Joey, have you ever seen a grown man naked?

[-] owatnext@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

And

I am serious... and don't call me Shirley.

It's not my favourite now, but there was a time in my youth, Ace Ventura is definitely on this list!

[-] beefbaby182@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I was more of a Dumb & Dumber guy, but ace is a classic.

What's the issue with Ace Ventura? I don't recall any poorly aged jokes or anything like that but it's been a while since I've seen it.

Transphobia was a punchline in basically every 90s comedy.

Oh man. Twenty guys puking because the woman is a man.... For starters

[-] kryptonicus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

To be fair, that scene was just as much an attempt to parody the scene from "The Crying Game", as it was straight up transphobia. But regardless, it doesn't sit right today.

Both of the Ace Ventura films.

Parody movies like scary movie or not another teen movie I really miss.

A over the top parody of the superhero genre would be great right now or a new star wars/star trek/sci-fi parody.

[-] Fennario@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

It makes me feel old calling these older movies but male driven sex comedies like American Pie or Superbad seem to be extinct. The closest that comes out today are gender flip versions like Booksmart. I understand the need for a fresh take and the desire to avoid certain questionable aspects of the genre but it feels like there should still be a place for dude centric raunchy comedies.

Waterloo (1970). That many extras required the collaboration with the soviet army, as well as bulldozing a big area to film.

We can see the difference very clearly with the new Napoleon trailer, which despite the huge budget looks outright poor in battles.

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 7 points 1 year ago

Most of the Connery bond movies.

[-] delicious_justice@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Team America. While I’m not offended by any of it, something tells me a lot of folks would be (and it wouldn’t even be over the puppet sex).

It’s a fucking masterpiece!

I was born a poor black child 🫥

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

That movie is actually surprisingly progressive if people got their head of their ass. It's ok to make fun and laugh if the overarching message is positive. That's the best kind of comedy

not a fav but, "meet the feebles"

[-] beefbaby182@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

You just blew my mind. I have seen that one more than a few times, but haven't thought about it in years.

Wobert was so adorable in that.

Blazing Saddles

We need more movies with the soul of Blazing Saddles, though

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

I was kinda surprised that it got made at the time..

Kids too

[-] Lauchs@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

The Young Girls of Rochefort. At least one lead is dead and Catherine Deneuve is almost 80.

Terminator 2 and 12 Angry Men

[-] beefbaby182@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Oh, come on, I'm pretty sure 12 Angry Men could get made again in the right context.

Family Guy did a parody episode of it a while back.

[-] GrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Why could T2 not get made?

I'd say any of the Pauly Shore movies.

The Major and The Minor

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The first one that comes to mind is Revenge of the Nerds. (minus the rape scene)

The Super with Joe pesci
