As a woman, I find it very offensive. You watch movies to escape from reality for a few hours, not to be bombarded with shit that actually happens in real life. That's why I normally stick with rom-coms! Why does the ratings board allow it? I watched a documentary about them and they seemed kind of anti-women. They allow brutal rapes to be shown in movies, but cut out scenes in which women are in a state of pleasure. Like a movie with Jane Fonda back in the day. All it showed was her face and she was obviously getting oral, but they didn't show that. She just had a look of pleasure on her face and the ratings board thought that was too much!

The rape is the stage for the entire movie it has a very valid point in it.

IF anything it seems you'd be offended by American Pie and the 'exploitation' of the female form. Women are always expected to drop the towel, men it gets a WAY tough rating or is 'comedy'.

I find that offensive to. There is way too much female nudity in movies, where's all the naked guys?! But I've watched movies that had rape scenes in them, and it was completely unnecessary. They just threw it in there either for "entertainment" or to disrespect women. They need to rate rape. Not all movies with rape list it in the ratings grid. I wouldn't watch a movie if that was in the rating.

The original was more shoddily made and acted, but that almost made the rape scenes [there was more than one] worse, somehow.

You watch movies to escape from reality for a few hours, not to be bombarded with shit that actually happens in real life. That's why I normally stick with rom-coms! Movies are an art form and most filmmakers use film to express that or to make a statement. Movies aren't just to let the viewer escape from reality. In fact, most filmmakers try to shove the bad stuff right up in your face in order to make you FEEL something or feel for the characters. If that's not what you want, maybe you should stick to only one genre or PG rated films.

I don't think it's necessary to show a graphic rape scene in order to make viewers feel something for the characters. The most disturbing scene I have ever seen was in the movie 'In the Gardens of the Night' and the rape was never shown on camera it was simply implied. The scene that is shown is of a little girl crying on the bed afterward and to me that was more powerful than if they had shown the actual rape.

Basically. Let the director decide whats necessary or needed in their film. For the record, I watched the scene the OP is referring to. It was very well done and definitely made me uncomfortable and feel for the girl. However, no rape scene I have ever seen tops Jodie Foster in The Accused. That scene was brutal, disgusting, very uncomfortable etc. Joanathan Kaplan definitely threw that one right in your face and didn't let up on you at all. You're forced to sit there and watch the entire, long, drawn out thing and it makes you angry at how many people saw or knew what was going on and did nothing to stop it. That scene will make you feel something whether you want to or not. Kudos to Jodie and Jonathan Kaplan on that one.
