When did the Navajo become such pussies?

Sandler is actually one of the few Republicans in Hollywood.

My guess is the movie crew won’t have any problem replacing the 12 angry men (and women).
For every actor hired, there are three or more eager to understudy or take the role.

I like the bean eating campfire scene...

And when Alex Karras punched and knocked out the horse.

“Blazing Saddles sure couldn’t be made today. Neither could Animal House, especially the scene in the black night club. The 70s were the last time that people could just take a joke I guess.”

I received a “set” of the Dean Martin Roasts for Christmas. Most of them could not be shown today either. Ditto for Sanford & Son.

In Cheyenne Autumn, Navajos played Cheyenne and in the scene, where they are having a pow wow with Richard Widmark. The Navajos are joking about the whites penis size, no one other than the Navajos knew what they were saying. Every year the drive inn in Farmington NM, shows Cheyenne Autumn to a packed house of Indians, hooting, hollering and blowing horns. They think it is a great joke on the whites.

Heck. I saw the classic Andrew Dice Clay 2 hour show on video a month ago. Absolutely no way his act could play today. The way he ridiculed homos will get him kicked out of clubs.

Exactly.

Gone are the days of epic films like "Dances With Wolves."

This is not Blazing Saddles. This is vulgar.

There is a difference.

You only think that because you’re a member of the jackbooted, white oppressor class...

yeah...it’s extreme sarcasm but some folks seriously believe it.

A quick aside...Did Breitbart.com get rid of their comments section? that website has gone down the toilet since it’s namesake died.

There is humor, and then there is humor. Personally, I don’t think Adam Sandler is funny, nor do I like any of his movies.

If you ever get the chance check out the monuments at the Little Bighorn Battleground that list the names of the Indians that fought Custer.

Beaver’s Breath and No Bra would fit right in.

My personal favorite name engraved on the wall is “Plenty Lice”.

It's an Adam Sandler movie - not noted for respect and not particularly funny or witty either. For comedy, my choice was Johnny Carson.

As for experiencing stereotyping first hand, I'd say at least it's just a movie. Thanks to revisionist history and current day reporting, that's a daily-nonstop happening for whitey in this day and age.

Hey, she got some badly needed more money out of it. And she is much prettier then Harvey Korman.
