Stupid movies that were great

[GagHalfrunt]

Almost anything made by Monty Python - Life of Brian, Holy Grail, etc.


Almost anything made by Mel Brooks - Blazing Saddles, Airplane, Naked Gun, and Young Frankenstein (kicking myself for having to go back and add that last one)

You should be kicking yourself for thinking that Mel was involved in the Airplane! and Naked Gun series.

My favorite stupid movie of all time Galaxy Quest. Highly recommended if you haven't seen it.

Next would be Night at the Roxbury.

Not Another Teen Movie cracks me up everytime. The only good spoof out there in my opinion.

 

[SamQuint]

Galaxy Quest is awesome, love that movie.
Big Trouble in Little China, also another great one.

how about
Dude Where's My Car?

 

[Texashiker]

No love for the Bruce Campbell movies?

The Evil Dead
Evil Dead II
Army of Darkness

 

[Iron Woode]

Strange Brew
Airplane!
Phantom of the Paradise
Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid

I think the winner of this question is Big Trouble in Little China.

Love that movie but if someone never saw it before and watched it today, it's a pretty silly movie.

That was the first movie I thought of when I saw the thread title. It's one of my all time favorite stupid movies. It hasn't gotten old in 25 years of watching it.

My favorite stupid movie of all time Galaxy Quest. Highly recommended if you haven't seen it.

I wouldn't really describe Galaxy Quest as a stupid movie - it's a very well-made brilliant parody of Star Trek.

Cannonball Run

 

[LookBehindYou]

Three Amigos!

 

[SamQuint]

[Thump553]

Earth Girls Are Easy was a true classic and had a great cast (Jim Carrey, Damon Wayans and the then-husband and wife team of Geena Davis and Jeff Goldblum.

Came in here to post Mars Attacks, but the OP got that out of the way quickly.

Teeth is on another level of stupidity, and is hilarious. Mars Attacks is definitely a MUCH better movie though.

Robin Hood, men in tights.
Weekend at Bernie's (not sure if it counts as stupid)

 

[BurnItDwn]

Bill and Ted was the 1st that came to mind. I disapprove of "station", but otherwise, both movies were thoroughly hillarious.

Anchorman is epic funtime!

I'd argue that all Mel Brooks movies are in fact not at all stupid, and Nothing Monty Python is really stupid either. Holy Grail, Spaceballs, etc are all brilliant with great stories. They just happen to have stupid characters....
