Jesus, you people need to lighten way the f@ck up


What is wrong with you idiots? This is not a documentary. It's called a comedy. And in comedy there are jokes. And amazingly enough, jokes can be racist, homophobic, misogynistic, and not-PC. So lighten up and get a clue.




I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

I wasn't surprised one bit with people on here having a problem with this movie.This is my first time watching this and half way through I knew people would have a problem with it.They say fag**t,reta** and everytime the Asian boy shows up they play that sound.All of that was funny including the part when they start playing The Godfather theme while the Italian fiancé was talking.This is a COMEDY in the 1980's.Why would they hold back?I'm more surprised that you guys are shocked that sensitive people have a problem with this COMEDY.They do that to every COMEDY that isn't afraid to make fun of things that they consider to be off limits.Check some of the other COMEDY boards and you will see it isn't just this movie.It's ridiculous.

This film is totally UN-PC, and I love it!!! A masterpiece like this film would never get made today. Too many people get offended when the wind blows.

reply

Amen, jgroub! People are WAY too uptight in today's PC Mad society. Most of them wouldn't know a joke if it bit them on the ass.

If a joke bit them on the ass, they would press sexual harassment or rape charges against it.

reply

Exactly, it would violate their "safe space."

When did people get so soft?

reply

Agreed. But you have to remember that this is the same generation that needs safe spaces if they hear something that offends them.

Sometimes it's just an act for attention.
