I guess my question to you Lima, is if you think the scene added something to the story (even a little bit), do you think it added enough to be worth it in the context of this discussion?

You also brought up something that might make for another interesting thread. Shock Value. I generally think shock value that is either out of context to the film or is added in place of actual plot development, is a bad thing.
