Sacred Haven of Debauchery

Morning
I watched the first Mummy movie on TV and was shocked. The main characters – exclusively white people – disarm deadly traps set by dark-skinned diggers; dark-skinned townspeople with a blank, glazed expression go to wage jihad against them, and the gentlemen shoot and run them over with cars in droves; an evil, nasty character waves the Star of David in front of the mummy, and she accepts him as her slave, even paying him in gold to betray his colleagues, which he gladly agrees to (even though it's according to the Bible, it's still very bad); the female heroine is kidnapped, locked up, and dragged around like a sack throughout the film, forcibly kissed, and used for their purposes; she constantly cries out to the men, "save me, help me," and in the end, the white men save her, and in the process, save everyone else.
An incredibly offensive film; they wouldn't make something like that today.
I read a similar comment some time ago:
Ah, the late 90s. Where male protagonists were allowed to say cheesy one-liners, female protagonists were allowed to be damsels in distress, and storylines were allowed to be... you know... FUN.
Where do we go?
Where do we end up when we save the world?
