    Because these days people freak out more about those details. It was a very different time back then.

      I don’t think that’s true at all. People say “tropic thunder couldn’t be made today” but nobody says tropic thunder is racist or homophobic or anything like that.

      It’s not like the looney tunes cartoons from way back when where blatant racist shit was just the norm, TT specifically pokes fun at the racist stuff.

      Put it this way, nobody has “cancelled” Tropic thunder, it’s still just as good to watch today as it was then.

      Nothing has changed to put the film in a different light.
