That the announcement is typical progressive drivel becomes obvious in the first sentence. Because “the beloved classics” clearly “have stood the test of time,” the phrase “in several ways” signifies nothing. Neither does “when viewed by contemporary standards,” nor the utterly insipid “certain aspects of these films can be troubling.” Hey, welcome to art, snowflakes. The sentence ends with the ultimate vague yet loaded word, “problematic.”

I picked up a series of some of the Dirty Harry movies real cheap several years ago on DVD because I figured soon they would be cancelled by leftists. Now I need to hurry up and get a collection of the Bronson Death Wish films. I bet the left really hates them.

Good thing the derps are stooopid and uneducated, or else they’d cancel art like the below - not because the people are nekkid, but because there are only 2 blacks and no trans, or asians...

Neither does “when viewed by contemporary standards,”

When viewed by "standards" established five minutes ago by a minority of hate-filled "activists," and which will cast aside and replaced with still more-absurd "standards" in another five minutes...

I wonder if they consider the work of art “Piss Christ” to be problematic.
