..aka Littleman

So marlon wayans plays this little guy who disguises himself as a baby to get away from the cops and a couple takes him in. In the middle of the night he jumps into bed with the wife, and thinking that hes the husband they have sex.. multiple times even.
Is this not one of the most disturbing scenes in cinema history? what were they thinking.

 

[Ferrio]

Arguing this would be admitting you watched it.

 

[Timedog]

What movie?

 

[Ivan 3414]

I haven't seen this movie, so please clarify: what makes this rape? That she had sex with someone other than her husband?

 

[Sectorseven]

I forgot this movie existed.

 

[Milchjon]

Isn't there something similar in Tom Hanks' Big?

I remember being weirded out at some point of that movie.

 

[woolley]

Is it rape if she was a willing participant?

 

[shadyspace]

That's legally not rape.

 

[Mesousa]

Arguing this would be admitting you watched it.

LMAO!

 

[Cuphead]

oh yeah this movie

 

[chertipros]

Don't think about this too hard. In the context of a goofy comedy movie where a ton of other ridiculous shit happens this is just another goofy ridiculous thing to happen. The goal of the scene wasn't to make you think "damn did she get raped?" Its to make you look at the irony of the situation and laugh. Little man was so abstract and unbased in reality that it doesn't feel so weird to look at the scene and not immediately think rape. Shit I never even thought about it until you brought it up but its not vile or horrifying because its not to be taken seriously
Edit: to clarify I'm not saying its not taasteless, just not disturbing or horrible

 

[Nokagi]

I believe they were going for comedy. But the Wayans fail at that a lot so it's understandable if it wasn't funny.

"The Wayans' brothers? You mean there is more of them?"

 

[Spinluck]

what were they thinking.

Rather than this scene, this question asked of the movie itself.

So like Marlon Wayans is this 40 year old midget and then Carrie Washington and the other Wayans adopt him because they cant have kids I think and they think he's a baby. Theres a scene when he leaves his crib or something and has sex with Carrie, thinking it is her husband.

Strange thing to obsess about OP but whatever.

 

[kirblar]

That's legally not rape.

iirc, there was an actual legal case regarding this where a (drunk?) guy walked into his GF's roommates room and they ended up sleeping together, but I don't remember how it turned out.

 

[dekline]

I thought that thing on his eye in the first pic was a dead pixel

 

[GorillaJu]

Most disturbing scene in cinema history.

Yes, definitely what you said.

 

[karasu]

A dude did this with his bosses wife in a WildCats comic by tricking her with telepathy. Frequently.

 

[Slammin_Hammon]

Wait a second, is putting your face on a midget as offensive to midgets as blackface is to African Americans?

 

[ElTopo]

"The Wayans' brothers? You mean there is more of them?"

I know of Keenan Ivory, Damon, Marlon, and Shawn. I think they have a sister and possibly another brother. Then there's even more when you factor in their kids like Damon JR.

 

[QuiteWhittle]

In complete darkness, a midget(disguised as an abandoned baby) sneaks into the foster parents' bed and has sex with the wife. The wife is "willing" because she believed the baby was her husband, who was soundly asleep.

I really don't see how this isn't sexual assault.

 

[temp]

Well this thread has revealed people have interesting discrepancies in what they consider rape.

 

[DECK'ARD]

Is the film as shit as this thread makes it sound?

Its actually not. Its the difference between two different legal concepts called fraud in the inducement and fraud in the factum.

If a guy convinces a girl to have sex with him because he says his penis cures cancer - it is not considered rape. If a guy tells a girl to close her eyes and he's going to insert a special device that will cure her cancer - it is rape. The difference between fraud in the factum and fraud in the inducement is what the fraud relates to - the act itself or something collateral.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

Rather than this scene, this question asked of the movie itself.

It has to be asked of whoever keeps watching the garbage these guys put out.

 

[uncredited male]

Y'all ain't supposed to use that word no more.

 

[crimzonflame]

It's a line from Chappelle Show.

 

[Ferrio]

Wait wait, wouldn't she technically be raping a little kid?

 

[Dram]

Didn't she end up getting pregnant?

 

[Enilced2]

If I recall revenge of the nerds did something like this. Nerd dresses up in a Halloween costume and sleeps with jocks girlfriend who thinks it's the jock. But she's cool with it after he reveals it's him because he was so good at it.... I think that's how it went down.

Yes I'm referencing a terrible movie from 84

 

[Rest]

You're trying to think deeply about shallow movie. Don't do it OP, you'll just hurt yourself.

 

[Slammin_Hammon]

He's an adult midget pretending to be a baby. That's what the word on the street is anyways...

 

[ISOM]

I guess you've never seen Irreversible.

 

[TwEE-N-Toast]

I fear the influence this movie will have on little people.

 

[Verano]

Well this thread has revealed people have interesting discrepancies in what they consider rape.

yup. Creepy overall too.

 

[Resident4t.]

Just read the wikipedia entry and she does indeed have his kid. This movie is kind of disturbing.

There's nothing terrible about Revenge Of The Nerds.

Wtf?

What if his penis does cure cancer?

 

[Shaanyboi]

Did not know this was a thing. The world just got a little bit darker.

Yup, the main nerd rapes the hot cheerleader by pretending to be her boyfriend in a darth vader costume. But it totally ok because she liked it! blegh.

 

[Mariolee]

My dad loves this movie. I wonder what this says about him.

 

[dr3upmushroom]

How can mistake a toddler like body for a grown man, maybe she knew....

 

[Ferrio]

Yup, the main nerd rapes the hot cheerleader by pretending to be her boyfriend in a darth vader costume. But it totally ok because she liked it! blegh.

One of my favorite movies as a kid. Once I was older the realization that that scene was fucked up really disappointed me.

 

[Resident4t.]

Wtf?

Wait, no, I misread the name at the end. The movie doesn't go that far, but it's still disturbing.

 

[Hero Prinny]

I'm not understanding how this is rape.

 

[DOWN]

I'm not understanding how this is rape.

Uh she sure as hell wasn't consenting to sex with that guy if she clearly thought it was her husband.

 

[Megadragon15]

The character liked it so much that they were a married couple in Revenge of the Nerds 3.

 

[Kinsei]

I'm not understanding how this is rape.

So if you broke into a couple's house and pretended to be a woman's husband/boyfriend and had sex with her without her knowing the truth you don't think that would be rape?
