Basebf555 posted:So now they just make generic parody movies where they just throw in whatever the gently caress they feel like parodying with no rhyme or reason to it? How long has this been going on? At least the Scary Movie series sticks to one genre. How is the Hunger Games even remotely connected to Avengers? As I understand it these days they pretty much just mass produce and write them like sketch shows then tape them together.

In simplest terms possible, can someone explain how the rights to parodies work? Like, do they have to pay anyone to feature Iron Man or Katniss (or whatever lame parody names they give them) in the movie?

There are some rights holders who probably could win against these types of movies, but I guess it's not really worth it.

SRM posted:Because "I'm Batman" *cow falls on guy in Batman costume* is a real comment on the character. Yeah, they literally steal a joke from loving Earthworm Jim for Disaster Movie. But do you know why that joke worked in Earthworm Jim and not Disaster Movie? In Jim the cow get's launched earlier in the episode by some random happenstance, so it actually has a setup. You spend the episode forgetting about the cow, and when the other hoof drops, it's funny cause you remember "Oh, yeah, that cow got launched earlier, I guess it had to come down sometime!" instead of DM's method of "Oh, a cow. What?!"

You know, the words "From that guys that (brought you/directed/wrote/shat out)" should be viewed in the same way a red text title on a poster is: a sign that the movie is going to be the shittiest piece of poo poo that was ever poo poo out onto a screen.

My sister coined the title "The Glutton Games", and excuse me but that's a much better parody title than this lazy starving bullshit. Think of all the fat jokes you could jam into it!

Well I now want to see Blackfish, Scenic Route, and Absence without knowing anything else about them so those posters were at least effective to me. That Family poster is dumb though.

"AB|SENCE" separating out the "AB" like that while having a big glowing line pointing to her stomach makes it seem like they're trying to do some sort of abdominal pun. They aren't though, it's just a poor design. Crinkled paper background too!

I thought Blackfish was a misdirection like the Antichrist posters or something, but no, it is actually a movie - a documentary no less - about a killer killer whale.
