Ragnarok is the best Marvel movie imo. I've gotten pretty bored with the franchise. It's just all so same-y. I have my fingers crossed for this one though.
Splash was the first film I saw in the cinema where I got to see a naked lady. Good times.
Disney is not clutching its pearls over nudity and potty humor. They just won't show Hawkeye or Ant-Man nude and spouting dirty jokes. There's a difference.
and a PG-rated movie too. Probably would have gotten PG-13 if it came out later that year once PG-13 started being used. Would likely not even get a PG-13 today and be rated R unless all nudity was removed.
Right, that is what I was responding to--here it is on Star which is automatically included in a Disney+ subscription.
For me the surprise is continuing to produce Deadpool as an MCU property. It seems that the MCU (like Star Wars and movies/shows under the Disney banner) is what they want to keep PG-13. --and that makes sense because families and younger people make a huge percentage of the audience for those properties.
I'm sure there's a way to make Ryan Reynolds dark and snarky with sharp one-liners without making him foul-mouthed and turning off a PG-13 audience with lots of kids in it. Frankly a lot of his humor in his own films works if you just change some words.
I've forgotten a lot about that movie, apart from Darryl Hannah's magic ability to have hair precisely where it needed to be at any point to ruin my young adolescent day, but I still sometimes find myself exclaiming "What a week I'm having!"
How does Star work exactly? Is it a section within the Disney+ app itself? I bring up the distinction when people mention Disney and adult content where in the US it is strictly gated off by such content not being on Disney+ itself at all.
I just wonder if when people in the US talk about Disney not having such content if it's perceived the same way from outside. In the US it's clearly separated.
As to Splash, it's still a bit weird to me that Disney actually digitally lengthened her hair to cover her butt. When did we get so prudish with this stuff, it was not uncommon to have a little nudity in PG/PG-13 stuff in the 70s and 80s.
When kids could see it, even by accident. Laws are getting tighter.
Kids could see them then as well, we did alright.
Actually I never noticed before, I was checking the content settings on D+ and they don't even have a setting above TV-14.

Laws are different now.
It's illegal for a child to see a movie with PG/PG-13 nudity?
Yep, it’s it’s own section of the app. There’s
Disney
Pixar
Marvel
Star Wars
National Geographic
Star
Potentially, depending on the state. It can fall under abuse because a child can't give consent.
link?
It is a section within Disney like the Marvel and the Star Wars sections. In order to access it you need an "adult" profile with a PIN on Disney plus. The annoying thing (for me) is that you need to enter the PIN every time you enter Disney plus--and I can't figure out how to remove that. The idea would have been great for any streaming service when my kids were younger, as it is something Netflix really needs.
That was probably done because the Disney Plus station is meant for all ages and everybody. Here, I don't know if Splash is on the Star section now (it wasn't when Star began), but if it were then it probably wouldn't be edited.
As for nudity in the 70s and 80s, I have mixed feelings about that now. On the one hand, I think the tendency toward prudishness in contemporary society is not a good thing. On the other, there have just been too many stories from actresses who say they were forced into doing nude scenes back in the day and who now regret those decisions. Less nudity in films today also signifies that young women have more control over their bodies and their film contracts.
I'd have to pull it from work. It was on a training I did recently.
I'll wait.
You'll be waiting a bit since I don't work weekends and can't remember the code.
Wait, you're saying I have a choice?!
