I watched the original Scream years after seeing Scary Movie, and realized Scary Movie is just Scream on cocaine. A lot of the jokes are the same or just slightly different.
What’s the line between being self aware and a parody?

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were originally a parody of Daredevil. I think they have surpassed it in popularity.
As a reminder, bitemark forensics is found to not be valid, but law enforcement uses it to convict anyway.
It is amazing, though I think Thud is my favorite, as nothing has made me attempt to stifle a laugh harder than Vimes screaming, “Where’s my cow‽”
Good to know! Thank you.
Is that what dwarf bread is based on?

Based on everything I’ve seen and read, there is not much benefit to funding a stadium, and that’s without the owners’ constant threats of leaving if they dont get more blackmail money.
Sshhh! They know something we don’t.

Elton never invented anything, he’s skated on other’s success. He’s more the evil partner from the first Iron Man using others’ inventions.
The transcript released by the White House press office, however, rendered the quote with an apostrophe, reading “supporter’s” rather than “supporters,” which aides said pointed to Biden criticizing Hinchcliffe

One night as I was in my room, my mom called me from the kitchen down the hall. As I walk down the hall, I’m pulled into the closet and a hand is clasped over my mouth to silence me. My mom whispers “Shhh, I heard it too.”
DW has a documentary where an naturalized citizen working as an immigration lawyer says that her clients would prefer her be a Trump fan, because if she’s cool with Trump, then he wouldn’t target them.

Serious question, what is the political ideology that says that normal people, including minorities, deserve respect, and those with power deserve mistrust?
I guess? But when ads get that obnoxious, it just makes me dislike the product.
Hulu ads have made me hate everything I see on it.
Was it Jurassic World where they basically had an in movie commercial for Jeep or BMW?

Funnily enough, I looked up self awareness vs parody, and the first movie based article specifically addressed those two movies.

To summarize, parodies show why those things being parodied are dumb, while self awareness is embracing the tropes while not taking itself seriously. Which answers my question.
