I haven't clicked on the link, but I'm going to assume it's a trailer of a Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer film. So, if it's directed by those two, yes.

You got it right. Here's a summary.

Iron Man gets hit by a falling cow.
Hannah Montana gets hit by a meteor and dies but not before telling her fans to go buy her two new CDs.
Hulk roars and a wind blows his shorts off.
The Enchanted princess gets hit by a taxi.
Hancock flies up and hits his head on something (notice a pattern here?)
The Sex in the City "women" all walk up all obviously played by men in drag.
The main Sex in the City girl talks about beating a pregnant teenager in her voiceover narration. Then a bad Juno lookalike walks up and fights her and kicks her in the face like that part at the end of the Zohan trailer. Then she says "and this is my baby's foot" *small foot hits her* and then says "taste it" before sticking it in her mouth.

At least it's properly named.

Those movies aren't even really parodies. They're just retarded physical comedy routines with stolen characters. Awful, of course, but is anyone surprised?

By the way, the audience for these movies are the people who wait anxiously the entire week to catch the latest installment of America's Funniest Home Videos.

That show is still on? Seriously?

Airplane! was how many years ago? And certainly not comparable to the modern day trash produced by these clowns.

Funny this is brought up, because I actually DID just see that show again today, while at my grandmother's 80th birthday. After the pool party the few of us remaining went to her condo and my grandcousins (is that a word? Whatever.) started channel surfing, found it and had to watch it. And yes, it appears to be exactly like the description above.

Do you mean 2nd cousins?

My cousins' kids. Whatever they would be called.

My reaction is best symbolized by that gif that got me mod-reviewed. Which also serves as a suggestion for anyone who actually goes to this.

Wow. Wow. Wow.

I wish I worked at a theater now just so I could see what type of idiots actually pay to see this crap.

The difference is that the modern ones aren't actual parodies, they're just movies that throw a bunch of scenes from other movies (actually other movies' trailers) together and then end every scene with a bad slapstick joke or stupid pop culture reference.

The fact that Meet the Spartans actually contained a reference to that "Leave Britney alone!" moron is enough proof only a complete idiot could like it. Imagine watching that in 20 years and anyone getting that "joke". It won't happen.

BTW Ehead, take note of what idiots are going to see Death Race this weekend.

That movie embarrasses me as I would've loved to have seen it 10 years ago. Damn my idiotic 14-year old self.
