People reacted similarly to "Shindler's List" - "How could they show that nudity scene during the selection process?!"
The brutal violence was ok, but non-sexual nudity was "OMG!"
Some people are just misguided twits. Or guided ones.
I look forward to seeing the Hansel & Gretel movie even moreso!

I will never understand how nipples, the very things that are biologically designed to feed children, are "unsuitable for children." America really needs to lighten up about boobies.
Crazy, isn't it? Shamefully, as far as I've been able to determine this particular bit of idiocy happened on this side of the big water.
Anyone remember the scene in
Look Who's Talking when one of Kirstie Allie's suitors looks at her then-pretty frontage and remarks to baby Bruce Willis about how they're thinking the same thing; to which baby Willis replies "Lunch!"
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I got told off on a public bus for nursing. I gave the person two choices: screaming, hungry baby for the 30+ minute ride -or- we nurse and no one sees anything, as the boob is completely covered by baby's head. He just gave me a nasty look and sat behind me.

Scenes of nudity must have threatened to trigger repressed memory of being fucked in the ass by priests or pastors.

That seems out of place for the kind of movie it is, but whatever, I'll totally watch it. Yay nudity!

Okay, can anyone explain why sexuality is considered far more inappropriate than violence? I'd really like to know.
