643872, I think Frank's winking with that one.
Posted by Cold Truth, Mon Mar-11-13 11:58 PM
That, or he misread the title, which is understandable. I initially read it as "best parody of 80's movies" myself.

My first thought is that Frank is joking with that selection, because WHAS is essentially an 80's movie spoofing the style.
643873, I misread it as parody of the 1980s. My bad.

643878, Actually, I didn't misread it. The post title should say "from."
Posted by Frank Longo, Tue Mar-12-13 02:21 AM
Not "of."

So I RESCIND ALL ADMISSIONS OF MISREADING.
643892, Fucking teachers, man.

You're right though.

643963, Read an article way back that they were going to do a sequel

Read an article way back that they were going to do a sequel to Spaceballs but it was going to be called Spaceballs 3: The Search for Spaceballs 2. I thought that was such a great title.
644090, let me tell you, off of this one scene alone...lmao!!!

I woulda voted Top Secret! anyway. Love that movie.
643890, I watched that movie once...
Posted by jigga, Tue Mar-12-13 10:21 AM
...once

I would've included it in the poll as well but Top Secret still takes the cake
643877, Top Secret by a hair. Rather, a Kilmer.
Posted by bignick, Tue Mar-12-13 02:11 AM
643883, 'If Looks Could Kill' misses the cutoff by a few years, BUT...
Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Tue Mar-12-13 08:24 AM
I always wondered where Grieco would take that character to if given more time.
643888, I swear my brother and I are the only ones to ever see that film
Posted by JiggysMyDayJob, Tue Mar-12-13 09:56 AM
It's a god awful movie but we loved how silly it was. I believe the sequel to that would be the James Bond Jr. animated series.
643884, easily Top Secret. hon. mention: Loaded Weapon 1
Posted by araQual, Tue Mar-12-13 09:02 AM
it was from 93 but totally fits the 80s mould.

643889, Whatever happened to Lenoard Part I-IV
Posted by JiggysMyDayJob, Tue Mar-12-13 09:58 AM
and we needed a VII damn it!
643897, Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid
Posted by Selah, Tue Mar-12-13 11:10 AM
under-rated (in the pretty much forgotten sense) and very funny
643985, a personal classic
Posted by araQual, Wed Mar-13-13 02:11 AM

643998, you fainted and they shifted all out of whack.
Posted by Selah, Wed Mar-13-13 10:20 AM
643906, Loaded Weapon 1 and its not close
Posted by JAESCOTT777, Tue Mar-12-13 12:12 PM
643997, Does History of the World Pt 1 count as a parody?
Posted by Selah, Wed Mar-13-13 10:19 AM
if so, then that
644083, Just wanted to add I love all these
Posted by go mack, Wed Mar-13-13 08:16 PM
Weird Al not getting love, but UHF kicks ass, still hard to top Top Secret or Spaceballs tho so can see that. The Airplane movies are great, and I like all the Naked Gun movies even 33 1/3 had its moments.

Scary Movies first two were good, the others started getting cornier and lots of really bad ones in recent years. Loaded Weapon 1 and Hot Shots were pretty good, when they started doing Date Movie, Not Another Teen Movie, etc a lot of those weren't even dumb enuff to be funny.
644123, I loved the first Scary Movie but quit after the 2nd
Posted by jigga, Thu Mar-14-13 10:06 AM
I liked Not Another Teen Movie too
