You're probably right, Dan. I might have been a little too vehement in
stating my opinions without watching the film, but the very idea that
someone would do this using LEGOs appalls me.


Legos were not meant to be used in digital films filled with smut, they were >meant for enhancing creativity through building and designing.

I'm with you, Curt, but what is smut? Who decides? Back in the days on the
"I Love Lucy" show, they didn't even dare to show Lucy and Ricky, a married
couple, in their bed together.

That also is a good point. I believe that what defines morality is what goes
against one's conscience. I also believe that society's standards can affect
the conscience only to a certain degree.

I hope nobody flames me for this, but if they do, I will still stand by my >opinions.

No flames here, Curt. You've got a right to speak your mind. All I suggest
is taking a look at the stuff first and then tell us what you think and why.
Better to know specifically what you're condemning rather than follow the
crowd or someone else's interpretation of something. People see things
differently, trust your own eyes and heart :)

Well, I have no intention of watching the films, but I will refrain from
calling it "smut", and "trash". Nevertheless, I still believe that
displaying LEGOs doing things like this (the things mentioned the first post
on this thread, quoted from the news article) is not right.
