The funny thing is that apparently the actors had fun filming the movie, and the audio commentary is just a bunch of actors reminiscing and having fun. At least they seemed to enjoy themselves.
Apparently Carmen Electra and Tony Cox were paid the lowest SAG payment because they did not care about the money, but just wanted to hang out with Friedberg and Seltzer since they apparently were nice guys and gracious hosts, but terrible writers and directors.
@@AmishParadise27if that’s true, I guess then even a literal disaster movie can have at least SOME good parts! In all honesty, I think what was meant to happen was a Newgrounds/RUclips style parody of pop culture movies and media that was made just for the sake of having fun and making people laugh, regardless of any plot, message, commentary, etc. kinda like a collection of sketches but with a vague framework of a typical “disaster movie” only it was made like an actual disaster or something. Unfortunately it seems it’s hopefully positive on set environment didn’t really translate well to anything even 3/4 decent on screen! That all being said, I’m probably giving this thing too much credit. But in all honesty, I do hope the crew did have a good time!
It's such a weird juxtaposition in Hollywood, sometimes the worst of the worst movies people actually were having a good time on, while some of the best like Apocalypse Now were pretty miserable.
Well of course they had fun. They were doing single takes, laughing at inside jokes and probably getting high. I'd gladly get paid to do that. It's not like they had actual careers in this, so why not?
I would say that's impressive but lesise Nelson and roboet stack both admited they never fully understood that kind of humor.( Which probably explains that look he gives when Caminos in movie basketball.
@@travisdelafuente1150 I’m not talking about movies though. I’m talking about PoP Cutlure in general. And 2007 to 2013 was a VERY Cringy era for PoP Culture. My Space, Twilight, Emo, Crocks, Chipmunk remixes, Facebook. It was an absolutely embarrassing era for PoP Culture
The craziest part about this is I remember the advertising for this movie. I remember that they advertised it as if they were taking on Hollywood. The trailer even at one point said "this year's hottest movies... Are going down". They advertised this as if it was going to be a surgical critique of overproduced trophy films and then all it did was that. I was about 13 years old in 2008 and I remember getting about 4 minutes into this movie and going "This is really dumb". And then I went and watched something else. They couldn't even retain the attention of an ADHD-riddled 13-year-old. That is exactly how shit this movie is

I did watch this movie to the end, but only because my Asperger's syndrome makes me terrible at interrupting what I'm doing before it's finished out of my own volition.
According to the Wayans Brothers, two of the actual writers of Scary movie: Setlzer and Freeberg didn't contribute jack shit to their movies and were only credited as 'two of the six writers' because at the time Scary Movie was being made they were making their own worse slasher parody called Scream If you Know What I Did Last Halloween before their script was bought by the Weinstein Company. Setlzer and Freeberg would then throw a fit claiming Wayans Brothers ripped them off so the Writers Guild forced them to include their names in Scary Movie's credits.
@@JYoungbloodVO I don't think so. Shriek was made before Scary Movie (as you may probably notice by how grainy and old the film looks, even in an HD source), but I think they heard Dimension was already working in a Scream parody, so instead of a theatrical release the movie ended up in USA Network and directly on VHS and DVD to avoid being accused of plagiarism. It has nothing to do with Friedberg and Seltzer's writing style - the movie was called "I Know What You Screamed Last Semester" when Lionsgate bought the script - because it was more in the style of Zucker brothers' productions and had more PG-13 jokes (although being rated R)
@@phantomzone2725 Yeah, that tracks. Admittedly, I don't really know much about Shriek, it just aired on Chiller real late and I caught it when I was extremely tired. All I remember from it is that the Killer starts off with a hockey mask, is given a hot iron to the face, and the mask melts into the Ghostface mask XD. I'll have to see if that and IKWYSLS are available anywhere
Shriek came out in October of 2000 while Scary Movie was Summer 2000. I read the script of Last Halloween and minus some similar jokes to Scary Movie (I believe all three scripts are coincidences) it's more Shriek plot wise. I'm doing a Scary movie retrospective in October to set the record straight.
I met Matt lanter (the voice of anakin) in real life, I asked him what it was like to film this movie. He said the movie is really bad but he did have fun filming it, makes sense because who wouldn’t have fun filming a bad film like this. He also said Kim kardashian was very nice And Tony cox was cool (but didn’t talk to him in a while)
Yeah, apparently many of the cast members had fun filming this movie, since, according to Media Mementos, the chemistry between the cast and crew was important for the jokes to land. It was all in vain, tho.
The key to a good parody is that it be able to stand on its own even if you don't get all the jokes. Look at stuff like Austin Powers, Spaceballs, or The Naked Gun. Even if you don't know what they're referencing, they still strive to be funny within the context of the setting itself, and still tell a coherent story that can stand on its own even if the referenced material didn't exist. With movies like this however, there's nothing there but the references, and without them there'd be nothing connecting what little story there is together at all.

Hell, look at Airplane. The movie is near beat for beat the movie Zero Hour just with jokes added in. It’s literally parodying a cheap 1950’s disaster movie nobody cares about, let alone seen, but it’s still one of the greatest comedies ever made
I have seen, maybe, 2 James Bond films in my life... And that was AFTER have seen the Austin Powers trilogy several times. That's why I love "Tucker and Dale vs. Evil", which parodies the "Evil Hillbillies" and "the cabin in the woods" tropes on the horror films. But still makes the film its own film.
What about Galaxy Quest? Even people like me who haven’t seen Star Trek can find something to laugh about in that film. That’s another example of what a parody movie should be.
You know how bad this film is? Back when the RUclips channel Cinematic Excrement was covering every movie that has won the Razzie for Worst Picture, he eventually covered the 2008 winner, The Love Guru, and when he brought up if any of the other films that got nominated were worse, he started with Disaster Movie and immediately stopped there because he declared it WORSE than The Love Guru, that's how bad it is
It's actually been well-documented that Friedberg and Seltzer literally just based the contemporary film jokes and references off their respective trailers alone.
They never even bothered to watch the actual movies before satirising them! They’re like if Trey Parker & Matt Stone NEVER did any research on anything while making “South Park”.
Sadly i think this movie ruined what any chance Matt had at being a super star in hollywood 😭 atleast he was somewhat redeemed when he played anakin in clone wars, ironically also released in 2008.
Years ago an old roommate brought home one of these movies. I was frowning the whole time, and when he busted up laughing, I lost a lot of respect for him that day
I saw it in the theater with my friends they were all laughing I was bored to tears the movie was so stupid and unfunny and I laugh at almost anything to this day I still feel my IQ went down significantly after watching this
This movie's script literally has Tourette's syndrome - it just shouts out random pop cultural references without any story or characters tying them together. Even Family Guy isn't as random as this.
"There's nothing that AI can take away from us that we aren't already gladly sacrificing ourselves" has got to be the hardest line I've ever heard in my life and should be the lesson the corporate megacomputer tattoos into our grandchildrens brains.
@@johndutkiewicz9401 Those plagiarism algorithms Silicon Valley are calliing "AI" usually only output something to the quality of this movie. They don't have a proper mind to understand what they're seeing, so they just cobble together a bunch of stuff and spit out something that clearly has no humanity or passion behind it. But this movie is so soulless that it's hard to hate on AI when we humans are capable of the same garbage.
There’s an episode of the show Metalocalypse where they go to a comedy club and one of the comedians is literally just saying “Hey remember Decepticons? Remember Smurfs? Remember Masters of the Universe?” That’s pretty much what spoof movies became after the early 2000s

I heard from a good source who was indirectly working on one of these Movie-movies, that the writer's would literally watch trailers for whatever movies were coming up and put them in the script. That's why all those things were referenced. They NEVER saw them before writing them into the script.
The movies weren't even out yet during the productions of these parodies. They had to make these as fast as possible so the IPs would still be relevant by the time they release.
@@troin3925 Then how did they have the exact designs of costumes and characters if the trailers weren't even out? Do you think studios just runaround sharing that information??
The thing about ''Meet the spartans'' is that I watched the bloopers after the movie and they were genuinely funny. The movie was awful and the jokes almost never worked, but the bloopers were actually hilarious. They should have just released them as an actual movie.
You know what's funnier than that Dr. Phil joke? The fact Dr. Phil was already in Scar Movie 4 and said "Hell No, I'm Not Having My Name Associated With One Of These DAMN Movies Again!"
So this movie parodies Jumper, a movie that starred Hayden Christenson who also played Anakin Skywalker, with Matt Lanter would go on to voice Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars the Clone Wars. The only slightly clever thing in this movie was a complete accident!

These movies tried so hard to make every character Cindy from scary movie. But they forgot that Anna Farris at least tried to act, you genuinely believed her character Cindy was a dumb ass
iirc in Epic Movie they wrote one of the characters SPECIFICALLY for Anna Faris, but I think she refused the offer because they called Jayma Mays to imitate her traits
12:40-13:36 The funny thing is Friedberg and Seltzer got the basic idea to satirize these movies from watching the trailers as half weren’t released by the time they started shooting. And it shows. Good god it shows.
Yup, that's it. They clearly have no idea what they're actually parodying and will just shoehorn anything in that might be popular and relevant at that time, no matter how long it will be remembered or whether it will be popular in the first place. This also clearly shows when they reference things that might have become popular, but ended up becoming flops, like Nacho Libre in Epic Movie.
This was one of the reasons parody films died after 2000s. They did try again in 2013 (or 2015, can't remember) with Scary Movie 5, which didn't help really. Also, I can't believe you guys never covered one of these movies, but I can understand why.
A film which will win thirteen Academy Awards an be single-handedly responsible for the creation of the category "Best Screenplay by a Non Human Writer," which of course causes extreme controversy when the criteria for "Non Human" is leaked on-line. A new AI written Bladerunner film will be produced which will be surprisingly good until it's revealed to not have actually been AI written, but instead adapted from Philip K Dick's Ubik with Deckard being a stand-in for Runciter.
@@ChannelAwesome please review airplane, one of the great spoof films! Also maybe Jaws before summer is over both great films(and maybe for Jaws maybe you could do a charity involving sharks because we’ve learned a lot since that film came out about these animals)
At least Scary Movie 3 gave us "Brenda's dead," as well as that reoccurring gag of Anthony Anderson and Kevin Hart arguing over schemantics, like "waking up dead" or "mouse versus rat."
[Insert Reference] walks into frame. "[Insert Reference]!" [Insert reference] does something gross or gets kicked in the balls. That's every joke in this movie.
The sad part is Superhero Movie was actually good. But there was so much trash in the mix that nobody gave it a chance. It parodies the first Toby Maguire Spiderman movie. It has Christopher McDonald as the villain and Leslie Nielsen as the uncle Ben. There were some weak jokes but a lot of gold too.
Speaking of Disaster Movies, that's a genre that Critic never touches. He covered Twister and that's it. Would love a review of Volcano, Dante's Peak, Armageddon, The Day After Tomorrow etc
I can only assume but I think it's because he wouldn't have anything new to add to the conversation even in joke form, any problems he had with Twister are most likely the exact problems he would have with every other disaster movie, the only thing different would probably be the love interest trope as I don't think they use the "broken up, get back together by the end" plotline in every movie
I really want him to review “Titanic” which unlike many other disaster movies that were literally disasters at the box office, was actually the 1st movie in Hollywood history to gross $1 BILLION at the box office! 😊
Funny thing about the writers of the movie, Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer is that they didn't write any thing for Scary Movie. they wrote a separate parody for Scream that was brought, only to be shelved.
I love he didn't even called him Po, but Kung Fu Panda (as if nobody would recognize the monstruous stuntman in suit). It's like people calling Remy as Ratatouille
@@phantomzone2725 yup, but considering how Doug points out they almost certainly didn’t watch 90% of the movies they referenced, they probably didn’t even know his name was Po to begin with. But I think it’s funnier to imagine it as him referring to him by his movie’s name 😂
The saddest part of this movie is seeing legacy Mad TV actors Ike Barinholtz, Nicole Parker, and Crista Flanagan embarrass themselves here with such subpar material. Yeah, they mocked celebrities on that show, but the writing was much better and they did more original sketches too.
When the crackhead princess said “I have such a terrible headache,” I literally screamed “NOOOOO!” at the top of my lungs, because I knew what was coming.
I love how Chaplin looks so intently at Rob at the end. 😂 Yes a cat doing basic cat stuff was the biggest thing of substance in this episode, definitely more valuable than anything in the movie.
Matt Lanter also voiced Anakin Skywalker in the only animated theatrical Star Wars film the same year as this movie. I can only imagine Matt feeling lucky as The Clone Wars series became George Lucas' biggest band aid for the prequel trilogy.
I thought I’d never see the day Nostalgia Critic would actually do a proper review of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer’s masterpiece of barrel scraping art. And yet here we are! This video was totally worth it.
"Before we loaded up to go, I drink, I beat myself silly, I touch substances that I would never even imagine doing, before I ever again just prepare for this movie and it didn't work out..." - Korey Coleman
Another Fun Fact: Many of the films spoofed in this movie had not yet been released when the script was written. Aaron Seltzer and Jason Friedberg got the basic idea for the spoofs by watching their trailers.
They literally just reference anything that is or might be popular to be hip and relevant, not because they have a funny joke to make about it. This was also rather obvious in Epic Move when they parodied Nacho Libre, which became a box office bomb.
Considering that a Michael Jackson-lookalike appears in this movie, what's pretty harsh and eventually tasteless is that this movie was released on the King of Pop's final birthday when he was alive.
I want Critic to review all the woke MCU movies in the same vein how he approach Batman and Robin. "Black girl magic" is on par with "Bat Credit Card."
You guys are getting it wrong, it's not a movie *about* disasters, the movie *is* the disaster. It's the funniest joke they ever did and it went over nearly everyone's heads lol
I remember watching this when I was little, with my mom and I think friend, and right after the chipmunk scene, we all agreed in unison to stop watching it. I even had nightmares from it, too
Seems like Scary Movie's success was mostly due to the well written jokes. This is evident in that Scary Movie 3 & 4 have a notable decline in quality, despite retaining some of the original cast.
@@user-mq4xp1gq3q Just having good comedic actors does not make a good comedy. Just look at what became of Leslie Nielsen after Airplane and Naked Gun - he starred in dozens of similar spoof films that weren't nearly as good, since their creators obviously thought just because you have Leslie Nielsen in it it will be a great spoof film.
@@user-mq4xp1gq3qI haven’t seen 4 in a while, but 3 still “holds up” surprisingly well inasmuch as it a tells a cohesive horror-parody story within its vignettes.

I love your newer videos, even your older ones. They inspired me to make something of my own, and inspired me to do make my own form of humor. Hope to tune in to the next nostalgia critic video from here on out and have a delight watching them
What's kind of interesting about the Superbad parody is that the actor playing McLovin was used again after this. He was the McLovin parody in "The 41 Year Old Virgin Who Knocked Up Sarah Marshall and Felt Superbad About It."
I freaking love how much effort you all put in to not only reviews but your sponsor promos as well. I skip over anyone else's, but yours is always so goddamn entertaining 😂😂😂
Another Fun Fact: The film was nominated for 6 Golden Raspberry Awards, including a Worst Supporting Actress nomination for Kim Kardashian as Lisa. Writing on her blog, she admitted that she wasn't at all offended by the nomination but actually considered it an honor to even be nominated for the award in the first place.
Friedberg & Seltzer didn't work on Scary Movie They're only credited as co-writers because they were also working on their own Scream parody at the time the Wayan were writing it & they agreed to stop production so that it could be made
Gonna admit it... The idea of characters trying to escape from a "parody movie" of this kind, avoiding like acid any reference... That could be a good movie... If it was in the right hands.
And, instead of the phone call comercial, they could have used... I don't know... THE FRICKING DINOSAUR SKELETON COMING TO LIFE TO A JURASSIC PARK/NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM REFERENCE! ...No, of course not, it had to be thought by someone... Well, at least Kim died, that's something I can't say is bad at all.

Apparently, the story of these two directors was also too stupid and not worth anything to include. But worry not! Once upon a time, there was a guy. He worked in Hollywood, he did a little of this and that, and there was nothing special about him whatsoever. One day, this guy ran into Leslie Neilson, who was looking to make a parody of golf instructional videos, without necessarily wanting any meaningful budget or hype. The guy thought "I can do that!" And they did, and it was whatever. But then the guy said: "By the way, Mr. Neilson: My good for nothing, son, and his good for nothing frat bro, have written a script they thought of between their actual classes, while playing pretend that they're funny. It's just like a Naked Gun ripoff! Would you be interested in teaming with me again and making their dreams come true?" So they did, and it was Spy Hard, which is bad but whatever. Then, the guy went back to being a guy. But the good for nothing son, and the good for nothing frat bro, decided they were totally worth the nepotism screenwriter credits they now had and went all over Hollywood, trying to sell scripts. That should have been it right there - just an odd sale or two of a bottom-of-the-barrel comedy that some producer thought they might plausibly use and then wouldn't. But when the Wayans got their script for Scary Movie green lit, it turned out the two had sold their own horror comedy script to the same people earlier and now had a plausible lawsuit. This resulted in shared directors' credits for them. Thus, the good for nothing son and frat bro, who you might have gathered, by now, are Friedberg and Seltzer, got to go all over Hollywood, selling themselves as the directors of Scary Movie, making no-budget knockoffs, that stupid teenagers believed were the same thing. They lived rich-hacks ever after.
Fun fact; They killed off Kim kardashian bc she was the most expensive cast member and didn’t have enough to continue having her on board. They were changing the script during and on going. She has stated that she never saw the movie and doesn’t plan to, and I don’t blame her. Idk if she regrets the film, don’t quote me on it. She’s done better films, jokes and all.
We shall not thank them for cheaping out the actress who would voice the poodle from the PAW patrol movie years later, and somehow she felt more important in that
I hate that these movies killed the career of Crista Flanagan who is a truly talented comedienne but suffered irreparable damage from being in these films to the point she pretty much stopped acting
I mean, she did agree to be in multiple Friedberg/Seltzer productions. So she has no one to blame but herself, but I agree that she is a very talented comedic actress
22:20 Don't forget they also referenced The Day After Tomorrow as well when the city started freezing (another parody that wasn't from 2008. Even as a kid who wasn't allowed to see these movies at the time due to the PG-13 rating (though there were exceptions like Transformers, possibly because the franchise was always intended for children), I was confused when that was also referenced in one of the posters).
None of these movies can every reach the comedy level of Leslie Nelson parody movies. A few have good moments, like Kevin Sorbo holding hands and skipping away in Meet the Spartans, or the first Scary Movie. But most of them just go for toilet humor and come off as a second grade classroom randomly yelling out "fart" or "boobs".
Effective parody requires one to understand the work they are parodying. There's honestly a degree of sophistication that can come from parody and satire, but the bar for doing so in such a way that's enjoyable is surprisingly high. Hell, one of the most revered works of the Western Literary Canon is a parody of a genre that doesn't even really exist anymore, and yet Don Quixote is still a widely respected work. Modern genre parodies are far more interested in cramming as many jokes into as short a time as possible with no concern for whether they work or not. A good joke should breathe.
Yeah, and that's why I think the best of these "Movie" movies is the one Leslie Nielsen was actually in: Superhero movie. It wasn't perfect, and it was guilty of some of the same BS this film pulled, like "laugh at this reference". But those were nowhere near frequent enough to become a major issue, and there were also a lot of gags that were great too. Plus most of the cast was great at making those gags work.
The ending sequence where they parody the song about Matt Damon is an awe-inspiring experience. When you watch it, you realize that you are watching the end of the parody genre of movies.
I appluad that both of you (Rob and Doug) sat through this film all the way through. I would not be able still through 30 minutes of "You do you do fellow kids?" Movies
Another Fun Fact: Disaster Movie occupied the #1 spot on the IMDb Bottom 100 for almost four months, from shortly after its August 2008 release until December, when it was dethroned by Sweetie Pie, an obscure thriller starring Paris Hilton. The film returned to #1 on the Bottom 100 when Sweetie Pie disappeared briefly from the Database.
Yeah, because this movie should burn in hell with the rest of the other controversial movies and video games and TV shows and anime so Lord Jesus Christ send them to the void.
Technically, they already are. The last film they did, a parody of Fast and Furious called "Superfast!", was made almost 10 years ago. Since then, no scripts, no producer's role, no executive producer... Nothing.
This was one of the jokes that actually made me mad when I saw this movie in the theater they referenced her slurred speech, her deteriorating mental state, her appearance, and substance abuse ptoblems sure anything for a chuckle except Amy was dealing with these issues IN REAL LIFE to make things worst she passed away not too long after this film released
@@rickyrosay33977 Yeah, who could have thought that this would age poorly? 🙈🙈 It has aged just as well as all those Michael Jackson jokes and parodies from the 90s and 00s - it was crystal clear that the person spoofed had serious issues and would end up in tragedy and that it's not appropriate to exploit that for cheap laughs.
I remember when I was a kid in 2008 I would see commercials for that movie Don’t Mess With The Zohan and in the commercials they would play that scene where Adam Sandler is kicking that one dude in the face. And then later in the day I would see a commercial for this movie and they show a clip “parodying” that exact scene and I was just so confused back then. I was thinking “wait are 2 movies coming out at the same time doing the same joke?
I have gaslighted myself into thinking this movie did not exist for 16 years, and you do this! WHY?! 😭 I never saw it in theaters, but some of my friends did, and they said at least half of the audience walked out. It was being pulled from theaters altogether so quickly!
The only way to truly enjoy this movie is to be drunk because I swear I remember dieing at how stupid this scene is when I was younger and drunk 6:16 ,but now it does nothing for me

The craziest part about this is I remember the advertising for this movie. I remember that they advertised it as if they were taking on Hollywood. The trailer even at one point said "this year's hottest movies... Are going down". They advertised this as if it was going to be a surgical critique of overproduced trophy films and then all it did was that. I was about 13 years old in 2008 and I remember getting about 4 minutes into this movie and going "This is really dumb". And then I went and watched something else.

I did watch this movie to the end, but only because my Asperger's syndrome makes me terrible at interrupting what I'm doing before it's finished out of my own volition.
This movie is an abomination
That is just impressive
According to the Wayans Brothers, two of the actual writers of Scary movie: Setlzer and Freeberg didn't contribute jack shit to their movies and were only credited as 'two of the six writers' because at the time Scary Movie was being made they were making their own worse slasher parody called Scream If you Know What I Did Last Halloween before their script was bought by the Weinstein Company. Setlzer and Freeberg would then throw a fit claiming Wayans Brothers ripped them off so the Writers Guild forced them to include their names in Scary Movie's credits.
The Weinsteins overpaid for S&F's script, I bet.
IIRC, that bought script had a name change: Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the 13th
@@JYoungbloodVO I don't think so. Shriek was made before Scary Movie (as you may probably notice by how grainy and old the film looks, even in an HD source), but I think they heard Dimension was already working in a Scream parody, so instead of a theatrical release the movie ended up in USA Network and directly on VHS and DVD to avoid being accused of plagiarism. It has nothing to do with Friedberg and Seltzer's writing style - the movie was called "I Know What You Screamed Last Semester" when Lionsgate bought the script - because it was more in the style of Zucker brothers' productions and had more PG-13 jokes (although being rated R)
@@phantomzone2725 Yeah, that tracks. Admittedly, I don't really know much about Shriek, it just aired on Chiller real late and I caught it when I was extremely tired. All I remember from it is that the Killer starts off with a hockey mask, is given a hot iron to the face, and the mask melts into the Ghostface mask XD. I'll have to see if that and IKWYSLS are available anywhere
Shriek came out in October of 2000 while Scary Movie was Summer 2000. I read the script of Last Halloween and minus some similar jokes to Scary Movie (I believe all three scripts are coincidences) it's more Shriek plot wise. I'm doing a Scary movie retrospective in October to set the record straight.
The face Chaplin gives Rob at the end was better acted than anyone in the movie. He looked genuinely worried about not having a movie script.
Best performance in the whole Video no doubt. Chaplin is a natural pro
I met Matt lanter (the voice of anakin) in real life, I asked him what it was like to film this movie. He said the movie is really bad but he did have fun filming it, makes sense because who wouldn’t have fun filming a bad film like this.
He also said Kim kardashian was very nice
And Tony cox was cool (but didn’t talk to him in a while)
Its only fun making it but its traumatizing to you're brain imo.
Yeah, apparently many of the cast members had fun filming this movie, since, according to Media Mementos, the chemistry between the cast and crew was important for the jokes to land.
It was all in vain, tho.
There's a reason why he only does voice acting now.
The key to a good parody is that it be able to stand on its own even if you don't get all the jokes. Look at stuff like Austin Powers, Spaceballs, or The Naked Gun. Even if you don't know what they're referencing, they still strive to be funny within the context of the setting itself, and still tell a coherent story that can stand on its own even if the referenced material didn't exist.
With movies like this however, there's nothing there but the references, and without them there'd be nothing connecting what little story there is together at all.

Hell, look at Airplane. The movie is near beat for beat the movie Zero Hour just with jokes added in. It’s literally parodying a cheap 1950’s disaster movie nobody cares about, let alone seen, but it’s still one of the greatest comedies ever made
I have seen, maybe, 2 James Bond films in my life... And that was AFTER have seen the Austin Powers trilogy several times.
That's why I love "Tucker and Dale vs. Evil", which parodies the "Evil Hillbillies" and "the cabin in the woods" tropes on the horror films. But still makes the film its own film.
What about Galaxy Quest?
Even people like me who haven’t seen Star Trek can find something to laugh about in that film.
That’s another example of what a parody movie should be.
You know how bad this film is? Back when the RUclips channel Cinematic Excrement was covering every movie that has won the Razzie for Worst Picture, he eventually covered the 2008 winner, The Love Guru, and when he brought up if any of the other films that got nominated were worse, he started with Disaster Movie and immediately stopped there because he declared it WORSE than The Love Guru, that's how bad it is
I believe your referring to Cinematic Excrement, correct?
I remember seeing that, Love Guru was bad but I agree with him. This was worst.
It's actually been well-documented that Friedberg and Seltzer literally just based the contemporary film jokes and references off their respective trailers alone.
They never even bothered to watch the actual movies before satirising them! They’re like if Trey Parker & Matt Stone NEVER did any research on anything while making “South Park”.
Basically admitting that their parody movies don’t even know the movies they are satirizing
They are the reverse Lord & Miller

Back in the day I saw someone call this movie "We saw a bunch of trailers and added fart jokes: The Movie".
This movie's script literally has Tourette's syndrome - it just shouts out random pop cultural references without any story or characters tying them together. Even Family Guy isn't as random as this.

I heard from a good source who was indirectly working on one of these Movie-movies, that the writer's would literally watch trailers for whatever movies were coming up and put them in the script. That's why all those things were referenced. They NEVER saw them before writing them into the script.
The movies weren't even out yet during the productions of these parodies. They had to make these as fast as possible so the IPs would still be relevant by the time they release.
@@troin3925 Then how did they have the exact designs of costumes and characters if the trailers weren't even out? Do you think studios just runaround sharing that information??
@@some1namedno1 I said the movies weren’t out yet. My point was that they used trailers.
That makes so much sense, and I hate it
The thing about ''Meet the spartans'' is that I watched the bloopers after the movie and they were genuinely funny. The movie was awful and the jokes almost never worked, but the bloopers were actually hilarious. They should have just released them as an actual movie.
Yup
If the bloopers are funnier than the actual film, that's never a good sign.
I felt the need to verify that. You are not wrong. Plus, the first result was only four minutes long. No big loss.
You know what's funnier than that Dr. Phil joke?
The fact Dr. Phil was already in Scar Movie 4 and said "Hell No, I'm Not Having My Name Associated With One Of These DAMN Movies Again!"

So this movie parodies Jumper, a movie that starred Hayden Christenson who also played Anakin Skywalker, with Matt Lanter would go on to voice Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars the Clone Wars. The only slightly clever thing in this movie was a complete accident!

These movies tried so hard to make every character Cindy from scary movie. But they forgot that Anna Farris at least tried to act, you genuinely believed her character Cindy was a dumb ass

The funny thing is Friedberg and Seltzer got the basic idea to satirize these movies from watching the trailers as half weren’t released by the time they started shooting. And it shows. Good god it shows.
Yup, that's it. They clearly have no idea what they're actually parodying and will just shoehorn anything in that might be popular and relevant at that time, no matter how long it will be remembered or whether it will be popular in the first place. This also clearly shows when they reference things that might have become popular, but ended up becoming flops, like Nacho Libre in Epic Movie.
They could have waited long enough for those Films to be shown in Theaters AND THHEEEEEENN satirized them......maybe.
This was one of the reasons parody films died after 2000s. They did try again in 2013 (or 2015, can't remember) with Scary Movie 5, which didn't help really. Also, I can't believe you guys never covered one of these movies, but I can understand why.
Understand what?

"Ah yes. Charlie Chaplin. Another reference. brilliant."
A film which will win thirteen Academy Awards an be single-handedly responsible for the creation of the category "Best Screenplay by a Non Human Writer," which of course causes extreme controversy when the criteria for "Non Human" is leaked on-line. A new AI written Bladerunner film will be produced which will be surprisingly good until it's revealed to not have actually been AI written, but instead adapted from Philip K Dick's Ubik with Deckard being a stand-in for Runciter.
Chaplin will probably do a better movie than this one.

At least Scary Movie 3 gave us "Brenda's dead," as well as that reoccurring gag of Anthony Anderson and Kevin Hart arguing over schemantics, like "waking up dead" or "mouse versus rat."
[Insert Reference] walks into frame.
"[Insert Reference]!"
[Insert reference] does something gross or gets kicked in the balls.
That's every joke in this movie.
Any moron can do it, and two morons did it many times.
The sad part is Superhero Movie was actually good. But there was so much trash in the mix that nobody gave it a chance. It parodies the first Toby Maguire Spiderman movie. It has Christopher McDonald as the villain and Leslie Nielsen as the uncle Ben. There were some weak jokes but a lot of gold too.
That movie was written by Craig Mazden. The creator of Chernobyl and the last of us tv series.
That movie is a bar of gold (or silver) in a pile of dung
Finally, another person willing to recognize that it’s actually surprisingly good.
Tbf, Hourglass had a badass costume. Actual effort went into that movie
Ah, Superhero movie, the only Spider-Man movie starring Drake Bell.
Speaking of Disaster Movies, that's a genre that Critic never touches. He covered Twister and that's it. Would love a review of Volcano, Dante's Peak, Armageddon, The Day After Tomorrow etc
I can only assume but I think it's because he wouldn't have anything new to add to the conversation even in joke form, any problems he had with Twister are most likely the exact problems he would have with every other disaster movie, the only thing different would probably be the love interest trope as I don't think they use the "broken up, get back together by the end" plotline in every movie
He also reviewed Independence Day and it's sequel. But I guess he doesn't review them because there's really not much substance to them.
I really want him to review “Titanic” which unlike many other disaster movies that were literally disasters at the box office, was actually the 1st movie in Hollywood history to gross $1 BILLION at the box office! 😊

Finally, I've been waiting years for Nostalgia Critic to review a Jason Frieberg and Aaron Selzer Comedy!
Funny thing about the writers of the movie, Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer is that they didn't write any thing for Scary Movie. they wrote a separate parody for Scream that was brought, only to be shelved.
“Aww HELL no, Kung Fu Panda” is the one joke I remember that makes me laugh, it’s just delivered so funnily.
I love he didn't even called him Po, but Kung Fu Panda (as if nobody would recognize the monstruous stuntman in suit). It's like people calling Remy as Ratatouille
I agree. As soon as I saw the title of the video, I said to myself: "Hell no, Kung Fu Panda!" 😂😂
@@phantomzone2725 yup, but considering how Doug points out they almost certainly didn’t watch 90% of the movies they referenced, they probably didn’t even know his name was Po to begin with. But I think it’s funnier to imagine it as him referring to him by his movie’s name 😂
@@phantomzone2725 It's like a friend when he said "You saw the new Bruce Willis film where he is the Die Hard?"
24:12 Chaplin is such a good actor, I really believe he was paying attention to their conversation.
The saddest part of this movie is seeing legacy Mad TV actors Ike Barinholtz, Nicole Parker, and Crista Flanagan embarrass themselves here with such subpar material. Yeah, they mocked celebrities on that show, but the writing was much better and they did more original sketches too.
When the crackhead princess said “I have such a terrible headache,” I literally screamed “NOOOOO!” at the top of my lungs, because I knew what was coming.
I love how Chaplin looks so intently at Rob at the end. 😂 Yes a cat doing basic cat stuff was the biggest thing of substance in this episode, definitely more valuable than anything in the movie.
Matt Lanter also voiced Anakin Skywalker in the only animated theatrical Star Wars film the same year as this movie. I can only imagine Matt feeling lucky as The Clone Wars series became George Lucas' biggest band aid for the prequel trilogy.
1:46 Yeah, aren't you two still engaged or are you just waiting for the next Chipmunks movie to come out to get married?
I thought I’d never see the day Nostalgia Critic would actually do a proper review of Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer’s masterpiece of barrel scraping art.
And yet here we are! This video was totally worth it.

They literally just reference anything that is or might be popular to be hip and relevant, not because they have a funny joke to make about it. This was also rather obvious in Epic Move when they parodied Nacho Libre, which became a box office bomb.
Considering that a Michael Jackson-lookalike appears in this movie, what's pretty harsh and eventually tasteless is that this movie was released on the King of Pop's final birthday when he was alive.

At least she seems have something of a sense of humor about herself.
Apparently they never got awarded those awards, even though they got nominated.
Friedberg & Seltzer didn't work on Scary Movie
They're only credited as co-writers because they were also working on their own Scream parody at the time the Wayan were writing it & they agreed to stop production so that it could be made
Gonna admit it... The idea of characters trying to escape from a "parody movie" of this kind, avoiding like acid any reference... That could be a good movie... If it was in the right hands.

Apparently, the story of these two directors was also too stupid and not worth anything to include. But worry not!
Once upon a time, there was a guy. He worked in Hollywood, he did a little of this and that, and there was nothing special about him whatsoever.
One day, this guy ran into Leslie Neilson, who was looking to make a parody of golf instructional videos, without necessarily wanting any meaningful budget or hype. The guy thought "I can do that!" And they did, and it was whatever.
But then the guy said: "By the way, Mr. Neilson: My good for nothing, son, and his good for nothing frat bro, have written a script they thought of between their actual classes, while playing pretend that they're funny. It's just like a Naked Gun ripoff! Would you be interested in teaming with me again and making their dreams come true?"
So they did, and it was Spy Hard, which is bad but whatever. Then, the guy went back to being a guy. But the good for nothing son, and the good for nothing frat bro, decided they were totally worth the nepotism screenwriter credits they now had and went all over Hollywood, trying to sell scripts.
That should have been it right there - just an odd sale or two of a bottom-of-the-barrel comedy that some producer thought they might plausibly use and then wouldn't. But when the Wayans got their script for Scary Movie green lit, it turned out the two had sold their own horror comedy script to the same people earlier and now had a plausible lawsuit. This resulted in shared directors' credits for them.
Thus, the good for nothing son and frat bro, who you might have gathered, by now, are Friedberg and Seltzer, got to go all over Hollywood, selling themselves as the directors of Scary Movie, making no-budget knockoffs, that stupid teenagers believed were the same thing. They lived rich-hacks ever after.
This movie may as well be called "2008" movie, since it parodied everything that was recently popular at the time.

I mean, she did agree to be in multiple Friedberg/Seltzer productions. So she has no one to blame but herself, but I agree that she is a very talented comedic actress
@@PowerGlove79 Yet Ike Barinholtz came out of being in these movies just fine
I can’t see this movie as reviewable it’s not even a movie. It’s just a collection of everything that was relevant from 2006 to 2008.
22:20 Don't forget they also referenced The Day After Tomorrow as well when the city started freezing (another parody that wasn't from 2008. Even as a kid who wasn't allowed to see these movies at the time due to the PG-13 rating (though there were exceptions like Transformers, possibly because the franchise was always intended for children), I was confused when that was also referenced in one of the posters).
“…Will, played by Matt Lanter.”
“You were the chosen one!”
Eh, still better than most of the references in this movie.
@@davidker8820 I’m just glad he was able to go onto better stuff after this movie.
I’m pretty sure he’s the ONLY actor that got into better stuff after this movie 😂
None of these movies can every reach the comedy level of Leslie Nelson parody movies. A few have good moments, like Kevin Sorbo holding hands and skipping away in Meet the Spartans, or the first Scary Movie. But most of them just go for toilet humor and come off as a second grade classroom randomly yelling out "fart" or "boobs".
Effective parody requires one to understand the work they are parodying. There's honestly a degree of sophistication that can come from parody and satire, but the bar for doing so in such a way that's enjoyable is surprisingly high. Hell, one of the most revered works of the Western Literary Canon is a parody of a genre that doesn't even really exist anymore, and yet Don Quixote is still a widely respected work. Modern genre parodies are far more interested in cramming as many jokes into as short a time as possible with no concern for whether they work or not. A good joke should breathe.
Yeah, and that's why I think the best of these "Movie" movies is the one Leslie Nielsen was actually in: Superhero movie. It wasn't perfect, and it was guilty of some of the same BS this film pulled, like "laugh at this reference". But those were nowhere near frequent enough to become a major issue, and there were also a lot of gags that were great too. Plus most of the cast was great at making those gags work.
WHat about any of Mel Brooks' Movies?
So you’re saying Superhero Movie’s awesome because it has Leslie Nelson… an actor most gen zers don’t know?
@@ShockwaveFPSStudios Probably
Every time Nostalgia Critic uploads, I’m like “It’s Wednesday already??”
Tbh I know it's bad but I have a soft spot for these movies due to seeing them as a kid
The ending sequence where they parody the song about Matt Damon is an awe-inspiring experience. When you watch it, you realize that you are watching the end of the parody genre of movies.
I appluad that both of you (Rob and Doug) sat through this film all the way through. I would not be able still through 30 minutes of "You do you do fellow kids?" Movies
Another Fun Fact: Disaster Movie occupied the #1 spot on the IMDb Bottom 100 for almost four months, from shortly after its August 2008 release until December, when it was dethroned by Sweetie Pie, an obscure thriller starring Paris Hilton. The film returned to #1 on the Bottom 100 when Sweetie Pie disappeared briefly from the Database.
Gotta love how a movie which basically does not exist managed to get worse reviews than Disaster Movie
This movie is the literal opposite of The Shawshank Redemption!
@@smittyjjensin558searched it up and apparently Sweetie Pie was a real movie.
A film with Kim Kardashian followed by a film with Paris Hilton. It doesn't get any more 2008 than that.
@@torstenscholz6243
Kim Kardashian: I'm acting!😂
I will give the casting department props for some of the actors really bearing a striking resemblance to the originals
Even Chaplin was left speechless at the end.
Friedberg and Seltzer MUST be blacklisted from Hollywood!
Yeah, because this movie should burn in hell with the rest of the other controversial movies and video games and TV shows and anime so Lord Jesus Christ send them to the void.
Technically, they already are. The last film they did, a parody of Fast and Furious called "Superfast!", was made almost 10 years ago. Since then, no scripts, no producer's role, no executive producer... Nothing.
5:43 The Amy Winehouse teeth joke was supposed to be a nod to Roland Emmerich's film '10,000 BC (2008)'.
This was one of the jokes that actually made me mad when I saw this movie in the theater they referenced her slurred speech, her deteriorating mental state, her appearance, and substance abuse ptoblems sure anything for a chuckle except Amy was dealing with these issues IN REAL LIFE to make things worst she passed away not too long after this film released
@@rickyrosay33977 Yeah, who could have thought that this would age poorly? 🙈🙈 It has aged just as well as all those Michael Jackson jokes and parodies from the 90s and 00s - it was crystal clear that the person spoofed had serious issues and would end up in tragedy and that it's not appropriate to exploit that for cheap laughs.
That ET card joke was classic Doug we all loved your references
I remember when I was a kid in 2008 I would see commercials for that movie Don’t Mess With The Zohan and in the commercials they would play that scene where Adam Sandler is kicking that one dude in the face. And then later in the day I would see a commercial for this movie and they show a clip “parodying” that exact scene and I was just so confused back then. I was thinking “wait are 2 movies coming out at the same time doing the same joke?
That's the problem with parodying comedies, they're already making fun of themselves. It's just retelling the same jokes but worse.
I still love Scary Movie 1 & 2 to this day!
shitposting before shitposting, this movie was ahead of its time, its truly a masterpiece
Well, at least the title didn't lied to us. This really is, a DISASTER of a movie!
Thanks For this Guys! Been feeling sick lately and your content always helps
I have gaslighted myself into thinking this movie did not exist for 16 years, and you do this! WHY?! 😭 I never saw it in theaters, but some of my friends did, and they said at least half of the audience walked out. It was being pulled from theaters altogether so quickly!
The only way to truly enjoy this movie is to be drunk because I swear I remember dieing at how stupid this scene is when I was younger and drunk 6:16 ,but now it does nothing for me
