Blazing saddles
I thought I told you to wash your hands?
Yes!
tropic thunder!
Airplane
“Hey, I know you! You’re Kareem Abdul Jabar!”
Joey, have you ever seen a grown man naked?
I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.
And
I am serious… and don’t call me Shirley.
White Chicks.
White Chicks 2 is coming apparently https://www.techradar247.com/2023/05/17/white-chicks-2-release-date/
Whaaaat, lmao. I am honestly amazed, thanks for the link.
Both of the Ace Ventura films.
Frankly, they don’t hold up well. 😭
It’s not my favourite now, but there was a time in my youth, Ace Ventura is definitely on this list!
I was more of a Dumb & Dumber guy, but ace is a classic.
“Finkle is Einhorn? EINHORN IS FINKLE!”
What’s the issue with Ace Ventura? I don’t recall any poorly aged jokes or anything like that but it’s been a while since I’ve seen it.
Transphobia was a punchline in basically every 90s comedy.
Hmm. I remember a lot more gay jokes than trans jokes but I’m sure they were there too.
Oh man. Twenty guys puking because the woman is a man… For starters
To be fair, that scene was just as much an attempt to parody the scene from “The Crying Game”, as it was straight up transphobia. But regardless, it doesn’t sit right today.
It makes me feel old calling these older movies but male driven sex comedies like American Pie or Superbad seem to be extinct. The closest that comes out today are gender flip versions like Booksmart. I understand the need for a fresh take and the desire to avoid certain questionable aspects of the genre but it feels like there should still be a place for dude centric raunchy comedies.
Blazing Saddles.
This. While it’s not my favorite movie all time, it’s definitely my favorite one that can never be remade!!
Waterloo (1970). That many extras required the collaboration with the soviet army, as well as bulldozing a big area to film.
We can see the difference very clearly with the new Napoleon trailer, which despite the huge budget looks outright poor in battles.
Team America. While I’m not offended by any of it, something tells me a lot of folks would be (and it wouldn’t even be over the puppet sex).
It’s a fucking masterpiece!
The Jerk
I was born a poor black child 🫥
That movie is actually surprisingly progressive if people got their head of their ass. It’s ok to make fun and laugh if the overarching message is positive. That’s the best kind of comedy
This is all I need!
“When I was a kid, my mom told me THAT was my special purpose”
Terminator 2 and 12 Angry Men
Oh, come on, I’m pretty sure 12 Angry Men could get made again in the right context.
Family Guy did a parody episode of it a while back.
Why could T2 not get made?
Look at all the sequels and tell me if they are even on the same level of quality as T2.
You’re not wrong. T2 would be garbage today with the CGI. Having to use practical effects made it so much better.
idk, making a bad movie is always possible, just as making a good one. I interpreted the OP question as “can’t get made due to cultural taboos” not business reasons.
Kentucky Fried Movie
Blazing Saddles
We need more movies with the soul of Blazing Saddles, though

I love that film. Definitely can’t make that one these days, even if it is satire.
Welcome to the Doll House
I was kinda surprised that it got made at the time…
Kids too
