  • Big Trouble in Little China: Redneck trucker kills Chinese immigrants.
  • War Machine: Alcoholic rich white man gives weapons to black man.
  • Risky Business: Privileged rich kid gets everything he wants with no consequences.
  • Star Trek VI: Racist military commander past his prime nearly ruins galactic peace.
  • The Goonies:  Physically abused, retarded man finds love with overweight preteen.
