Hot Shots! Part Deux is the funniest 'parody' movie

[Bishop89]

That is all.
Yes, even better than airplane.

 

[obin_gam]

Yes

 

[Zor]

War.

It's fantastic!

 

[KrisHolt]

I've loved it since I was a kid, even before I understood many of the references. I've still never seen Hot Shots though.

 

[Kadzork]

Why did I bring helium.. instead of air?

 

[xxracerxx]

Top Secret holds that spot for me.

 

[PanzerKraken]

When he just throws the bullets, so good

 

[gozu]

Yes

It was legendary at the time. High production values for a parody.

 

[Sanjuro]

Take OP to Detroit

 

[Hollywood Duo]

Not sure it's the best but it is amazing

 

[deimosmasque]

"Thank you, Topper. I can kill again! You've given me a reason to live."

"I loved you in Wall Street!" with dueling internal narration.

Throwing bullets to kill people.

"What are you reading?"
"Great Expectations."
"Is it any good?"
"It's not all I hoped for."

The first is more a pure Top Gun parody. It's good, but Part Deux is the better movie. Lloyd Bridges is so good in this.

 

[TarpitCarnivore]

I've been meaning to revisit these as I've recently re-watched Loaded Weapon 1 and Last Action Hero

 

[B.K.]

I always thought Hot Shots was better, but I haven't seen them since the 90s.

 

[Dr. Monkey]

Truly a masterpiece of ridiculousness.

Same, love both of them but always preferred the first.

 

[Alexandros]

In my memory Hot Shots was better but they are both really funny. I miss the genre.

 

[Deleted member 13798]

I think the first Hot Shots was a little more consistently funny but they're both wonderful. Lloyd Bridges was effortlessly funny. The scene with his hat and the helicopter slays me every time.

Y'all need to see Top Secret! if you want a truly underappreciated gem of the genre.

 

[Jimnymebob]

I prefer the first one I think, but they're both good.
The second one was a bit too silly lol.

 

[pauljeremiah]

Nothing beats an underwater barfight

 

[VAD]

It had everything, even Mr Bean!

 

[louiedog]

I think about this sequence from the first one often. What could go wrong?

 

[LastNac]

What's the Parody film where Bruce Willis' place is blown up by mistake?

"Wendy I can fly!" Fucking love that line.

And the funeral scene is just the best. Lloyd Bridges is fantastic.

 

[Lemony1984]

"I loved you in Wall Street!"

That killed me as a kid even though I didn't know what Wall Street or Apocalypse Now were.

 

[Sheepinator]

Nah, Airplane is still the GOAT for me.

Honorable mention to the series Sledge Hammer!

 

[deimosmasque]

It is such a shame that this genre was hammered into the ground by the "(Genre) Movie" movies and don't exist anymore.

 

[eXistor]

It's not, but it's a good one for sure. I think I watched it at least 10 times.

OMG! How have I never seen this film?!? I can't believe I went my entire life and never even knew it existed... that entire sequence was incredible!

Hot Shots is God tier.

 

[djplaeskool]

Man, both Hot Shots movies were absolute bangers back in the day.

Not Another Teen Movie is an underrated gem IMO.

That's from Top Secret not Hot Shots

 

[Hecht]

Loaded Weapon 1 is my favorite but Hot Shots 1 and Deux are great

 

[KujoJosuke]

Airplane, Naked Gun, and Hot Shots Part Deux are so integral to the sense of humor I have today.

Like, I was a kid watching these movies laughing my ass off at jokes I didn't understand but just -knew- were funny. And I kept watching them as I grew up, understanding more and more jokes and even now watching them I catch a joke I missed before. Just like War, they're Fantastic.

top secret is a classic

 

[The Albatross]

It's not better than airplane or police academy/naked gun, but it's really good. I miss good parody movies.

Scary Movies and the dreck from those directors afterwards completely destroyed the spoof genre.

Absolutely incredible movie

Man the 80s-90s rocked for parodies.

Robin Hood men in tights might be my number 1 but the naked guns and others are incredible.

 

[MOTHGOD]

I am ashamed to admit ive never seen any of these. But now i wanna watch them all today lmao. Those clips were so good!
