violent scenes just to make 'shock value'? 
Do you think that moviemakers sometimes include especially violent scenes just to make 'shock value'? Why does violence sell?

Answer

You bet they do, it's as plain as the nose on my face and not only does it happen but it is unacceptable to miss an opportunity for a pie in the face or a good explosion.  Honestly, who among us doesn't like to see things blown to pieces once in a while and surely we would pay to see a dashing young secret agent and the beautiful accomplice foiling the bad guys.  It's movie magic!  Why do we watch movies?
