Ski Patrol, Police Academy 2, and Airplane the list goes on for 80s movies with a single brief topless shot.

I'd argue the self-aware humor of Airplane was really calling out stereotypes like the one pictured, and defusing tensions with humor. Now Revenge of the Nerds, there's a problematic movie.

dude, lets just rape some people or otherwise sexually assault them and call it good-natured fun!

Breaking and entering into a sorority, barging into private rooms and house showers/bathrooms, stealing property, and installing hidden cameras in their rooms in order to casually spy on them while they are naked, sleeping, etc. Capturing images of the sorority girls naked, making hundreds of copies of those images, and sharing them with the entire campus to win a school-sponsored competition for a student government seat. Raping a woman while sharing said porn of her and her friends with the entire student body. Said woman then falls in love with her rapist. All played for laughs and zero consequences for any of it. An 80's hit! Make 3 more sequels of it!

Is this seriously the fucking movie? What the fuck??

It was the 80s. Things like rape and pedophilia weren't taken seriously.

You forgot the scene where one of the nerds wears a mask and pretends to be another person in order to sleep with the hot chick. Definitely not sexual assault!

No, I mentioned the rape.

Your right. It's not.

That's rape.

That's the rape.

AND when she learns it wasn't her boyfriend, she dumps her boyfriend and starts dating the rapist because the rape felt so good.

It's disgusting.

Don't you think they just put that in there to warn us all? That with information technology transforming the world like no-one ever imagined, even the best nerds still aren't without their flaws. Like Jobs or McAfee

"Credit" where it is due, at least there was no rape in American Pie. But, yes, other sex crimes played for laughs.

I remember the first bit but not the rape?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's toward the end, he's wearing like a Darth Vader mask or something and let's her think he's her boyfriend while he fucks her. That's rape.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

Oh shit yeah I forgot about that part. It's been probably 10 or 15 years since I've seen it. I thought the panty raid and hidden cameras were bad, but damn, that movie did not age well.

From 2010, Hot Tub Time Machine had a short but delightful topless seen that was absolutely sexual
