1----
2* A film of ''[[Literature/NineteenEightyFour 1984]]'' had a scene with Julia and Winston in the room on top of the antique shop. For some reason she gets up and walks around in the room for minutes completely naked and the camera shows her entire body. Every shot at Winston, though, shows only his head, or at best his upper body.
3* Toward the end of ''Film/{{Alien}}'', there's a long scene where Ripley's in a shirt and panties. During the whole time, the camera's focus is clearly aimed rather lower than her face, and doesn't go back up to its usual height until after she gets some more clothes on.
4* ''Film/AmericanHustle'' features Sydney dressed in a lot of NavelDeepNeckline outfits. Notably one shot tilts down to focus on a briefcase - but Sydney's cleavage is still framed in the background.
5* In the director's cut of ''Film/ApocalypseNow'' a Playboy bunny complains that no one sees her as a real person or respects her for her mind...all while Lance, and the camera, is focused on her breasts.
6* At the end of ''Film/ArmyOfDarkness'', [[https://youtu.be/DrZwFAvlmVY?t=78 Ash is price tagging boxes while the camera pans over and notices]] (along with Ash himself) the demin skirt clad bum of an attractive female co-worker, who proceeds to flirt with him.
7* In ''Film/AttackOfTheClones'', when Padme and Anakin are reunited and Padme remarks that Anakin has grown, [[https://youtu.be/Wm593Vhs3bI?t=77 he replies "So have you"]] while staring at her chest.
8* In ''Film/AustinPowers: International Man of Mystery'', we first see Vanessa Kensington via a slow pan up her entire body.
9* ''Film/AxeMurderingWithHackley'': The sole female masked killer at [=RKS=] has a rather voluptuous body that everyone there is drawn to. We even see a pencil fall to the floor, prompting her to pick it up and show off her butt, which prompts several more pencils to be "dropped".
10* In Creator/WoodyAllen's ''Film/{{Bananas}}'', it's done to comic effect with a leather clad secretary who brags she and her friends are going to have a porno party.
11* ''Film/BitchSlap'' consists about 80 % of Male Gaze (the other 20 is LesYay). It's fully, fatly justified to say the camera licks, caresses, and more or less dry humps its subjects - there are moments when the same shot of, say, the viewpoint gliding up a mile-long leg stepping out of a car, is actually repeated twice if not thrice, only to be followed by close examination of the curves that await up there, then brought to the finale with a face shot with plump lips and gleaming eyes.
12* ''Literature/BigTrouble'' lampshades this in universe: Jenny repeatedly orders Andrew not to look at her rear end (she doesn't use that word) as she is about to walk away. Both Andrew and Matt conspicuously do look, and comment on it to each other.
13* ''Film/TheBlackBalloon2007'': When Thomas and his classmates check out girls at the pool, the camera pans up their bodies.
14* ''Film/BlackWake'': In one video log, a guy is walking to the beach with his girlfriend at the start. While he's doing this, he has the camera trained on the girl's buttocks, which she immediately asks about.
15* We have a moment in ''Film/BlondeCrazy'' where Bert checks out the ''derrieres'' of women out on the dance floor— especially easy for him since he's sitting down. Being UsefulNotes/ThePreCodeEra, this comes as no surprise.
16* Troy Duffy got Julie Benz to be in his movie, ''Film/TheBoondockSaintsIIAllSaintsDay'', and damn it all if he wasn't going to take full advantage of it for his male audience. But, to be fair, there is a hefty amount of FanService for the ladies as well, so we could just look at it as equal opportunity exploitation.
17* ''Film/BramStokersDracula'' has many suspect shots of Lucy in a see-through and [[WardrobeMalfunction loose]] nightie getting all hot and bothered while turning into a vampire, and before there’s a [[https://i.pinimg.com/originals/35/5c/d6/355cd6fb7a55247f0a4fde0e2915f628.gif pan-down]] while Lucy walks around in bare feet and legs. Not to mention the first time Creator/MonicaBellucci who plays one of Dracula's brides shows up.
18* Subverted in the car-wash scene of the original ''Film/BringItOn''. As Cliff approaches the carwash, we see through his viewpoint - until his sister Missy enters the frame at precisely the right height that her breasts are perfectly framed. He is understandably {{Squick}}ed out.
19* ''Film/TheBurning'': As the girls of Camp Stonewater play baseball, Eddy and Dave (as well as the camera) take a good look at the bikini-clad behind of Karen.
20* In ''Film/CabinFever'' there is a scene where the [[MsFanService hot brunette]] walks across a grass field to a house. The shot builds out to a close up of her swaying butt, in jeans, and slows down to [[SloMo slow-mo]] as it does so.
21** The introduction to an earlier scene is a slow pan over a sexy bikini-clad blonde laying on a raft.
22** A later scene featuring a topless woman is taken from '''exactly''' the right position so the we see her large breasts twice at once: directly from the side, and front-on via a reflection in a bathroom mirror.
23** Many reviewers have claimed that the subsequent ''leg-shaving'' scene focuses an inordinate amount of attention on the woman's breasts, despite it essentially being a psychological horror scene.
24** The sex scenes are filmed in such a way to maximize the display of breast-jigglage or booty-shaking.
25* ''{{Literature/Carrie}}'':
26** The 1976 version has a slow motion shot of all the girls in the locker room showering and getting changed. Although Carrie quickly gets her period in the shower, there's still plenty of intimate shots of boobs and legs before the blood flows.
27** Another obvious example is the detention for the girls, where they're all in skimpy PT gear and doing star jumps to allow some jiggle to show.
28** The 2002 film features a tamer version of this, but there are still shots of Angela Bettis washing her legs and back.
29* ''Film/CarryOnLoving'': When Terry watches an underwear-clad Sally looking for her blue sweater, the film gives the audience several close-ups of Creator/JackiPiper's rear.
30* ''Film/CharliesAngels2000'' (and the [[Film/CharliesAngelsFullThrottle sequel]] too, naturally) featured numerous scenes which pointedly and gratuitously framed the lead actresses' rear ends. This is particularly noticeable in the numerous {{fanservice}}y scenes of various female characters dancing, stripping (don't ask) or in the slow-mo action shots where the Angels inexplicably always seem to wear tight pants or [[SpyCatsuit bodysuits]] of some sort, and high heels, regardless of whether or not they'd be convenient or comfortable or even ''safe'' to fight in. Considering it was based on a 1970s' jiggle show, though, is anybody really surprised at any of this?
31** The ''[[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]]'' {{Mockbuster}} ''Film/AngelsRevenge'' was the same thing, with less-attractive women. Early in the movie, we get a shot straight up a ladder as a woman is climbing it, and Crow quips "Hey, you're giving away the plot!"
32* ''Film/{{Clawed}}'': In one scene, the camera lingers on the shot of a woman's bottom as she's leaning into a tent.
33* ''The Courtship of Eddie's Father'' is about a widowed father and his son sizing up various candidates for second wife/stepmother.
34* In ''Film/CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon'' there is a scene where the shapely Julie Adams is swimming in the eponymous lagoon. At [[https://youtu.be/ariuokNFhSw?t=155 one point she dives]], causing the top of her body to submerge and the bottom to rise above the water and move right into the camera. For a brief moment almost the entire screen is filled by her buttocks.
35* ''Film/CrocodileDundee'': When Sue from is bending over in her (very) stringy bath suit, Mick "Crocodile" Dundee is watching her from behind the bushes.
36-->'''Sue Charlton''': That croc was going to eat me alive.
37-->'''Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee''': Well, I wouldn't hold that against him. Same thought crossed my mind once or twice.
38* In ''Film/DevilDoll'', the introduction of Grace, Vorelli's [[LovelyAssistant Replacement Lovely Assistant]], has a slow pan up all the way from her feet to her head.
39* In ''Film/DieHard'', the camera pans down just slightly but very noticeably to show that Bonnie Bedelia's jacket/blouse thing had opened up a bit, showing her slip.
40* An interesting subversion in ''Film/DirtyDancing'', noted by the screenwriter during the commentary. Most of the film is from Baby's point of view, and how she sees Johnny and others around her.
41** Played straight in few instances though, like when Baby is changing in the back of Johnny’s car and while he gets [[DistractedByTheSexy distracted watching her in the rear view mirror]]. Also while practicing lifts in the lake, Baby’s top gets noticeably [[SexySoakedShirt wet and see through]].
42* This is how Julie Warner's character is introduced in ''Film/DocHollywood'', twice. First, it's a dream sequence, but the same scene is essentially repeated in real life. As seen with Film/ThePuppetMasters, this is not her only entry.
43* ''Film/DumbAndDumberTo'': Harry and Lloyd briefly flash back to a younger twenty-something Fraida bending over a pool table.
44* Basically in every film by Seltzer and Friedberg, the women in the film are always a [[MsFanservice Ms. Fanservice]]. In ''Film/EpicMovie'', almost every girl is shot to show off their curves, large asses, huge breasts, and overall gorgeous figures. The main one being Mystique, who's played by the stunning Carmen Electra, who's practically naked through the entire film, with her only two scenes being a sexy dance scene and a sex scene involving her getting [[BreastExpansion larger breasts]] and a larger ass, which we see in full. Granted, that sex scene also has her receiving a unibrow and [[ChubbyChaser "big flabby grandma arms/bingo wings like a fat blue Britney Spears"]], but still, the entire film is shot around sexy ladies whenever they are on screen.
45* ''Film/TheFastAndTheFurious'' movies are frequently and shamelessly quilty of this, especially in regards to the [[https://thumbs.gfycat.com/SnoopyWelloffHellbender-size_restricted.gif scanty]] [[https://thumbs.gfycat.com/PoshQueasyAsianelephant-size_restricted.gif clad]] [[https://thumbs.gfycat.com/AbleHopefulAngora-size_restricted.gif flag girls]] or just any [[https://thumbs.gfycat.com/SnoopyLazyBellfrog-size_restricted.gif attractive female character]]. True, there's fair amount of [[FemaleGaze gratuitous muscle beefcake shots]] particularly later movies (such as the shirtless Samoa fight in ''Film/HobbsAndShaw'') but it's disproportionatly small compared to the female fanservice.
46* In ''Fair Game'', Kate changes her shirt on the side of the road by the car she and Max are using; Max takes a look through the window and we get to see a sideview of her left breast. Kate is played by Creator/CindyCrawford, so it's very hard to blame him.
47* During the Amazon celebration in ''Film/FrankensteinIsland'', Dino's gaze (and the camera) are firmly fixed on the hips and butt of one of the girls as she dances.
48* ''Franchise/FridayThe13th'' invokes this regualery with dozens of sex crazed teenagers and parade of beautiful scantly clad girls, who often go topless, going skinny dipping and have sex in full detail. Frequently [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVGbW9MMMOc lampshaded]] by their equally horny male campers... before Mr Vorhees shows up hacks them all apart.
49* ''Film/FromDuskTillDawn'' has a rare example of the MaleGaze being played for {{Squick}} rather than {{Fanservice}}, as we see how Richie looks at Kate Fuller. Since Richie is a serial rapist, the effect is deeply unpleasant.
50** Played straight with Santanico Pandemonium's snake dance though she's played by Creator/SalmaHayek too.
51* ''Film/TheFunhouseMassacre'': The security guard at the Statesville Mental Hospital zooms the camera in on Miss Quinn's cleavage while she's demanding to get in. The warden tells him off for potentially getting them charged with sexual harassment.
52* In ''Film/GentlemenPreferBlondes'', Lorelei gets stuck in a porthole. While getting her upper-body through and getting stuck at her hips, the camera shows this from behind. Later on, when she’s getting helped through the window, the camera, for a second, shows her butt struggling to fit through.
53* PlayedForLaughs and Lampshaded multiple times in ''Film/GetSmart'' e.g [[Creator/DwayneJohnson The Rock]]'s character Agent 23 winks at the SexySecretary who catches it and seductively puts it down her cleavage with a smile, Agent 23 [[DistractedByTheSexy distracted]] by this display walks into a wall. Also later on Max and Agent 99 (played by the gorgeous Creator/AnneHathaway) have to get past a LaserHallway and 99 goes first in her [[ActionDressRip recently shorted dress]] leading to [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aRTNFzoO1P0 this exchange]].
54--> '''99''': Are you staring at my butt?
55--> '''Max''': [[BlatantLies No, I'm not]]... (eyes darting towards it)... I may have been before- now I am again. Alright, not I'm stopping... I'm-
56--> '''99''': Just pay attention to what I'm doing so you can follow me exactly.
57--> '''Max''': Yep.
58--> [99 rises with a kneeling downward dog (butt right up in the air) causing poor Max to look away again]
59* ''Film/GhostNote'': When [[TheProtagonist Mallory]] is walking away after arranging to hang out with Rodney later, he looks in her direction, and the camera focuses on her butt.
60* The final poster of ''Film/GIJoeTheRiseOfCobra'' features all of the main characters, including The Baroness, but she is the only one facing the viewer, along with her body twisted in a Rob Liefield-style pose so her buttocks is as well. Then again, [[TheBaroness it's more or less in-character]].
61* The opening of ''Film/GrandCanyon'', in which Kevin Kline, with courtside seats at a Lakers game, seems to spend as much time looking at the other women in attendance as he does looking at the game itself.
62* The first ''Film/{{Hercules 1958}}'' movie from the 1950s featured a scene in which the male characters are captured by a group of Amazons. Despite the obvious threat of the women's ''weapons'', the camera "inexplicably" focuses on a long line of long legs (bare, natch). On the other hand, these were beefcake movies where Hercules ran around shirtless flexing his muscles.
63* ''Film/HighSchoolMusical 3'' had a shot of Sharpay's butt that filled the screen.
64* ''Film/{{Hitchcock}}'', in which Scarlett Johansson plays Creator/JanetLeigh of ''Film/{{Psycho}}'' fame, gives Scarlett's behind some screentime.
65* ''Film/HitchhikerMassacre'': The film makes quite liberal use of female butt shots in the first part of the movie.
66* The lesbian sex scene in ''Film/TheHunger'' is filmed and framed in such a way. The entire sequence is quite voyeuristic, with pans along legs, asses and breasts.
67* ''Film/ILoveYouBethCooper'' has a couple of good examples:
68** When Denis falls head first into Beth's lap, we see a POV shot of her panties.
69** Toward the end, Beth's two girl friends try to prove Rich is gay by doing something that would turn on any straight boy: [[EroticEating licking a phallic pastry]]. The scene is shot to turn on the male viewers, of course.
70* The Film/JamesBond movies have this from time to time with the Bond Girls, prominently when anyone's [[SexySurfacingShot getting out of the water with a bathing suit]] - ostensibly as a tribute to original Bond girl Honey Ryder. ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'' manages to make it both DarkerAndEdgier and StupidSexyFlanders by showing how Daniel Craig looks in blue instead.
71* In ''Film/JohnWickChapter2'', we get a shot of Ares drawing a sinister-looking push dagger... [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7-TZCEyok_o&t=84s which just so happens to be in the back pocket of her rather tight-fitting pants]].
72* The entrance of Vanessa Hudgens in ''Film/Journey2TheMysteriousIsland'' is this in every sense of the term (what with it being from Josh Hutcherson's POV and all). And as for the scene where she crawls out of a tunnel that's collapsing around her... did we mention the short shorts she wears for almost the entire movie? And that it's in 3D?
73* Briefly in ''Film/JurassicPark''. In the scene where Ellie stumbles out of the power station after fleeing the Velociraptors, the camera is pretty blatantly riveted on her butt before she runs toward Alan. Earlier, on the helicopter ride to the island, her legs are prominently in the foreground.
74* In the 1923 silent film ''Film/LaRoue'', the main character is tormented by [[PervertDad his attraction to his adopted daughter]]. While she's [[SwingLowSweetHarriet swinging]], the shots from his POV are close-ups of her legs.
75* ''The Lady In The Lake'' used the stylistic choice of filming every scene as it would be viewed by Philip Marlowe. In one instance, the woman he's talking to goes out of focus, because he's busy leering at her SexySecretary.
76* ''Film/LadyInTheWater'', Shyamalan used the [[SarcasmMode unique stylistic choice]] of introdcuing the character Young-Soon Choi from behind without showing her face.
77* ''Film/Lifeforce1985'' is nothing but this trope when the [[FullFrontalAssault Space Girl]], played by an ultra gorgeous Mathilda May [[MsFanservice who remains nude in like 90% of her screen time]], is the focus of the scene. The entire sequence when she wreaks havoc on the Space Research Facility while in the buff is one of the most memorable examples of this trope in cinema from the 80s.
78* [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] in ''Film/{{Looker}}''. The protagonist is shown an advertising program that tracks the viewer's eye movements during commercials to determine where the product needs to be displayed. Of course he's focused laser-like on the hot swimsuit model's perky behind.
79-->I, uh, [[BlatantLies liked her bathing suit]].
80* In ''Film/LostInTranslation'' the background of the opening credits is a shot of Creator/ScarlettJohansson's behind. Interestingly enough, this scene was shot by Sofia Coppola, who acted out the shot herself first to make the actress more comfortable.
81* Played with in ''Film/MadMaxFuryRoad'' as The Wives are extremely beautiful, skimpy dressed, at one point [[SexySoakedShirt hose themselves down]] and Splendid in particular gets a SupermodelStrut as the camera zooms in on her curves... and her pregnant bump. While it's quite sensual, just thinking about it crosses over into {{Squick}} as she along with the other Wives are [[SexSlave Sex Slaves]] who have been impregnated by the BigBad Immortan Joe.
82* ''Film/MissionImpossibleGhostProtocol'' features loads of tantalizing shots of Paula Patton and Lea Seydoux, zooming in on their sexy bodies and right down their cleavage during their fight scene.
83* In ''Film/TheMisfits'' (1961) ,the camera follows Clark Gable's gaze to Creator/MarilynMonroe's behind as it bumps up and down while she rides a horse.
84* ''Film/TheMummyTrilogy'':
85** [[http://31.media.tumblr.com/85893dbc8885d52340895d0ff7088bba/tumblr_nbnfdqwICW1tet206o1_500.gif Anck-Su-Namun]]’s [[https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e5/fe/0e/e5fe0e28af90a1111260cda6f1a7de07.gif introduction]] in the [[Film/TheMummy1999 first movie]] is her doing a SupermodelStrut naked apart from a loincloth and mesh material over breasts covered in gold body paint. Justified given she’s the [[SexSlave concubine]] of The Pharaoh.
86** Evelyn (played by Creator/RachelWeisz) gets a bit of this in the film as well, as her wardrobe in later half of the movie consists of low cut nightgowns, and a see through Egyptian outfit (which Rick is particularly [[EatingTheEyeCandy awed]] by). OutOfUniverse, the scene after the heroes escape the ferry had to be digitally altered since Rachel Weisz’s [[SexySoakedShirt soaked nightgown]] had gone completely transparent and would’ve effected the film’s PG-13 rating.
87** The [[Film/TheMummyReturns sequel]] is hardly any tamer, as Evelyn wears a cleavage revealing low cut top throughout most of the film. Not to mention the FlashBack where Evelyn‘s identical ancestor Nefertiri has scantly clad fight with the aforementioned Anck-Su-Namun. To the obvious enjoyment of both The Pharaoh and Imhotep.
88* In ''Film/TheMummy2017'' Female Mummy BigBad Ahmanet played by model and dancer Creator/SofiaBoutella gets plenty of this, ''even when she’s undead''. Although granted she needs to devour a lot of lifeforce to look attractive again. There’s also a flash back where Ahmanet is wearing a long [[https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-dJfheJGmCrc/Wh9wI74OZNI/AAAAAAABN_0/iaEr0fgMWXIFiPmZOc-nnHFyXn2C0r_bwCLcBGAs/s1600/the-mummy-2017-tom-cruise-ancient-egypt-21.jpg see through gown]] and clearly [[VapourWear isn’t wearing anything underneath]].
89* Parodied in ''Film/TheNakedGun 33 1/3'' when Creator/LeslieNielsen's character first sees Anna Nicole Smith. Watch as the camera goes slowly up the legs... and up the legs... and past the knees... and up the legs... and up the legs... and up the legs... and past the knees again...
90* ''Film/NobodySleepsInTheWoodsTonight'': While the group is hiking through the wilderness at the start of the film, Daniel has his eyes set on Aniela's buttocks.
91* The camera in ''Film/OnceUponATimeInHollywood'' absolutely loves Sharon Tate (played by ''Creator/MargotRobbie''). Whether she is raising her arms dancing, or just walking down the street in a very short mini-skirt such that [[LegFocus the bottom of the skirt is at the top of the screen]], or a long scene with the [[Creator/QuentinTarantino director's]] [[AuthorAppeal favorite]] [[FootFocus body part]] dominating the shot, the movie is a definitive study in male gaze.
92* ''Film/OneMillionYearsBC'': Camera time spent on the lovely Creator/RaquelWelch and her character's FurBikini.
93* Scarlett Johansson's[[note]]damn, she turns up a ''lot'' on this page[[/note]] "panty shot" establishes character in ''Film/ThePerfectScore''.
94* In ''Film/PitchBlack'', when Fry is crawling into the cavern with the first sighting of monsters. On the commentary the director even says "Young boys everywhere, you're welcome."
95* ''Film/PointOfOrigin'': The arsonist is stalking a girl. The camera makes sure we get a good look at her girl in her short shorts and skimpy top. The arsonist makes a big deal of admiring her top to try and cop a feel.
96* In the ''Film/PoliceAcademy'' movies, Callahan is subjected to this a lot, both by viewers and other characters. In the fourth movie, two kids sitting next to her on the plane are staring at her rather amble bosom until she notices and snaps "Eyes ''left''!" at them.
97* At one point in ''Film/{{Predators}}'', the camera focuses on Isabelle's butt. She turns around, and finds that Stans was staring at it, annoying her.
98-->'''Stans:''' Your ass is awesome.
99* Occurs when Julie Warner's character is introduced in ''Film/ThePuppetMasters'', but it's actually a plot point. After she [[LampshadeHanging hangs a lampshade]] on its occurrence, the lack of male gaze by the townsfolk is her first sign that something is very wrong. As seen with ''Film/DocHollywood'', this is not her only entry.
100* One of the more original 'reveals' of the female form is in Creator/AlfredHitchcock's ''Film/RearWindow'': In Creator/GraceKelly's first shot, only her hand is seen (switching on a light IIRC), then an arm, then a bit more, etc, with her face last.
101* Subverted in ''Film/RedEye'' where Lisa has to strip off after someone spills coffee on her blouse. The shot frames her chest - but the focus is instead on the ''scar'' there instead of her breasts.
102* ''Film/RedSparrow'' has been criticized for its heavy emphasis on Dominika's body, and often it is about how the men around her perceive her. It quickly becomes uncomfortable, making Dominika feel even more violated in the eyes of the audience after the numerous rape/near-rape sequences.
103* ''Film/Revenge2017'': From the moment Dimi and Stan are introduced to Jen, all they can do is stare at her scantily clad beauty. In fact, during at least half of the first 15 minutes of the film's runtime, the camera focuses exclusively on Jen's butt. Dimi also spends an entire scene gawking at Jen's lips through his binoculars although she's merely sitting on the opposite side of the table.
104* ''Film/SanAndreas'' is a movie filled with destruction porn. It also introduces Creator/AlexandraDaddario's character of Blake by having her sunbathing in a black bikini that shows a lot of her form, and spends an astonishing amount of time reminding us of her MsFanservice qualifications, with her (and her screen mum Carla Gugino) breast bounce hither and yon throughout. [[spoiler:Even when Blake is on the verge of drowning, the makers just can't resist letting the audience look down her shirt. They just can't.]]
105* Spoofed hilariously in ''Film/ScaryMovie'', which is pertinent since horror movies are perhaps the most guilty of this trope (often in {{squick}}y ways as a woman contorts her body sensually and moans orgasmically as she is dying).
106** The movie opens with a woman (played by Carmen Electra) running from a psycho killer, her clothes getting ripped off by anything she runs by, and stopping to pose and flick her hair as she runs (in SloMo, no less) through a sprinkler.
107** Later, there's Cindy's (played by Creator/AnnaFaris) sex scene, where the camera shots put strong focus on her bra, panties, and otherwise bare skin.
108* ''Film/ScoobyDoo'' quite obviously goes for the HotterAndSexier route as Daphne and Velma (played by Creator/SarahMichelleGellar and Creator/LindaCardellini) spend the latter half of the film [[https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRB7FCPl5VN_IiCVrY1fkdoVbCXcPWC4CFexg&usqp=CAU wearing]] low-cut tops. During the FreakyFridayFlip Fred can't resist a peek down Daphne‘s top. The sequel has a sexy pan up when Velma puts on a leather SpyCatsuit.
109* Pick any scene in ''Film/TheScorpionKing'' with Creator/KellyHu in it.
110* ''Film/TheSentinel1977'' and ''Harsh Times'' were both released around the same time, and both featured Creator/EvaLongoria, and both had a shot where the camera focuses on her butt. In both cases it was to emphasize how the men in the scene see her. In both cases the director was also a male.
111* In ''Film/{{Serenity}}'', right after one of River's hallucinations, the camera cuts to showing her lying facedown on the deck grating, and the camera angle is conspicuously positioned to give the viewer a ''perfect'' shot straight down her cleavage. Plus the countless shots of [[AuthorAppeal River's feet]].
112* In ''Film/{{Sheena}}'', the camera angles are consistently chosen to focus on the large amount of bare skin exposed by Sheena's skimpy costume. Sheena spent a lot of time leaning forward for cleavage shots, there were many shots of her climbing up a wall with the camera being fixed so her torso and legs filled the screen as she passed by it, and there were many up-the-skirt panty shots during those climbs.
113* ''Film/TheShallows'' gives a lot of attention to Nancy's breasts and ass while she's surfing at the beginning. It continues to do this after she's suffered several gruesome injuries after being attacked by a shark, turning this into FanDisservice.
114* ''Film/SuckerPunch'' plays some of this for drama, as a lot of emphasis is on how uncomfortable the protagonists are at constantly being seen as sex objects. The "Love Is A Drug" sequence, included on the Extended Edition, shows a lot of sexy ladies dancing - from the POV of the horny customers.
115* ''Film/SomeLikeItHot'' features Marilyn Monroe walking into frame in such a way that allows her ass to wiggle - and she's then sprayed with steam from an engine for added affect.
116* At one point in ''Film/{{Spawn|1997}}'' during the ball sequence, the camera deicides to investigate Jessica Priest's ass for no reason, hell even her introduction had the camera zoom in on [[https://66.media.tumblr.com/390911889a965edcf037455a2cf0eaa4/tumblr_px4hb1x4Ze1tdkro1o4_400.gif her stockings and gun holster]].
117* ''Film/SpringBreakers'' infamously had a lot of this. There are shots in which the character's torsos are in frame for no reason other than this. Which is to say nothing of the copious amounts of [[WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTTS!!!!!!!]]
118* ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness'':
119** The scene in which Uhura is walking up to the Klingon war party in an attempt to inform them of their intentions, the camera is firmly focused on her behind as she's walking, right up until she stops.
120** Similarly, the camera (and Kirk's eye) stealing a look at [[spoiler:Dr. Marcus]] as she changes uniforms.
121** JJ Abrams made ''sure'' the film was this, as PrettyBoy Chris Pine's buttocks were CGI'd out of a scene as he "couldn't inflict that on people" (Pine himself was slightly upset about the news), and a Cumberbatch ShowerScene is only on the deleted features.
122* In ''Take The Lead'', we have lead actor Creator/AntonioBanderas dancing a fiery tango with the movie's main antagonist, played by Katya Virshilas, who gets several long, lingering, even slow-motion shots of her legs while she spins, her breasts, her hips, and a few overhead shots that go straight down her cleavage. The studio probably could have saved a lot of money casting a stand-in for Mr. Banderas, who is mostly obscured for all but ''one'' brief shot where we see his face.
123* Played with in ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2014'', in the scene where Vernon is frantically driving the truck and trying to see what April is doing. The camera pans over to reveal her grabbing video footage with her phone by leaning out of the window with her ass right in the camera. Vernon is fine with this, but [[DistractedByTheSexy taking his eye off the road causes them to crash]].
124* Subverted in ''Film/TellNoOne''; at a restaurant, we see a shot of a waitress' behind as she's walking away, but then it's revealed it's [[FemaleGaze Helene who's looking at her]], not Alexandre.
125* Played with humorously in ''Film/TomorrowWhenTheWarBegan'' during water ball fight, the camera focuses on the beautiful Chloe undressing to go swim revealing that she’s got a sexy red bikini. Homer who has the ball is DistractedByTheSexy leading to him getting tackled out of frame by Kevin.
126* ''Film/TransformersFilmSeries'':
127** Michael Bay asked some people why they watched the first ''Film/{{Transformers|2007}}''; "[[JustHereForGodzilla For the hot chick]]." So he decided to get it out of the way before he started.
128** Anyone who has seen ''Film/TransformersRevengeOfTheFallen'' will realize from [[MsFanservice Megan Fox]]'s very first scene that director Michael Bay has gone out of his way to not do anything to discourage this trope.
129** ''Film/TransformersDarkOfTheMoon'' carries this to a new level. We first see the female main character dressed in a man's long shirt with tiny panties, as she ascends a staircase, with a tight focus on her legs. She is on camera for at least a minute before we see her face. The rest of the movie has her in either skin tight outfits or very short skirts and dresses, doing things like getting out of low-slung cars with her legs as the only visible part of her. [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Also, there were some robots or something in the movie.]]
130** ''Film/TransformersAgeOfExtinction'' continues the tradition. Especially at the beginning of the movie, the female main character is wearing tight shirts and very short shorts and skirts, and even when the scene is just talking, the camera angle just happens to have her legs in the foreground with the two male characters talking in the background. Further, like all of Bay's movies, [[FanService the background female characters are universally gorgeous]] and dressed in skimpy and tight clothing, with long loving pan shots up their bodies for no particular reason.
131* ''Film/TrueLies'' Helen (played by a young Creator/JamieLeeCurtis)'s dance in BlackBraAndPanties [[https://i.pinimg.com/originals/8e/22/6f/8e226f779bb20ca53a85ddcb114a551b.gif epitomizes this trope]].
132* When we first meet Scrubba in ''Film/UpPompeii'', the camera zooms in on her breasts:
133-->'''Lurcio''': [[BreakingTheFourthWall I say, do you mind?]] You'll see plenty more of those later on.
134* ''Film/VanHelsing'' introduces Anna Valerious with a slow-motion tilt up her body, allowing the viewer to see Kate Beckinsale in a corset. There's also another part where Anna is dropped on Van Helsing and a shot from his POV looks up at her breasts, another one on her crotch.
135* The first shot of Ann-Margret in the Music/ElvisPresley vehicle ''Viva Las Vegas'' is of her legs only, walking into a garage where Elvis and another man are under a car. The camera then tracks up her body as the men get out from under the car, and cuts to an extreme close-up of her rear end as she walks away from them.
136* ''Film/{{WarCraft|2016}}'' has the scene in Llane's meeting room where the camera lingers for a longer moment at the cleavage of a High Elven noblewoman present at the meeting. For the record: there's not a single important Elf character in the entire film.
