Spoofing SuperBad?

Spoofing SuperBad?

Posted by SexiVixxEN 97 days ago
Why does Hollywood still make spoof movies? And why are people still stupid enough to go see them? Moviehole reports that Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, the guys behind Meet the Spartans and Epic Movie, are now in pre-production on a SuperBad spoof called Goodie Two Shoes. Yes folks, you read correctly, a SuperBad spoof. My first thoughts were: Why? What’s the point? and Please, Why don’t you guys stop making movies and get a job in construction? But maybe not in that order.

Goodie Two Shoes will film in Louisiana from April 28 through June 6. The story follows a “group of friends who go on a life-changing adventure” but like most recent spoof films, the “comedy” won’t be limited to teen sex comedies. The casting call sheet reveals plans to spoof the upcoming Will Smith Superhero comedy Hancock, Sex and the City the movie, and Mike Myers’ The Love Guru. The duo is also on the look out for other look-alikes to play Jessica Simpson, Justin Timberlake, Prince, Flava Flav, Dr Phil, Angelina Jolie, Paris Hilton, and Michael Jackson. Remember back in the day when a spoof movie just stuck to the genre/topic it was spoofing? Someone needs to explain to the spoof genre that it is not, and will never be Saturday Night Live. Better yet, someone needs to take the Spoof film out back and shoot it in the head.

Discuss: Should Hollywood retire the Spoof genre?

Why are people stupid enough to see these dumb films that make fun of the originals. Enough of that! I might be blocked for what I'm going to say, but I'm going to say it anyways, and I don't care what happens afterwards because this will probably be the only time I comment on something like this.
First of all: What is this world coming to? Can't they use money for a better use, like finding a cure for cancer, instead of spending it on making horrible and stupid spoofs that are disgusting, filthy, filled with crude or sexual humor, dumb script, immodest people, and just immature things.
This world would be so much better under a Catholic or a good monarch, and bad films such as this, should not be permitted to be made.
In fact, we should have a big bonfire and chuck all the films with nudity and sexuality into the fire, perhaps except for the ones with brief nudity, Becoming Jane for instance.
Hollywood should retire form the Spoof Genre and the evil filmmaking genre.

Christ yes, please make them stop. I was just one in many of the people naïve enough to see Date Movie in the cinema.
I doubt spoofs of comedies will ever be funny. It just doesn't work. Not that Friedberg or Seltzer make anything work. I do believe these two are the main pioneers of the spoof genre. So if we bump them off, we may experience a decline in the number of idiotic spoofs. It's just an idea.

that doesn't sound very good at all! Yes I think they need to retire these spoof movies, they have been getting steadily worse ever since Date Movie. They're running this genre of movies into the ground and stomping the shit out of it at this point!

Yes,Hollywood should retire the Spoof genre.Obviously The Naked Gun and Airplane were brilliant back in the day and the first Scary Movie was good but the last couple were shit.Personally i like Not Another Teen Movie as well but all this Epic Movie,Date Movie,Meet the Spartans etc is taking it to far.It's a genre thats good in small doses,thats it!
