So Politically Incorrect It Couldn't Be Made Today

This came on the oldies network tonight and I was stunned at how many jokes it contains that just could not be done in a Hollywood movie today. It would be flamed as totally racist, sexist, pretty much -everything-ist. :D

Don't get me wrong, I think it's a -scream- (I like it a LOT more than 6.5) I'm just commenting on how quickly societal norms have changed in just 15-20 years.

Why? I came into this game for the action, the excitement... Listen, kid, we're all in it together.

Agreed! Awesome movie and politically incorrect. Love it! Did you watch it on THIS network? They had a double feature of Naked Gun 1 and 33 and 1/3.

In death there are no accidents, no coincidences, no mishaps, and no escapes

Social norms have changed because of unsubstantiated leftist consequentialist moral philosophy which assumes edgy jokes lead to harmful behaviour.
