All this talk about John Waters films, makes me feel sick....lol
Lots of his films probably wont be able to be made today.
With the exception of Hairspray, which already was remade.

Imagine a movie called "Black Chicks" about 2 white men dressing as black women (lmfao.. in all actuality that would be hilarious)

Remember the uproar when Soul Man came out? Where was the uproar about White Chicks (though I'm a Wayans fan so I had to watch it a few times LOL)

I'm no Ayn Rand freak, but 'fascist' would be a very strange label to slap on the woman. She was a complete libertarian, which is the complete philosophical opposite of fascism. I wish you liberals would be more precise with your vocabulary.

Or what about White Men Can't Jump -- what if somebody made a movie called Black Men Can't Drink Milk or something similar?
