Sandy:

I had a pretty big argument with a fellow member on another list over the 
naked thing. That person was very disappointed that Dan was not shown completely 
nude in the bath scene in GOF. I said that I hoped that Dan would NEVER do a 
nude scene in anything... period. Perhaps it's my age, but I remember when 
movies were damned good without people being shown naked or in explicit sex 
scenes, and I don't want to see anyone I like and respect as much as I do Dan 
involved in that kind of thing. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a prude -- far from it, 
but I don't think nudity or explicit sex have added anything good to movies. 
I'm from a generation that considered that pornography. It is especially 
disheartening that Dan isn't even an adult yet and is already getting into the 
nudity thing (sigh).
