This heat just ain't right.

Wasn't there a rule about no nudity in the tournament because of situations just like this?

Yeah. I debated this scene and the "Requiem for a Dream" scene and finally decided that the nudity was secondary to the scene. I'm kind of second-guessing that decision now, but the ship has sailed. Hopefully Silence of the Lambs will rally hard and take its rightful place in Round 3.

Phoebes titties were the first ones I had ever seen on TV.
I just sat there with my mouth open when I saw it.

On TV? As in mainstream TV? Or was this Skinemax or something?

Back when I was in high school, cable arrived in my town, which was a big deal. Every once in a while they'd make the pay channels available for free, and there was some channel that had late-night movies that featured some nudity and what you might call very softcore porn. It was an eye-opener for me.

Well, that was dumb.

I assumed that everyone would recognize that it was an introspective commentary on male insecurity.

There's far more to the Fast Times scene other than just the boobies.
This is representation of fantasies that the majority of adolescent men have had since the peace that came at the end of WWII.
There's a comfort to it.
Most of us have had a similar fantasy to the one depicted in this scene.
Some of us have even gotten laid.
Of those, some have gotten to live their version of this fantasy.

This scene is special, wholesome, and should be viewed as a slice of Americana.

You are correct. These people. :shake:

Phoebe Cates

Yep, lost to boobs.

Hard to believe the number of 13 year olds on this board voting for "Oh, the first time I ever saw titties!"...

OMG, grow up and watch movies with the grownups...

Silence of the Lambs was easily the best scene in this collection...

A great scene falls, and some minor T&A moves on. Fast Times progresses to Round 3.
