On balance I reckon you should keep it that way. I somehow got dragged along to see Epic Movie when it first came out in cinemas and it is the worst film I’ve ever seen by a country mile.
The first one was good, the second is also pretty good. The third has some moments but they pretty quickly nosedived in budget and quality. I don’t think a single one of the other genres was worth even revisiting out of morbid curiosity.
Oh man, if you haven’t watched one since then, you missed the whole run and eventual fall of parody movies that propped up in the late '90’s & early '00’s. Not that they were as good as Airplane, but it was a fun ride till it sucked.
Personally I enjoyed the first few movies in the Scary Movie series, Not another teen movie, and Don’t be a menace to south central while drinking your juice.
But then we get to stupid crap like Epic Movie and Disaster Movie and Superhero Movie. All entirely forgettable and just trying to cash in on the success that the Wayans brothers had with the original Scary movies
Honestly you haven’t missed much, but there are a few movies in that genre I still go back to every now and then.
It was more of a joke - I have seen those 90s-2000s parodies. They were somewhat funny at the time but I don’t think there’s an audience for them today. But I guess we’ll see?
Are parody movies still a thing? I haven’t watched one since Airplane.

Still a thing? Not really. But as mentioned, there was definitely a lot worth seeing after Airplane!
Great:
Worth watching:
