"Got confused"?

Was he spinning it around to hypnotise people, or something? How does a penis confuse people?

Or is it a poorly phrased statement on the website?

IIRC, it was because the director thought the audience might think it wasn’t real.

[–] ogler@lemmynsfw.com 54 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

ive always imagined that test audiences believed it to be a prosthetic and therefore a deliberate creative choice by lars von trier. which is fucking hilarious, because it so thoroughly cheapens the serious arthouse themes he was playing with of like sex and nature and depression if you believe another theme he wanted to showcase was "and the guy has an absolutely monstrous hog"

Can't be depressed with a dong the size of a semi truck. Lol

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

True, people with 15” cocks rarely have a reason to be depressed.

He was spinning it around yes. Video is available online. It's quite the dangler.

This link used to work when Reddit used to work. Can't vouch for it now.

I find the video itself confusing. https://vimeo.com/49333930

They thought it was a snake trying to attack them.

Does that make Willem the Lisan Al Gaib?

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 27 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe they meant "concussed?"

[–] Lyrl@lemm.ee 13 points 2 weeks ago

The usual interpretation is the director was trying to move the plot along with things happening during the sex scenes, but the penis was so attention-grabbing that the audience missed the plot points, which made them struggle to follow the rest of the movie (be confused).

Helicopter goes brrrrr

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

If you replace 'large' with 'small' the statement makes sense again.

Maybe he's got a monster schlong, or maybe someone changes one word for fun. Maybe it's Maybelline.

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

... he's got a monster dong. There are videos of it flaccid and it is... massive.

It seems pretty much in the range of normal to me, idk.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] BalooWasWahoo@links.hackliberty.org 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I mean, I agree that it looks pretty normal. Maybe if it grows considerably more when he's aroused, it would be in the above average range, but that's well below most of what you see in porn.

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

lol the last word of the comment finally brings it into focus

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 1 points 2 weeks ago

I don't think it's the size of his slanger that's confusing the audience. Wtf is that show
