View Full Version : Triple X
Saw XXX this afternoon. It was pretty good. A lot of actions. Very much like a Bond flick but with less boobs.
What's neat was Vin Disel wore a black Joe Rocket Phoenix jacket in the movie!

Too, bad.
With Vin's ugly mug, ya need the boobs...
Vin's got some boobs... pecs.. whatever.
There were some neat dirtbike stunts. I sorta know how to snowboard and drive. It makes me want to learn how to ride dirt in order to become a secret agent... (besides growing a couple feet taller and gaining a few lbs of muscle)

Saw XXX just an hour or so ago.
I expected to go and hate it ... I don't like movies like that generally, and well ... I walked away a satisfied customer. Although there was a bit too much of that "i think i'm too fucking kewl so i'm going to swing my balls around and making gruntings noises" type male ego talking, it was still an interesting movie ... visually ... why the fuck he decided to drive a POS american muscle car, i dunno ... he had all these other AWESOME cars to drive that would have cornered better ... but noooo ... he had to go with the thing that's "IN" right now ... but any way ...
I also was really really impressed with the lack of gratitius sex in the movie. I realize everyone else on the face of the planet is probably disappointed. But I feel, when a movie comes out that stereotypically uses sex to sell, but focuses on other stuff, and brings the sex stuff in, in a way that is actually much more realistic ... then the people making the movie are showing that they feel secure in the idea that they are making a GOOD movie ... and the confidence in the creators of this movie DEFINATELY showed ...
There were some hot "wanna be" russian guys too .. heh.
The only thing that really got me, it made me laugh a lot, is that their russian made very little sense. They used a lot of words at inappropriate times ... such as right after he killed a bunch of people, he said preevyet droozya ... and then something in english, and what he said in russian is "hello friends", and it TOTALLY did not make sense in context. I think they meant to say goodbye friends, and failed.
Sometimes he said the correct stuff, such as when he answered the phone in the morning, he said "ya slooshayoo, kto gavoreet?" which is "i'm sleeping, who is speaking?" ... the prononciation was actually quite good, good enough that I was not sure if he actually spoke russian outside the movie (the actor has a slavic last name, so it's possible) ...
any way ... (i doubt anyone cares about that) ...
the avalanche scene was irritating, partially cuz' of all the noise, and partially cuz' it was poorly done ... but most everything else was kewl ... i was VERY into the initial scene w/the car flying off the bridge. some of the dirt bike scenes made me laugh hysterically because he looked like a grasshopper bouncing around ... but it was kewl to be able to recognize the various techniques being used (since i got to do dirt bike riding yesterday, i'm like a specialist or something now ... hehe) ...
i was surprised i liked it... i never saw fast & furious ... dunno that i ever will ...
this movie was massively lacking in the STREET BIKE scenes tho' ... dammit. the only times they showed street bikes, is when they were coming to a stop.
I also was really really impressed with the lack of gratitius sex in the movie.
You were impressed by that? I almost asked for my money back. :D

Like I said, I know I'm the only person on the face of the earth that would feel like I do.

A guy's chest should never ever positively ever be referred to as BOOBS....that is, unless the guy has a serious case of biznitch tizits...or something. Heh. Hell even tits should not be referred to as boobs unless you're a girl or you're gay.sheesh come ON people....

It was the probably the only one they could afford to wreck after all they spent on stunt guys and insurance. ;)

Hmmm ... perhaps lingo has changed over the years??
If a guy referred to my breasts/boobs as tits, I'd be a bit offended. It's a vulgar word ... totally associated with "fuck" and porn ... I remember TITS being the NORM when I was a kid ... but now boobs seem to be the more acceptable word. Besides, the word tits only really sounds good coming out of someone's mouth if they have a New York or Boston type accent.
Guys definately have boobs ... they aren't child feeding udders like women have ... no ... but they've got boobs. I happen to ENJOY guy boobs ... and have referred to them as boobs for many a year now .. other chicks call them boobs too.
I mean... chicks who are very flat chested ... having basically only nipple, still have "boobs" just relatively little amounts of it ... so guys have boobs too ... they are just guy boobs ... and guy boobs are kewl ... heh heh yeah ... (neeeeeple) ...
:D

No there is a clear distinction between boobage and pecs. At the very least, you won;t be flattering your guy friends by calling them boobs, you might as well say they have bitch tits. :)
I should think the term 'breasts' is non-offensive...tits is a bit of a slang term anyhoo, and as I said, only chicks and gay men refer to them as boobs hehe.
Men don't give a shit about semantics ;)

I just don't agree with you. The words I use have worked just fine for me and for others ... guys don't seem to mind when I'm crawling up there body looking rather evily at them and growl "boobs" before chomping down ... and if a guy was gonna be a priss about something like that, he's not for me ...
I've never been in a relationship with a guy who refers to my boobs as tits.
Breasts can be applicable to both genders, but is non sexual/erotic. Tits is sexual in a porn way ... boobs is just like ... "uh huh huh ... thingies" ...
I seriously think you are behind the times ... "boobs" is very in.
