Things I learned while watching this movie

Life for perverts wanting to watch other people have sex before the invention of the home vcr/internet was really creepy

Random strangers will exchange clothes with you and lead ARMED police officers on a foot chase all for 5 dollars (Which actually might have been a lot of money back then)

Racist police officers will beat up innocent children, lie to the local media and shoot an unarmed black man for having sex with a white woman, but BY GAWD they respect the mexican border.

Cast your teenage son having sex in a movie, he will then make a movie to honor you thirty years later.

ROFL.

Yeah. Just imagine if they had camcorders and webcams, back then. We'd have SEQUELS to this movie, AND there would be a slew of them online at YouTube. lol.

I tried that swap thing, without success. 1. I got the crap end of the stick with the duds. and 2. the man started chasing me for Vagrancy. LOL

Tell me you knew this already (about the racist cops). If not, just look at the news in California over the past 20 years, starting with Boys in da Hood...and need I say, look at the O.J. situation, to date. His life IS the sequel...or a retread of the movie. With a much higher budget. lol.

lmao MissLovie

I learned that some guys just take a poo poo with another guy in the bathroom without hesitation, and they'll talk to that guy too.
I also learned that it's possible to do No.2 in less than 30 seconds.

30 seconds is a long time for a number 2 for me. Sometimes I'm done before my cheeks hit the seat. And then if i get a clean wipe I'm out of there with hands washed in less than 20.

Seriously, THAT dudes half hazard ass wiping technique was disgusting.

EWWW

Beetle was a nasty ass dude!

He wasn't even checking the paper to see what type of progress he was making.

It's a shock his character lived long enough to be in this movie, I would have thought he would have contracted some type of virus from now wiping properly

I learned,if a man lies naked on top of a woman perfectly still with no movement, he can become a sex performer & plenty of ppl will gather around to watch.

HAHAHA. Its so weird that Sweetbacks suppose to be this "great" lover and every woman in the film wants to have sex with him....but he barely moves....my teacher made a comment about how he didnt move and it was hysterical. She was all...he doesnt seem like THAT great of a lover. He barely moved at all. HAHA. That $hit was funny as hell

[–] kidpsycho_1999 15 years ago

I'm pretty sure there were Porno movies back then, and people would be able to see some more active lovers

[–] djrosenblatt 15 years ago

It's funny you mention that. I happened to lose my virginity the same year this film was made. I was 16 at the time, had never seen a porn flick prior to that time, and, sadly, my only knowledge of sexual intercourse was that it involved the man putting his thingie into the woman's thingie. I swear, I had no concept that a little bit of repetetive movement would have been of great benefit. (If my partner knew otherwise, she wasn't saying anything, perhaps to avoid embarassing me.)

Now I'm beginning to wonder whether poor Melvin was in the same boat as me 40 years ago. Is it possible that his cast and crew, watching him feign rigor mortis in his sex scenes, were just too mortified and embarassed to say, "Err, excuse me boss, could we make a minor suggestion"?

I learned that a injured, tired, unarmed man who has spent the entire day running a desert; can kill three or four blood-thristy attack dogs, and even have skin one of them, with his bare hands.

...You can ALWAYS outrun the cops if Earth, Wind, and Fire are singing, "Come on feet. Come on legs. Do yo' thang!"

Okay. Now I'm going to do his teeth and cut off his fingers. You might want to leave room.

He was armed with a knife.
