Hollywood Sex: Difference between revisions

 

=== Comic Books ===

* Lou Kagan's ''Perils Of Penelope'' contain many bondage scenes that pay no attention to gravity, skeletal structure, or any such pesky details.

 

* The hilarious [[Two-Person Pool Party]] in ''[[Showgirls]]'' is a particularly famous example.

* ''[[The Room]]'' famously features writer/director/star Tommy Wiseau thrusting enthusiastically somewhere around his partner's navel.

* The same thing happens in the film ''[[Drive Angry]]''. Though it is implied that Milton's partner is psychologically scarred by the experience.

* Basically, all commercial pornography. This makes sense if you think about it: in real sex, the purpose is the participants' pleasure; in porn, it's for the viewer's pleasure. Unfortunately, it's also many people's first exposure to "real life" sex, which can lead to those people thinking [[Reality Is Unrealistic]].

** Especially bad in homemade and amateur porn. Leave it to the pros, folks!

*** Conversely, amateur/homemade porn also often totally disregard the presence of the camera(s) or eventual viewers, averting this trope entirely.

* The infamous tent scene in ''[[Brokeback Mountain]]''. Not only did the scene have no natural build-up whatsoever, but anyone who has had anal sex knows you can't just spit on yourself and plow away. Just passionate dry-humping with the amount of preparation would have realistically ended in pain.

* In ''[[The Island]]'', [[Ewan McGregor|Lincoln]] and [[Scarlett Johansson|Jordan]] are clones who have been raised separate from normal people, and have no concept of love or sex. Doesn't stop them from having passionate sex near the end of the movie without any problems. Though a major plot point is that Lincoln has been receiving memories from his original donor, so it ''might'' be handwaved in his case at least.

* During the [[Wall-Bang Her]] sex-scene in ''[[Road House]]'', the relative positions of both Patrick Swayze's and Kelly Lynch's bodies either means either Swayze's wing-wang is two-and-a-half feet long, or else they were dry humping. Still a hot scene, mind, but physically impossible.

 

 

* In ''Kimi wa Pet'', one of Sumire and Hasumi's aborted attempts to finally have sex after months of being a couple goes disastrously wrong when Sumire gets a leg cramp and then Hasumi loses his composure and sustains a head wound from falling into some furniture. Furthermore, because Hasumi or other partners urge her for verbal feedback during sex, Sumire admits she doesn't always enjoy it and fakes climax on at least one occasion. One night much later Hasumi has some problems keeping it up. Although he claims it's due to drinking too much alcohol, {{spoiler|their relationship already seems to be falling apart and it really foreshadows their break-up.}}

* ''[[B Gata H Kei]]'' portrays not only the (almost) sex itself as awkward and difficult, but the relationship leading up to it, too.

* The French comic ''[[Dreamland]]'' mostly averts this when the protagonist and his girlfriend have their first time. While it "ends well" for both of them, the beginning is quite awkward, with Terrence putting his condom the wrong way at first for example.
