wow, I never caught the weird LGBT slur at the end of the “excessive machine” clip. is it just me?
non-sequitor, not totally off-topic:
catching that faggot slur in regard to Jane Fonda and the sex machine is tres ironic, after just yesterday having a chat with a 40-year-old gay man (total stranger, in a flower shop) who’d just had his first time *ever* penis-vagina sex (and cunnilingus — and he said he LOVED it and couldn’t wait to do it again). that was a hell of a conversation, I tell ya. I asked him how he prepared — there was video watching. lesbian quizzing and note-taking. after we chatted he bought me 4 extremely long stemmed red roses. it was one of the most amazing conversations of my life…
The title sequence would be even cooler if she were actually in 0g, and not just rolling around on the floor being filmed from above. Ah well.
Hey, for 1968 that’s a pretty darned good zero-G effect.
Oddly enough, those two clips — the zero-G striptease and the burning-out of the orgasmatron — are the only two parts of the movie I’ve ever seen. And yet I’ve seen both of those sequences multiple times.
Despite which I’d never caught the “faggot” line before, either. Not only is it weird in context, it’s oddly nonsensical. I mean, if a guy expends all of his, let us say effort, upon a woman and then goes limp — as guys are wont to do in that situation — nobody would suggest that he’s turned gay. He’s just… tired.
Perhaps the orgasmatron just needs to take a breather for fifteen or twenty minutes and then try again :)
@R- I agree with that last bit. My boyfriend is like that. He goes completely flat after exerting all his energy. Not gay, just tired.
The excessive machine bit was interesting. The 0g bit would be interesting to see filmed with the current technology.
I think someone may have missed the OTHER definition of faggot which is a big bundle of sticks or branches, usually meant for use as firewood.
He’s talking about the tubes burning so it makes sense.
Yes, when Durand Durand (Milo O’Shea) says, “The energy cables are shrinking! You’ve turned them into faggots,” it’s a pun on the double meaning of “faggot.”
“Perhaps the orgasmatron just needs to take a breather for fifteen or twenty minutes and then try again.” I guess that all depends on whether it’s a brand-new machine or an old one.
