Definitely would have to cut parts and make serious edits if they made a remake of the original instead of the upcoming sequel, but Beetlejuice.
The slit wrist joke would definitely be cut. The ghost advisor woman who smokes through her neck would most likely be on the chopping block due to the decline of smoking. The scene where Beetlejuice is stuck on the diorama and goes to the hooker/strip club(?) would probably be out. And the scene that would without a doubt be completely removed or reworked entirely no questions asked in a modern remake would be the scene with the centuries old creep Beetlejuice trying to marry an underage teenager.

There's a lot of really racist and rapey stuff out there that didn't seem like a big deal back in the day. From the 80's especially.
A lot of Mel Brooks films (yeah, it's humor, but would it fly today?)
Nerds.
The Meaning of Life
Porky's
Fast Times
maybe even Sixteen Candles?
Sean Connery's Bond movies and character were racist, homophobic, misogynistic as hell...
