We were talking about ‘The Jerk’ as well. Definitely couldn’t do that one these days.
Dumb and Dumber might even be questionable but not as bad as The Jerk.
Shouldn’t have been made in the first place imo
So now she should say there’s no chance?
“I was born a poor black child…”
So he’s Rachael Dolezal’s brother. So what?
Tropic Thunder is something that appears to be a relatively modern movie that has hit the wall of not being shown.
I don’t get the issue with black face if it’s not done with malice.

That too I agree.
I know some white people who grew up with black folks that say the n word with no issues with their friends.
It’s all about intent.
One’s intent is not important for others. It is about their feelings, which are the most important thing in the world. (No, I do not agree with not live that philosophy, but I can’t stop others from living that way.)
Yes, that’s really what cancel culture is based on.
Quite problematic.
I agree.
I mean, what am I supposed to do now with all this shoe polish??
I think the whole Academy Award discussion about Rain Man, Forrest Gump and I am Sam got to be at least as much of an issue. This is a top 5 film though for Tom Cruise.
don’t forget Milk
I doubt most of you will spend the 55 minutes to watch this but if you are interested in why I find this topic, aah annoying, is summed up in this video.
also note the time stamp. released after I stated my points.

Yeah, I’m a fan of Some More News, but they’ve never put out any video that couldn’t have easily lost 10 minutes, and sometimes a lot more.
IMO, many who are not initially offended start thinking about being offended, in part because that gets more attention than saying it doesn’t matter. I see this in “How to be an Antiracist,” for example. Another example is “Subtle Acts of Exclusion,” which promotes making a mountain out of a molehill.
Watched 12 Angry Men yesterday . . . I wonder how that movie might look if it was remade today.
Did you watch the 1957 or 1997 version? The 1957 version with Henry Fonda was better imo.
