    You couldn’t make Cool Runnings today because the Jamaican bobsled team has been around for a few decades.

      I think the title that was chosen for the French version of the movie would be problematic too today : Rasta Rocket

      You totally could. It was a five-year-old story when the movie came out. Different decade, even.

      It had been by then too. Also a lot of tropical and sub-tropical climate counties have bobsled teams, it’s not that wild, all the Scandinavian counties play volleyball too.
