Live Poll: Most Controversial Film of All Time

Thanks for the tip! :)

Hey, I've noticed a weird thing. I got a downvote and then downvoted myself to confirm it and then upvoted again, but I've noticed I can downvote myself multiple times and then refresh and the number goes up. And I can't take the downvotes off. Is this normal?

Alright thanks! :)

'The Passion of the Crist' from Mel Gibson was also one of the most controversial movies. https://www.imdb.com/de/title/tt0335345/ Christians around the world went nuts when Gibson showed a hardcore-cruzification. Jehowa's witnesses criticized the movie for altering fatcs. They blamed the production company afterwards for selling big nails as fan items and they told that at this time the delinquent wasn't nailed to a cross. They said it was only a pole, the delinquent was bound on with ropes, not a cross. The movie had a wide effect on chritians of several confessions around the world.

Thanks 🙏

Caligula 1979

'Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma' aka 'Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom?' https://www.imdb.com/de/title/tt0073650/ That movie was hard to watch. It surely is most controversial: B.D.S.M Scenes within a Nazi-occupied castle. Coprophilia, things like that. Pasolini was a communist, and he was proking in his movies a lot.

Serbian Film a sort of modern version of it Also, 365 days - but that didn't have many gory scenes like these two

Serbian Film and Salo are both on the list for sure. Two contenders for most controversial.

Yeah, just realized that. Thanks for pointing that out. :)

DandyBuzzard, May I suggest that you edit your list intro to: These movies have divided audiences and even been banned or censored in many countries for their subject matter. The contender for the "most controversial" should be based on graphic, disturbing content, how much it has been banned, if it ever had legal trouble, and most of all, the film's cultural legacy and if its notoriety has continued to the present day. What is the most controversial film in cinema history?

Will do that. Thanks for the pointer.

DandyBuzzard95, the edits have to be made in your IMDb list rather than in this thread. It is the list the one that will become a poll, so every change should be reflected there.

Now that your poll is live, please edit the top post from Poll Suggestion to Live Poll and move the post from Idea to Praise.

Done! TYSM! :)

Englisch is not my mother tongue. Could you please explain what that akronym says? I guess T means Thank, Y means You, but what is S and M?

It means thank you so much.
