    Wish I could tell you off the top of my head, but if anyone is fond of badly aged comedy films (or just talking about them) there’s this great podcast/YT channel called This Aged Great focusing on 70s 80s & 90s films.

    Edit:

    • I think American Pie is a bit weird, not thwt funny given the subject matter, and contains really unpleasant elements
    • Some of the high school movies of early 2000s were leaning into the template set up by their famous 80s predecessors, but i think people understood that the 80s films were purposefully trope-y. Whereas for the 2000s movies, they were treating it with reverence and it was like an unpleasant commitment to keeping alive a situation which had only ever existed in the real of fiction
