Nudity in Screencaps
 

Hey All,
I've done a bunch of screencaps for the film Doomsday and I've had an issue with nudity come up as there is a sceen where a bathing Blonde woman pulls a currently unknown shotgun and starts blasting. While I have managed to get a picture that hopefully does not show anything. I would like to get everyone's opinion about what to do should there be a scene where the only clear shot of a weapon has nudity in it?

I think the censorship of the site is kind of hypocritical, as we are all adults, or mature enough to handle some body parts not typically seen. Yes I understand kids go on the site to see what the latest action movie has Ahnuld shooting, but the movies we cap are usually rated by the MPAA for certain age groups to view (this includes the single frames we make screencaps out of), so the only ones that should be held responsible are the viewers, as they know what the movies are rated, and are viewing the pages with that knowledge. Besides, how many instances of swearing, violence and gore do we see on the site, huh? Is that worse than a pair of tits? I think not.

But hey, I'm just one person.

Good question.

I've never done any movies where this has been an issue. When John screencapped "The Whole Nine Yards", he put a black bar over Amanda Peet's tits. Off the top of my head, I can't think of any other IMFDB pages where this had to be done, but I guess he decided to take precautions.

I dunno how Bunni feels about this. I can ask, of course. However, some of the very first quotes in our "Quote of the Day" heading were put in by him, and have the word "fuck" in them. Since then, we've added lots of quotes that have that word (I've added a few myself). If there's no issue with that language, I can't imagine it would be any different with nudity.

I don't mean to be offensive in pointing out screencaps but I have seen one thing I'm concerned about on the Mr. Brooks Page. When Mr. Brooks is about to execute the naked couple in bed you see a reflection in a mirror showing nudity. I've also seen another one of Gunmasters Page on Crank showing censored image of an AK-47 (but not nude).

Since I'm not an adult :D you guys should be better role models....

Meh, I'm mentally an adult. I figured you could barely see anything in Mr. Brooks so I didn't bother censoring it. For the Whole Nine Yards, I figured I might get in trouble for uploading so many pics of a naked chick, so I censored it. I did the same for Crank because it was two naked chicks making out...

I think bunni is okay with it, he uploaded the cap in Sin City where Carla Gugino is naked.

I'd recommend you just put a black bar over the naughty stuff so no one reports the site for having pornographic images or some shit. Besides, no one's gonna focus on the guns if there's a naked chick in the picture.

Don't worry; we'll still hassle you about stuff that matters. Do your homework. Eat your greens. Brush your teeth and floss.

If they visit the site for the reason it exists, and is meant to be viewed, GM, then no one is going to focus on naked chicks when there's guns in the picture. It's just a bonus.
Also, I feel censoring is kinda dumbwhen you could just not post the screencap. The times when we've had nudity in one cap, there have been other images of the gun, and you don't need every single frame to prove the gun was in the movie, just one or a few good ones. And, again, down with needless censorship, blah blah blah................

I more or less coincide with Yournamehere's opinion on the matter.

HAHA! Good to have you aboard, Krusty!
