problematic language, would be deemed racist today and would probably not get made these days. But it is funny as sh*t. Further, I don't think it was hurtful, I don't think it hurt anyone and was not found particularly offensive at the time.

I think times are different and audiences are different so younger people might not think its funny, but I think there is a much larger audience who would enjoy it, white and black.

Another way to put it is I think the movies are a reflection of the times, not the cause of the terrible discourse.


That being said, the "You know why you are gay?" scene from 40 year old virgin makes my skin crawl now. It's terrible and lazy. The worst part being that it's too straight guys doing it and it was written by a straight guy. (But I can't help but think that if it were two gay guys having a similar conversation, it could be pretty funny).
