BlingNotTheMusic 25,187 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 I think we should wait until it comes out and watch it, then make informed opinions about it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magui 2,590 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Turns out it's probably just a crush that the kid has on the older girl and nothing really happens?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if that were the case, it has nothing to do with what OP is talking about. Also the criticism of him as a character in the film holds literally no weight unless you've seen it and can provide a fully informed opinion. Judging by the trailer he's hardly being portrayed as a hero. You're gonna be shocked when you hear about some of the other bad people that have been depicted in film over the years!

Queen Bitch 10,513 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 It's just a movie. Without having watched it, I doubt it "normalizes pedophilia". Just like Hannibal doesn't normalize cannibalism, Nekromantik doesn't normalize necropihlia and The House That Jack Built doesn't normalize serial-killing.

Even if they are presented as such? You think audiences are too stupid to figure out for themselves that being a rapist is bad? So going forwards we should have no villains in films? No characters that do terrible things? No murderers etc…? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy 10,297 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Is it about that? Who’da thunk lmaoooo I could not surmise what this movie was about from the trailer nor did I really want to after I watched. It looked like another scattered coming of age in 70s LA story that Hollywood loves LOL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnWayne92 2,082 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 You don’t have to agree with the context of a film to enjoy it or appreciate it. Hello, we watch slasher movies 24/7. We watched Gaga kidnap a child and turn him into a vampire? We watched her kill multiple people, and be okay with her husband having sex with people while he actively kills them. No one here is like, oh my gosh, the subject matter. Lol Things like this happen in real life, like someone said before. It’s a film about that experience, doesn’t mean it’s glorifying it. How does it end? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
