Anytime a film – or film genre – becomes popular, one can rest assured that people will appear to make fun of it.
The 1990s also saw its fair share of great spoofs, including titles like Austin Powers, Hot Shots, and Galaxy Quest.
Next on their list of targets is the Star Wars franchise, in the form of the ridiculously titled upcoming spoof movie Star Worlds Episode XXXIVE=MC2: The Force Awakens The Last Jedi Who Went Rogue.
The primary source of this derision is arguably the filmmaking duo of Aaron Seltzer and Jason Friedberg, writers/directors of multiple half-baked parodies like Date Movie, Epic Movie, and Meet the Spartans.
