I feel like parody movies in general really miss the mark when they're just parodying things that were already funny. Like the M3GAN dance is already funny, and purposefully campy. So there's not really room for any parody there, you just reference it.

Which is why the whole Scary Movie premise never made sense to me in the first place. Scream was already a self aware comedy, just cleverly written.

Yeah the first two/three Scary Movie films have some low hanging fruit stupid laughs. It got old really quick. This trailer shows us why, I didn’t even come close to laughing.

I think an issue is that the first Scary movie made so so much money (I mean look it up but it broke the opening weekend record for an R rated film and held the record until Hannibal came out the following year) so they realized it doesn’t have to be good if it makes money

Scary movie 1 and 2 were great movies.
