9 Most Insane Things Happening In Movies & TV Right Now (Nov 9)
1. Chris Pine Wants You To Stop Giggling About His Penis
Chris Pine wants you to stop giggling at his penis like schoolkids playing spin the bottle.
With his new movie, Outlaw King, coming to Netflix, reviews have revealed that Pine gets his sword out, as it were, for at least one full frontal scene. And according to Pine, the reactions have been silly.
"People are giggling about my penis as if we're schoolchildren. There are movies with people sawing their heads off and you can show that to a 13-year-old in my country and it's not a problem. You show two people having sex and your mother's got to hide you from it... People want to talk about my penis as if we're a bunch of teenagers playing spin the bottle."
His games of spin the bottle with 13 year olds must have been different to mine.
Pine says there's a double standard because nobody is poking fun at Florence Pugh's full frontal scenes in the movie or even mentioning them in the same terms:
"I'd love to have an interesting conversation about why is it funny or pithy or a conversation to be had about that, whereas Florence is not. Is she expected to do that because she is a woman and I'm not expected to do that because I'm a man? What is it really? I don't know, totally."
Pine says he's found it interesting how little the violence in the film has been talked out in light of the revelation of his penis. Which is fair enough really.
