It's really going to be interesting to see how younger generations will view the classic 70's, 80's, and 90's films.

I think it's technically called sexual assault when it's an unwanted kiss.
It is a questionable situation especially because she was feeling uncomfortable being in his room.

tell me about how you kissed a girl after she explicitly told you she was uncomfortable and did not want to be in your house
Well he literally kicks the door in but on the other hand she is seducing him I think ? It's been a while
It could easily have been Adrian going through with it because he blocked her from leaving and she didnt feel comfortable being more firm in her refusal.
It's all entirely unnecessary. This shouldnt be controversial.
I hadn't thought of Three Ninjas in 20 years before this. It's all flooding back.
Might as well remove that question mark from your thread title and also post in the OP that if you disagree then that means you're a rapist. I mean, all cards on the table and whatnot.
The character writing of Rocky is still so fucking good. Well-deserved Oscar.
Also, the OP's take ignores context and the characters themselves.

Its creepy and weird and makes me feel uncomfortable but is it rape?

i think you guys misunderstand me
i know rocky is just trying to be a good dude and he probably knew that adrian had the hots for him etc. i don't even think it's a bad scene i think it's great and a highlight of the movie but you gotta call it like it is. adrian clearly did not want to be there and rocky prevented her from leaving. this man raped her

i must have missed the part where you explained why it's not rape
I think you missed the part where that guy joked about how they were just awkward virgins and then you called him a rapist all casual like.
Would you feel less conflicted about calling it sexual assault?
Dawg she was crippling shy. She might as well have been an ERA poster.

When you're dealing with these kind of people...
But yeah, that was basically sexual assault.

OP
you wanna fucking go kid
i'll fight you right now don't you ever talk about minya like that ever again
and her name isn't minya it's minilla
I wonder if the lack of substantive discussion stems from a desire by some to label people rapists for disagreeing.
OP
OP
did y'all think i was serious
i don't really think guy is a rapist i was replying to his dumb joke with a dumb joke how dense are you people
Possibly. I mean, I guess there are levels of severity of assault and its not always as obvious. Like if there was physical abuse involved and visible resistance. But considering the scene in question only shows kissing, I don't really agree with throwing the word rape in here. Part of me feels like it cheapens more clear cut cases but part of me feels like someone who experienced a similar situation would be upset at people dismissing it.
Im conflicted. But my initial reaction is to say that while creepy and awkward, I cant look at this scene and say without a doubt that he raped her.
