All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XVII
RE: All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XVII
Geth, I'm not going to act on that until everybody has had time to cool off. If you still want to do this in 11 hours (12, minus the one that it's been since you posted), then I'll ask Miraheze to revoke your Bureaucrat and Founder rights (unless Bob or Brent beat me to it), but not before then.

As for the topic that brought us to this point...

I still haven't seen the movie, but I have read over two-thirds of the user reviews at IMDb as of this posting, especially this one, this one, and this one. I think this avoids the right-wing only-Christianity-can-serve-as-a-moral-framework bias that's present in the first seven links that you posted above.

What's the trope about doing something that you want to warn other people not to do? "Moral Myopia" comes close. And, from what I'm seeing there (even in the reviews that say it's a good movie), there appears to be a ethical myopia present in the movie. Twerking per se is not necessarily porn. Concentrating on the pre-teens' lower torsos while they twerk, however, is.

(EDIT: There's also a So Bad It's Horrible undercurrent in the reviews, and a Contemptible Covers issue with Netflix's original poster, but those are peripheral to the issues with the movie.)

If for some reason both Brent and Bob pass on taking the equivalent of the Founder rights and leave that to me, then I'll leave this page lock in place... until we can figure out how to write a page similar to our page for Salo (another work that contains child porn).
