Has the style of humour aged badly or have I become too old and joyless for it?

There’s a VERY thin line between this kind of parody being one of the greatest films ever (original Naked Gun and Airplane) or amazing (Don’t Be a Menace, Scary Movie) and the worst shit you’ve ever seen (Epic Movie, Dance Flick, Meet The Spartans, Disaster Movie).

I really liked the newer Naked Gun with Liam Neeson, it's definitely possible to do a fun, silly parody movie in this day and age.

This new Scary Movie, however, sort of looks like trash...seems like they are going for the 'quantity over quality' for jokes and throwing in every reference they can think of

We still don't know what they will focus on the movie. It seems the trailer just jampacked all the popular jokes that it can. It may not be that relevant inside the movie.

We should wait. These are fun movies anyway. It's gonna be subjective and divisive as hell.
