OK, I took the wife to the movie house and we had three selections, Ben Hur, Pete's Dragon, or Sausage Party.

We chose Sausage Party.

This is NOT...NOT for kids, even though animated. It is not even slightly off-color like Family Guy or American Dad. It is waaay out there.

Let me see if I can explain this accurately.

You gather up a 9th grade boy's sports team, have them each write 5 minutes of a movie with no censorship at all. Whatever they write is good to go. Then gather up all their papers, and make a movie based on what they wrote.

Profanity: It was like there was a contest with the writers to see how many dirty words they could cram into each scene.

Sex: Yes, it was just food, but the sexual situations are all over the place. Then there is a 10 minute food orgy scene where all the stops were pulled. Anal beads, BDSM, M/F, F/F, M/M, M/? . One main bad guy is a prepackaged Douche Bag, and a human woman is pulling at her crotch saying she wished she had not forgotten to buy it. Really classy, for sure.

Violence: Average violence for a movie about prepackaged grocery store food.

So, overall....I LOVED IT!

For others....it will be time off your life you will never get back.

Did I say, DO NOT bring the kids?

I have not seen it but clearly it is something fun and different.

Clearly it will be one of if not the highest profit margin movie of the year.

Are these two sentences connected one wonders?

I've always believed that if you feel like you have to beat your audience over the head with your point, you consider your audience to be dumb as ****.

Or maybe I wasn't high enough but I understood within two minutes the point the film was trying to convey and the rest was barely smirks until that last scene... That was the OMG moment, but the rest... An hour and a half beat you over the head allegory about existentionalism.

Got it Seth!
 
Is it politically OK to see this film?

While Sausage Party (which is already looking likely to receive a sequel) was largely conceived by and stars the extended family of actors and comedians associated with producers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the film’s animation duties were handled by the smaller Canadian animation firm Nitrogen Studios. Shortly after the film was released, current and former employees at Nitrogen began to allege a variety of abuses by management; including the denial of overtime pay, threats of unjust termination and other actions that contributed to an “unrewarding and frustrating work environment.”

Why does animated = for children for many people?

So wide claims of subcontractor abuse of labor should be ignored?

Is this only cause the firm is not American?

I always get confused on these things.

I prefer serious movies that deal in complicated HUMAN relationships. I checked out hell or High Water. IMO it's Oscar worthy traces of Sicario and no country for old men.

Well it is politicized already, do what you want? For most people that does not affect their want to see the movie. I am Canadian and do not approve of it but I have already seen it.

I wanted guidance, which you have provided, Mucho Thanks.

I am thinking about seeing this one.

You have to ask Bugs Bunny about that. I do not know.

I still get a laugh out of the "nudity" warnings put on the animated ARCHER episodes.

Puritans are complicated people.

OK, Maggie, that makes sense.

Even so, this fleet sailor had an issue with anal beads and a female hot dog bun.

That was too weird even for me.
 
So if you accidentally took your young child to it because you thought it was for kids, how many minutes into it will you realize you have made a horrible mistake?

The theater manager told us both as we were getting our popcorn, one couple came running out after the first three minutes.

The hot dogs said one MF, one SH*t, and two F bombs I think, all in that time period.

So the simple answer is IMMEDIATELY...:eek:

Giving credit where credit is due, there is also one very clever take with a Saving Private Ryan theme to it that was very well done.

Also the back and forth between the Jewish bagel and the Arab Pita bread is very good too....that is, if you do not mind extreme stereo-types.

These were my thoughts on the film as well.

Don't get me wrong. I thought it was funny just for the shock value. However, the anti-religious/pro-hedonistic nihilism nature of its message wasn't exactly what you'd call "subtle" either.
