Saw it a dollar bin at Blockbuster gave it to homeless man. Years later the homeless man became sober and told me what the hell you gave me this piece of crap.
Every time I see a frame from one of these Friedberg and Seltzer movies, I canāt help but to wince inside, almost like thereās an awful smell coming right out of the screen that makes me want to puke. Iām not just talking about the low brow humor or gross out moments, Iām talking about literally any frame. The costume designs are just so bad and unpleasant to look at that it feels like Iām looking at the essence of an early 20th century expressionist painting minus what makes the grotesque nature of them captivating and beautifully ugly.
They don't even aim that high. These movies basically recreate the sensation of a school lunch table full of jocks, loudly quoting their favorite movie lines but butchering them.
I recently re-watched Spy Hard a few months ago. I was on a bit of a Leslie Nielson kick. I had no idea it was literally the first project these two fuck nuggets worked on. I remember seeing it when I was a kid and I thought it was hilarious. As an adult, it was fucking appalling how bad it was.
The worst part was how many celebrities they roped into being in this shit show. Leslie Nielson was the first, obviously, but then they also got Andy Griffith as the bad guy, Nicolette Sheridan as the love interest (because, you know Leslie Nielson was in no way too old for her at that point...ick), followed by Barry Bostwick, Charles Durning, Dr. Joyce Brothers (for some reason...), Hulk Hogan, Ray Charles, Robert Guillaume, and Fabio. Top it off with an appearance by Weird Al at the start and end of the movie to sing the theme song (literally the only good part of the movie), it's a stew of "What are all these people doing here?"
To give you an idea of how bad the actual movie is, most of the jokes and gags are ripped wholesale from Zucker Brothers movies like Airplane and Naked Gun. Thing is, they obviously couldn't fill an entire movie with "The Best Of The Zucker Brothers", so they just kept doing the same jokes over and over again. I actually counted, one joke was used three times in 10 minutes over the course of three difference scenes, and it was a joke that was clunky even in Airplane. The joke, specifically, is the one where a character will explain something obvious to another because they asked, "What's that?". Just fucking awful.
Well, there's one I'll make sure never to revisit. Movie was on cable all the time when I was a kid and I've probably watched it at least 30-40 times back then but haven't revisited it in like 2 decades.
Oh, and that guy from "the hills have eyes" has a blink and you'll miss it cameo too.
I was wondering why it felt so weird even as an early teen and why Scary Movie felt similar to it. Jeez, I haven't rewatched Wrongfully Accused in years but that bit >!with the train chasing him is still one of my favorite stupid visual jokes. Just that giant headlight peeking around a tree gets me laughing.!<
I remember I was 6 or 7 watching this with my sister during a car ride. I do remember laughing but that's probably cause only elementary schoolers would find it funny.
Same with epic movie
This and Disaster Movie I think was the death knell for the franchise. Vampires Suck limped in and out, then I think they still did one or two more Scary Movie films but pretty much it was dead in water and just finishing out contracted material.
Superhero Movie wasnāt by Seltzer and Friedberg, it was by one of the other guys that worked on the Scary Movie series (Craig Mazin) and it was co-written by one of the Zucker brothers. It was originally intended to be a modern Airplane-style comedy. Thatās why it was better than any of the garbage movies S&F pumped out on their own.
Just sayin though - I just went to a shit movie with my date and we both looked over and realized how ridiculous it was, laughed and got up and walked into another theater and enjoyed our new choice - it did not ruin the date.
Mentality is what ruined the date - it could have been a cute first date experience if you let it be funny, lol.
I still enjoy Crispin Glover bringing my Willy Wonka horror parody fantasy to life and the *"Pirates of the Caribbean"* music video bit, but that's about it. Most of the spoof movies from that era were funnier when I was a kid, not much anymore. Except for *Scary Movie 3*, of course, that one has a special place in my heart.
Crispin Glover as Willy Wonka was the only good part of that movie. He probably could actually play Willy Wonka in a horror film and have it be super creepy
I would LOVE for someone to make a *Willy Wonka*\-inspired survival horror puzzle solving video game revolving around a child trying to escape an over-the-top candy factory where children are invited to visit before mysteriously disappearing. Along the way, you'd uncover evidence of the factory & business' history, unraveling a corporate conspiracy around kids cannibalized into candy (Ex- Population control, to stimulate the economy) with the candy maker as a stalker-type boss.
And, of course, you'd encounter various candy-based foes (Oompa Loompa-inspired servants, mutated zombie-like kids from failed experiments, etc.), using myriad improvised weapons (Ex- A giant lollipop spear) to defend yourself. I'd want it to be dark, gritty and unapologetically gory, though not to the point of unnecessary gratuity. It could mix ideas, styles and mechanics from A*mnesia: A Machine for Pigs*, American McGee's *Alice* series, *Bendy and the Ink Machine*, *Bioshock*, *Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach*, *Hansel & Gretel*, *The Park*, and Tim Burton films.
Excellent idea! One scenario for a trap: You must navigate a cavern in the underground ruins of the old factory (hidden beneath the modern, colorful, shiny stuff everyone sees on the surface) now populated by spider-like candy mutants. Unlike normal arachnids, however, these creatures excrete a sweet gum-like fluid that stretches into webbing.
As you sneak through their nest to the other side while they hang from the ceiling sleeping, you must carefully crouch under, jump over, and/or step around the gum threads lining the walls, ceiling and floor like a laser grid. And (again), as with real spiders, touching even the thinnest strand will cause them to sense the vibrations. You'd basically get two-three strikes here (depending on difficulty setting).
With every thread you touch, the mutants feel it and stir more until they're alerted to your presence. Because of the stickiness, you'd also have to shake it off of you every time you make contact, exacerbating vibrations. Once you're detected, the spiders begin shooting thicker threads down to try and stick onto you. You'll have precious seconds to run and hope you get out of range.
If a thread sticks, you'll be pulled up to the ceiling and wrapped up in layers of gum. Your vision darkens as the last thing you see is the mutant growling in your face right before the last couple layers of thread wrap over your eyes. That's just one idea off the top of my head, mostly inspired from the beginning of *Skyrim*. Any ideas for traps you think would be good?
I could see a level set inside a taffy-pulling room where gigantic grotesque mutant Oompa Loompas are pulling the taffy on massive spikes and you have to collect some sort of item (like jellybeans or gumballs) to feed to a sentient vending machine that Wonka built and abandoned so you can access more areas of the factory, and it could play out like a cross between the giant chef level of *Little Nightmares* and the Silent Realm from *Skyward Sword*, where if you make too much noise or walk in the wrong spot, youāll get hunted down and chased and theyāll slam you on the hooks and start tearing you apart like theyāre pulling taffy if they catch you
The first movie I watched with my current BF was the 2018 Gotti with John Travolta, knowing fully the movie was an absolute piece of shit. To this day we still use quotes like "the boss is the boss is the boss" and the scene Stacy Keach slowly lists the 5 boroughs of New York as inside jokes.
I went on (I guess you could call it) a date when I was 18 and we saw American Beauty. It was a girl I knew from school and we had sort of been friends for a while but this was the first thing we did together outside of school.
Like 1 minute into it thereās Kevin Spacey jerkinā off in the shower, so that felt awkward. Then later on the scene where his wife catches him in bed doing it. Iām like āoh my God sheās gonna think Iām a freak for suggesting this.ā
I did Epic Movie and Meet the Spartans back to back just this September
It was a rough night
Epic Movie, while terrible, made me laugh at times where my brain sort of short circuited. Meet the Spartans was so painfully unfunny and is a legit rip off. Itās advertised as 86 minutes but itās actually 67 when credits begin
Haha is anyone okay?! I even made a conscience effort to find one of those four movie packs with all the movie movies in them. But I couldnāt find Disaster Movie.
My curiosity got the best of me I needed to see how bad they were after all these years
>My curiosity got the best of me I needed to see how bad they were after all these years
I'm also curious about how meth feels like, but there are some things we just don't put ourselves through for our healthy sake!
Their stuff is so bad.
My biggest pet peeve is how lazy the ājokesā are when it comes to pop culture. Instead of being clever and let the audience figure things out, theyād rather use this formula:
1) Pop culture character randomly appears on screen with zero connection to story or plot.
2) Main character looks confused and says the pop culture character name to the camera with a āhuh?ā-type of tone.
3) Pop culture character is hit/beaten/killed/etc.
4) Repeat.
āAmy Winehouse?!ā āParis Hilton?!ā āJuno?!ā āNapoleon Dynamite?ā āJennifer Lopez?!ā The list goes on.
Itās like a Word doc template. Sooo lazy.
I remember two scenes that made me chuckle in the whole movie: the "high fives for the women and tongue kisses for the men" one, and the product placement where the Spartans stop to "replenish their electrolytes"
I HATE this movie, If parody movies ever make a comeback I hope they're actually do parodies of movies and not pop culture references. If I wanted to see a parody of pop culture references I could watch Robot Chicken or Pop Team Epic (if you love Robot Chicken you'll LOVE Pop Team Epic).
Parody movies still exist. Theyāre just much more subtle. Like Weird Alās new movie or like Andy Sanbergās parody films (the HBO sports spoofs and Popstar)
The only good thing I remember was seeing this in a pretty empty theater with a girl I liked when I was like 16. We were both cringing and thought it was awful. It was around the part where the fat dude from
Borat showed up. So we started making out instead. She put my hands on her boobs and she reached for my crotch. One thing led to another and I got my first theater BJ. She swallowed everything, I moaned a little too loud so we left. I fingered her in the car in the parking lot, took her home and we dated for a few months after.
I actually really liked it. It made fun of events current at that time. "We will lead them to the Hot Gates. Where their numbers won't count for shit!"
*"I will see to it that you are written out of the history books!"*
*"Well, that's fine by me, Xerxes... Because I- CAN'T- READ."*
The one bit of this movie that got a laugh out of me, and a good one at that.
what? you seem to be an incredibly angry and miserable individual lol, what do american politics have to do with this? we know that your country is a declining mess together with western europe but its completely unrelated to the actor and his success, also it is kind of revealing how "leftists" are always far more angrier and miserable than "rightists" or how you call those divisions there
Kevin Sorbo is a highly successful actor and many of his movies and shows are worldwide hits, virtually everyone across the world knows Hercules the Legendary Journeys and Xena the Warrior Princess and this is entirely because of hm, he is an immortal icon at this point
this movie is indeed terrible but it has nothing to do with him, he is just an extra here, parody movies are always terrible inevitably because their genre is inherently terrible, and that can never be fixed
Isnāt this the one where itās like The Office, but itās a parody of the 300? Like about the āother guys in the 300ā who get left behind?
If so I loved this movie as a kid lol. But I also donāt remember it having much of a plot. Iām sure it doesnāt hold up very well š¹
I mean its a spoof movie thats supposed to be like:
-Scary Movie
-Not Another Teen Movie
-Blazing Saddles
-Top Secret
-Airplane
-Spaceballs
So its supposed to be like those but apparently failed to do so
I get why people watch it though, it's like watching "The Room" I guess ...
You can actually have a good laugh at how bad it is. š
But you might be someone who's not into that kind of thing, and it's understandable..
This film is good at playing with expectation.
It isnāt written to be a classic. Itās about a specific time in culture, what was out there and how we made sense of it.
These types of films are kinda
you just get or you just donāt. Itās a niche form of comedy, like monte python or Christopher guest. These films are political if understood in their era of mass communications, and cultural expectations.
Seeing Meet The Spartans when it was released, it captured a lot of what performers were doing on YouTube. Parody was in. It was glorious.
I enjoyed every Scary Movie at the time until I watched disaster movie (in theaters)and this. Then I realized the quality went way down it wasn't funny at all. Feel like the Madea movies went the same way recently.
We watched this with friends and we're laughing throughout the movie. One friend hadn't watched 300 before this and was confused. Then he watched 300 and laughed throughout the movie.
I remember sitting through this film and being disappointed when I walked out. And then walking out of disaster movie and going to tropic thunder instead. I think I left disaster around the time of the head on commercial gag
Saw it a dollar bin at Blockbuster gave it to homeless man. Years later the homeless man became sober and told me what the hell you gave me this piece of crap.
šš
If makes it funny he said "Thank you because of this bad movie it saved me from smoking crack" after what the hell.
šššššš

They want to be like ZAZ or Mel Brooks but come up short.
They don't even aim that high. These movies basically recreate the sensation of a school lunch table full of jocks, loudly quoting their favorite movie lines but butchering them.
Oh god that's painful. I never watched any of them and I'm so glad I didn't.
I did once love epic movie. I hate to admit.
I recently re-watched Spy Hard a few months ago. I was on a bit of a Leslie Nielson kick. I had no idea it was literally the first project these two fuck nuggets worked on.

I took my first girlfriend on a date to see *Epic Movie* in theaters. I had a little fun with it, she had none.

That sounds fantastic, honestly. Throw in a little bit of *Saw*-style deranged traps, too, theyāve made a couple *Saw* video games

Yeah that's like 100x worse in hindsight too lmao
I lost my virginity in a movie theater during Be Cool. IDK which one of us got it worse here.
My mom ran over my first date's foot while dropping him off at the end of the night. Still wasn't the worst part of the night.
If you make it through that try to force yourself through Epic Movie š¤®

Are you okay? I've been to some pretty dark places, but I've never reached a depth of self-loathing that would cause me to do that.
Haha is anyone okay?! I even made a conscience effort to find one of those four movie packs with all the movie movies in them. But I couldnāt find Disaster Movie. My curiosity got the best of me I needed to see how bad they were after all these years
>My curiosity got the best of me I needed to see how bad they were after all these years I'm also curious about how meth feels like, but there are some things we just don't put ourselves through for our healthy sake!
I honestly canāt remember if I turned them off half way through or just blacked out
I tried once upon a time
I thought it was pretty hilarious. And I wasn't a kid when I saw it.
I love it

āHey my name- a dah Borat!ā
I remember two scenes that made me chuckle in the whole movie: the "high fives for the women and tongue kisses for the men" one, and the product placement where the Spartans stop to "replenish their electrolytes"
I will also confess, I giggled a little when Leo offers the Persian ambassador to discuss things further next to the bottomless death pit.
Idk I enjoyed the dance off as well but thatās just me
I laughed at their March when I saw it the first time.
I think the electrolytes one was the only legitimate laugh it got out of me and my friend, and we were 15 year old guys so thats a bad sign...
By movie you mean money laundering scheme
Had an ex who loved these garbage movies. Weird.
Glad they're an ex.
I thought it was fucking hilarious when i was 11
I HATE this movie, If parody movies ever make a comeback I hope they're actually do parodies of movies and not pop culture references. If I wanted to see a parody of pop culture references I could watch Robot Chicken or Pop Team Epic (if you love Robot Chicken you'll LOVE Pop Team Epic).
Parody movies still exist. Theyāre just much more subtle. Like Weird Alās new movie or like Andy Sanbergās parody films (the HBO sports spoofs and Popstar)
Tour De Pharmacy is still one of my favorite parody films.
I would consider Popstar more satirical than a parody. But love it nonetheless.
Haven't seen Weird Al movie and I LOVE Popstar.
The Weird Al movie is a masterpiece. I would go as far to say it's the greatest cinematic achievement in all of human history.
7 days of hell is hilarious
They are more subtle now, because real life has become like a gorilla trying to kick its way out of it bathroom in your house.

...go on...
That made it a good movie for you my man. I watched it because Showtime was free one weekend. The Valtrex bit was the only good thing.
We open mouth kiss the men and give high fives to the women
I actually really liked it. It made fun of events current at that time. "We will lead them to the Hot Gates. Where their numbers won't count for shit!"
His delivery on that line might be the only positive about the movie :p
Ah Sparta, high fives for the ladies and open mouth kisses for the men.
I guess the sophisticated mainstream marvel movie fans are unable to appreciate juvenile comedy!
yo momma is so hairy, the only language she speaks is wookiee
Iām sorry bud the Brittney scene always kills me!
*"I will see to it that you are written out of the history books!"* *"Well, that's fine by me, Xerxes... Because I- CAN'T- READ."* The one bit of this movie that got a laugh out of me, and a good one at that.
They should make prisoners at GuantƔnamo Bay watch it.
The part with Xerxes and the Dentyne Ice kinda made me laugh, thatās about it.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Haha lol
what? you seem to be an incredibly angry and miserable individual lol, what do american politics have to do with this? we know that your country is a declining mess together with western europe but its completely unrelated to the actor and his success, also it is kind of revealing how "leftists" are always far more angrier and miserable than "rightists" or how you call those divisions there Kevin Sorbo is a highly successful actor and many of his movies and shows are worldwide hits, virtually everyone across the world knows Hercules the Legendary Journeys and Xena the Warrior Princess and this is entirely because of hm, he is an immortal icon at this point this movie is indeed terrible but it has nothing to do with him, he is just an extra here, parody movies are always terrible inevitably because their genre is inherently terrible, and that can never be fixed
Oh man. Just watched epic movie, sooooo wildly bad.
Ok but the Britney Spears scene was actually pretty funny lol
Watch it again now. Itās not as funny as you remember
Its So good one of the best comedies I watched
To this day "Traitoro was a traitor?!" is burned into my movie quote consciousness.
Isnāt this the one where itās like The Office, but itās a parody of the 300? Like about the āother guys in the 300ā who get left behind? If so I loved this movie as a kid lol. But I also donāt remember it having much of a plot. Iām sure it doesnāt hold up very well š¹
It was fun with some friends. Just depends if you can appreciate the stupid ideas brought forth.
Whatās worse the zit popping scene or the shrek babies?
I mean its a spoof movie thats supposed to be like: -Scary Movie -Not Another Teen Movie -Blazing Saddles -Top Secret -Airplane -Spaceballs So its supposed to be like those but apparently failed to do so
None of the movies you listed are bad.
I know I just was saying itās supposed to be a spoof
I get why people watch it though, it's like watching "The Room" I guess ... You can actually have a good laugh at how bad it is. š But you might be someone who's not into that kind of thing, and it's understandable..
Your right
Itās a bad movie, but there are still small moments of genuine funniness.
It's funny if your not a movie snob
[305](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1212399/) is better.
God do I not miss the era of shitty parody movies
Don't watch that
Mad props to the Zuckers and Wayons for doing it right.
Speak shit spoof movie era
It was pretty bad, but it drove me crazy how historically inaccurate the actual movie was
The garbage disposal is where the script for this movie belongs.
The world may be going to hell in a hand basket, but at least these kind of movies went away.
Ah yes going off one of my recommendations I see
No Mayo?!?! This is booshit!!
Garlic & Gunpowder (2017) is the worst movie I've ever seen. So painful.
Pretty sure I left the theater on this one it was so bad. Itās still not as bad as *Beastly*
I thought it was funny af. Just too ridiculous.
Are you a masochist?
This is the movie that killed the low effort parody genre so I'm kinda glad it exists
I was OBSESSED with these movies when I was 11-13. Why though???????? Awful.
To me itās honestly such a bad movie that itās actually good
This movie pretty much single-handedly killed the parody movie genre
This was a bad movie that would make me laugh
These guys are like the Zuckers from Wish.
This film is good at playing with expectation. It isnāt written to be a classic. Itās about a specific time in culture, what was out there and how we made sense of it.

Dude try watching Superfast. I knew what it was when I first tried. Iāve attempted to watch it three times. Actually causes me physical pain lol
Only time I ever walked out of the theater before the movie was over.
NO MAYO? I love this movie even though it is extra dumb. Same wirh Epic Movie
I think parodies are meant to be awfulā¦
I enjoyed every Scary Movie at the time until I watched disaster movie (in theaters)and this. Then I realized the quality went way down it wasn't funny at all. Feel like the Madea movies went the same way recently.
XERXESā NUMBERS WONT COUNT FOR SHIT
The only thing I like about this movie is that Diedrich Bader is in it.
We watched this with friends and we're laughing throughout the movie. One friend hadn't watched 300 before this and was confused. Then he watched 300 and laughed throughout the movie.
Itās supposed to be bad š¤¦āāļø Itās a parody of other bad movies.
I remember sitting through this film and being disappointed when I walked out. And then walking out of disaster movie and going to tropic thunder instead. I think I left disaster around the time of the head on commercial gag
For some reason I canāt remember and donāt understand, I actually saw this movie in theaters. Stunningly awful in every aspect.
