Default Boobs, Nipples, Butt Cheeks

I am watching Apocalypto right now. This film boasts brilliant PQ and AQ, stunning scenery, outstanding costumes and make-up - and a progressive James Newton Howard score.

However, I think it goes overboard with its revealing shots of boobs, nipples and butt cheeks. Don't get me wrong -- I suppose it is historically accurate. Yet somehow, this movie - amidst the horrors of brutality and inhumane treatment -- went off the richter scale for showing too much "T and A." After all, this is a DISNEY release!

There isn't another Blu-ray release that I can think of that shows this much raw human flesh. I guess director Mel Brooks (correction; MEL GIBSON) figured the movie would be a bigger hit by showing unlimited boobs, nipples and butt cheeks.

What do you think? Is it too much?

It's naked people . . . who cares? It's nothing nobody's never seen.

And Mel Gibson directed, not Mel Brooks . . . TOTALLY different directors. "Mel Brooks' Apocalypto" would be interesting.

^^ I agree...

Mel Brooks... History of the World...
Mel Gibson... Apocalypto... (wonder what Apocalypto would be like if Brooks had done this one...)

Yes, and making a point of Disney distributing it pretty much reflects the status of our society nowadays. 'Go ahead, let your kids watch all the violence in the world, but if you expose my child to naked flesh I will skin you alive '

I don't get it.

Yes. Mel was going to make a porn movie initially, but the studios demanded a plot to go with his historical porn film.

ROFL. This movie is one of the most historically inaccurate movies ever made.

However, I think the clothing part is accurate.
