a sex scene it gives you an action scene.
