      Depends.

      Give me more Airplane, Naked Gun, and Tropic Thunder.

      Give me less anything made by Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer. I want parodies that know the source material.

        Who would we need to bribe to get a Hot Shots! part 3 that’s a parody of unnecessary sequels to decades-old franchises?

      I think those things were mostly paid for with DVD sales. People barely go to summer blockbusters anymore. I would guess the modern equivalent is the straight to streaming movies but they only seem to make mediocre action movies that seem like they are written by LLM
