Yep Dfens is now the norm rather than the societal outlier it was at the time

Austin Powers was big on consent… ahead of its time in some ways.Austin Powers might be able to get away with it by being mostly a satire & even playing on how everything is essentially meant to send up the silly nature of older films.
It wouldn't get made today, but it's clearly showing all the racist characters are idiots and how stupid their racism is.My first thought was Blazing Saddles
Watched the Gene Wilder doco last night and it had clips of it and even cut the N stuff out. Personally I think it was never used racially but as an afront to racism as a mirror to it - but I recognise its green lighting wont happen today
Another film that feels that way to me is Falling Down. More & more the pressures experienced by Duvall & Dfens are true today, and we see many people worn down by the world in a similar manner, even snapping, or I guess being into opioids in situations like these.

Not sure what's wrong with this one. Do you mind elaborating?The Hangover Trilogy for sure
I watched the first Ace Ventura recently, nothing stood out as being abhorrent. Jim Carrey just being Jim CarreyAustin Powers series which I thoroughly have enjoyed would be questioned today by some, to me it's still fun and I'd happily lazily watch it, though I recognise it probably wouldn't get made these days.
I barely remember them but I've also been told Ace Ventura.
Also, I reckon some of the early Bond/007 movies would have some female/male cliches that would be frowned on
