So 45 from the entire list. 17 numbered ones. I The Passion of the Christ really the most controversial film of all time? I'll have to read the web site and see the justifications (if they have them) but there are some really odd choices on there.

Also, they changed the voices of all the "Arabian" extras in Aladdin to speak with anglo accents when they released it with the emasculated lyrics.

Two things:

First I don't think you can deny that a film like Passion of the Christ caused a lot of controversy, whether you or I personally felt the controversy for that or any other movie on the list is immaterial.

Also it does make we wonder, what would you list as your top two or three selections for this list?
