Random shots of topless women sometimes. An orgy happens off-screen and we get to see a bunch of naked people sleeping on the floor the next day

No, though a bunch of macho-postering about "acting like a girl". One character refers to a trans woman as "being... you know" without further detail, which is at the very least rude

A weird amount of homophobic insults for a movie inspired by Judas Priest. Some of it is shown to be wrong, such as the band making fun of their lead singer for "not being the king of metal, but the queen", while other homophobic jokes and remarks are played without irony or critique. F*g is used as an insult early on

Despite the edgy jokes, the gay man and trans woman in the film are both portrayed as human beings which is surprising.

During a stage show a man falls down a staircase set and busts his head open on the floor. He recovers quickly, but the tension of whether or not he is seriously hurt is dragged out with slow motion shots
