86 Politically Incorrect Titled Films
by Remnant_Of_The_Abyss | created - 04 Jun 2011 | updated - 02 Jul 2011 | PublicChronological list of short films and features.
Documentaries and TV movies/episodes omitted (there's too many to list).
This is the first list of it's kind on IMDb. Do we really need another?
While I find the titles distasteful and offensive, I abhor 'Political Correctness' even more. Read about it's origins, and why it is UN-AMERICAN:

SPECIAL NOTE: This list has just 86 titles listed for a reason. Only a few redundant titles have been omitted. This link has a fascinating discussion on why the number 86 is meaningful:

In light of this title, yes, I do believe that the "Washington Redskins" NFL team should change their name. While I am anti-political correctness, I still believe in this modern era we don't need to refer to anyone by their skin color. The American Indians are the last to suffer this humiliation.
If I were to rename the team, I would choose "Washington Tomahawks".
