9 Most Controversial Comedy Movies
1. The Great Dictator (1940)
Charlie Chaplin's most successful film, about a poor Jewish barber who is inadvertently mistaken for a very Hitler-like leader, was one of the first pieces of entertainment to come out against the Nazi regime. It was banned in many parts of Europe (for obvious reasons).
2. To Be or Not To Be' (1942)
Though now regarded as a comedy classic, this film -- about
a group of actors who use their performing skills to evade Nazi troops in
occupied Warsaw
-- was initially not welcomed by the public (supposedly the father of director
Ernst Lubitch walked out of the premiere, due to the film's comedic use of
Nazis).
3. 'Pink Flamingos' (1972)
The breakthrough film of cult filmmaker John Waters was a
midnight hit with young audiences. But the story of "the filthiest person
alive" -- which features the infamous dog poop-eating scene -- was banned
in Australia, Norway and parts of Canada.
The first X-rated animated film ever, about a
hedonistic talking cat in 1960s NYC, suffered public scrutiny and lost
advertisers due to the movie's sexual nature. The comedy went on to become the
most successful independent animated film of all time
4. 'Fritz the Cat' (1972)
5. 'Blazing Saddles' (1974)
Mel Brooks' Western parody struggled throughout production
due to the movie's racial humor, screenwriter Richard Pryor's reputation and a
notorious flatulence scene. Nevertheless, "Saddles" went on to become
one of the first movies to make over $100 million at the box office.
6. 'Monty Python's Life of Brian' (1979)
The religious satire about Brian Cohen, born just next door
to Jesus Christ, was banned in several British communities, Ireland and Norway. The film went on to become
a box office hit and is regarded as one of the greatest comedies ever. To this
day, it still receives protests when religious leaders screen the film for discussion.
7. 'Orgazmo' (1997)
Before they became kings with "The Book of Mormon"
and "South Park," Trey Parker and Matt Stone
made this farce about a sensitive Mormon in the adult film industry. The
movie's jokes were so over-the-top, it received an NC-17 rating, crippling its
box office performance.
8. 'Postal' (2008)
The adaptation of the black comedy-action video game from
infamous German director Uwe Boll was delayed from release, then lost its deal
to open in 1,500 theaters, due to the movie's political humor (in particular,
an opening scene that lampooned 9/11).
9. 'Four Lions' (2010)
9. 'Four Lions' (2010)
The British satire about angry young Muslims who aspire to
become Jihadists -- but go through serious rookie struggles -- was named one of
Time Magazine's best movies of 2010 and earned a BAFTA award for
writer/director Chris Morris.
