Disaster movie
 
Anyone else seen the previews for this and then become sad to be alive...?
I mean man... it gets worse when you think that two adults were paid high amounts to sit down and write such shit.

Yeah when are those guys going to give up? Seriously, when you have a movie in the IMDB's bottom 100, that's a sign.

The trailer just looks like a cut scene from a PS3 game. A boring PS3 game at that.

It looks like it follows the basic family guy formula where it follows a very very thin and short line as a platform for random and unrelated jokes...

ya know, i know these horrible parody movies are garbage and i shouldn't be watching them... but i gotta admit. their kinda a guilty pleasure of mine. ir eally like watching them when i'm "higher than a bird's dick". :)

I don't know what sucks more. The x Movie series or Family Guy

They make money. That's the only reason they exist.

Hmm. I haven't bothered paying attention to 99% of mainstream movies in years (Dark Knight notwithstanding). There's a reason for that.

Don't give them your money and they won't be made anymore...

Also, the imdb bottom 100 is not a good gauge for movies. I'd rather watch a lot of movies on there -- Surf Nazis Must Die, Troll 2, even Manos -- over any of the Pirates of the Caribean or Matrix films, for example.

True, there is some definite trash on the bottom 100, but I dunno.........

Troll 2 and Manos are classics in their own ways.

New movies have sucked ass for years.....it's a joke. The Dark Knight was pretty tight though.

You're the reason they keep making more of these movies? These movies are actually an insult to movies within the parody genre. There's the high standard set by "Airplane" and there's the burnt shit you can't scrape off a dumpster barrell known as "Disaster Movie" Or any (fill in the blank) Movie that's come out in the past few years. These movies rely on pop flash in the pan refferences, and think simply because its refferences a movie/tv show, or album you might have seen or heard just last season, its funny because its in thier movie. "Oh, hey in this scene we got Juno mixing it up with some Clay Aiken wanna-be" isn't that an odd paring?"
