I vote Song of the South, because unlike the other two racist films on the list, it really had no discernable cultural impact.

Song of the South is the only one of those films I don't like - because I haven't seen it. It wins.

Sure, Song of the South is really an unnecessary choice. It's allready been killed in real life. Besides, it's the first movie I ever saw, so it means alot to me.

First off that's assuming they are all equal in their racism... I find Birth of a Nation far more offensive than Song of the South or Gone with the Wind. Second, I believe Birth of a Nation is being penalized specifically for its cultural impact. The reason people complain about it isn't merely because it's racist, but because it's a racist film treated as a landmark. And sure, it is a landmark, but in terms of a kill list one would kill it in the hopes of not erasing cinematic achievment but placing it somewhere we can more wholeheartedly endorse.

Even if Hitler had been a good painter, I still wouldn't have bought his paintings.

Heh. Song of the South is one of my earliest film-going memories, too.

No "Song of The South" = No (underrated) "Fletch Lives". It should stay.

I voted "Gone With The Wind". Sick of that tripe.

Gone With The Wind isn't racist.

No Song of the South = No Splash Mountain = No picture with these crazy Mexican kids screaming for dear life in my house. Song of the South MUST exist.

I second that. I did Splash Mountain three times in a row. No Mexican kids, though. That must have been a seasonal promotion.
