Alright Sup Forums here's a challenge for you. The Seltzerburg films are considered some of the worst, most unfunny comedy movies of all time. Can you name one joke in any of them that was done well?
This includes: Date Movie, Disaster Movie, Epic Movie, Meet the Spartans and Vampires Suck. Five movies in total so finding one salvagable joke shouldn't be too hard right?
When Xerxes is a transformer and the plug falls out turning him off? Only thing I remember

i've only watched it in german, the ga jokes like kissing men and highfiving women, the shoulder rub scene, just the complete turning of the edgy source material. i'm a fan of both the comic and the movie
as i said i know it's retardedly stupid "low" humor, but you can't take yourself too serious all the time lest you become a closeminded bore

Im with you here. It was the only good one out of those shitty spoof movies.
As for memorable laughs, first of all i remember the only reason i enjoyed it so much was because it revolved around 300 (a movie i enjoyed) and i was like the only one laughing in the theater.
As for specifics.
The scene with the oracles was funny. Instead of gold its various creams and skincare products as payment. Leonidas 's battle.
"First we're going to take them from the rear. Then we're going to reach around and take them again from the front!"
The dick in ass drawing in the sand.
"Battle formation? It looks like backstage at an elton john concert"
They just basically ripped on the fake abs, homosexual undertones, and ridiculous filmstyle of 300. A lot of the pop culture references are clearly dated now and were still hardly funny for their time. But meet the spartans IMO was the funniest of the bunch.

No one wants to admit it because it makes them look like a pleb but these flicks are fun as fuck, only r*ddit hates them.
Nolan Brown
All of the jokes in them were hilarious. I'd like to direct you over to reddit.

Date Movie and Meet the Spartans for me.
In Date Movie i shit my pants at the scene where the girl gets on the motorcycle and there's a cut to her stunt double as this big ass buff black dude which was just funny as fuck to me especially
Michael Johnson
>le reddit boogeyman typical redditor
Dominic Edwards
Superhero movie
>These blades can cut through diamonds >I'm not wearing any diamonds
It's such a lame joke, but I found it hilarious and still do.
Landon Morgan
The Narnia kid's sex scene with the Mystique parody character in Epic Movie was funny. I was like 13 when I saw it though.
Ian Miller
Epic movie has some good cap material.
Alexander Baker
I think Superhero Movie is the best out of all parodies that came out in the last ten years.
Charles Stewart
this was kinda funny in a ironic way
Bentley Richardson
There will never be a parody movie better than Not Another teen Movie.
Austin Sanchez
>clearly say "in the last ten years" >retarded user says, "Hey hold up man, what about this movie that came out fifteen years ago?"
Alexander Smith
I know it came out in 2001, user, I just wanted to point that out
Blake Thompson
>tfw Not Another Teen Movie was 15 years ago
where did the time go?
Asher Brooks
I can't think of many actually funny 'jokes' that the writers came up with, but Crista Flannigan and Nicole Parker were always pretty good, a lot of their lines were probably ad-libbed
Jace Reyes
That yoda face. Shit those good times when alyson hannigan was 10/10. Until about HIMYM 5-6th season.
Logan Richardson
>She got glasses and a ponytail
Aaron Campbell
>implying the gta vice city scene was bad must feel good being retarded
I always loved Epic movie for its stupidity and laziness. Snake on motherfucking plane. Nacho libre I'm not eating that. Fergalicious dance. That face when taken to nut-cruncher. White castle. Harry potter training. Gets in jail with drunk driver. Jack swallows, gut stabbing and puppet hit. Aslo who is clearly not asian guy fights albino. The click with men running. And some more stupid but enjoyable crap. youtube.com/watch?v=bnBeHtwjSWo
I watched Epic Movie when I was 14 and I remember thinking Jack Swallows was hilarious.
God have mercy on my soul, for I deserve none.
Luis Edwards
I unironically like Scary Movie 3, I think it's really funny It's maybe because I also unironically like The Signs
William Lewis
Asian guy made me fucking kek, other than that meh.
Luis Clark
Scary Movie franchise is made by someone else, Setlzgoyburgstein just aped the name and packaging to make them look similar and make audiences think they were of similar quality
It's actually the only good Scary Movie entry, and is directed/produced by David Zucker who worked on Airplane, Top Secret, The Kentucky Fried Movie and The Naked Gun
actually they co-wrote the first Scary Movie and are credited in all of the sequels as "based on characters created by..."
Robert Gomez
Scary Movie 1 is actually a good comedy though 1>3>2>4>>
Brody Russell
There are certainly funny parts, but I think much of it falls flat. To be honest, it just makes me want to watch Scream instead
>A parody of a satire that is funnier than the movie parodying it irony
Jonathan Turner
Except Scream isn't really funny, it's just a self-aware satire, which isn't the same as parody.
Camden Hughes
I think it's pretty damn funny, maybe not in a laugh-out-loud way but in a can't-stop-smiling kinda way
Owen Murphy
In the Meet the Spartans when the guy get's thrown in the pit he says something like "hit me baby one more time". I found that funny because I remember that song.
Christian Brown
I unironically enjoyed the fart scene in Superhero Movie
I remember going to see Superhero Movie in high school with a few friends and the whole theater was laughing at a lot of the jokes. It's definitely the best one and I'm surprised it didn't shoot off a comedy route for Drake Bell youtube.com/watch?v=gsbaNyLWjH4
