The trend seems to have happened long ago, in the 80s.
What's most interesting is that despite the deluge of cancellations and heavy (self-)censorship, the 2010s and 20s did not change anything.
- bluefirebrand 2y agoI dunno. There were a lot more R rated blockbuster movies back in the 80s than there are nowadays Yes there are a few exceptions. John Wick. Mad Max Fury Road Those are the exception these days though, I think?

- gedy 2y ago> despite the deluge of cancellations and heavy (self-)censorship That was for (some) sexual and racial issues, not violence though.
- PorterBHall 2y agoBonnie and Clyde (1967), The Wild Bunch (1969), The Godfather (1972). I think that’s when it really changed.
