Movies that were censored for being un PC today...

The most well known one is ET, in the original the FBI agents are armed with hand guns as ET and Elliot take off. In later versions they airbrush the guns out to make them look like radios. We wouldn't want people to think that the FBI were prepared to shoot an alien and a kid right?

Most classic or even 80's and 90's films would be non PC in some way.

I guess what I notice a lot with modern films is to get around censorship or PC they have non white or non male characters being violent/sexist/racist etc that somehow makes it all ok.

It is funny. They had them drawn as well which is fair enough as they really don't have any idea of the intent or capability of ET. I don't think it would have gone down too well if they fired especially as Elliot was on the bike if I remember correctly. Proper LEO's wouldn't fire in that situation as it is too risky for the civilian. 

They did have to have something in their hands as you said it was a road block. That said did they really think that was going to stop an alien? Just a movie I know. 

I'm not sure how the original Ghostbusters film would go now either. Venkmann is a bit of a predator if we see him through PC glasses, actually even back then we knew what he was lol. He also abuses his authority by torturing that volunteer at the start while allowing the blonde woman to think she is psychic. 

Blazing Saddles would have to be chopped to pieces with all the "N" words dropped. As a kid though I know this was shown on TV without any issues. 

Airplane! Or Flying High! As it was called here in Australia would be in trouble. There are so many off colour jokes including a fairly lengthy one about homosexuality including hints at child abuse. Jokes about drug abuse, sexism, I could go on. It would make SJW's break down in tears. 

Here is another one I just read about Aladdin - 

In Urban Cowboy there's a scene where, in order to get revenge on his wife, Travolta picks up a woman in a bar. They dance and are into each other. He flippantly says "when are you gonna take me home and rape me?" Most of the time it's altered to say "make me", which is the same thing. The altered line doesn't sound realistic, but I guess it makes rape sound nicer.

The scene in SUPERMAN the Movie where the girl goes inside to tell her mother she saw a flying man and the mother is heard to slap her.

The nonsense with PC is that it may hide truths.
The military would definitely have guns in dealing with an alien and children. Hiding that doesn't make it less likely, it just means the movie is dishonest or unrealistic.


There's a 1979 film ASHANTI which was probably considered progressive for the time, but it shows a black muslim guy taking a black boy around a truck to molest him.
That was not a Hollywood film though. It's unlikely a big studio would ok it.

Even ZULU would be considered unPC now-at the time, showing crippled soldiers killing Zulus was progressive--the heroes were the sick and injured and rebellious--but from today it looks like colonial butchery of the native populations.
Made worse by the PC ending of the Zulus "saluting fellow braves" which is not what happened in reality.



Harvey Weinstein was guilty of more than trading roles for sex. The actresses were repulsed by him-this is why he was attacking them in hotel rooms. He was acting like a Muslim sultan and protected by his colleagues and media. For the most part it would seem he only targeted "infidels." He didn't touch anyone he considered of his kin.
Staggering hypocrisy given that Hollywood is always preaching about women's rights and how tribalism is bad--yet Hollywood is the opposite--it sees women as whores and is governed by tribal nepotism.

Along the same lines, while the movie has remained intact, the original poster for Jaws has been sanitized through the years. Originally, Chrissy's nipples were fairly visible but since the mere thought of nipples (much less the horror of actually seeing one) would destroy Western Civilization as we know it, the poster has been airbrushed repeatedly in the last forty years.
