In the 80'ies and 90'ies there was a mandatory sex scene in any action movie. I feel those kinda went away in the aughts. Now that we need at leas one major gay or bi or trans character in everything we have at least one scene of someone kissing someone of their own gender, often followed by cuddling.

So not only did they bring back sex or at least a big focus on people making out, but they're doing it at a time when TVs have grown a LOT! Filling the frame with a kiss was sort of ok on a 24" screen, but having my 77" TV portray lips on lips, corner to corner is just not something I need for every single piece of modern media I'm trying to enjoy!
