BASEketball was pretty un-PC as well.

Remember the address on the sweat shop in Calcutta, India was 711?

>>>Question is: will the official version differ from the, er, eBay version?>>>

Not the ones I have bought (got 2, one for me, one for my boss)

They are identical. But buy the ones from England, so no language issues. They are the same movie.

Braveheart and The Patriot are totally politically correct. The principal purpose of political correctness is to portray all Americans since WWII and all English people, ever, as bad guys. The Patriot, therefore gets a free pass on having American heroes, because it was set prior to WWII and bonus PC points for having English villains. Braveheart is much better by PC standards, because it has English villains and the 'heroes' are neither English nor American.

Any movie that has this line in it CAN NOT by definition be PC:

"Sons of Scotland! I am William Wallace - and I see a whole army of my countrymen here in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight? Aye, fight and you may die. Run and you'll live. At least awhile. And, dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom!"
--Mel Gibson as William Wallace, speaking to the Scots - outnumbered three to one - on the battlefield at Stirling Bridge, A.D. 1297. (Braveheart, 1995)

Woodrow Wilson's favorite flick, "Birth of a Nation."

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner!!

[budgetbabe]

Bird Cage!! Robin Williams doing John Wayne was priceless.

[CollegeRepublican]

Blazing Saddles came to mind when I read the title of this thread, but when you really think about it, it is actually PC. The Black Sheriff is the Hero. All of the whites are drunks, villains, morons, or incestuous (Johnson, Johnson, and Johnson).

[GatorGirl]

Song of the South is a teriffic movie.

Uncle Remus is a wonderful character. He should be admired, not ridiculed.

I purchased the movie overseas and my kids have watched it repeatedly. It hasn't made them little racists, to the contrary they have many friends of all races, colors and creeds.

[ctdonath2]

Title trumps trailing comment.

[Allegra]

you mention parker /stone movies, but don't mention "cannibal.. the musical"?

Haven't seen it. Is it a Parker and Stone movie? When did it come out?

I've been living in the Twilight Zone of the world for a while and am woefully behind on pop culture.

[I still care]

Anything by Monty Python.

We were just watching a skit the other day we had never seen, with an Indian watching a play. My son said, "They would never make that today."

[Holicheese]

King Pin has got to be in the top 10 of all time.

[Egon]

I'm sleep-deprived and I have a cold.

Maybe you have allergies? Perhaps some Allegra would help?

[new cruelty]

LOL. That was a funny scene. I think that was Nathan Lane. Williams' character coached Nathan.

[HIDEK6]

The Capitol Steps spoofed a certain song from the movie just after the Clinton-Monica incident: "I'm unzippin' my doo dah every day/Some young intern could be comin' my way"

I think the Capital Steps are tiresome and snotty.

"Question is: will the official version differ from the, er, eBay version?"


You know, I didn't think of that. Don't know why. Maybe I'll have to check out eBay after all... lol

[diamond6]

"Where the white women at".

[mrsmith]

The film from Harlan Ellison's novella "A boy and his dog".

[Allegra]

I LOVED that movie. I haven't seen it in years...I'm going to have to get that DVD and take a little trip down Memory Lane...LOL

[Central Scrutiniser]

And the world's first "Scratch and Sniff" movie, Polyester
