Did we forget a film that stoked the flames of controversy? Let us know in the comments below. The most paused movie moments ever! -> kzfaq.info/sun/PLmZTDWJGfRq1G-fbmmp4emgtPz-UsgXvy

Cuties was so controversial it couldn't make the list?

From A Serbian Film to Green Lantern 😳

That's hilarious that Willem DaFoe was in "Antichrist". He played Jesus in "Last Temptation of Christ"

The joker thing feels like a repeat of video game being “violent and affecting the mind of people in a negative way”

2000: Battle Royale 2001: Pearl Harbor 2002: Irreversible 2003: The Brown Bunny 2004: The Passion of the Christ 2005: Hostel 2006: Shortbus 2007: Hounddog 2008: Martyrs 2009: AntiChrist 2010: A Serbian Film 2011: Green Lantern 2012: Zero Dark Thirty 2013: Nymphomaniac 2014: The Interview 2015: Fifty Shades of Grey 2016: Ghostbusters 2017: Star Wars Episode VIII - The Last Jedi 2018: Green Book 2019: Joker 2020: Borat Subsequent MovieFilm 2021: Music 2022: Blonde

2000 movie is the wrong choice. Should be American Psycho. The controversy surrounding this film was crazy even before it was made. The very announcement about the making of this film caused crazy reactions, anyone who was old enough at that time remembers it perfectly. Feminists and the media furiously protested and organized actions against the film, death threats were sent to Christian Bale, and people in the movie industry openly told him that playing the role would be career suicide. Sponsors like Rolex didn't want to be associated with the movie in a loud way, so the original line 'don't touch the Rolex' was changed into 'don't touch the watch'. It was a total frenzy, after the release too. Director had to cut some sex scenes out, and only after this edit, the movie was released in theatres! Yet thank God American Psycho was made, as it not only stood the test of time better than almost any other controversial movie, it became iconic and cult classic for a reason - the movie just perfectly portrays and mocks sick modern society, especially society of 2022, and that's even more remarkable if you think about it. Timeless masterpiece and def was ahead of its time!

In 2013 we were truly blessed to have "Blue Is The Warmest Colour" and "Nymphomaniac" release in the same year.

I've got to say, Joker is one of the most amazing films I've ever seen, and I've been a movie buff for forty-five years. As Roger Ebert would say, that movie takes you out of your seat and into a world of its own. You can't stop watching it, and the climax of that movie is just shocking. Kudos to Todd Phillips, Robert Dr Niro and especially Joaquin Phoenix, who really gave that performance his all and made Arthur Fleck come to life.

Wasn't Fifty Shades of Grey also controversial for its depiction of BDSM and how inaccurate it was?

Why call a bad movie controversial? If there is bad acting, bad story, bad ratings, it's a bad film. Also, casting women in lead roles is not controversial. But taking a dead/dying franchise and throttling it for a few more dollars is degrading for viewers and offensive to fans.

How did Cuties dodge this list?

I'm proud to say that I got to see The Interview at a movie theater as it was originally intended.

Did you really just go from A Serbian Film to Green Lantern?

I actually loved the fact that Joker resembled The King of Comedy, I had just watched it less than a year before joker came out so it was kind of fresh in my mind and I thought it was pretty brilliant to have DeNiro playing the interviewer. Lars von Trier is my favorite filmmaker. I was hoping you'd put The House That Jack Built for 2018 because a bunch of pretentious asses walked out of the screening at Cannes, but I get why you chose the Green Book. Good list! I haven't seen irreversible yet but it's on my list. Martyrs and A Serbian Film were much less hard to stomach than I thought they would be, I personally thought that the metaphorical value outweighed the graphic violence. I also felt the same way about the passion of the Christ, I am not a Christian but I do think that Jesus is a beautiful historical figure and thought that the way they were able to humanize Jesus was incredible.

Ghostbusters was underwhelming for sure (though it still had some good moments) but the biggest issue most people had w/ it was because they said it wouldn't be a "reboot" to draw in original fans and would acknowledge the previous movies, but after the trailers came out it was very clear that wasn't the intent and it was indeed a reboot.

Rian Johnson should give up the idea of making Star Wars movies and focus on original projects instead

I remember hearing about movies like The Interview, Ghostbusters 2016, and Joker quite a bit, especially The Interview and Joker. I remember seeing it on the news for both of those movies, especially Joker because the families of the victims of the Dark Knight Rises early screening shooting were afraid that if Joker was released in theaters, something similar to that was going to happen. As for The Interview, I remember hearing that theaters refused to show it. I also remember the movie The Hunt I think it's called was supposed to be released in 2019, but due to the two shootings happening just days if not a week apart, the studio decided to delay its release until 2020, just before the lockdown happened.

Battle Royale is one of my favorite movies! Given the subject matter, I think it was pulled off quite well.

In my lifetime I saw “a Serbian Film” once and will never see it again at all. Every other money is second to that

Nice. Got these holiday movies on queue.

2004 and 2014 were pretty easy. Never forget how dangerous they claimed them to be upon release

I actually don't mind Green Lantern. Turn it on and keep it in the background while I work seems to make it tolerable.

I still didn't understand why Viggo Mortensen's character in the Green Book movie was eating all the time

Heath Ledger "Joker" is a Masterpiece,but this Joachim Phoenix "Joker" is the most Scary of them all. Stuff of Nightmares.

Battle Royal is one of tarentino's favourite film

I was able to see "The Interview" in the the theaters. It was the only movie I've watched that actually had police officers at the theater.

2000: Requiem for a Dream 2006: United 96 2010: Kick-Ass

Nothing about Vanilla Sky or V for Vendetta - though the timing of their opening dates were a little controversial

I was working at the second-hand shop when I discovered the DVD movie called Hostel. The age rating of the movie is 20 years in Norway (my home country)🇳🇴.

I'm surprised that The Nutcracker in 3D, aka Nazi Nutcracker, wasn't even mentioned as an honorable mention for 2010.

I went to Catholic school, and in my sophomore year we watched Passion for my New Testament class. Of course because it was R-rated, we had to have our parents sign a permission slip.

William Dafoe is in so many wild films, I love him

Antichrist and Nymphomaniac are masterpieces. Lars von Trier knows how to make great movies.

You forgot cuties

2009 should be Melancholie der Engel. Martyrs is one of the most intense film experiences I've ever had, quite the endurance test of extreme cinema.

What about The Last Airbender?

great video

Can someone reply to me the entries of this list? I couldn't be bothered to watch the rest of the video.

Also 2008 could've been Tropic Thunder. I guess that's where the term ableism derived from.

I still stand firm in my belief that Ghostbusters received far more backlash than it deserved; although I do feel that Chris Hemsworth’s character was completely unnecessary.

You forgot The Room..🤣🤣🤣

The uncensored version of "Team America: World Police" had THE most outrageous sex scene ever!

Top 10 marvel characters that deserve a mcu special

I watched Blond on Netflix, and I’ve gotta say, worst two hours I’ve spent watching a movie in my life

It's fine to not like a film or find it controversial, but if you bully actors or actresses of social media with racist/sexist abuse i.e Leslie Jones or Kelly Marie Tran, then you're just the biggest adult virgin ever.

Ouch!

Raise your hand if you didn’t know there was a second Borat film. 🙋🏾‍♂️

Kudos to WatchMojo for acknowledging the existence of the most f&$ked up movie ever made in A Serbian Film.

The 23 most controversial movies each year would be 529 movies just sayin

Should Cuties be the pick for 2021, since it gained a lot of controversy and some people wanted to alert Chris Hansen?

Passion of the christ literally sent the message of "as long as its about what happened to Jesus, the violence is ok." Literally exploiting their own martyr. And all of these kids who were MADE to watch it, including myself, were traumatized by the same parents who whine about violence in video games that is nowhere near as graphic. One thing that led to me burning the bridge between myself and christianity

you fogot the other film brimstone

Basically all the Lars Von Trier movies

0:55 this is before squid game.

Well now I have some new movies to watch

I will always stand behind 2016 Ghostbusters. I thought it was still funny and entertaining.

I want to know what controversy is 🙊

I expect following movies containing Zombies, Ghosts, vampires contain Real zombies, Ghosts and vampires...

I'm glad that none of those films are my favourites.

I highly doubt Rian Johnson will ever be brought back for another Star Wars project ever!!

What about "mother"

2022 Borat will always remain undefeated.

Green Lantern? Really?

Top 20 best and worst years (so far)

Producers were so afraid Joker would inspire violence. Instead, it inspired the rise of self-identified "sigma" males; the same people who ruined Fight Club, American Psycho, and meatride Homelander from The Boys for the wrong reasons.

I’ve seen Battle Royale, Pearl Harbor though not sure what would be controversial about it, not saying it’s a good film. Zero Dark Thirty I remember not liking but I think it’s still well directed and acted. I’ve seen Ghostbusters 2016 as well which I know about the criticism made by people from trailers and such don’t think it’s a great film but I found stuff regarding this a bit odd. Seen Star Wars Episode 7 The Last Jedi again like with previously mentioned film I don’t think either are controversial just divisive, I don’t think it’s a good film. Lastly seen Green Book and Joker which I think Joker is well-made it’s just my mood wasn’t the greatest when I saw it.

I am so sick of people pushing the narrative that Pearl Harbor is a bad movie it’s so annoying

Hostel 2 was a little better then 1 and 3

Did you know the writer of 50 SHADES OF GREY (who also wrote the VENOM movies) is set to direct the 3rd VENOM movie?

I really hate when people complain about actors not being what they portray because so what that girl wasn’t artistic it’s called acting terminator was it an actual robot? Jacqueline Phoenix isn’t mentally ill it’s called acting for a reason realize how hard it would get to have actual people on screen.

How can you folks at WatchMojo ignore American Psycho? The movie is controversial because the protagonist is a Wall Street yuppie in 1980’s New York City, hiding his true nature as a misogynistic serial killer suffering from NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder). The fact that you guys left out such a controversial classic is truly a sin. Shame on you again, WatchMojo.

"A serbian film is not exactly a great date movie". Understatement of the century. Lol Martyrs was a great film and super disturbing(french version only)

The most fucked up thing about hostel is its real

The only offensive thing about "Music" is that the movie sucks.

As a huge fan of the original ghostbusters, I can agree that the fan base was insanely divided on that one. But as far as controversial movies go, Sausage Party released to every major theater that year. That’s a tough call to make.

Can you do top 10 episodes of the Netflix show Voltron Legendary Defender?

Star Wars The Last Jedi isn't even that bad. It's actually really good. Star Wars fan's really need to move on, it's just a film.

I'ts really funny to me how the first movies on the list are like these really dark fucked up movies but. then starting at the interveiw the list just goes into these really main stream movies that people didn't like because they were bad or like scary, I feal like we've all become sensitve babys as a sosiety.

Slow Downfall of actors 2000-2022 Caviezel, Sorbo....

"Blonde" is awful!

Can you do comic book origin of Marvel's West Coast Avengers?

Green Lantern? Controversial? Come on. Bad does not mean controversial.

I don’t think The Fifty Shades of Grey franchise was a hit. Each sequel got worse and worse reviews.

Ghostbusters was so good, I hate the original but the female version is amazing and it'll always will be also most all of these are about sex and murder geez if murder is then every horror movie would be on here also Joker is so bad. 2014 should be anything cause that movie was controversial because they casted Matt Bomer as the trans character! He did good though and I'm glad he got casted because I feel like if they casted a real trans woman then it wouldn't be as good

Did you know that the 2016 Ghostbusters had an extended edition that was taken out of theaters, as it was incredibly sexist to men, even more than the entire movie itself? The only way to watch the extended version is to download it online. I highly recommend avoiding this.

A Serbian Film is beyond disgusting. No details, just disgusting.

I see Green Lantern as bad. NOT controversial. Was nothing else released that year more shocking? I thought The Interview was funny. Ghostbusters 2016 wasn't bad because it had women, it was bad because it was unfunny crap the last jedi was such a giant middle finger to the fans Green Book was a great movie. there's nothing controversial about it Joker was a great film In Music IT'S CALLED ACTING! GET OVER YOURSELVES

Blonde was one of the worse, if not the worse movie experience I’ve ever had. Wish I never watched it. Such a waste of talent.

Now this looks like on top of me, So, everybody, just follow me, Cause we need a little controversy, Cause I feel so empty without me. Eminem, Without Me

No lo puedo creer que no se te olvide el

I read the books of 50 shades of Grey, and watched the movies, and the movies sucked

With the way the World is now,I doubt that A Serbian Film would be anything today... As good a movie as it was... It's probbaly not offensive to today's "society'.. #Smh

"Green Lantern"??? Do you even know the definition of "controversy"???

Lgck ng

No cuties?

The explanations of the plot were horrible and useless

Did you know ELI ROTH directed the upcoming BORDERLANDS movie? AVI ARAD ruined everything again

There's no debate about episode 8 being a masterpiece...wtf are you even talking about? Make some more shit up.

Surprised Joostice league isn't here
