"Not Another Teen Movie" was another underrated parody movie.

The Wayans family are literal GOATs. Glad their roles in the franchise wasn't understated in this video. The Wayans Bros is one of my favorite sitcoms.

Cindy and Brenda made these movies so good once they weren't in it it was downhill.

Two people. Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer effectively destroyed the parody genre in theatrical movies. Edit: Holy crap! Thanks for my first 1000 likes!

You nailed it. Those two guys just mass producing parody movies did kill the genre.

Scary Movie 3 had one particular scene that still makes me laugh 20 years later. It's the classroom scene, and out of nowhere, while the teacher is talking with the main character, something is thrown from off camera and hits the chalkboard. The teacher suddenly says "Who the F**K threw that?" Gets me every single time.

Scary Movie 3 is legit one of my favourite films ever made, every joke in it is so stupid but it makes me laugh every time

Scary movie 3 is actually so fucking hilarious and underrated, Charlie Sheen & Leslie Nielsen were comedy gold

The “what are you waiting for” scene gets me every damn time

Scary Movie 1 & 2, as crass as they are, actually had _some_ love and care put into it, and Scary Movie 1 effectively succeeded in spoofing a movie that was already a horror movie spoof (Scream). But from Scary Movie 3 onwards (along with any other spoof movie), you can tell that the producers cared a lot more about the juvenile and slapstick humor and pop culture references than actual parodying. And lest we forget, Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer slowly killed the genre with each passing “movie” and it still disappoints me.

The first three movies in the franchise are genuinely hilarious send ups, but everything after that just feels incredibly forced. They really should have quit while they were ahead.

The Wayans made the first two the best parody movies in the genre. 3 gets a pass since it still works but without the Wayans, the films lost their charm.

SpaceBalls was one of the best parody movies ever, because the performances were sincere and the special effects were actually good.

Scary Movie 3 still has probably one of the funniest bits in the entire franchise with two dudes discussing paradoxes and getting progressively more intense lmao

Honest to god, while the Superhero Movie had a low production value, the jokes in that movie have some of the best deliveries of any parody movie

Let me just say, A Haunted House showcased that the Wayans really were the missing piece with the Scary Movie franchise.

Scary Movie 3 gets a pass for blessing the world with the quote “Cindy, the TV’s leaking” EDIT: for the love of god, I said it’s gets a PASS. Not a credit, not a high distinction, a pass, because I remember one fucking quote and I like that quote.

I think you missed the part where the Wayans Brothers were fired by the Weinstein company because they were afraid it was effecting the sales of the Scream Franchise and to take financial control of the Scary Movie Franchise

Scary Movie 1, 2 and Not Another Teen Movie are parody GOLD and hilarious. Scary movie 3 is still really funny and the underrated Superhero Movie with Drake Bell. And honestly, those late 90s to mid 2000s parody, teen, high-school and road trip movies are just hilarious and nostalgic of another time. The New Guy, Bring it On, Undercover Brother, Eurotrip, Malibu's Most Wanted etc etc. I miss it so much 💞

3 is definitely a guilty pleasure for me

“CINDY THE TV’S LEAKING”

Anna Farris was gold in the first two

Scary Movie 3 the scene where Leslie Nielsen as the president thinks that the aliens are attacking absolutely kills me every time. Yeh the film isn't as good as the first two, but it's still nowhere near the depths of some of the other films mentioned. Special honourable mention of Not Another Teen Movie as well, that very effectively parodies the teen movie genre and has a stellar cast.

Scary movie 1, 2, and 3 are comedy gold.

I don't know that I've ever laughed as hard as I did the first time I saw Scary Movie, during the scene with Cindy and the gym teacher. So glad I saw it in the theatre, everyone was dying the whole movie.

Superhero Movie is actually really underrated

I have to admit, Meet the Spartans is a guilty pleasure

I have a soft spot in my heart for this genre of films as I grew up in the early 2000’s. Some of the biggest laughs of my childhood stem from these movies

"Shriek if you know what I did the last Friday the 13th" was also another parody movie on the horror movie genre released in the same year as the first Scary Movie film and easily gets overshadowed and overlooked by it.

I loved the first 3 Scary Movies. Horror movies used to terrify me and funnily enough, Scary Movie 3 actually helped me get over The Ring!

I always felt that Dewey Cox never got enough recognition. I loved John C. Reilly in that parody.

Why didn't you bring up what the Wayans brothers said about them not even owning their idea and the studio cutting them out? The first 2 were funny because the Wayans family knows their stuff and write the first 2

Yes! I’m very glad you covered the scary movie series!

I've been loving the naked gun and police squad clips lately. There's just something different about that style of parody

I always wish Detention had gotten more attention - it’s an amazing movie that manages to parody multiple films and genres, is smart and doesn’t have to explain its jokes and EVERY single joke in it has a pay off and plays into the story. Such a great film.

Scary Movie one and 2 were a big part of my childhood. 3 had its moments but it was all downhill after 2

The 1st Scary Movie is an absolute iconic movie and classic. Culturally it was everywhere. For months and even years after its release, you would hear or see a reference. I mean look at the wassup scene. Everyone around age 30 I know knows about it.

If Malcolm D. Lee could've done a better job directing a Scary Movie in the 2000s Have anyone seen UNDERCOVER BROTHER?

Love your channel man! Love the credit you gave the Wayans!

I really loved this video! Just found this channel! This was a really great observation into these films! I always wondered where things went wrong and why they got so bad!

It went from "funny movies with original jokes based on franchises that matter at the time" to "whats trending? Throw some internet memes on it"

Ironically, series writer Craig Mazin is doing pretty good rn with Chernobyl and The Last of Us.

I’m glad you mentioned Popstar. I’ve always thought it was weird how nobody ever talks about it. I thought it was great. Extremely underrated. Also, Walk Hard is one of the best comedies of all time.

'You can trace them all the way back to the 1900s' So...twenty-four years ago?

SCARY MOVIE 5 should've come earlier It came out at a time where the parody genre had died

ah man,, no mention of Jane Austen's Mafia! my favorite when I was a kid

That's awesome to hear that Mel Brooks is making another movie. In the beginning of the video, when it brought up Mel Brooks, the first thing that came to my mind was "that dude better make at least one more movie before he dies."

I grew up loving Mel Brooks and The Zucker Bro's films. I think one parody film you're missing to connect the generations is Major League. Anyway - yeah Scary Movie holds a special place in my heart because it really was a parody made with love. It got over the top, crass and silly but it never lost sight of what it was doing. You said it best though. Good video!

Scary Movie 3 is so hilarious, the rap battle always gets me "And Martha Steward happens to be my hero"😂😂😂

Superhero Movie is such an underrated gem as a parody film and so much more relevant now at the closing times of the current superhero movie boom

My favorite pary of melbrooks is how quickly they went from one gag to another. A lame gag like "candy gram for mongo" was so short it didn't matter if it didn't land.

Agreed. First and second movie (especially the first one) were great. It was a "made for fans by fans"-type of deal. I love when that happens, because the genuine passion is there. That's why I don't mind smaller budgets, since it tends to come with greater creativity. As you mentioned, Airplane and the Naked Gun movies and also Mel Brooks' movies, are gems. I just feel disappointed in the direction modern parody movies are taking. I'm a former filmstudent, and in its core my teachers were adament in teaching us to value quality over quantity.

Scary Movie (1) was like Weird Al's White and Nerdy to me. I saw it before I saw the movie that it parodied.

Dewey Cox is legendary! One of my favorite films. And yeah the Scary Movie franchise was totally a blast. I wouldn’t mind a parody movie resurgence.

I don’t know many creators whose videos I’d watch with scary movie being the focus. I trust you, though. I watched all the way through, and I like your take aways without the scary. Thank you.

I was rewatching these the past week XD Now this video.

Super Hero Movie is actually pretty solid. It loses some of its momentum towards the end, but it's decent overall

SM 1&2 were the biggest movies for us burnouts when they came out. I feel like 3 and on lost the magic. Don’t be a Menace to South Central is probably the best parody movie ever imo. The fourth wall break always gets me. “She got more kids than Miss Wayans.”

In scary movie 3 when the guys face is blurry in the picture and in real life KILLLS ME EVERY SINGLE TIME

Great video!

Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story is the last truly great parody movie.

Scary movie 1+2 and Not another teen movie were my favorite comedies of my teens

Scary movie 1 is my go to movie whenever i’m bored or can’t choose what to watch.

There was a time around the late 2010s where there seemed to be kind of a boom of soft rebooting horror films by making sequels that ignored previous sequels and continue from the first and I thought that was a good moment for somebody to revive the franchise. I think Jordan Peele would probably be able to successfully do it.

I think the video missed one important thing: KZfaq, TikTok and the rise of online comedy. Now if we want parodies, it’ll usually come about from creators on those channels and more timely since they’re quicker to make

These movies were so funny to me as a kid! My favorite part is still in Scary Movie 3 when the guy cocks his shovel like a gun and a bullet comes out 🤣

The world needs Space Balls 2!!! No idea Mel Brooks was making another film. So excited!

I think Marlon said it best in A Haunted House: “When are they gonna stop making scary movies without the Wayans? They fucking suck!”

I personally think the third scary movie movie was the best

Credit where credit is due.. Walk Hard is legitimately one of the absolute most hilarious movies ever made. They parodied music biopics flawlessly and just in general it's a good movie with an actual plot and incredible characters. Shit even the songs are extremely well written as well as genuinely funny. Personally, I think Walk Hard is easily in the same league as the first Scary Movie and in just my opinion I think Walk Hard is actually the better and funnier movie out the two. I could spend the next 15 minutes recapping all the tropes that they nail perfectly but I'm tired so instead, I think everyone should just take the time to go back and watch Walk Hard again. (I'm willing to admit that the fact I am a big fan of the music/celebrity/historical biopic genre and thus all the jokes skewering that tropes from that genre land really well to me because I am so familiar with them. That may be why I appreciate and love Walk Hard as much as I do. But it is still a comedy masterpiece whether you get all the references or not.)

Except Scary Movie 3 is the best one in the series & it's not even close. The focus on dumb wit rather than shock value just amplifies the humor. SM1 also oddly had nothing to say about scary movies that Scream didn't already say - they could've gone further & made fun of the meta, hyper-aware nature of modern horror, but they just remade scream with some d!ck jokes.

Kung Pow Enter the Fist was a masterful parody of martial arts film and it's criminal that he was never able to make a sequel

Walk Hard was awesome, it and Hot Fuzz are the only parody films I return to over and over again.

Superhero Movie is an underrated masterpiece, pretty much the only parody movie after Scary Movie 2 that was genuinely really good

I honestly have the scary movie series to thank in getting over my childhood fears of the horror genre. I can always find something to laugh at in these movies now and give me a way to enjoy them opposed to being to scared to understand anything.

1: timeless classic 2: really frigging good with some humor you wont get unless you was there that year 3:pretty okay. Worth a rewatch at least a few times with a couple iconic moments Anything after i walked out of the theater

The Scary Movie franchise died when the Weinstein’s decided to fire the Wayans after the success of the first two movies

I'm surprised Will Ferrel wasn't mentioned here. His filmography is practically a case study of the diminishing returns of parody movies. I guess his movies aren't strictly parody, a fair amount of them were just comedy that had elements of parody in them.

The Dewey Cox story and Not Another Teen Movie are legit too

Request: The Inevitable Downfall of the Ice Age Franchise

I just watched the second movie last week with my sister & after all these years, the way we belly laugh never changes. Truly something from our childhood that has not lost its luster for us.

Scary Movie wasnt the same after The Wayne bros left. that was the major difference

You break it down bro that’s why I subscribed

It's so odd that I've made it to the end of the video and not 1 mention of Not Another Teen Movie

1 is probably the best parody film ever made.

Spoof film come back. Please.

Thanks to Scream and I Know What you Did Last Summer - New Nightmare was a bomb inspiring no one and predates Scream - which set off the meta schtick and IKWYDLS was a successful earnest horror film with little meta that got that side of the ball rolling harder.

I don't think I ever saw 1 and I only remember 3. Tried to cram The Ring and War of The Worlds/ Signs into a cohesive overarching story lines with the aliens somehow involved with the girl in the well. I remember a Matrix parody in it. And Leslie Nielsen was in it. That's about it.

Honestly, Scary Movie 3 is my favorite out of all of them by a landslide. I distinctly recall kinda liking the second movie and being utterly underwhelmed by the first one. Guess it's all a matter of personal taste.

Scary Movie was a one hit wonder.

The thing that Naked Gun and Scary Movie and the Mel Brooks movies have in common, is they are all well written, plot driven stories, with organic jokes through out. The common thing with the failed parody movies is they are all a loose collection of jokes that are kind of connected to a theme. The former are classics that are held up as pinnacles of comedic story telling. The latter are forgotten as soon as the theater seats cool

I was wishing there would be a parody film called "Animated Movie." It would have all of the crass humor of the Scary Movies but it would have people dressed up as characters from the Disney Princesses to characters from Toy Story etc. I guess the closest we got to a animated movie parody was "Shrek."

The weird al yankovic biopic parody was one of the best movies I saw of the last decade

The first 4 will and always be the best.

The farting in Blazing Saddles is also a way of breaking down the glamorous, myth of the cowboy.

Even though the Wayans didn't make it, Scary movie 3 was probably the last good one before 4 and the godawful 5. 3 was a proper spoof that the original was. It wasn't excessively making rapid fire references to other movies, but using films like Signs and Ring to connect it's own storyline with it's own slapstick humor, although more streamline than the first two. In terms of the trilogy, it's better than Scary movie 2 even though I like that one as well.

Superhero Movie is pure gold

The first 2 scary movies were the best. Everything else that followed was a cash grab

I literally just went through a Scary Movie Bender yesterday are you stalking me?!?!

Lesley Nielsen as the president in scary movie was fantastic
