***** Because it's pandering to the sensitivities of adult people with a range of "no-no" so wide, you might as well be talking to little children. It's pathetic.
+Aivottaja It doesn't necessarily have to be though. When you're talking about stuff like rape it is necessary to give a warning because there could be a possible rape victim listening to you. Do you think that rape victims are too sensitive?
***** There is no way to know what kind of things are sensitive to whomever, except graphic violence and things children are not allowed to see. That's why we have viewer discretions. This video doesn't contain anything worthy of that. Besides, you don't give "trigger warnings" for difficult subjects such as sexual violence. Trigger warning is a fucking safeword for the SJW mentality. They're basically warnings for people that they might feel the need to discuss something or express their opinion, perhaps passionately.
***** It's not like George Lucas based these off real aliens he saw in the real world. He based them off things in his own mind and his perspective on the world. Doesn't matter if it's aliens or people or monsters.

We have a right to collect those artifacts. Science trumps cultural "values". Not all cultures are equal. They just aren't. Western values are the only correct ones and always will be. You can't fault the West for being superior. Only we have the right values and morals.
AirCooledMan2006 I agreed with the first two sentences of yours, then you got a tad bit nationalistic. I prefer Western Culture and believe that it has contributed more to the world than any other regarding the bigger picture, but I would not use the term "superior" by any means, because no culture is really "superior", which is a term one cannot really even define. And there is no such thing as a single correct set of morals and values, by any means.
If you go further east, past the middle east that is, there are some asian countries that are very honor and respect based cultures. I can make some arguments for that over the 'everyone for himself and HEAR MY OPINION' culture we have in the west.
MisterCharlton Western culture IS superior. PEOPLE are equal. CULTURES are not. That said, what the fuck do the SJWs want to do? Stop archaeology? It's this "let's respect other cultures" mindset that holds back scientific progress! Modernity and science trump cultural traditions, tribal or otherwise!
Jimmy M - it isn’t that it’s necessarily offensive, it’s more that we’ve outgrown these perspectives culturally and intellectually. They reflect the assumptions of their time, which are no longer relevant. For example, slaves were not content and jovial in their servitude and no woman ever benefitted from being slapped.
A time and a place. The "Violence against women" shown in this video though was actually awful however. Getting slapped by a man to "Calm her down" is wrong (especially if she completely ignores it and is somehow still oh-so romantically engaged by the guy). Getting beat in an actual fight is not. Getting choked by a big violent alien villain is certainly not.
+Kate Apples And yet violence against men is OK and is common place, yet any depictions of a woman being struck is oh so terrible. Why should women be placed on a pedestal and treated like children?
WatchMojo has a video about the best male/female fights in movies. In all of the scenes the fights were fair, it wasn't a man beating on a woman for no reason.
Yet the critics of these tropes seem to be projecting prejudices and stereotypes of their own. The female critic says it's not right for men to hit women yet says nothing about women hitting men. Doesn't this smack of reverse sexism?
Haha, hell, in one clip a woman made a full lunge at the man, but it was the man that was being horrible when he lightly tapped her butt with his foot in response. Amazing.
Uhm, no. Aside from a smoking Ray those things were not present in the Ghostbusters movies. And look at those horrible trailers for the new one, they're full of stereotypes. There are legit reasons to be very cautious of that movie but yours isn't one of them and, in fact, you are exactly why legit criticism gets shot down.
There was a casual rape joke in that movie when Peter calls the station to tell them about Dana/Zool. He says that he's drugged her up and then says something along the lines of "don't worry, I'm behaving myself."
@@badmadison5734 so you are saying black face was a celebration of African American culture rather than a racist effigy meant to make fun of and dehumanize African Americans?
The thing is, back then, the films did reflect real life. But nowadays real life is different; if you see a woman getting slapped you'd probably help, but back in the day, people didn't.
+Grant Williams some slaves had relatively good positions so they all don't hate them. And lots of shows reflect real life, most of them are cartoons that are satiric but lots of forms of media reflect real life. Hell, most forms of media are based on real life.
+JohnSmith a person with an anime picture who likes to use the term sjw.. never seen that before. almost makes me ashamed that I like anime. I know that not all anime fans are like you though.
If a woman hits a man, she's a hero. But if a man hits a woman, people call it an act of abusive harassment. Does anybody else see anything wrong here?
Is it a double-standard? Absolutely. It's just on part of the whole problem though. A. We shouldn't be promoting violence as a positive thing except in extreme circumstances. B. It's indicative that we have different behavioural expectations of men and women. It's not really about one gender or another - it's about how we create arbitrary rules based on genitalia/outward appearance that should either apply to everyone or no one. *sigh*
No one has called a woman a hero for hitting a man. Your claim is idiotic. But in case you're questioning whether it's abusive to hit a woman, yes it is. Do you know what abuse is?
It makes her an abuser. It makes her an unstable person unable to control herself, just like it does a man. It's the same offence. But there is a double standard because we are not equal.
+Mikihara that's bullshit. Anytime a women hits a man, the man is asked if he provoked her, and is victim blamed. The women also gets a pat on the back, the man gets belittled, and laughed at.
Bullying was a big theme in Harry Potter. No one ever did anything about Draco. The only person who did was Barty Crouch. Even in the books, Dumbledore, McGonagall, and all the others gave zero fucks.
Apart from anything else the maurders in Harry Potter are glorified to the high heavens, when in reality they were nothing more than a group of bullies, they were far worse then Draco,he's barely a bully they had maybe 2/3 arguments per book, James physically tortured Snape on a daily basis for years
+Minh Hoang I don't think Dumbeldore was a good headmaster. Hagrid continually said that Hogwarts was the safest place in the magical world, yet every year Harry almost dies. I used to think he was great when I was younger, but now that I'm old, I wouldn't send my kids to Hogwarts if I had. any. But, I don't know if Dumbledore was afraid of Lucius as he could stare down Voldemort and not flinch.

You do Mr. Nixon. No one should be able to take away the right to be homophobic from you and most intelligent people don't want to take away anything from you, instead they will probably try to change your mind. It's just when homophobic people are trying to take away rights from gay people that they step in. Like whomever you like, and hate whomever you hate, just let everyone else have the same rights you have and everything is fine.
It's like how you have the right to be an idiot, and I have the right to say your an idiot. The problem is when I treat you like your not a human or you don't deserve rights, like most homophobes do to gays.
I can't believe Watchmojo actually used the term "cultural appropriation". Yeah, this is where I cross the line. If I want to see a freak show, I just browse r/tumblrinaction. Unsubscribed.
probably because cultural appropriation is a real thing. Would I go so far as to say that hairstyles are cultural appropriation? no. But it does exist lmao.
ThePickleUpYourNose Well, yeah, in the sense of a white woman thinking she is actually black. Wearing a native american costume, so long as you don't paint your face red, is hardly cultural appropriation. It is real, in essence, but taken way too far...still don't understand what is u[ with the historical artifact honorable mention. That made me angry for no apparent reason.
MisterCharlton Wearing a native american costume is actually pretty disrespectful. The same as wearing a geisha costume, or dressing up as a jewish/muslim/mexican person. Portraying negative stereotypes about races is not funny.
+MisterCharlton if by "native American costume" you mean the war bonnet, yes, that's appropriation. It's not a cute accessory, it's something that has to be earned. It's literally the equivalent of a Purple Heart medal. Military people do not appreciate non-military people wearing medals they did not earn, and Plains tribes do not appreciate non-Natives wearing war bonnets they did not earn. There are other items, like moccasins, that are intended for general use and are not appropriation.
@@Cooldude-ko7ps it ain't called being soft it's called being sensitive which is a good thing. Imagine you are the POTUS and you are negotiating with the president of China and you greet him by saying "hello my little yellow friend", the negotiations would be pretty much downhill from there.
pizza steve yes you have a point there but yes it is understandable that people will get offended by racism against their race. But I’m just saying that most people are soft and have thin skin because people keep on getting offended by the most minuscule and ridiculously things.
Exactly. If you don't like the way Asians are depicted by white people, make harold and kumar and depict White guys as idiot frat boys. Nobody got offended when they did that, and nobody should have been offended
For the most part being offended is a deliberate choice. You should be offended if someone personally and directly disrespects or assaults you or your property. My grandfather said he hated everyone equally.
I fail to see how the Star Wars thing fell into any trope? Because the alien could barely speak English? Felt like half this stuff was just thrown into the video to make it longer... Good thing I never subscribed because this shit would've earned an unsub.
? Why because the dude's a greedy slave owner who lives on a desert world ruled by a gangster? Yeah, no. That doesn't entirely fit the stereotype and he's an alien in a universe that doesn't have any of the religion's we have in real life.
I didn't know gambling and owning slaves are Jewish stereotypes... Having a big nose and liking to make money doesn't mean you are Jewish. By that same criteria you could argue a Watto is Turkish... They have big noses and love to haggle. I mean assuming that all Wattos are just like Greedo... Oh wait, isn't that prejudice?
There's all kinds of reasons. The bullies will just come back; the bullies friends will join in; the bullies will get the benefit of the doubt; etc. I was told that a coworker of mine stood up to one and his boss twisted it as pride, he got ganged up on, was never asked of his side of the story, and had to jump through hoops while the bully was excused.
By relying on a higher authority to resolve their problems, this predisposes and ingrains in children subservience to higher authorities, preparing them to be serfs to the government.
Well shit, why even have police? BTW, they aren't saying NOT to stand up to bullies, they are saying that bullies in past movies were given power BY authority. Sounds like you bunch of morons WERE bullies.
RDJs role in Tropic Thunder was making fun of the fact, that Hollywood would rather use a white accomplished actor in blackface rather than a actual black actor. They made a huge point out of it, when they showed his backstory, when he was preparing for that role and the role before that. Before his blackface he went to india i think and lived there making shoes to prepare for a role. His blackface was satirical and poking fun at the practice as a whole.
I took the cast as a joke about the industry's habit of casting an action star with a comedian, rap star, and/or academy award caliber actor in action flicks in an effort to attract movie-goers of varying genres. RDJ was the academy star that played layers (I'm a dude playing a dude disguised an another dude).Anyone thinking this was a slight to black people is too sensitive.
there was multiple levels to the joke. The first was the method acting elements of RDJ character along with the extreme lengths he took for the role. Like not breaking character until after the dvd commentary. The other layer was that a good black supporting part was given to a white actor instead of a black actor, forcing him to go into blackface, in general, the script would just be whitewashed, but this being a "historic" movie the character's race was already known so he put on black face.
this video is shit. you're glosing over all the male on female violence. as all wrong and yet you even show one where she tried to hit the man and he only turned her around and lightly kicked her bum ..she fucking deserved it.
@@somerandomguy6749 haha based on all your other comments at the other comments and refusing to ever say something back, its pretty evident you're either just another dumbass troll. Or the dumb racist yourself and cant justify your bs!
Your right, the decline in decent movies has come about because now the only acceptable movie is a one written by a LGBTQZ (insert further Alphabet letters here) about a Black, Gender Fluid person who discovers that being a vegan and fuking dolphins is the meaning of life!!!!
Visit any channel about entertainment and quick facts that for some reason is associated to "pc culture", as Buzzfeed. You will find at least one video with as many dislikes as likes and it's comments section flooded with conservatives ecoing in unisson how much they hate feminism, libtards, anti-gun and pro-choice people and what not, for no good reason at all. You are definitely changing the world by going to your supposed enemies' channels and barking ill researched beliefs in mass and making anyone wonder which side of the "pc culture war" DOESN'T have completely deluded retards. Apparently agreeing with anything your enemies feminists and leftists have to say is a crime now... as if the "casual rape trope" should definitely be allowed to fly by as no big deal on movies these days.
@@joshgellis9463 is it racist when the Wayne brothers do white face? As a mixed race person I don't understand what difference it makes. Nobody chooses the color they're born and nobody means any harm by it.
I don't overly see the issue for it now adays, unless it's being used in a specifically racist way. The reason it was such an issue back then, however, is people of color really didn't get leading roles. They more or less weren't allowed, so it would have been quite the kick in the balls to see a white person dawning some make-up and playing a role any actual person of color could have.
***** Of course I understand It had a negative stigma back in the day, when was the last time you saw blackface in a modern movie that was done overtly? It just doesn't happen any more, it's all for comedic purposes with no malice.
herranton1979 Does it though? I mean I've only ever seen the film it came from once, so I could very well be remembering this wrong, but I don't recall many stereo types in it. All I remember is a white actor, dressed to look black, acting as a white actor would. Then again I may just have to go look at it again.
the only one that I would very strongly agree with is rating horror movies as PG. I'm glad they now have more categories. Then if there are any of these other topics that are too much for small children to handle, you can rate them PG 13. Problem solved.
It is still one of my favorite movies! The thing a lot of people don't get is, the biggest idiots in the film are the WHITE GUYS. If anything, the movie makes fun of white people and our stereotypical attitudes. I guess you have to be a little bit perceptive to get the humor fully... Besides, where do y'all think that salsa company got the idea for their "New York City?!" commercial? Hmmm?
Idk only people I see getting offended is people like you. You cry about fucking everything that might have the slightest possibility it could be considered "SJW." I swear I could say "man, nazis suck" and hear half of you bitches whine about how I'm such a fucking feminist lol
The Breakfast Club would not happen today. 1. Clarke's hazing would go viral. 2. Johnson's gun in the locker would have made the news and he would have gone to MHS lockdown. 3. Claire's family would have bulliied the administration out of the detention, short of threatening a lawsuit. 4. Bender would have blown it off. 5. Ally would have never shown up. 6. There are always at least teachers on campus on weekends. They would have not been left alone in the library.
Personally I think the main reason a lot of those tropes wouldn't happen in modern productions is be ause the context changed, not just because they became less tolerable. Now, the presence of smartphones, different policies to handle fighting and bullying and other forms of bullying (cyberbullying for one) mean things would be quite different. However, a production set in the past usually portrays how a different context, though the sensibilities will mix between portraying the balues of those days and those of now to make it accurate but pallatable to the audience
Who cares, it's a movie. All these things can happen in the same movie and it wouldn't matter. It's all about telling a story, if your story has to do with a race being outcasted it doesn't mean you believe it, it means the people in the story you created believe it.
But it's not just a movie it sways people's mindset for the worst. Like stereotypes in movies make people think that's how a certain group of people are and they act on it; for example many movies show black men as dangerous when people watch the movies they think they are dangerous so they walk across the street when they see a black man.
Movie Games the difference with Blazing Saddles was that it was satirically exposing racism in Hollywood. The other examples on this list are just flat out racist.
I had a bully in high school. I confronted said bully one day, broke his nose, and got suspended. However, no more bully AND a few days of vacation from school. Win-Win!
@mastershake9801 THANK YOU! I was being bullied until I got the green light from my parents, (they taught me to not fight in school), to take care of the problem. Next time out, me and the bully went toe-to-toe and after I whipped his @$$, no more problems...from ANYone. The cool part was, my teachers let me make up the work I missed because of the suspension.
I'd have thought 'child triumphing over their bully' would be seen as more of a victory than 'bully is disciplined by an authority figure,' but apparently not from what watchmojo has to say.
The sad thing is that people now think that authorities care because they now deal with bullies. When in actuality the authority figures are told they should care and have forms to fill in to show how they care about bullying. Truth is they don't give a hoot like teachers of the past it's just they have to do it now
Exactly had similar story. It was a modern morality tale. Handle things on your own. Grow some balls and show them you Have a backbone to stand up for your self.
I love how the first one mentioned is 'everybody smokes(cigarettes)', yet modern films show characters smoking cannabis and taking other drugs! They also don't seem to understand that films often portrayed racism, sexism, bullying, slavery etc. to highlight bad things/attitudes that happen(ed) in society to make people think about them.
I get what you're saying about drugs and smoking today, however, the difference is that today, ratings are influenced by those things, and they weren't before. You will not find PG films with drugs and smoking, they will have higher ratings. PG stands for "parental guidance", and only "G" is "for everybody". So honestly, it's up to the consumer at this point to be aware of ratings. But I agree, it's being portrayed as "insignificant" for sure. As if nothing's wrong with doing drugs.
Half are right, half are wrong....looking at the screen I'd say the right side is correct, and the left side is wrong....just like in real life.......see what I did there?
the problem is we feel the need impose our morality on things that came out years before. What is is.....we can not change the past...dont ignore it...dont cover it up ..learn and move on
If we did not look upon past horrors with modern eyes, doomed, to repeat them aren't we. Some of those things should be teaching tools but never again templates for behaviors to recreate. If you mean, don't overly dwell upon them, instead of move on and not hold them as examples then yeah.
Exactly right. People think of Abraham Lincoln as a great American president today, but if we were to analyze some of his beliefs when he was alive some of the things he believed would be racist when compared to the standards of today.
Standing up for yourself is great. But some people can't due to certain anxiety issues. If you can stand up for yourself, great. But if not, there is absolutely no shame in asking for help
@ iwishicouldbefunny You’re right. There is no harm in ASKING for help. And sometimes that is exactly what should happen. The one being bullied should ask for help so they can learn how to do that, not have an adult step in before being asked. I’m not saying that bullying is ok, but it is a scenario in the “growing up” process that kids should learn from and use later in life... “can I handle this myself or do I need help?”....NOT “I should just be scared and hide until somebody else voluntarily steps in on my behalf to solve my problems for me”
Well some people are more sensitive than others and if you knew anything on how a child's brain develops than you should know that not every child can suppress their emotions
pizza steve then those kids will just have to grow up, mature and get thicker skin. But yes I also agree with “iwishicouldbefunny” but still even kids with such anxiety will have to face it and grow from it at some point
ZIEGLER MONSTER And don't forget: these days if you're a kid and get beat up by a bully, you get in trouble too, since "it takes two to fight" (so glad I was in college instead of high school when the "zero tolerance " bullshit started)
Oh my god! What I would do to my bullies now, and what I would say to some of my stupid teachers now too now I realise they didn't have half the power I thought they had.
ZIEGLER MONSTER - in the REAL WORLD, before the communists in public schools adopted "zero tolerance" policies, the Bully eventually met someone that put him in his place. Now, kids have to deal with it by coming to school with a gun and shooting everyone that would not stand up against their tormentors. Liberals in the public school system brought this shit into fruition... probably by design so they can take guns away from everyone.
A major problem that's still present now is 'who through the first punch' gets in trouble. Problem is that bullies started verbal abuse and stealing/breaking property. So I almost ended up killing my bullies this one day. I'm glad this problem was addressed because it didn't teach me to be tough, it taught me how to hate and despise all of humanity, and how to unleash it to whomever was unlucky enough in my way. I was turning into a little psychopath and I'm glad I didn't have a firearm because I couldn't overpower my bullies with my muscle strength, so I most certainly would have ended up on the news. And though good people came to save my soul eventually, it still lead to over 20 years of therapy. So I just want to say, "F*ck Off, and go to hell" to whoever thinks that bullying isn't a big deal. I don't like how it's still being addressed today, but I do see that it's much better than before.

You can't depict a period piece about the 40s or 50s with the cultural attitudes that actually existed back then? "Where are all of the authority figures to deal with the bullying?" They actually didn't care back then or ever until Columbine. That's the reality. Stop neutering our movies.

Either way is actually correct, Nazi or German. The Nazi party wasn't a "movement" when Hitler took power, it wasn't a "movement" when Hitler started WW2...It WAS the German government. Didn't you notice all the swastikas? A political "movement" didn't declare war, the nation did. The German government did. We fought Germany's army which is made up of.....Germans. I wonder if Germans said "Those damn Republicans (or Democrats)" when referring to Americans? Maybe they had real "grammar Nazis"? This all ridiculous anyway, if you have to go kill people who gives a flying fuck what you call them? War ain't pretty. Never will be. (Funny how Hitler practiced a religion based on Judaism as he was trying to wipe out the Jews, he was Catholic wasn't he?) Oh wait...Catholicism isn't based on the bible, never mind.
No. Because to be an officer in the German military at the time, or to be considered for future promotion from private. You had to be a member of the Nazi party. So, more than 90% of all German soldiers were Nazis. Plus. The German military’s oath included the pledge to protect and serve *the Nazi party leadership*. Not the person who is president at the time, like our military. So, they were in direct service to the Nazi party, not their country, making them Nazis.
IcantSignIn in Germany at the start of WW2. The Nazi party was the only politically party you could be a part of, as every other political party was outlawed. So, you were either a Nazi, or you weren’t part of the government. That’s a far cry from the reality in the US, so your analogy makes zero sense. If our military pledged an Oath directly to the Republican or Democrat parties; as the Germans did to the Nazis. Then yes, you could call them Republican/Democrats instead of Americans. Just as Russians were referred to as Commies / The Reds, because you were either a Communist, or you weren’t a part of their government/military.

“not fly today” meaning the vast majority of people wouldn’t go see it, and would encourage others not to see it either. It’s not like they were outlawed. Just like most people understand tricking someone into sex is a crime, so using it as a joke is in bad taste.
Almost... while a lot of SJWs are straight white men, they never complain about injustice or unfair treatment as straight white men. They only have concern for NON straight people and NON white people. As such they are continuing a long tradition (starting with the abolition of slavery worldwide) of white people advocating for the rights/ issues of OTHER people, while ignoring or downplaying their own issues.

I get it but even today standards are wack women can attack men and rape men and nothing happened but a man slaps a woman or is drunk and has sex with a drunk women, which I should mention there have been studied where women are taking pills that get them more intoxicated so when they take a guy home or go home with a guy when they wake they can claim rape YAY women there are enough bad guys out there women don't need to be setting up the decent ones.
For me that's the whole point of it. I believe one has to measure if the purpose of a portrayal of a character in a time and setting where it was socially acceptable to be racist, or demeaning to women or whatever is for the sole purpose of realism and nothing else. Encouraging these practices and/or ignoring them altogether is what's wrong.
Because what it all comes down to is how you react to a character. If I see a character being racist i would like him/her less. Which may be the point for a villian. And they complain that things like slavery and rape was shrugged off. Well in those times no one stood up for it so what do you want to do. Pause the film and have some text rolling across saying "RAPE IS BAD AND SO IS SLAVERY! DON'T DO IT"
You mean like Joffrey in which the actor had such success in making his character portrayal one of the few universally hated villains. It's always been my belief that a good hero/goodvsbad story should be much more dependent on the villain than anything else.
There's a difference, of course. Those classic movies were not even trying to disturb people (unless they were horror films, of course); they actually thought they were being wholesome. Now filmmakers are called "old-school" if they offend just for the sake of offending - and, of course, they have to throw sexual stuff in there, too, just to prove they're doing so.
SeasideDetective2 exactly. Mossy of the movies they showcased here addressed the issue at hands by putting into the limelight, not just mindless drivel like most today's movies.

"most bullies got their come upins in the end, it usually wasn't by an authority figure" .... YES! that was the point! to teach a lesson of STANDING UP FOR YOURSELF. to have a backbone to stand up to bullies yourself.
Roman - Yep. It’s the reason I keep a book copy of Return of the King next to my DVDs. So when the Hobbits return home I pause to read “The scouring of the Shire”. My favourite part of the story. To show that all their adventures taught them to stand up against ruffians.
"You mean I'm going to stay this color?" That was the absolute _funniest_ line ever in any movie! I laughed so hard the first time I saw it there was a moment where I was scared I wouldn't breathe again.
Linda Hoekstra PC is not an insult. I'm just talking about how sometimes people get way too offended by nothing. For example, yesterday I saw an article saying English Football supporters shouldn't be allowed to wear a knight costume (a football tradition) in case it offends Muslims.
Yes you can, if you're a victim of straight white males. And if you're not a straight white male, you're a victim of them. When oh when will the oppression stop?
Yeah, Hollywood. Showing white men as incompetent, stupid, cuckholded, push overs. Of course white men are individualistic for the most part. Truth be told, white men see Civilization and Reality with Socially acceptable trends with defined boundaries. Step outside and white men will take care of it. From the smallest infraction to nuking your ass. It defines and brackets history, it builds technology, engineering and science. It takes a belief system that is built on mathematical precision. Gravity is a bitch and reality can be a fickle whore. Know this, Western Civilization and Modern Society find its roots in the Renaisance and the Age of Enlightenment. All Hail the Thinking Man. By their Civilization you will know them.
I don't see how having a character that happens to be bisexual and transgender means the filmmakers are stating that that character represents all people who are bisexual and transgender in real life. Also, that does not make him a stereotype? What is he meant to be a stereotype of?
As above, I don't see how having a character that happens to be bisexual and transgender means the filmmakers are stating that that character represents all people who are bisexual and transgender in real life.
There is no evidence in the film "Silence of the Lambs" that Buffalo Bill is either bisexual or transgender. At most he's portrayed as a cross dresser.
I think Buffalo Bill is a stereotype of a mentally ill, sexually perverted, serial killer who was (no doubt) horrifically abused as a child (as virtually all rapists, serial killers sexual predators are). Like all stereotypes, it is based on statistical reality. Another stereotype we can observe is that of transgender/ non heterosexual people who feel they should enjoy the special privilege of never being depicted in a negative light in movies ...... as if transgenderism/ non heterosexuality is some sort of cult. Which increasingly it seems to be becoming ..... (transtrenders etc)
But with that sate of mind, you would also conclude that a psychopathic straight person would perpetuate the stereotype that straight people are inherently violent?
"Casual attitude towards slavery" Well, no. If the movie is portraying history in an accurate manner, it does not mean anything about it's "attitude". Except that it's not lying. Historical depiction is not a trope, as far as I'm aware. It's pretty backwards to imply that you should in fact NOT be accurate historically, just so your attitude is acceptable. Seems dangerously ignorant, in fact.
More Gun Free Man that’s what I thought at first but if you watch the video for like two more seconds, she means the slaves appearing happy to be slaves would no longer be seen in movies
Yes, not portraying certain societies as casually accepting slavery is whitewashing history. Curiously enough, this video says that a different type of whitewashing would be unacceptable today... the whitewashing that did not depict the cruelty that was commonplace against slaves.
It's worse than that...they complained about generalizations in the previous example, then proceed to generalize in the next one regarding slavery, an extremely complex sociological topic.
I think society has REGRESSED not “progressed.” This perpetual, “I’m offended at everything” is 1.) annoying and 2.) destroyed comedy. We all did it in fun! We CELEBRATED our differences by laughing at each other and everyone got along. Today, everyone is a bunch of selfish, entitled, spineless, pansies.
I have got to agree with the new rating system though. I watched some movies as a young kid that should have been rated PG 13. So many nightmares could have been avoided by a proper rating system.
@@lightbulb8869 : Having PG-13 is good. Red Dawn started all that in 1984. But we shouldn't be so easily offended by everything. We have no real comedy anymore.
RunFor OurLives that’s like saying there are many different types of feminists. It sounds good on paper but the reality of the situation is that it’s progressed and devolved into what it is now. Either left or right. There’s no middle ground these last few years. So if you lean to the left you will unfortunately be placed in the same room with the rest of the left.
Geez, you really are disappointed that you don't have heroes to cheer as these rape and abuse women? You have some twisted values. Why do you enjoy things like that?
I almost wrote a whole page just on this subject alone. Anyone who knows the Indiana Jones movies knows his motivation ("This belongs in a museum!") was to preserve cultural artifacts mostly because someone else was intent on getting them and selling them off (or using them for nefarious purposes). This list got so many things wrong it's impossible to logistically address them all.
There are lessons to be learned behind most of these tropes. We have unfortunately taught newer generations to become more fragile emotionally, physically, and psychologically.
@@heatherscott8499 name one fucking movie that contains abuse or rape that doesn't take a woman being raped or assaulted seriously. Just one! Because I think that since half the people that are in Hollywood are liberals anyway, there isn't going to be someone making a movie glorifying rape and assault/abuse.
@@heatherscott8499 so now if someone watches a movie with a rape scenario they are a rapist? Or if they watch Roots or Inglorious Basterds they are biggoted? I don't know how you get along in life with that attitude.
There are lots of things that aren't offensive in and of themselves, it's their overuse. No group likes to be portrayed the same way all the time--it doesn't reflect their reality, and it's insulting. Filmmakers these days still use that trope, but it's balanced against a lot of storylines where women save themselves, or save men, or work together. You're also generalizing about feminists. We don't all think The Same Things. I've never met a feminist who disliked tough female characters.
+TVBnine Female characters can still be feminine without bring completely helpless, this isn't a new concept. It's totally possible for a female character to be more than just a damsel but still keep her femininity.
OK...again...there are no slaves in "Song of the South". So what you said makes zero sense. The "very things" that put the movie on this list are portrayals of African Americans in the American South, and the idea that these are offensive stereotypes. But again, there are no "slavery scenes" in the film.
"Bullies may be the villains of some classic kids movies, but why the hell do the parents or teachers never seem to care what's going on?" Seems pretty accurate for 30 years ago.
@@wanderinwolf3804 Dozens of school shootings later and people still pretend that they give a damn and want to do something about it. It's pretty pathetic at this point. Just going around in circles.
Love how they show THE QUIET MAN for violence against women, one of the plot points in the movie is that he won't treat her like that but she insists that he does
Not to mention that he wasn't being violent at all. Pushing / dragging a person to a meeting that they need to get to isn't violence. That's like saying holding down a drug addict in withdrawal is "violence against addicts".
These were real movies, Hollywood sucks so bad today, all we have are the old movies. They couldn't make a good movie now if they had too. We let a small group of freaks dictate what we do. We are the morons.
Old school movies: Bullies are a thing and you should stand up for yourself because mommy isn't going to be there your whole life to help you this was the better way to do it
Eerie, great in theory but the real world doesn't work out like that. There will always be that kid that just won't listen, or that one parent who thinks their kid can do no wrong.
Trigger warning? AHAHAHAHA. This channel sinks to a new low.
Explain to me what is wrong with trigger warnings. I'm still yet to find a good answer.

Because it's pandering to the sensitivities of adult people with a range of "no-no" so wide, you might as well be talking to little children. It's pathetic.
+Aivottaja It doesn't necessarily have to be though. When you're talking about stuff like rape it is necessary to give a warning because there could be a possible rape victim listening to you. Do you think that rape victims are too sensitive?
what about people with ptsd?
*****
There is no way to know what kind of things are sensitive to whomever, except graphic violence and things children are not allowed to see. That's why we have viewer discretions. This video doesn't contain anything worthy of that.
Besides, you don't give "trigger warnings" for difficult subjects such as sexual violence. Trigger warning is a fucking safeword for the SJW mentality. They're basically warnings for people that they might feel the need to discuss something or express their opinion, perhaps passionately.

"collecting cultural artifacts?" Seriously?
I turned the video off after that.
We have a right to collect those artifacts. Science trumps cultural "values". Not all cultures are equal. They just aren't. Western values are the only correct ones and always will be. You can't fault the West for being superior. Only we have the right values and morals.
AirCooledMan2006 I agreed with the first two sentences of yours, then you got a tad bit nationalistic. I prefer Western Culture and believe that it has contributed more to the world than any other regarding the bigger picture, but I would not use the term "superior" by any means, because no culture is really "superior", which is a term one cannot really even define. And there is no such thing as a single correct set of morals and values, by any means.
If you go further east, past the middle east that is, there are some asian countries that are very honor and respect based cultures. I can make some arguments for that over the 'everyone for himself and HEAR MY OPINION' culture we have in the west.
MisterCharlton
Western culture IS superior. PEOPLE are equal. CULTURES are not.
That said, what the fuck do the SJWs want to do? Stop archaeology? It's this "let's respect other cultures" mindset that holds back scientific progress! Modernity and science trump cultural traditions, tribal or otherwise!
I'm offended that everything is offensive now days.
If it's so offensive, they can now rate it as PG 13 and young, impressionable children won't watch it.
Wow you are sooooo stupid.
Jimmy M - it isn’t that it’s necessarily offensive, it’s more that we’ve outgrown these perspectives culturally and intellectually. They reflect the assumptions of their time, which are no longer relevant.
For example, slaves were not content and jovial in their servitude and no woman ever benefitted from being slapped.
Adam Murdoch - so a good slap does sort a woman out and being a slave was just a jolly sing-along?
Adam Murdoch - haha, no bother. The TH-cam comments section isn’t the easiest thing to follow.
Violence against women is totally okay. When the woman is violent as well. Or if she is a superhero. Or a supervillain.
A time and a place. The "Violence against women" shown in this video though was actually awful however. Getting slapped by a man to "Calm her down" is wrong (especially if she completely ignores it and is somehow still oh-so romantically engaged by the guy). Getting beat in an actual fight is not. Getting choked by a big violent alien villain is certainly not.
+Kate Apples And yet violence against men is OK and is common place, yet any depictions of a woman being struck is oh so terrible. Why should women be placed on a pedestal and treated like children?
WatchMojo has a video about the best male/female fights in movies. In all of the scenes the fights were fair, it wasn't a man beating on a woman for no reason.
"When the woman is violent as well. Or if she is a superhero. Or a supervillain."
It's not treated like it is in films.....
+Disciple of Khorne think about who tends to be the person beating up on a man for no reason. Hint: it's rarely a woman.
Yet the critics of these tropes seem to be projecting prejudices and stereotypes of their own. The female critic says it's not right for men to hit women yet says nothing about women hitting men. Doesn't this smack of reverse sexism?
this movie was a bad excuse for a PC rant
Haha, hell, in one clip a woman made a full lunge at the man, but it was the man that was being horrible when he lightly tapped her butt with his foot in response. Amazing.
But those portrayals were sexist. It's not saying you can't show any violence towards women.
It was about tropes that won't fly today, not tropes that will fly today and that is a trope that is okay as far as film makers are concerned...
Just like the black/brown/yellow face, but no mention of white face, like in the movie white chicks.
And after you get rid of all these funny things you end up with the new ghostbusters
Why are they women how terrible
Uhm, no. Aside from a smoking Ray those things were not present in the Ghostbusters movies. And look at those horrible trailers for the new one, they're full of stereotypes. There are legit reasons to be very cautious of that movie but yours isn't one of them and, in fact, you are exactly why legit criticism gets shot down.
Funny how they never mentioned Ray getting "raped" by a ghost.
SAVAGE
There was a casual rape joke in that movie when Peter calls the station to tell them about Dana/Zool. He says that he's drugged her up and then says something along the lines of "don't worry, I'm behaving myself."
This world is way too soft now. It’s freaking ridiculous!
Hayden Isaacs Here toughie toughie!
You are so right. Those movies are so much better because they don’t care.
So you are saying that it is ok to use racial stereotypes non-satirically? Or picture women in a demeaning way?
It is just a story. It is not real life. Plus people being other races was to show appreciation for them because they were slaves not actors.
@@badmadison5734 so you are saying black face was a celebration of African American culture rather than a racist effigy meant to make fun of and dehumanize African Americans?

so everything in movies must be pc and not reflect real life. cool beans man
The thing is, back then, the films did reflect real life. But nowadays real life is different; if you see a woman getting slapped you'd probably help, but back in the day, people didn't.
+Grant Williams some slaves had relatively good positions so they all don't hate them. And lots of shows reflect real life, most of them are cartoons that are satiric but lots of forms of media reflect real life. Hell, most forms of media are based on real life.
Too late.

If a woman hits a man, she's a hero. But if a man hits a woman, people call it an act of abusive harassment. Does anybody else see anything wrong here?
Is it a double-standard? Absolutely. It's just on part of the whole problem though.
A. We shouldn't be promoting violence as a positive thing except in extreme circumstances.
B. It's indicative that we have different behavioural expectations of men and women. It's not really about one gender or another - it's about how we create arbitrary rules based on genitalia/outward appearance that should either apply to everyone or no one.
*sigh*
I believe the term you are looking for is "politically correctness" or "feminism." AKA bull crap. It's bad either way.
No one has called a woman a hero for hitting a man. Your claim is idiotic.
But in case you're questioning whether it's abusive to hit a woman, yes it is. Do you know what abuse is?
It makes her an abuser. It makes her an unstable person unable to control herself, just like it does a man. It's the same offence. But there is a double standard because we are not equal.
+Mikihara that's bullshit. Anytime a women hits a man, the man is asked if he provoked her, and is victim blamed. The women also gets a pat on the back, the man gets belittled, and laughed at.
Bullying was a big theme in Harry Potter. No one ever did anything about Draco. The only person who did was Barty Crouch. Even in the books, Dumbledore, McGonagall, and all the others gave zero fucks.
Cause besides Dumbledore, McGonagall, and Hagrid the rest were either afraid of his father or the story is somehow too typical for bullies.
Apart from anything else the maurders in Harry Potter are glorified to the high heavens, when in reality they were nothing more than a group of bullies, they were far worse then Draco,he's barely a bully they had maybe 2/3 arguments per book, James physically tortured Snape on a daily basis for years

Why NOT teach kids to stand up to bullies, instead of waiting for an authority figure to intervene?
That's what I wondered
There's all kinds of reasons. The bullies will just come back; the bullies friends will join in; the bullies will get the benefit of the doubt; etc. I was told that a coworker of mine stood up to one and his boss twisted it as pride, he got ganged up on, was never asked of his side of the story, and had to jump through hoops while the bully was excused.
I'm sorry, but you're giving WAY too much unjustified power to the bullies. Standing up for yourself is the ONLY way to defeat them.
By relying on a higher authority to resolve their problems, this predisposes and ingrains in children subservience to higher authorities, preparing them to be serfs to the government.
Well shit, why even have police? BTW, they aren't saying NOT to stand up to bullies, they are saying that bullies in past movies were given power BY authority. Sounds like you bunch of morons WERE bullies.

RDJs role in Tropic Thunder was making fun of the fact, that Hollywood would rather use a white accomplished actor in blackface rather than a actual black actor. They made a huge point out of it, when they showed his backstory, when he was preparing for that role and the role before that. Before his blackface he went to india i think and lived there making shoes to prepare for a role. His blackface was satirical and poking fun at the practice as a whole.
I think the point of the blackface is satirizing actors who go to extreme lenghts for their role. Think DeNiro in "Raging Bull".
I took the cast as a joke about the industry's habit of casting an action star with a comedian, rap star, and/or academy award caliber actor in action flicks in an effort to attract movie-goers of varying genres. RDJ was the academy star that played layers (I'm a dude playing a dude disguised an another dude).Anyone thinking this was a slight to black people is too sensitive.
there was multiple levels to the joke. The first was the method acting elements of RDJ character along with the extreme lengths he took for the role. Like not breaking character until after the dvd commentary.
The other layer was that a good black supporting part was given to a white actor instead of a black actor, forcing him to go into blackface, in general, the script would just be whitewashed, but this being a "historic" movie the character's race was already known so he put on black face.
and the real black actor was left as the background character without any real lines. you knot that token b lack guy@@TheBanshee90

Visit any channel about entertainment and quick facts that for some reason is associated to "pc culture", as Buzzfeed. You will find at least one video with as many dislikes as likes and it's comments section flooded with conservatives ecoing in unisson how much they hate feminism, libtards, anti-gun and pro-choice people and what not, for no good reason at all.
You are definitely changing the world by going to your supposed enemies' channels and barking ill researched beliefs in mass and making anyone wonder which side of the "pc culture war" DOESN'T have completely deluded retards.
Apparently agreeing with anything your enemies feminists and leftists have to say is a crime now... as if the "casual rape trope" should definitely be allowed to fly by as no big deal on movies these days.

@@joshgellis9463 is it racist when the Wayne brothers do white face? As a mixed race person I don't understand what difference it makes. Nobody chooses the color they're born and nobody means any harm by it.

Congrats you are a moron considering you know that the joke was he was a white guy in blackface.
I don't see the big deal with blackface, if a black guy did whiteface I wouldn't be offended at all.
Yeah! Like the movie White Chicks!
Porch Fyre Exactly, White Chicks was hilarious.
I don't overly see the issue for it now adays, unless it's being used in a specifically racist way. The reason it was such an issue back then, however, is people of color really didn't get leading roles. They more or less weren't allowed, so it would have been quite the kick in the balls to see a white person dawning some make-up and playing a role any actual person of color could have.
***** Of course I understand It had a negative stigma back in the day, when was the last time you saw blackface in a modern movie that was done overtly? It just doesn't happen any more, it's all for comedic purposes with no malice.
herranton1979 Does it though? I mean I've only ever seen the film it came from once, so I could very well be remembering this wrong, but I don't recall many stereo types in it. All I remember is a white actor, dressed to look black, acting as a white actor would. Then again I may just have to go look at it again.

10 Movie Tropes that offend social justice warriors at Watch Mojo headquarters.
YES!!!
the only one that I would very strongly agree with is rating horror movies as PG. I'm glad they now have more categories. Then if there are any of these other topics that are too much for small children to handle, you can rate them PG 13. Problem solved.

I LOVE Blazing Saddles! Never loses its Humor! Going to watch it again now!
He said the sherriff is near!!!!
And the people who made this list seem to be ignorant to the fact that Richard Pryor was one of the writers on the film.

It had moments of humor.
It is still one of my favorite movies! The thing a lot of people don't get is, the biggest idiots in the film are the WHITE GUYS. If anything, the movie makes fun of white people and our stereotypical attitudes. I guess you have to be a little bit perceptive to get the humor fully...
Besides, where do y'all think that salsa company got the idea for their "New York City?!" commercial? Hmmm?
Slightly off subject, but I heard that Richard Pryor was originally going to be in "Blazing Saddles". How come he ended up not being in it?

The Breakfast Club would not happen today.
1. Clarke's hazing would go viral.
2. Johnson's gun in the locker would have made the news and he would have gone to MHS lockdown.
3. Claire's family would have bulliied the administration out of the detention, short of threatening a lawsuit.
4. Bender would have blown it off.
5. Ally would have never shown up.
6. There are always at least teachers on campus on weekends. They would have not been left alone in the library.
Personally I think the main reason a lot of those tropes wouldn't happen in modern productions is be ause the context changed, not just because they became less tolerable. Now, the presence of smartphones, different policies to handle fighting and bullying and other forms of bullying (cyberbullying for one) mean things would be quite different. However, a production set in the past usually portrays how a different context, though the sensibilities will mix between portraying the balues of those days and those of now to make it accurate but pallatable to the audience
Who cares, it's a movie. All these things can happen in the same movie and it wouldn't matter. It's all about telling a story, if your story has to do with a race being outcasted it doesn't mean you believe it, it means the people in the story you created believe it.
Yes, thank you, I entirely agree!
Your comment is perfect!
Thank you good sir I was thinking the same way but couldn't actually figure out how to put it.
But it's not just a movie it sways people's mindset for the worst. Like stereotypes in movies make people think that's how a certain group of people are and they act on it; for example many movies show black men as dangerous when people watch the movies they think they are dangerous so they walk across the street when they see a black man.
Yes after watching 10 WW2 movies i have determined that all Germans are Nazis.
We'll never have great movies like Blazing Saddles ever again.
Movie Games That's a classic!!
What does Blazing Saddles have to do with this? I don't think it's being oversensitive to say that people don't want to see blackface anymore.
just let Tarantino make it
Movie Games the difference with Blazing Saddles was that it was satirically exposing racism in Hollywood. The other examples on this list are just flat out racist.
Says a lot about how "enlightened" our society has become, a movie like _Blazing Saddles_ would be impossible, forbidden, and condemned today.
I had a bully in high school. I confronted said bully one day, broke his nose, and got suspended. However, no more bully AND a few days of vacation from school. Win-Win!
@mastershake9801
THANK YOU!
I was being bullied until I got the green light from my parents, (they taught me to not fight in school), to take care of the problem. Next time out, me and the bully went toe-to-toe and after I whipped his @$$, no more problems...from ANYone. The cool part was, my teachers let me make up the work I missed because of the suspension.
I'd have thought 'child triumphing over their bully' would be seen as more of a victory than 'bully is disciplined by an authority figure,' but apparently not from what watchmojo has to say.
The sad thing is that people now think that authorities care because they now deal with bullies. When in actuality the authority figures are told they should care and have forms to fill in to show how they care about bullying. Truth is they don't give a hoot like teachers of the past it's just they have to do it now
Cue Brent Rambo gif.
Exactly had similar story. It was a modern morality tale. Handle things on your own. Grow some balls and show them you Have a backbone to stand up for your self.
I love how the first one mentioned is 'everybody smokes(cigarettes)', yet modern films show characters smoking cannabis and taking other drugs!
They also don't seem to understand that films often portrayed racism, sexism, bullying, slavery etc. to highlight bad things/attitudes that happen(ed) in society to make people think about them.
I get what you're saying about drugs and smoking today, however, the difference is that today, ratings are influenced by those things, and they weren't before. You will not find PG films with drugs and smoking, they will have higher ratings. PG stands for "parental guidance", and only "G" is "for everybody". So honestly, it's up to the consumer at this point to be aware of ratings. But I agree, it's being portrayed as "insignificant" for sure. As if nothing's wrong with doing drugs.

Exactly right. People think of Abraham Lincoln as a great American president today, but if we were to analyze some of his beliefs when he was alive some of the things he believed would be racist when compared to the standards of today.
The bully one is why kids are soft today. You gotta learn to cope with bullying and stand up for yourself, instead of relying on someone else.
Standing up for yourself is great. But some people can't due to certain anxiety issues. If you can stand up for yourself, great. But if not, there is absolutely no shame in asking for help
@ iwishicouldbefunny You’re right. There is no harm in ASKING for help. And sometimes that is exactly what should happen. The one being bullied should ask for help so they can learn how to do that, not have an adult step in before being asked. I’m not saying that bullying is ok, but it is a scenario in the “growing up” process that kids should learn from and use later in life... “can I handle this myself or do I need help?”....NOT “I should just be scared and hide until somebody else voluntarily steps in on my behalf to solve my problems for me”

I dunno.. They made bullies seem bad and that you could stand up to them.. I like that more than running to mommy or a teacher with tear filled eyes
ZIEGLER MONSTER And don't forget: these days if you're a kid and get beat up by a bully, you get in trouble too, since "it takes two to fight" (so glad I was in college instead of high school when the "zero tolerance " bullshit started)
Oh my god! What I would do to my bullies now, and what I would say to some of my stupid teachers now too now I realise they didn't have half the power I thought they had.
ZIEGLER MONSTER - in the REAL WORLD, before the communists in public schools adopted "zero tolerance" policies, the Bully eventually met someone that put him in his place. Now, kids have to deal with it by coming to school with a gun and shooting everyone that would not stand up against their tormentors.
Liberals in the public school system brought this shit into fruition... probably by design so they can take guns away from everyone.
A major problem that's still present now is 'who through the first punch' gets in trouble. Problem is that bullies started verbal abuse and stealing/breaking property. So I almost ended up killing my bullies this one day. I'm glad this problem was addressed because it didn't teach me to be tough, it taught me how to hate and despise all of humanity, and how to unleash it to whomever was unlucky enough in my way. I was turning into a little psychopath and I'm glad I didn't have a firearm because I couldn't overpower my bullies with my muscle strength, so I most certainly would have ended up on the news. And though good people came to save my soul eventually, it still lead to over 20 years of therapy. So I just want to say, "F*ck Off, and go to hell" to whoever thinks that bullying isn't a big deal. I don't like how it's still being addressed today, but I do see that it's much better than before.

Regarding 7. Historical movies about WW2, should always refer to germans as a germans (not nazis), otherwise it is the deception of history.
Piotr St exactly. This shit is ridiculous. Bunch of overly sensitive fucks.
This is true, the Nazi party was a movement in the German government, not every German was a “Nazi”. 100% agreed
Either way is actually correct, Nazi or German. The Nazi party wasn't a "movement" when Hitler took power, it wasn't a "movement" when Hitler started WW2...It WAS the German government. Didn't you notice all the swastikas? A political "movement" didn't declare war, the nation did. The German government did. We fought Germany's army which is made up of.....Germans.
I wonder if Germans said "Those damn Republicans (or Democrats)" when referring to Americans? Maybe they had real "grammar Nazis"?
This all ridiculous anyway, if you have to go kill people who gives a flying fuck what you call them? War ain't pretty. Never will be.
(Funny how Hitler practiced a religion based on Judaism as he was trying to wipe out the Jews, he was Catholic wasn't he?) Oh wait...Catholicism isn't based on the bible, never mind.
No. Because to be an officer in the German military at the time, or to be considered for future promotion from private. You had to be a member of the Nazi party. So, more than 90% of all German soldiers were Nazis.
Plus. The German military’s oath included the pledge to protect and serve *the Nazi party leadership*. Not the person who is president at the time, like our military. So, they were in direct service to the Nazi party, not their country, making them Nazis.
IcantSignIn in Germany at the start of WW2. The Nazi party was the only politically party you could be a part of, as every other political party was outlawed. So, you were either a Nazi, or you weren’t part of the government. That’s a far cry from the reality in the US, so your analogy makes zero sense.
If our military pledged an Oath directly to the Republican or Democrat parties; as the Germans did to the Nazis. Then yes, you could call them Republican/Democrats instead of Americans.
Just as Russians were referred to as Commies / The Reds, because you were either a Communist, or you weren’t a part of their government/military.

“not fly today” meaning the vast majority of people wouldn’t go see it, and would encourage others not to see it either.

It depends on how you define "trope." Subject matter and trope aren't necessarily the same thing.
"I'm a straight white man and I'm offended by this video"
Almost... while a lot of SJWs are straight white men, they never complain about injustice or unfair treatment as straight white men.
They only have concern for NON straight people and NON white people. As such they are continuing a long tradition (starting with the abolition of slavery worldwide) of white people advocating for the rights/ issues of OTHER people, while ignoring or downplaying their own issues.

She was a senior in HS. I graduated at 17 she could've as well. What are you even talking about? The whole movie was about a girl freshman getting with a senior (who could've been 18). Are you kidding??
I get it but even today standards are wack women can attack men and rape men and nothing happened but a man slaps a woman or is drunk and has sex with a drunk women, which I should mention there have been studied where women are taking pills that get them more intoxicated so when they take a guy home or go home with a guy when they wake they can claim rape YAY women there are enough bad guys out there women don't need to be setting up the decent ones.
Uhm no... she was completely unaware of what happened, although he drank he was conscious enough to show her off and get pictures
What if the character is racist
Excellent point Caleb.
For me that's the whole point of it. I believe one has to measure if the purpose of a portrayal of a character in a time and setting where it was socially acceptable to be racist, or demeaning to women or whatever is for the sole purpose of realism and nothing else. Encouraging these practices and/or ignoring them altogether is what's wrong.
Because what it all comes down to is how you react to a character. If I see a character being racist i would like him/her less. Which may be the point for a villian. And they complain that things like slavery and rape was shrugged off. Well in those times no one stood up for it so what do you want to do. Pause the film and have some text rolling across saying "RAPE IS BAD AND SO IS SLAVERY! DON'T DO IT"
You mean like Joffrey in which the actor had such success in making his character portrayal one of the few universally hated villains. It's always been my belief that a good hero/goodvsbad story should be much more dependent on the villain than anything else.
2 wrongs dick.
and thats why classic movies are soooo much better than half this modern trash....
There's a difference, of course. Those classic movies were not even trying to disturb people (unless they were horror films, of course); they actually thought they were being wholesome. Now filmmakers are called "old-school" if they offend just for the sake of offending - and, of course, they have to throw sexual stuff in there, too, just to prove they're doing so.

It defines and brackets history, it builds technology, engineering and science. It takes a belief system that is built on mathematical precision. Gravity is a bitch and reality can be a fickle whore. Know this, Western Civilization and Modern Society find its roots in the Renaisance and the Age of Enlightenment. All Hail the Thinking Man.
By their Civilization you will know them.
Sorry, how is Buffalo Bill a stereotype? A stereotype of what?
I don't see how having a character that happens to be bisexual and transgender means the filmmakers are stating that that character represents all people who are bisexual and transgender in real life.
Also, that does not make him a stereotype? What is he meant to be a stereotype of?
As above, I don't see how having a character that happens to be bisexual and transgender means the filmmakers are stating that that character represents all people who are bisexual and transgender in real life.
There is no evidence in the film "Silence of the Lambs" that Buffalo Bill is either bisexual or transgender. At most he's portrayed as a cross dresser.
I think Buffalo Bill is a stereotype of a mentally ill, sexually perverted, serial killer who was (no doubt) horrifically abused as a child (as virtually all rapists, serial killers sexual predators are).
Like all stereotypes, it is based on statistical reality.
Another stereotype we can observe is that of transgender/ non heterosexual people who feel they should enjoy the special privilege of never being depicted in a negative light in movies ...... as if transgenderism/ non heterosexuality is some sort of cult.
Which increasingly it seems to be becoming ..... (transtrenders etc)
But with that sate of mind, you would also conclude that a psychopathic straight person would perpetuate the stereotype that straight people are inherently violent?
"Casual attitude towards slavery" Well, no. If the movie is portraying history in an accurate manner, it does not mean anything about it's "attitude". Except that it's not lying. Historical depiction is not a trope, as far as I'm aware. It's pretty backwards to imply that you should in fact NOT be accurate historically, just so your attitude is acceptable. Seems dangerously ignorant, in fact.
More Gun Free Man that’s what I thought at first but if you watch the video for like two more seconds, she means the slaves appearing happy to be slaves would no longer be seen in movies
More Gun Free Man yes
Yes, not portraying certain societies as casually accepting slavery is whitewashing history. Curiously enough, this video says that a different type of whitewashing would be unacceptable today... the whitewashing that did not depict the cruelty that was commonplace against slaves.
Even saying slavery is bad these leftards will get offended.
It's worse than that...they complained about generalizations in the previous example, then proceed to generalize in the next one regarding slavery, an extremely complex sociological topic.
I think society has REGRESSED not “progressed.” This perpetual, “I’m offended at everything” is 1.) annoying and 2.) destroyed comedy. We all did it in fun!
We CELEBRATED our differences by laughing at each other and everyone got along. Today, everyone is a bunch of selfish, entitled, spineless, pansies.
I have got to agree with the new rating system though. I watched some movies as a young kid that should have been rated PG 13. So many nightmares could have been avoided by a proper rating system.
Light Bulb agreed! Lol
@@lightbulb8869 : Having PG-13 is good. Red Dawn started all that in 1984. But we shouldn't be so easily offended by everything. We have no real comedy anymore.
Don’t forget left wing.
RunFor OurLives that’s like saying there are many different types of feminists. It sounds good on paper but the reality of the situation is that it’s progressed and devolved into what it is now. Either left or right. There’s no middle ground these last few years. So if you lean to the left you will unfortunately be placed in the same room with the rest of the left.
everyone is offended by everything now, and that offends me
Racism?
just we got bored 😣
I'm offended by your offense! ; P
I'm offered by you being offended of people getting offended.
I'm offended by WatchMojo for suggesting that I should be offended.
Do I agree with your list?
HELL NO
Geez, you really are disappointed that you don't have heroes to cheer as these rape and abuse women? You have some twisted values. Why do you enjoy things like that?
Do I agree with this list? HELL YEA
How the fuck is collecting cultural artifacts offensive? Go home Watchmojo you're fucking out of it.
I almost wrote a whole page just on this subject alone. Anyone who knows the Indiana Jones movies knows his motivation ("This belongs in a museum!") was to preserve cultural artifacts mostly because someone else was intent on getting them and selling them off (or using them for nefarious purposes). This list got so many things wrong it's impossible to logistically address them all.
+Garrett York isn't the whole kingdom of doom movie about him returning the magics rocks to the Indians
I...I agree....
There are lessons to be learned behind most of these tropes. We have unfortunately taught newer generations to become more fragile emotionally, physically, and psychologically.
If anything men have become more sexist now than back in the early 2000s
Seriously get over yourselves, half this list incorrectly used or intentionally took things out of context to attempt to claim some moral high ground
Almost about to unsubscribe after this offering from Watchmojo
Thank you. That statement is so true. People need to just get a thinker skin. Everything offends everyone
Just can'r watch a movie without a good raping to cheer for or seeing a woman getting abused by your hero, eh? You must be so proud of yourself.
@@heatherscott8499 name one fucking movie that contains abuse or rape that doesn't take a woman being raped or assaulted seriously. Just one! Because I think that since half the people that are in Hollywood are liberals anyway, there isn't going to be someone making a movie glorifying rape and assault/abuse.
@@heatherscott8499 so now if someone watches a movie with a rape scenario they are a rapist? Or if they watch Roots or Inglorious Basterds they are biggoted? I don't know how you get along in life with that attitude.
whats so bad about the damsel in distress?
because its "sexist towards women"
Feminists hate when female characters are portrayed helpless.
And feminists hate when female characters are portrayed as super tough, thinking it's too masculine. Make up your minds
There are lots of things that aren't offensive in and of themselves, it's their overuse. No group likes to be portrayed the same way all the time--it doesn't reflect their reality, and it's insulting. Filmmakers these days still use that trope, but it's balanced against a lot of storylines where women save themselves, or save men, or work together.
You're also generalizing about feminists. We don't all think The Same Things. I've never met a feminist who disliked tough female characters.
+TVBnine Female characters can still be feminine without bring completely helpless, this isn't a new concept. It's totally possible for a female character to be more than just a damsel but still keep her femininity.
Actually, Song of the South was released on vhs in the uk
Yeah, it was actually sold on home video just about everywhere but the United States.
+Garrett York unedited? Becuase I remember having that on vhs here in the states but I don't remember any slavery scenes in it.
not sure what you mean by "slavery scenes"; there are no depictions of slaves in "Song of the South" as it takes place in post-Civil War Georgia.
+Garrett York um the very things that put song of the south on this video list
OK...again...there are no slaves in "Song of the South". So what you said makes zero sense. The "very things" that put the movie on this list are portrayals of African Americans in the American South, and the idea that these are offensive stereotypes. But again, there are no "slavery scenes" in the film.
Pretty much we’re losing free-speech cause of feelings.
No, we are just realizing what is wrong and what is not, we are trying to change and I think that is good for society.
natasha DaZa daza Zavala You people are cancer.
Made especially for the Professionally Offended.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Yeah. That’s the point. It wouldn’t be for the people who don’t give a shit.
"Bullies may be the villains of some classic kids movies, but why the hell do the parents or teachers never seem to care what's going on?" Seems pretty accurate for 30 years ago.
Seems pretty accurate for todays standards as well.
@@wanderinwolf3804 Dozens of school shootings later and people still pretend that they give a damn and want to do something about it. It's pretty pathetic at this point. Just going around in circles.
Love how they show THE QUIET MAN for violence against women, one of the plot points in the movie is that he won't treat her like that but she insists that he does
That is so true..lol
They're not talking about the actual movie itself just the trope
Not to mention that he wasn't being violent at all. Pushing / dragging a person to a meeting that they need to get to isn't violence. That's like saying holding down a drug addict in withdrawal is "violence against addicts".
These were real movies, Hollywood sucks so bad today, all we have are the old movies. They couldn't make a good movie now if they had too. We let a small group of freaks dictate what we do. We are the morons.
Old school movies: Bullies are a thing and you should stand up for yourself because mommy isn't going to be there your whole life to help you
this was the better way to do it
WestArcher Not really. Nobody stood up to bullies in old movies. It was just a casual thing that you get over it
George in BTTF, Ralph in ACS, Lisa in Weird Science, Gordie in Stand By Me...You don't know film one Oppa
WestArcher Growing up we were expected to handle bullies on our own. I was told to kick him in his nuts and fold him like a lawn chair.
Cole Bloxam exactly, the list is too long to write.
Eerie, great in theory but the real world doesn't work out like that. There will always be that kid that just won't listen, or that one parent who thinks their kid can do no wrong.
To be fair Dr. Strangelove is satire so the US and USSR issues were supposed to be simplified.
So White Chicks was ok and Eddie Murphy dressing up as a white man for an SNL skit was ok then right?
Roger Gilbertson apparently. I definitely didnt mind the white chicks. one of my favorite movies.
Sure it is.. Liberals wont point out if its a minority doing the offence, they only target if the offender is white doing it.. LOL
Triggered little white victim!
Those aren't classified as old movies though
TRIGGERED! 😱
