    Yeah, I’m sure an eight-year-old would love seeing 2 hours of blue dick.

    I don’t know why everyone is so fixated on the blue penis. It never hurt anybody. I mean, compared to all the explicit violence and sex (with Hallelujah playing in the background, no less), big blue is downright wholesome. Which is worse, sawing a man’s arms off, or a man…. liberated from the hassles of society?

  2.  

    Arti, I think the point is that it’s not an either/or.

  3.  

    anyway, onto famous people and twilight.

    Well… it’s an internet famous person in this case. His shot at Twilight appears around 12:40.

    I don’t know why everyone is so fixated on the blue penis. It never hurt anybody. I mean, compared to all the explicit violence and sex (with Hallelujah playing in the background, no less), big blue is downright wholesome. Which is worse, sawing a man’s arms off, or a man…. liberated from the hassles of society?

    Some of it is expectations. Considering American film norms, and in how few panels in the GN that actually contained blue dick, one would’ve expected them to tone it down for the film, rather than showing it more frequently.

    I do agree about the arm-sawing being worse, and I think it would’ve been about a hundred times stronger of a shot if it had just shown the blood misting combined with the howls of pain and never followed it up with the gory stumps.

    That being said, explicit gore and overdone sex scenes are hardly unique to Watchmen, but blue dick is. That’s why you get the focus.

  5.  

    How about all the violence and profanity and sex and such?

    When I was eight or so, I was allowed to watch most movies with any amounts of violence and language (i.e. Aliens) because my parents knew that I knew right from wrong and that I wouldn’t repeat any words. They were much stricter about nudity and sexual content, however. I don’t see a problem with violence and profanity if the child is mature enough to handle. I don’t think that they should be exposed to really sexual movies at a young age, though. It’s just different. They shouldn’t see/hear that sort of thing yet.

    What a culture we live in. It’s fine for the kids to see murder glamorized and rewarded. But sex? That crosses a line, damnit!

    @ Sansafro
    True, you don’t see blue penises every day.

    Yea it’s safe to say other cultures are a bit more comfortable with the whole sex thing than we are.

  8.  

    That’s because kids (particularly boys) are naturally violent anyway. Even if you were to remove all violence from their view they’d still break into fights, play act, etc.

    On the other hand, they are not naturally sexual and generally unable to comprehend the biology and purpose of it.

    Just because parents (well… non farming ones) might want to keep both from their kids doesn’t mean they are equivalent. To say they are is to say that corporal punishment is equal to molestation.

    @ NateWinchester:

    Two things.

    1) According to Freud boys are naturally sexual, it’s just repressed or underdeveloped; and according to my own experience as a boy, I was definitely naturally sexual, i just lacked the mechanical and emotional know-how to either understand it or act on it.

    2) “corporal punishment = molestation”... DEATH BY SNOO-SNOO!

    :P

  10.  

    Taku, Freud’s been disproven on most of his stuff but a few larger ideas. (see: Westermark effect) The biology itself holds up as testosterone (yes I know calling it the “sex hormone” is an oversimplification but we’re not writing teatrise here) is lower in children than adults.

    As for 2, we’ll have to add you to the list.

  11.  

    I just think that violence is less… I don’t know how to put it… not “traumatizing” exactly, but it’s not as innocense-erasing as sex is. Kids can understand that this person was murdered, and that it was wrong, but most kids don’t understand sex, so it would have to be explained, and it’s just different to me than violence and profanity. I repect everyone’s opinions, but it just seems different, though I can’t think of how to explain it properly.

    To some extent, I think there’s a proper “schedule” for sexual development, with the assumption that most everybody will partake eventually, so naturally you’d want to keep kids away from seeing it before they’re really prepared.

    There isn’t really such an equivalent for violence. People aren’t supposed to kill other people, so when it’s portrayed in fiction, it’s generally seen as more… imaginary, I guess? Besides which, like NP said, kids have a frame of reference for violence, since most of them have hurt themselves physically at some point.

  13.  

    ^^Yes, that’s what I wanted to say! I was having an inarticulate moment.

  14.  

    since most of them have hurt themselves physically at some point.

    Or if they have siblings… each other.

    Yea, kids also steal kisses on the playground. And, violent as they may be, I doubt that most of them truly understand the implications of violence and death.

    The way I see it, if you tell a kid about sex before he’s is interested in it, then where’s the problem? It would just go over their heads, as if you were explaining how the stock market works, or how to play poker. But if a kid is interested in sex but has no frame of reference, then he or she is likely to do something stupid. Understand, I wouldn’t suggest showing a small child explicit sex any more than I’d have them watch their grandmother die, but I think that sex is a troublesome subject largely because we treat it like one.

  16.  

    I think kids get so curious about it because the parents squirm everytime it comes up. I’m not even kidding. They squirm. If you treat it in a matter-of-fact manner, the kid will say ‘ok then’ and move on.

    So lets summarise his foes…
    1. Dracula’s son
    2. The dude (or one of them, rather) who wields a weapon named (Edward’s race)+Killer

    Just get your hands on some Dead Man’s Blood, a gargantuan meat cleaver, and a crossbow. Shoot them with the bolts dipped in the blood, and lob off their heads.
    At least, that’s what the Winchesters would do.

    “Eat it Twilight!”

    Dean Winchester – the new patron saint of Impish Idea.

    That is awesome, even if I’ve never seen Supernatural.

    Dean Winchester – the new patron saint of Impish Idea.

    Here’s another definition of ‘irony’ (I think it’s from Geroge Carlin):

    “Irony isn’t ‘diabetic goes out to get insulin, and is run over by a truck.’ If the truck is carrying a load of sugar, it still isn’t irony. If, however, the truck is carrying a load of insulin, then it’s irony.”
