Crammed full of tit shots.

Can someone please explain why this movie is filled to bursting with tit shots. It adds nothing to the story and it's just unrealistic. I haven't been to many parties but I know for a fact that girls just don't sit around half naked. It's just cheapening. And to be honest it's everything that's wrong with cinema. Since when has telling a good story come second to shoving as many naked women as possible onscreen? What are your thoughts?

Smoke me a kipper. I'll be back for breakfast.

For me, there's no such thing as "too many" tits in a movie. My favorite movie is SHANE, but even that could have been improved by Jean Arthur and Nancy Kulp going topless in a couple of scenes.

You're talking about "American Pie", gallifreyrises. Gratuitous nudity, sex, and profanity are par for the course.

But yes, it's a cheap way to get people to watch. It's not telling a great story, it's just pandering to baser desires.

What he said.

The reason many people watch the "American Pie" spin-offs is the nudity.

have yet to see it but watched the 5th and that is jam packed full of tits.

yes the original 3 had their fair share of nudity and sex but not that much. I seem to remember 1 scene each of the 3 movies with nudity in them. 1 - Nadia, 2 - 2 Lesbos, 3 - 2 Strippers.

part 5 had nudity the whole way through almost, that does not make an American Pie movie in my book!

Gratuitous nudity can sometimes be a crutch for poor storytelling, which seems to be the case here. I agree that this movie wasn't very good, and not tied to the "American Pie" series very well, but it isn't unusual.

As a woman I find all the female nudity extremely distasteful and generally objectifying against women.

I suspect that you're going to find all of the American Pie movies objectionable, then. :D But, forewarned is forearmed, and now you'll be able to avoid watching movies you wouldn't enjoy.

I know this reply is like two years late but I went through my archive and found this discussion. So...

The first movie is equally objectifying to women and men and the nudity did something for the plot. I don't have a problem with that one. This one, and some of the other later ones, on the other hand, only objectifies women. There's a lot of naked women who are naked for no particular reason. The nudity does nothing for the plot. It feels like all the shots of boobs was thrown in for no other reason than to please male viewers. That, is objectifying women.

We all expect tits when watching this, I want to know how do you find such a large cast of ridiculous boob job actresses, horrible, not natural at all, they used to make them look natural, tear drop, now we have hard round orbs, worse than a Barbie doll. Ladies, STOP IT, it looks stupid!

Wasn't me
