A movie that wouldn't have any sound at all if it weren't for the fowl language.
In the vast majority of Hollyweird products, sex, violence, and fowl language serves no purpose in plot.
I don't go to the movies for precisely this reason.

It could be argued that "...in the vast majority of Hollyweird products, sex, violence, and fowl language" IS the plot, in as much as after making money for those who prostitute all decency to make them, the main objective is to mainstream their values (or lack thereof).
Isn't that the truth. In fact, it's generally an interruption of a plot that would be more smooth without it.
My wife and I previewed Leap of Faith staring Steve Martin a number of years ago. In the previewed version there was a sex scene. After the viewing we were asked to give our views. I stood up and said the sex scene really added nothing to the movie and it would be better off without it. A number of other agreed. It was cut.
Once you cut out the sex, violence and language, most movies would only last 15 minutes.

You said it. Has anyone seen The Aviator?
At one point, every third word is "G-D-". And I mean, for a LONG time, and it is meant to make a point of some kind.
Somebody really had an axe to grind, it would seem.
In the vast majority of movies out today, the only redeaming features are the sex and violence!
In a related note, I just saw a movie that's absolutely terrific, although it's for adults, and deals with adult topics. "Must Love Dogs" was a terrific "couples" movie. OK, John Cusak has some stinky political views, but I've had a serious crush on Diane Lane since... Forever!
Plus, a costar is a Newfie!
