man that's tough. fire walk with me for sure, but for sex scenes that aren't terrifying sexual assault scenes maybe portrait of a lady on fire? i can think of a few others, the handmaiden, moonlight, etc. in general, i think most sex scenes in otherwise good movies don't bring down the quality of the movie as long as it makes sense for the characters. people fuck! it happens! if done artfully it can enhance your understanding of the characters, and even if not handled perfectly as long as it makes sense it takes a decent amount to get too gratuitous for me

that's not to say i'm cool with all horny bullshit in movies or tv, there's so much anime out there that needs to have tits shoved awkwardly on screen regularly. but when an anime reads like the creators know what sex is then it doesn't bug me that much. chainsaw man is horny but i don't mind it. chainsaw man is made better by how it handles its horniness imo. in general as long as sexuality is handled with care it's no worse than any other element that could show up in a film

also a lot of people act like there are tons of movies with sex in them, and that just isn't the case. i mean, not anymore at least. they show up, but the vast majority of hollywood blockbusters are completely sexless

You could make this point about any kind of scene in a movie.

I just realized this a is a hot dog a sandwich discourse and regret looking at it.

i mean yeah. i just don't think sex scenes are fundamentally that different from non-sex scenes, though clearly some people do
