Are the western films they show in the big cinemas English speaking with Thai subtitles or are they dubbed over with Thai ? Also, as in general the Thais are quite a sensitive and conservative bunch, would you get a movie uncut or do they edit out any nastiness that we take as normal in the west ie. sex & violence. For example the new Scorcese film Gangs of New York is supposed to be heavy on the violence, would they show it all or take out the extreme stuff ?

You will find both Thai subtitles and dubbed in Thai versions.
Yes they do censor sexual content and to some extent nudity. The law is ambiguous and thus the censorship is very arbitrary with a less than consistent standard but nipple are typically obscured and there is no full-fronatl nudity.

I don't suppose there would be much point going to see "Full Frontal Nipple Bitches" when it comes out then !

AFAIK, they don't censor out violence, just nudity, so they are in some ways following the old American standard. Took my young kids to see an animated film one time, they showed a preview for a Thai film about an old battle with the Burmese, they showed a guy's head getting lopped off in battle in the preview. Pretty graphic. But no real reason to show porno when you can go act out your own fantasies in person.

Stuey,
LOL! You'll have to wait til "FFNB" comes out on DVD!
seubeu,
Exactly. It's a rather obscene construct isn't it? The human body and expressions of sexaulity? Bad. Depictions of violence and mayem? No problem.

Yeah, I'm not a big Larry Flynt fan, but I do think that he has the correct definition of obscenity.

Actually, as sleazy as he and the life he has led is, I AM sort of a fan of LF. He fights for freedom of expression and he's no hypocrite; he is what he is and makes few bones about it. In fact I've been amazed to read/watch interviews of him where he expresses a lot of views (on social/political/organized religioun) that I had to respect and often agreed with.

Plus he had sex with lots and lots of nasty girls and got very rich at the same time.

Well, there's that of course.  I guess we just have somewhat different taste in women: I'm generally indifferent to blondes whilst he seems enamoured of them. Plus the production style in Hustler leaves me somewhat cold. But he has pushed the envelope and I have to give him credit for that.

I my tastes diverge from Larry's as well -- but you can bet those girls were high in the nastiness qoutient which goes along way with me when it comes to mindless animal sex. Hustler wasn't really my style either.
And I meant the stuff I said about his views too.
