lost interest when they started making out with teenage girls -.-


sigh.
what is it with this pathetic obsession with writing in scenes like this in movies. old guys.

reply

I have a theory. Teenage years are when most men (and women, but that is outside the scope of this discussion) begin to experience sexuality with another person. Based on that, I don't find it strange that a lot of men, not all, retain some attraction to that stage of life, and thus the girls who remind them of that.

That being said, I really did think that the girls they made out with at the club were just a hair younger than them, not teenagers.

This isn't a morality contest.

They weren't teenage girls, or even girls, or even human.

Glasgow's FOREMOST authority Italics = irony. Infer the opposite please.

reply

Yeah, but they were hot, and that was enough, and that was the point.

reply

They weren't teenagers, they were Blanks. Even before they find this out about them, they believe them to be the girls they knew when they were teenagers and that it is the lights or the alcohol that makes them appear so young.

Also, only Gary makes out with one of them which kind of fits his character. Andy pushes one away and says he is married and Peter just giggles while the girl dances on him.

reply

This. The movie was about Gary trying to recapture his teenaged years and also the fact that the Blanks use past faces and your weakness for them against you. You probably should have kept watching rather than getting irritable about what you *thought* the movie makers were trying to do.

This is why I hated this movie. Gary King is a horrible character and less redeemable than Alex deLarge(the original book version, not kubrick's version).

reply

less redeemable than Alex deLarge(the original book version, not kubrick's version)


Less redeemable than a murdering rapist (both versions)? Did you miss the part of the book where Alex gets a couple of ten year old girls drunk and rapes them?

reply

A depressed alcoholic, who just misses his friends is less redeemable to a murdering rapist. Well you know what, so are you.

Everyone above who defended this scene is a pedophile.

Ahahhahhahhhaaa.. sneeze cough... ahahhahahhahahahahahhahhahahaaa. Jeeeeesus some people are f up. Pedophile.. ahahhhahahahahahaaahaha, you kill me...

reply

Actually, even if they were teens they would have been seen as their age when they all left school so perfectly of age... Just sayin'.

reply

They weren't real teens. A big theme in the movie is reliving your childhood and re-doing what you wish you could have done, even 20 years later. That make-out scene was less than a minute, an hour into the movie. I don't see what the big deal is, even making a post about it.




"Oh, my God. Bear is driving! How can that be?!"

reply

EVERYBODY wants to make out with teenage girls, it's just taboo to admit it nowadays.

reply

As many other posters have already stated, they weren't teenage girls.

FIRST: If you had paid any attention to the movie, they were the same age as Gary and his friends as they all grew up together... they were even referenced in the prologue as the 'Marmalade Sandwich'.

SECOND: The THEME of the club night they went to was 'school-girl' themed, which is why they were dressed as school girls.
