I totally agree with KP. I regurarly go to movies with my girlfriend and even she said that there is also male nudity and I have NEVER seen a nude vagina on cinema screen yet. Now we have erect penises. Next there will be male penises ejaculating and never will there be vaginas. It is a disgrace.

I also want to point out that what I saw was an “advanced” screening. A very differnt version of this movie may be what is ultimately released in theaters.

Also, the Michael Jackson reference was deleted from the advanced screening version.

KP, since you only “heard” about the movie and the scene with the erect penis, why don’t you actually view the movie first? It almost appeard to me to be digitally altered.

I agree with d0g, see porn if you want to see a woman’s vagina.

They have been showing female nudity in films for years. It’s about time they show male genitalia as well!

KP, I don’t agree with or understand your logic.

If you want to see pussy just watch porn.. there is enough of it out there!

They should just keep nudity out of movies altogether.

Well JS, I don’t believe in censorship either; but I do believe in FAIR RATINGS STANDARDS. If penises can be shown now in R-rated movies, then vaginas must be allowed to be shown too! And how the hell can the MPAA allow an ERECT PENIS to be shown and NOT give it an NC-17 rating, but then automatically give a woman’s vagina an NC-17 rating on the few occasions filmakers tried to show it???!! That is completely sexist, unfair, and illegal. Maybe its because a WOMAN is now head of the MPAA’s ratings dept?

If they will allow any kind of graphic male nudity to be shown, then they must also allow any kind of graphic female nudity to be shown. That means if a film decides to show a woman’s vagina, anus, or spread vagina (all of which are graphic nudity and no more explicit than showing an erect penis) then the MPAA MUST also rate that “R”. The only thing I can think of is that the MPAA has changed its standards on nudity and will, in the future, also allow any type of female nudity to be shown in an R-rated film. Otherwise, its time for a CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT and SUE the bastards in the MPAA for having a sexually discriminatory ratings policy! There is no justification to allow unlimited genital nudity of one gender to be shown with an R-rating, while giving the genital nudity of the other gender an NC-17 rating!

This is a really BAD movie! If you are gay; or looking to see white dicks or explicit homo behavior, this movie is for you. I HATED THIS MOVIE WITH A PASSION! I was looking for lots of laughs and was over taken by the overly vivid acts of gay behavior. I am ashamed at the movie industry for even putting out such a BAD film. I know I was going to see acts of homosexuality behavior, but this was over the top. I would not recommend this film to ANYONE!I would rate this film -0.

P.S My wife and I walked out!

I always thought about what KP said and I agree with him so much.

I saw an advanced screening of this movie the other evening. The version I saw was rated R. They did show the erect penis in the version I saw. I do not believe in censorship; however, I do understand why the movie studio wants to release this the movie with an R rating. If people are easily offended and are on their high moral ground, then they can choose not to see the movie. However, they should not deprive others from their choice to see this movie or any other movie. The MPAA is maybe changing their standards of what constitutes an R rating. I have noticed that a lot of PG-13 movies now would have had an R rating a few years ago. People should read the verbiage noted after the rating. It is always noted if there is extreme violance or sexaul content or pervasive language. I think this country has progressed and should keep on progressing. Provacative and controverial movies have been showing for years in France, Germany and other European countries. It’s about time we evolve! The movie was hilarious and I absolutely loved it and cannot wait for the NC-17 DVD to be released. We are fortunate to be able to express our freedom of speech and creativity, and these should never be censored!

I heard that the film shows an erect penis and also a man’s pee-hole opening up and “speaking” Bruno. How can they show an ERECT penis? I think that must be in the UNCUT NC-17 version; not the R-rated theatrical version. They can’t even show a vagina in an R-rated movie (they only can show a woman’s pubic hair)even though the MPAA allows penises to be shown frequently.

Now the MPAA even allows an erect penis to be shown??? That’s complete garbage! How come we can’t see a SPREAD VAGINA in an R-rated movie? A spread vagina is the female nudity equivelant of a man’s erect penis. A spread vagina would get an NC-17 rating; in fact, even just showing a vagina, not spread open, will get an NC-17 rating. So how can they allow an erect penis to be shown? Its a sexually discriminatory rating policy when it comes to nudity! We men need to unite and file a LAWSUIT against the MPAA. If the MPAA will allow penises to be shown then they must allow the vagina to be shown too. If they will allow an erect penis to be shown, then they must allow a spread vagina to be shown in an R-rated film also. Its time to take the MPAA to court and put an end to their sexually discriminatory policy of rating nudity. The vagina is NOT obscene….certainly no more obscene than a penis. Why can one be shown but not the other?
