my problem with these "spoof" movies is that they're barely even spoofing any of the source material at all--it's not witty, nor does it work as commentary on vampire movies. it's just a bunch of random pop culture references or stupid playful gags thrown in to be silly, but it's not even really funny

what did britney spears have to do with 300, or lady gaga have to do with vampires? it sounds more like a joke at lady gaga's expense that it does at a vampire movie's

the reason scary movie 1 was entertaining was you could see how they're making fun of the cliches that go on in most scary movies, and when i saw "meet the spartans" i was just, where were the jokes, it was just a bunch of pop culture references like britney spears, you got served, that nerd chick with the braces as the oracle, and it wasn't even in any funny kind of context, it was more like a parent trying to point to his children that he knows all about what's going on in the pop culture world and that's just insulting and patronizing
