These days, a sex scene has to shock for us to consider it among the greatest sex scenes of all time. It has to make us laugh riotously, recoil in disgust, squirm at the weirdness, or at the very least, rewatch it repeatedly because it's just so damn hot. There have been loads of movies featuring such boundary-pushing scenes, and only some of them starred Sharon Stone or Tom Cruise or puppets.

Skip navigation! Story from Hottest Sex Scenes. Sex scenes, we've seen a few. The first times that seldom bear resemblance to anyone's real first time.
