When a movie tries to be serious, and is so dull of plot holes and mistakes that detract from the enjoyment, they're un-enjoyable. I admit to laughing at the scary movies after the wayans left, and watching them every time they were on TV. Also add Date Movie in.

@FunkyJ: I got the Kentucky Fried Movie on DVD, and watched it w/ my ex and her dorm mates, and they barely laughed once. I was laughing though.

Git Em SteveDave seeks Lego build buddy. How about you?

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> @Punty: Since that Voltron break dancing skit on Robot Chicken.

It's really a shame, cause Mazin seems to know a lot about film and loves the right types of films. He just doesn't make them.

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> I laughed too, but then again I'm stupid tired and I probably would have chuckled at an America's Funniest Home Video joke from Bob Saget. This looks awful. I saw Scary Movie 1 and 2, and it just got more dumber and I even feel more stupider for done havin' watched that thur trailers. Look at meh, I can't even type grammatical-like no mo'

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> This looks surprisingly not-awful. I'll give it a chance, if only because I hope that Hollywood hasn't completely killed this genre to death.

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> @Klebert: NcSchu's already mentioned Airplane (aka Flying High) and Flying High 2 was pretty funny.

Kentucky Fried Movie and BasKetball are also classics, although Neilsen doesn't have a major role in those two...

FunkyJ

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> @Klebert: Ever heard of Airplane!?

NcSchu

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> Were Leslie Neilsen and David Zucker ever funny?

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> OK. I laughed a couple of times. But Drake Bell's career is over.

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> @Punty: The break dancing was lame, but I laughed at the cat. =X

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> In Arizona, Leslie Nielsen does commercials for a local credit union. Believe me, this is a step up.

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> Count me in for the 'laughed despite knowing its going to be awful' crowd. The 'stop the bus' gag and the 'old lady in the woodchipper' gag, dammit, in a trailer, that's funny!

Love that the most expensive effects in the trailer are the title cards. If that's the theatrical trailer, they spent as much on the transition out of the Dimension Films logo as they spent on music clearance (and that breakdancing joke really needed "Rockit" or "Funkytown", not that needle-drop knockoff.)

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> this hurts my brain.

mitchel_stevens

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> Why does every single one of these lame spoof movies need to include break dancing sequence? Since when is break dancing funny?

Punty

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> @tetracycloide: Awe come on. Naked Gun?! "Heroin Frank!" "That's a pretty tall order there Nordbert, you might have to give me some time."

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> Awful.
But, did I hear a Wilhelm Scream in the first 10 seconds of that?

gods-n-clods

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> I have to hope that it is PG friendly. My boys love Drake Bell.

latoberg

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> i think the more poiniant question is how does leslie nielson keep getting work given that he's never actually been funny.

tetracycloide

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> Dammit. As awful as that looks I did laugh a couple of times. At least it looks coherent and they don't blatently throw in pop culture references like that Meet The Spartans noise.

Garrison Dean, King Awesome

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> Watching other people being hurt makes me laugh. Probably not a good sign.

Jeff-Minor

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> Oy.

RRich

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> Why do they keep making these type of films? Seriously, how big is the audience that they can justify making them over and over again.

Metropolis

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> I don't know. I can never get enough "old lady in the wood chipper" gags.

Ed Grabianowski

]]> <![CDATA[Wedgies Are The New Superpower]]> It's weird, or all the entertaining and delightful screenwriter bloggers, the only ones who are good at what they do are Jane Espenson and John August.

At least all the ones I know of.
