This is ridiculous, in my opinion. I watched the film. It is not child pornography.

Also, even if it was, every pedophile in the country has probably flocked to see it by now given the amount of publicity it's received. Way to bring an obscure foreign film to the attention of creeps everywhere.

We can't just go "Shhh don't mention this to the creeps!" every time something like this gets released. Wake up a little here, face reality. We have the internet. Creeps are out there. And you can't seriously think we can just hide shit from them. This movie shouldn't have been released and defended by Netflix. They're getting indicted. Such is the way.

Creeps are out there regardless. Pedophiles are going to get off on underage girls even if the movie or TV show is totally innocent. I'm just saying this media storm has brought it to the attention of every pedophile in the country.

It's on Netflix. Do I have to explain how wide spread it already was and inevitably would be regardless of any extra attention?

It's an obscure foreign film. The only reason Cuties got any attention at all was because Netflix created a shitstorm by releasing that poster. It hadn't even been put out for streaming yet. The movie had been on the film festival circuit for months without drawing undue attention from anyone.

I'm sorry leave it up because it's obscure is not why Netflix has been indicted.
