These Movies Could Never Be Made Today
April 04, 2022
Whether they call it “cancel culture” or simply Hollywood adapting to the ever-changing world around them, the entertainment landscape is constantly changing what constitutes acceptable content. Things that were once common are now taboo, which is why none of these controversial films would be made the same way today.
Some have jokes that would be considered racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic. Others have entire plot twists that simply don't fit with the way the world works, and which groups demand the respect that they were denied in the past. Many of these controversial films are still considered iconic today despite their perceived flaws, but there is almost no doubt that none of these films would have been made today.
