If I had the time I always wanted to have something like those pop-up videos on vh1 but with movies, they would come up during "trigger" warnings or things that arent allowed nowdays. My guess is there would be a shitload

'The Mask' comes to mind. JK, 'The Truman Show' might work and its kinda subversive anyway.
There's a lot of comedy that totally wouldn't work with the fag rag.
On the drama side, 'Crash' really moved me, when I originally saw it but I think it's not that popular a movie that almost everyone has seen.

The one where the "evil huwhite cop" grinds on some nigger's wife during a traffic stop, and then rescues her from her burning car after she crashes it? I thought the characters were completely opaque in that movie, it was like every single bit of them and their motivation was just painted on. But the "anthology" style had its merits, though this suffered from the same statistical unlikelihoods that plagued "LA Story." There are about 15 million people driving around the area every day, the chances of drama intertwining between unrelated characters is nil. These films need a smaller town for that shit to be possible.

A Godzilla movie would probably look normal if all the japs had masks on.

So now do we get to cancel Hollywood for not being covid-19 compliant? Are they promoting dangerous disinformation by producing movies where you can see the actor's mouths?

It would be meant to show how much of our interpersonal communication gets lost because of masks. It's making people sick in the head, not be able to 'read' the faces of others. It's especially cruel to children who need to see visual cues and facial expressions to learn how to properly function in our society.

The Roman gladiators would often wear helmets that completely obscured the face. This wasn't done so much for protection but as a way to dehumanize the combatants so that they would not hesitate to plunge a sword into someone who may have been a friend back in the barracks.

Any Harry Potter movie! Wake up the NPC's first since they love spreading their beliefs like it's gospel. Or better yet, the avengers! The guy turns into the hulk rips all of his clothes but the mask grows with him. Lmao!
