  • @DEKE_RIVERS I didn’t miss that point, I chose not to respond to it (as it’s redundantly obvious that that’s what Craig is, and what needs to be done). I instead responded to your “it’s not that hard” statement.

  • Great points @mtm … And @j_w_pepper , I get why you’re bringing up this film, and although I haven’t seen it, it doesn’t sound like this has anything to do with titillation (although, obviously, these scenes are very problematic today). But we ar…
  • 16 year olds topless??? I never knew, and why the Hell would one bring this up? If this did happen, then that's not part of the good old days of being sexually liberal! That's child exploitation. Whoa, checking out of this conversation...

  • I know what you're saying, but, that was put in on the free site, but it was never named that on Imdbpro. This info, is ALL on the free site, but there was never a "secret project" on IMDBPRO. And you don't have to believe me, at all. BUT: …
