Topic: Parody Movies, Tv Shows, & Anime
This week, we're reminiscing and remembering plenty of strange and fun Parody shows. The Idea hit me that we're probably all running out of shows and movies to watch, so why not stuff that makes fun of other stuff, and what's more nerdy than parody and satire?
Definition of a Parody, Spoof, Homage, or Satire:
A work that is created to Imitate, Make fun of, and/or comment on an original work. This is often done via satirical or ironic imitation.
Satire is when you mock people for their short comings, faults, or vices.
Irony is when someone does or says something that is the opposite of what we expect them to do or mean.
Example:
Satire – In Galaxy Quest, the actors recoil and act on their cowardly instincts for survival upon first entering and visiting the ship of Galaxy Quest.
Irony – In Little Mermaid, Ariel gives up her voice for legs so that she can meet and fall in love with Eric. But Eric doesn’t recognize her without her voice, and thus, is still looking for his love.
