18 Movies Too Un-PC for Today?
EW ^ | April 25, 2012 | ew

Posted on 04/25/2012 4:32:42 PM PDT by SMGFan

We'll soon see how far Sacha Baron Cohen goes as ''The Dictator''; in 2012, though, it's difficult to imagine any film could cross certain lines as casually as did these hits of the past

Blazing Saddles was great. Airplane! was hilarious. And most of Mel Brooks films.

Animal House. Racist, misogynistic, and homophobic (’You homo!’)

Kentucky Fried Movie was pretty fun, too. At least the portion entitled, “A Fistful Of Yen.” “What was that? This is not a chawade. We need total concentwation. Now, once more, but dis time, wif feewing.” ;)

Blazing Saddles deserves to be on the list, but not for the reason stated. The racism, no matter how over the top it goes, always makes the racists look like idiots. Only the non racists are shown in a positive light. Although this is funny and appropriate, it is not politically incorrect.

The reason why it belongs on the list, the politically incorrect part, is the plot. Greedy corrupt politicians and hangers on wish to steal the land of private citizens in order to build a railroad, and the towns people fight back. Does anyone think landowners in present day central California would be portrayed positively if they interfered with a high speed rail line?

One of our favorite films is “Sargent York” with Gary Cooper.

The scene during the war, after he has captured all the Nazis and one of them throws off a grenade and York just shoots the enemy, no questions asked, no reading him his rights, just quick and honest justice for a cowardly act in war.

Nowadays, York would be brought up on charges and court martialed.

Love that movie and love that scene.

I'm surprised Jerry Lewis's Japanese Chef routine in Hardly Working didn't make the list...

How about TV shows? Not too sure we'd get the show with the guy pretending to be gay so he could live with two California babes. But then it's no longer UN-PC to cohabitate as such.

This is the first flick that comes to mind for too un PC for today. This 1975 Fred Williamson classic would never be made today.

I would have nominated Cast a Giant Shadow. Could Hollywood ever again make an unashamedly Pro-Isreal film like that?

How about the charecter that Mickey Rooney played in Breakfast at Tiffanys. He played the part of a buck toothed Japanese man with thick glasses. He looked like the Japanese in World War II propaganda posters. They don’t make movies like that any more.

There are some truly good movies on this list (along a bunch of junk movies).

Whoever created this list seems to be seriously suggesting that there is something so wrong with these movies that they must not be screened.

Have America sunk that far?
