Depending on source , and he ' s probably got a pharma hook up for 80 % of it driving the cost up more <| sep |> The thing is these movies have to be advertised well first for people to watch them . 😕 So I really doubt the masses would be lining up on theaters this time . The challenge for Vic Sotto now is to produce a quality movie that is both compelling to the masses and deserving to be an MMFF pick . <| sep |> To paint the issue in a very generalising light , without having put much thought into it , I think I would view childresembling robots as the sexual equivalent to needle exchanges . Yes , you can argue that they promote illegal and abhorrent activities in both cases , but the flip side is that you are at least providing a safer alternative to what would happen otherwise . A junkie isn ' t going to stop using if he doesn ' t have access to clean needles , he ' s just going to share and potentially help spread bloodborn pathogens . In the same way , a pedo isn ' t going to stop feeling certain attractions because he doesn ' t have access to robots , cartoons or body pillows etc . , his obsession is just going to have fewer and fewer harmless outlets before turning to something more disturbing . I don ' t think the existence of needle exchanges has caused a significant increase in the number of otherwise sober people to suddenly want to get addicted to IV drugs , so it seems to me that the creation of childlike robots wouldn ' t cause an increase in sexual deviancy in otherwise normal people .
