If I'm going to watch a sex scene it had better be because that's how Rey Bumblebee gets to Library Planet in order to acquire the Rock Stone. Because the plot is the only thing I care about.
I agree. I watched a show where two women were talking about work. One of them got up to change her top in the bathroom. For no reason for the plot, she takes her top off, giving us a topless shot of her in the mirror.
In fairness sex scenes can be used to derive character behaviour or morals. Whether they have healthy coping mechanisms, can be used to denote their own personal principles, chemistry, etc.
Not many shows or films handle that aspect well and do it simply for some kind of impact.
I agree, but they only need to show them getting into bed together, doing some foreplay, then cutting to after the sex. They don't need to show it in immense detail.
I feel that's where my comment of "for impact" comes in when it's overly gratuitous. That said I'd have more respect for filmmakers if they ran with undertones such as hesitancy or juxtaposed it against the surrounding environment such as an inappropriate place.
Imagining a whole temple where various treasures are locked behind different sex acts and they even have to call in assistance for some requiring more people than they have.
i have nothing against them, but ive always found sex scenes... uncomfortable. Probably just because im an extra dimensional being and we have no need for that stuff so reading about it always feels weirdly, exhibitive?
Congratulations, you've written your first porno! As a producer of fine pornos I have asked all of my directors to contact you to write their next films.
I agree. I believe that sed scenes CAN be done well if they further plot or character development, such as a character coming out of their shell, ot uncomfortable with their body/comfortable with their partner.
I agree but there also must be context to why it has to be this way otherwise it comes off as gratuitous. For example its justified here, as these explorers are raiding the pyramid of the great pharaoh, King Hoony En'mein, from the lost Hawtnbothad tribe.
I like seeing the moment characters finally get together, but nudity always makes me feel sad for the actors that have to pretend to be into it. Like, I wanna know the characters are happy and hooking up, but I'm also very good with the camera panning away out the window or whatever.

No different from depicting violence, economics, etc.

Infinitely more silly, but still engaging nonetheless
