>>> "The degeneracy of this society is shown by the way people bullshit themselves into thinking they're doing something beneficial when they're doing something reprehensible. Like when people applaud and give Oscars to movie directors who fuck 13 year-old girls up the ass." <<<Sorry to venture off topic, but you brought this up. I assume you are refering to Roman Polanski, because he's the only Oscar winning Director that I can think of who has been accused of anything that vile. He fled rather than face prosecution as I recall, but was granted asylum in France because the evidence was flimsy at best (i.e., basically a he said she said kind of deal).
FYI, in this country right now anybody can accuse anyone of just about anything and potentially get them arrested and incarcerated and in some cases there won't even be an opportunity for the accused to defend him/herself. Sorry Tom, but to me THAT is degeneracy, not wild accusations and innuendoes.
FTR, I don't care for gory movies either, but the violence in Sin City doesn't offend me nearly as much as movies like Natural Born Killers where the REAL bad guys are depicted as misunderstood heroes. That, is degeneracy in my book! Sin City, OTOH, has a solid moral foundation in spite of it's violent aspects and clearly drawn good and evil characters.
BTW, maybe I just missed it, but you never actually described your impressions of Sin City. I assume that you did see it before drawing your conclusions.
