One of my all-time favorites.  :cheers:

You could never, EVER make a film like that today.
I think back then people had a much broader sense of humor than they do today.

Everyone today is soooooooo worried about offending someone that things that were considered to be extremely funny back in the day would be labeled as hate speech today.  :yes:

Unless you are at "The Grammys" then you can slap people and Bitch about how you think the Black girl was better than the White Girl. and she shoulda won cause she is your Girl and I jus wanna have Sex with the white girl but she ain't that good.

Another classic for sure that would NEVER fly today.

I can't imagine how many takes the Python crew needed for Michael Palin  to say 'My fwend Biggus Dickus' that many times in an Elmer Fudd voice without everyone completely cracking up laughing.

I still chuckle when I even think about hearing him say that line... :yes:

One of the biggest things at that time that made it into the film was the fart scene around the campfire.
The language in that film wasn't really frowned upon that much,but farts were. lol Ahh the 70's.

Also, remember All in the Family where Archie would flush the toilet? Some people had to clutch their pearls when they heard that on tv.
