[QUOTE="Simeon_Strangelight, post: 1099405, member: 6783"] Fight Club and even the Matrix are not movies that would be made today. Fight Club is way too masculine and anti-establishment at the same time. They don't want to get close there and give men any ideas. The same is true with The Matrix. They dunked the movie into the stupid-sauce in parts 2 and 3, but could not completely delete the message. The progressive critics back then described the movie as macho-fascist - keep in mind that this was in still saner times. Now they would call it full on NAZI, decry the lack of diversity, the lack of strong female role models, the lack of Muslims, lack of fat actors, lack of biracial relationships, lack of gays and trans-people etc. They would have to change the entire script to make it half-way SJW-conform.
