Marriage is not sexy.
That's the conclusion that readers might make after examining Entertainment Weekly's list of the "50 Sexiest Movies Ever."
Of the 50 movies on the list, 42 center on unmarried adult relationships. Three of the relationships featured on the list occur between two women ("Kissing Jessica Stein," "Bound," and "Mulholland Drive"), one occurs between two men ("Yossi & Jagger") and one is a bisexual web of past and current relationships ("Basic Instinct").
None of the movies depicts a normal, loving married couple in an everyday situation. The three "sexy" movies on the list that did address martial sex were "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" (in which Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie play rival assassins hired to kill each other), "Don't Look Now" (a horror movie in which the sex scene had to be trimmed to avoid an X-rating), and "300" (a comic book movie).
And while marriage may not be sexy by Hollywood's standards, adultery certainly is. Movies about adulterous relationships appeared on the list 14 different times, more than quadruple the number of times marriage appeared. Movies such as "The Bridges of Madison County," "Unfaithful," " The Postman Always Rings Twice" (Jack Nicholson's version), "Body Heat" and "American Gigolo" all made the list.
Four movies focused on teen sex. "Y Tu Mama Tambien," a Mexican film about two teen boys taking a road trip with an older woman, features a scene in which the trio engages in a threesome, complete with a kiss between the two boys. "Cruel Intentions" features a kiss between two girls as well as depictions of various characters engaged in sexual activity. "Dirty Dancing" depicts sex between a teen girl and an older man. "Maurice," set in early 20th Century England, explores homosexuality in teen boys.
EW also accompanied each movie listing with its "sexiest moment." Not surprisingly, sex scenes were the sexiest moment in 15 of the movies listed. Interestingly though, the list makers recognized the power of language, as evidenced by conversations ranking second with eight "sexiest" moments being conversations or quips by movie characters. Included is the following exchange between Cary Grant and Rosalind Russell as ex-spouses in "His Girl Friday:"
Grant (as Walter Burns): Want my fingerprints?
Russell (as Hildy Johnson): No thanks. I've still got those.
Kisses were the sexiest moments in six movies and touching was sexiest in four movies while exhibitionism was sexiest in three.
EW's movie list mirrors what's on TV. A Parents Television Council study in 2007 found that verbal references to non-marital sex outnumbered marital references by nearly 3 to 1. For every four television scenes that depicted or implied sex between unmarried couples, only one scene showed similar scenes between married couples.
PTC President Tim Winter said following the release of the study that "many in Hollywood are actively seeking to undermine marriage by consistently showing it in a negative manner."
As with its fictional counterparts, Entertainment Weekly's unspoken message is that married sex is non-existent or simply a fantasy.

Sexy marriages
November 27, 2008 - 13:01 ET by shawn228Well Colleen, according to your heading EW is delibertately singling out on screen married couples as boring.
That is not the case. Some of the scenes they singled out are very sexy and I do not believe they picked them just because they were not married.
I personally cannot think of many sexy scenes off the top of my head of on screen married couples except for Mr. and Mrs Smith.

That's because they don't portray any.....
You just proved the point.
motherbelt
November 27, 2008 - 13:17 ET by shawn228The point of the article is EW taking the sexiness out of marriage. From what it looks like, they just picked out the sexiest scenes from movies and did not purposely exclude married couples.
Another point to the article is Hollywood is trying to undermine traditional marriage. No one is trying is trying to do that, No one is forcing anyone to agree with their positions, just like I do not believe abstinence only people, try to undermine fornicators. ;-)

Rethinking, I see what you
November 27, 2008 - 13:26 ET by motherbeltRethinking, I see what you are saying: that EW didn't take the sexy marriage out of movies; the movie makers did; so it seems we agree.
As for Hollywood trying to undermine traditional marriage, I don't think you can say "no one is trying to do that."
It's well known that Hollywood moguls make the kind of movies they want; not necessarily what the public wants. That's proven by the fact that they continually crank out R rated films when G and PG are bigger at the box office.
Bottom line motherbelt is money
November 27, 2008 - 13:37 ET by shawn228They want to put out shows that will turn a profit for their company. Unfortunately man studios believe sex and violence is the way to bring home the bacon.
Just like conservative talk radio. I do not agree with liberals saying the evil owners like Clear Channel have a right wing agenda. They want to turn a profit as well. Rush, Hannity and Dr. Laura have a crazy following and make the radio stations a ton of money.
No one is being forced to listen to right wing radio, just like no one is being forced to watch Hollywood movies.

Now Shawn, how does that explain "Lions for Lambs" and the tons of anti-war films that hollywood cranks out one after another? Plus, most of the top ranking films every year are PG or PG-13 films.

I can't explain Jerry
November 27, 2008 - 14:04 ET by shawn228Just like I can't explain Waterworld or Last Action Hero. Now if your talking about political movies like W or Lions for Lambs I would agree with you, but not about trying to weed out marriage.

November 27, 2008 - 13:41 ET by cocodrieYou're right about Harry met Sally - never saw Drew's movie. It used to be you could judge a movie by the stars that were in it but those days are gone. Now the stars seem to all be in the same chamber pot.
It is not a formal conspiracy of plotting togrther it is all of them presenting their corrupt morals as the standard of society. Young impressionable people are their prime target.

November 27, 2008 - 13:28 ET by cocodrieUnfortunately there is such an agenda in Hollywood. A perfect example is Disney. Since the board has been dominated by homosexuals the moral content has plummeted. The studio that was the standard for family and children's movies is now making movies hardly suitable for even adults.
say what?
November 27, 2008 - 15:05 ET by SQL_SamCoco, I know what you mean - when I saw Wall-E all I could do is think to myself - look at the homosexual robots..... <sarcasm off>
Now on a serious note, please inform me (meaning I want EXAMPLES) on this suppossed "moral content has plummeted" statement. I didnt see one example of this given by you - except for your statement of apparent homophobic fear of homosexuals running a company (which I thought was way off by the way). I believe they would be fired just like any person would if they don't show a profit - but that's just me. If you think Disney is so immoral then don't own Disney Stock, it's a publically traded company you know - or better yet, buy 51% of the stock and re-org the company, until that time you just sound like you are homophobic.....
I'll wait with baited breath for your examples of these immoral movies - and just because they don't make money doesnt make them immoral - just makes them bad movies.
tick tock, tick tock, tick tock (is it me waiting for a reply, or is it from that gay movie Peter Pan with that apparent homo in those green tights)
Good evening SQL_Sam
November 27, 2008 - 21:55 ET by cocodrieWalt Disney is closely associsted with Hollywood Supports which is a homosexual promotional group. This group and Disney together put on "Gay Day" at Disney World. Many people are offended by the public display of sexual activity,
Disney sued a kindergarten for painting Disney characters on its walls. It did nothing however when Gay Chicago Magazine portrayed Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck as homosexual lovers and Minnie and Daisy as lesbian lovers.
Movies include "Priest which promotes homosexuality and bashes the catholic church and priests.
Disney through Hyperion Press publishes books aimed at recruiting youngsters into the homosexual lifestyle
I consider all this to be deplorable moral standards.
Homophobic, a word made up in 1969 which literaly should mean fear of mankind. Are you heterophobic?
Hey Coco
November 28, 2008 - 14:59 ET by SQL_SamSorry I couldn't respond earlier - Thanksginving and all.
"Movies include "Priest which promotes homosexuality and bashes the catholic church and priests."
Can you give me the name of the movie again? I tried going on the IMDB and couldn't find a movie named "priest". And about bashing the catholic church and priest - when it comes to homosexuality with the apparent rash of incidents of molestations I say let them be bashed, let them be fired, let them go to jail, but apparently just shuffling them around is just Oki-doki in your book? interesting and hypocritical at the same time......
I looked up hyperion books, this is from there web site:
Hyperion Books, which was founded in 1991, publishes general-interest fiction and non-fiction books for adults under the following imprints: Hyperion, Voice, ESPN Books, Miramax Books, Hyperion East, ABC Daytime Press, Hyperion AudioBooks.
Hyperion is the home of numerous bestselling novels, including Mitch Albom’s The Five People You Meet in Heaven and For One More Day; Candace Bushnell’s Trading Up and Lipstick Jungle; and Laura Moriarty’s The Rest of Her Life. Our bestselling memoirs include J. R. Moehringer’s The Tender Bar; Duane “Dog” Chapman’s You Can Run But You Can’t Hide, and Bob Newhart’s I Shouldn’t Even Be Doing This. We are the home to influential business books like Chris Anderson’s The Long Tail; self-help books like Dr. Phil McGraw’s Relationship Rescue and the Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff library; and celebrity chefs like Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson, and Dave Lieberman.
Hyperion Books is distributed by HarperCollins Publishers.
Wow that is INCREDIBLE - all that homosexual recruiting all over the place!! *rolls eyes* When are you going to start asking for the book burning?
I gotta ask are you being serious? I'm sorry the writing is on the wall (to me at least) is that you are indeed a homophobe aka fear the homosexuals (and I dont care when the term was created or first used - that isnt even relevent now is it?) and to answer your question no I'm not heterophobic at all - my wife laughed at that one....
I'm not trying to piss you off by any means, but I wont be a hater just to be a hater. I might not understand other peoples actions but I wont cast the first stone either - it seems you're out of stones and looking for more rocks.
Evening Sam you neglected to mention
November 29, 2008 - 17:49 ET by cocodrieEvening Sam you neglected to mention Disney actively promoting "Gay Day" and allowing its characters to be publicly portrayed as homosexual.
The Movie Priest was made by Miramax who also made Fahrenheit 911. Disney is making all manner of indecent movies through its different studios.
The book Growing Up Gay amongst others was published by Hyperion, another Disney company.
These things in my opinion shows a definite sharp decline in moral standing. If you don't think so, we have a different view of morality.
Making some good movies and printing some good books does not excuse Disney from promoting and supporting the immorality they are spreading.
The catholic church needs to crack down and have the perverts properly punished. That said however, there is a nuch higher incidence os child molestation by teachers that needs to be addressed.

Today's movies have no class, neither do the "stars".

November 28, 2008 - 10:09 ET by amberPride and Prejudice when Mr. Darcy gets his marriage proposal turned down and then after they get married (the one with Kiera Knightly)
It's a Wonderful Life (there are a few of them there, but the Honeymoon scene is good)
Cinderella Man (there are quite a few in there)
We Were Soldiers (they had a very sexy relationship)
Lord of the Rings (samwise and that bar chick when he finally gets up the courage, arwen and aragorn when he left and when she came back)
There are a lot more, but my movie library is in another room. The point, I think, is that there are not very many movies that depict wholesome relationships in a sexy manner. Or, that depict true love and devotion in a sexy manner. The "sexy" things hollywood chooses to focus on are about lust and self gratification, not love. That should not surprise anyone, though, after all, how many hollywood people even know what love is? They would have to know what self sacrifice was first and most of them are egomaniacs.
Missing the real issue
November 27, 2008 - 12:22 ET by respectfulconservativeYou claim that entertainment weekly's list is the problem. The real problem is the lack of movies about the sexuality of married couples. Sex is always portrayed in movies as a relationship starter not a relationship strengthener.
This is only partially about any particular ideology regarding sex. It is more that new is exciting and thus hollywood and the entertainment media are obsessed with novelty. It takes more effort to portray exciting sexuality in a fictional work about a long-term marraige just as it takes effort to sustain such sexuality in real life.
The real elephant in the room is that very few movies are pitched at marraige age adults or older people anymore. They are mostly pitched at adolescents who spend the most money on tickets and have the most free time.

November 28, 2008 - 10:20 ET by amberSo sorry
I've been married for almost 9 years and I am really happy with my decision to get married. I feel for people who lose the spark in the marriage. I have to say, though. It is not marriage that does it. It's children. They tire you out. It is also communication, people need to tell people what will put them in the mood, women especially. You have to let your wife know she turns you on a few times a day by a goofy look, a slap on the rear, a nice long hug. Then, in about 2 days, it will pick up again. I could go on, but I do not want to hijack this thread or make it creapy.
Good morning amber
November 28, 2008 - 10:48 ET by cocodrieGlad you are enjoying your marriage. One reason some people are not satisfied with marriage is that they do not properly understand what marriage really is. Marriage does not revolve around one particular desire of either person.
You are right about the ups and downs and the kids. The wife and I with 2 kids traveled down life's road together for 42 years. At times it was rough, at times it was great. Movies give a false view of sex and marriage. The relationship between the two people determines the success of the marriage.
When I was first married an older relative explained it to me like this. "Marriage is like your favorite pair of shoes. You break them in and make them comfortable and when they get worn you resole them and you have new shoes without giving up the old ones".
God bless
kids, well, they do move
November 28, 2008 - 14:47 ET by amberkids, well, they do move out eventually. I love mine to death, though.

November 28, 2008 - 10:58 ET by motherbeltI have been married for 38 years...to the same man. LOL
It's true...sometimes the spark goes away. That's what the "vows" are for. You agree to stay even when the spark is lacking. It's easy to stay as long as things are exciting, but over the long haul, there are times when it's tough, and you dig your heels in and hang on until they get better. They always do.
As for this line:
You have to let your wife know she turns you on a few times a day by a goofy look, a slap on the rear, a nice long hug.
Helping with the dishes doesn't hurt either! LOL

why sorry?
November 28, 2008 - 15:18 ET by SQL_SamI dont recall saying I was unhappy? Let me re-read my post.... nope didn't say that, just that the sex seems to disappear - or let me put it another way "the woman" seems to not be in the mood more often then the guy. But it is interesting how you put the two together isnt it? This should be a disscussion in itself I guess. And why should the "guy" have to do anything different to "spark" the relationship - I believe making the commitment and vows would have been enough? (it was for me). Hmmmm seems to me the woman is never satisfied - maybe they are just nutts..... (I was kidding btw please dont explode on me, was just trying to make a point that 99% of married men tend to agree with)
Wow. I honestly can't wait
November 28, 2008 - 15:24 ET by sherylsimsWow. I honestly can't wait to see what responses you get to that post. I know quite a few women who feel as though their husbands don't want to have sex as often as they want to. But you are probably right, the tendency seems to be the other way. Honestly I believe women tend to feel less sexy after they become mothers and their bodies have changed and their hormones have changed and sex becomes another "duty" rather than letting someone just enjoy her and her enjoy him. I think motherhood has the most to do with it, but that is just my opinion. If it is important enough to her she will figure out ways to deal with it.

November 28, 2008 - 16:14 ET by choselife3xThis thread just got interesting!
Another issue is timing. I'm a morning person, but my husband prefers night time nooky!
We have 3 small children (3 yrs 8 months, 21 months, and 7 weeks) so we obviously compromise :).
Mothering hormones do conflict with wifey hormones, but that's nothing a little time doesn't take care of.
I'd say my husband and I are 50/50 on the 'in the mood' issue, but mostly we just need to remember to take the time to enjoy each other.
Single vs married I'm not qualified to answer on, I was a good girl till I was married so I get 100% more!

November 28, 2008 - 16:23 ET by sherylsimsYep, I am also a "morning person" and by the time I get to bed at night I am exhausted and all I can think of is SLEEP! When my children were very small I had an enforced naptime and for at least an hour every day we all laid down and took naps. That helped give me the energy to do the wifey thing in the evening. But mornings are always much better. I think a lot of husbands don't really understand how much goes into taking care of a house and kids (and some women do that and a job outside as well) so they don't get the whole, "I'm tired" thing. My husband sits at a desk all day and seems to have most of his energy in the evening.
But we have been married 30 years and have 4 kids so I guess we must have done something right here and there.

November 28, 2008 - 16:44 ET by sherylsimsI remember "touch overload" vividly. I was laughing yesterday because my daughter (who is pregnant with her second child) was in the kitchen trying to get stuff done for TG and her one yr old was holding on to both of her legs so when she had to move she had to do a really stifled penguin walk so as not to knock her down. It was really fun to watch because it wasn't ME. I told her it was just what she gets cuz she used to do the exact same thing to me when she was that age.
: ) they call that kharma, right?

Of course like cute little kittens who grow up to be CATS they grow into adolescents and teenagers. But if you hang in there long enough, that too passes and they become very interesting and wonderful adults. (who bring more cute babies into your life)

November 28, 2008 - 18:38 ET by choselife3xI told him how awful it is to be a middle child. :) He is the oldest of 2 boys and the idea of having more than 2 seemed strange to him at first. Our third turned out to be a boy so I think he was glad we didn't stop at 2!
Enjoy those grandbabies, my mother-in-law has 2 sons and ended up with 3 granddaughters and 2 grandsons so far. That is one happy woman!

Marriage "not sexy"?
November 28, 2008 - 08:50 ET by moderncommentaries83Well, knock me down with a feather.
I think marriage is a wonderful institution, and that it needs to be respected and treated with seriousness by our culture and our laws. Forgive me for going religious, by in my perspective, marriage is not only a sacrament, but a vocation.
That is, some people have a calling toward marriage, just like some have a calling toward religious life.
But marriage isn't for everyone. This article is right in that marriage loses some of its shimmer after the "I do's" are over and the cake is cut. Why? BECAUSE MARRIAGE IS HARD WORK.
It takes a daily, selfless, self-giving committment to remain married to your husband/wife. Marriage - contrary to pop culture - is not about the other person does or can do for you, but about what you can do and are willing to sacrifice for that person. This means giving of yourself totally and completely in all things.
So no, as a woman married just over 3 years, it isn't all Hollywood fantasy land. But I have a husband who is devoted to me, a young son and (hopefully, one day) more children who we adore, and a family structure which will support me through all of life's ups and downs. In the few years we've been married, my husband was laid off from two jobs, suffered some rather severe depression over one of them, his grandmother has passed away, his mother is now very ill, and it's a struggle to make ends meet most months. But we work, we pray, we love, and we support one another and we'll get through this.
THAT'S what marriage is about. Sex is a bonus.
(By the way, with all the bruhaha over the passage of Prop. 8, does anyone else here find it more than just a teensy bit ironic that marriage is so boring, but we need to radically alter the definition to include same-sex marriage?)
Aut viam inveniam aut faciam

November 28, 2008 - 11:16 ET by sherylsimsDid anyone here see the movie Fireproof? It was a realistic look at marriage (and very well done) and showed just what you said, Marriage is hard work! But very sexy and romantic here and there. Hollywood has no concept of this because they want a beginning, middle and ending to their story, and they want to start it out with sex, and where do you go from there? It is rare to see a movie realistically portray marriage and sex that people will pay to see.
