I watched Tropic Thunder and Cruel Intentions recently, and there's no way those kinds of movies get made today with PC culture.

Hopefully. Pendulum will have to swing back away from crazyville.

Revenge of the Nerds would be considered a rape montage in 2018

Cruel Intentions


They’ve probably been saying such things about this story since it was first written down in the 1700s.

The irony is that Blazing Saddles is a very anti-racist movie.

Agreed, but SJWs don't process irony or even actual jokes.

They ruin everything.

I've been wondering this too. It's not just comedy either, everything is so saturated with PC culture and identity politics that it's difficult to watch anything made recently. I have a young son and have taken to collecting older movies and shows so I can hopefully have enough variety to keep him away from most of that garbage when he gets old enough.

You couldn't make Fraiser today.

The Hollywood elite wouldn't have anyone make fun of urban progressives like Niles, Faiser, etc.

They have zero sense of humor. They can only feel outrage and offense

Just wondering how old you are because those were pretty PC films.

Go watch some old All in the Family episodes if you want to see non PC

Mrs. Bunky and I watched Animal House during the Ford testimony. They’ll never make something like that again.

Two cannibals were eating Leslie Jones.

One looked at the other and said, "Does this taste funny to you?"

The other said, "No."

I’m trying to think of the last great comedy I remember seeing, and I’m really struggling to think of one from the past 4 years.
