Is this going to be a remake of the Paul Verhoeven movie or a movie faithful to the book? I got the impression it was going to be the latter and it scares me. At this point in the US, such a movie would awfully seem like the kind of militaristic propaganda Trump would love for his expansionist Putinesque fantasies.
what in the hell are you smoking? a movie like that would not get made in hollywood in the current 2025 climate. It will be turned into an 2SLGBTQIAZ+7 epic love song where a trans man saves all of humanity to the tune of Wham!‘s 1983 classic albulm ’ Fantastic’
I remember watching this in the cinema… I don’t recall ever experiencing such an amount of heartfelt laughter while watching a movie. Fun times.
I somehow got let in to watch it despite being a lot younger than 18 at the time. The film was (is) amazing. Being a teenager the nude scenes were epic. At the time the only nudity available was staying up late on the weekend to watch Euro Trash. Then the internet happened.
We’d often go into the video store to look at the back of the VHS tapes. Many of the MA and R rated movies from the 80’s and early 90’s had titties on the back, especially horror movies.
I just remembered finding porn in the bush, then burying them in a plastic bag in the dirt like a pack of dogs. I also remember some American comedian on TV saying they did the same thing with playboys, and it made me wonder how many young boys buried porn in the woods?
Forest porn is an apparently near universal phenomenon for American kids that grew up between 1970-2000. The internet made it go extinct though.
This is the first I’m hearing of it from outside America though, that’s neat.
