The most recent I can think of is Hot Fuzz (2007)
Tropic thunder
I’m bout ready to put Tiger Balm on this jungle’s nuts
Weird came out in 2022
I can’t believe I haven’t seen that yet.
Almost by definition that’s a parody.
But that’s also an extremely fine line.
I don’t see how it isn’t a parody. It’s a parody of biopics, of Weird Al, of movies in general, of reality in general…
I was just being silly as this is about spoofs and not parodies.
tbh I’m not sure what the difference is
I feel like hail Cesar and death to Stalin were a bit more nuanced comedy, but both decently spoofish. Beerfest felt like it wanted to be a spoof film, but then they enjoyed making it too much.
Deadpool2 would make my list of spoof films, but tries too hard to be original.
If hot fuzz is on the list then at least a couple of the above make the list. Imo hot fuzz is satirical as much as spoof.
Spoofs died in the mid 2000’s, they were greatly overproduced, and lost their luster. Kingsmen could be considered a spoof, akin to the spoofs of the mid 2000’s, just a terrible movie that seems to be “we can make this genre too, but sillier”
Tucker and dale vs evil
This is Spinal Tap (1984)
Maybe not a direct spoof, but Black Dynamite. Though it’s not new, 2009.
The two Hitman’s Bodyguard films were pretty good
Superhero movie (2008)
Movie 43 (2013)
Scary Movie 5 (2013)
The Starving Games {2013(highly recommend)}
This is a list of the movies that killed the genre moreso than a list of movies that are great.
I mean I’ll be the first person to admit that my taste is apparently shit to the common person.
But I loved each of these movies. I love absurdist humor.
