Meet the Spartans
The heroic Leonidas, armed with nothing but leather underwear and a cape, leads a ragtag group of thirteen Spartans to defend their homeland against the invading Persians (whose ranks include Ghost Rider, Rocky Balboa, the Transformers, and a hunchbacked Paris Hilton). No one is safe when the Spartans take on the biggest icons in pop culture! From TMDB

unlabelledView post →To all current X (formerly Twitter employees) Hi everyone, sorry I know you were all expecting Christmas bonuses this year but Elon saw the 2008 film “Meet the Spartans” and laughed so hard at Carmen Electra’s character name ‘Julia Caesboobs’ that he spent 27 billion dollars buying the rights to it
unlabelledView post →One of the weird things around the NAKED GUN discourse is misremembering the "Movie" Movies (EPIC MOVIE, DATE MOVIE, MEET THE SPARTANS) as the only spoofs of the 2000s and not beloved films like WALK HARD, ANCHORMAN, ZOOLANDER, TALLADEGA NIGHTS, and DODGEBALL which were also killing it but died.

unlabelledView post →If you think I'm just making this shit up 'cause I'm 'too woke' or whatever, please remember the amount of jokes people made at the expense of Snyder's 300, not a very 'accurate' movie to be sure, and even still. It was even a major fucking joke in the parody movie 'Meet the Spartans'!
unlabelledView post →"Parody and spoof movies have fallen out of favor in recent years, but they were popular in the 1980s and had a resurgence in the 2000s. This was the era of box office hits like Scary Movie and Meet the Spartans." #offbeat #odd #movies collider.com/worst-parody...
unlabelledView post →was going to pick the most cringe movie of that year but The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, Tropic Thunder, Superhero Movie, Pineapple Express, Meet the Spartans, Far Cry (Uwe Boll directing of course) and Twilight all came out the same year it turns out

unlabelledView post →Meet the Spartans may not be the funniest movie but goddamn if it didn’t awaken something in me! I remember this man VIVIDLY making my pants tingle
unlabelledView post →Interesting reading the list of films that Scary Movie 6 intends to spoof. Film might be great, but my feeling remains if you're referencing other films over writing jokes, you're on the path to Epic Movie/Date Movie/Meet The Spartans etc.
unlabelledView post →Watching Meet the Spartans Had to google if you could give a movie zero stars on Letterboxd.
unlabelledView post →Film you've watched more than six times with a gif Meet The Spartans is a janky guilty pleasure, its something you watch when you've had a really bad day
unlabelledView post →Stupid idea, watching all of those shitty "_____ movie" parodies Scary Movie, Epic Movie, Disaster Movie, Meet the Spartans, that one Twilight one
unlabelledView post →This is from the 2009 parody movie 'Meet the Spartans' which is a must watch!!! (Parody of 300)
unlabelledView post →Kevin Sorbo, star of Meet the Spartans, has strong opinions about historical accuracy in movie depictions of Ancient Greece.
unlabelledView post →Describing It Chapter 2 as one of the "worst films ever" is wild when you live in a world with 5 God's Not Dead movies, Meet The Spartans, Movie 43, and Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li 🤷♂️
unlabelledView post →yesss, lost media seen only in glimpses through bits in a Genre Movie. Meet the Spartans featuring an actor who is clearly supposed to be David Duchovny in a sewer drain who whispers your mother's name and looks right at you. nobody remembers what it's a reference to
unlabelledView post →24 - Meet the Spartans (2008) Quite possibly the worst film I've ever seen in my life and I may never forgive @pipthebadger.bsky.social for having me see it.
unlabelledView post →I would have said “these movies will usually hit on like 1 thing where you have to laugh” but after watching Disaster Movie, Meet The Spartans, Vampires Suck, Superfast and Date movie I know that is untrue
unlabelledView post →From what I can find this would be Spy Hard Scary Movie and sequels Date Movie Epic Movie Meet the Spartans Disaster Movie Vampires Suck The Starving Games Best Night Ever Superfast
unlabelledView post →I’ve only heard that it’s Epic Movie and Meet the Spartans levels of lazy and bad
unlabelledView post →The star of Meet the Spartans has strong opinions about historical accuracy in movie depictions of Ancient Greece.
unlabelledView post →#deadpoolandwolverine is literally a parody of a movie rather than an actual movie. Like 300 - movie and Meet The Spartans - the parody.
unlabelledView post →Meet The Spartans, a film I'm cursed to have seen in the cinema, was 83 minutes *with* credits, bloopers, a post-movie musical number and the inclusion of a large chunk of the Leave Britney Alone video (not a parody of it, just the video itself playing on a screen)
unlabelledView post →The most damning part of this isn’t even shit like catturd or libs of tiktok, it’s how big of a circle Kevin Sorbo has TWENTY FIVE YEARS after Hercules and Xena went off the air. This man’s last non-direct-to-dvd Christian movie was MEET THE SPARTANS. WHO IS LISTENING TO HIM TALK?
unlabelledView post →Meet the Spartans. I was a teenager, and it's the first time I ever considered walking out of a movie due to quality. By the time I figured I would, the movie ended.
unlabelledView post →There's this parody movie of 300, called Meet The Spartans. Its parody is, unironically, an accurate analogy to this shit
unlabelledView post →Welcome to BlueSky, where the man behind Rex Kwon Do and Hoss Delgado accurately fact checks the vice president of the United States on Spartan culture. Fun fact, he also featured in the Friedberg and Seltzberg movie Meet the Spartans as the parody of the Dominic West character from 300.
unlabelledView post →I've never seen DATE MOVIE, EPIC MOVIE, VAMPIRES SUCK, MEET THE SPARTANS, or any of those spoof movies that are considered among the worst films that cinema has ever produced. Last night, out of sheer curiosity, I watched half an hour of THE STARVING GAMES. It's.....yes, it's pretty frickin' bad.
unlabelledView post →We need to talk about the cultural disparity surrounding the Worst Films Of All Time™, where Hollywood will nominate something like Meet the Spartans but the weakest Bollywood film has a guy flipping trucks with tree trunks, firing rockets & shooting while using a circling motorbike as a shield
unlabelledView post →i have long held that the era of comedy movies that was inundated with slop like Meet the Spartans or any of the other Friedberg and Setzer movies, is one of the darkest times for funny movies in the history of film
unlabelledView post →I think hes mistaking his movoe with Meet the Spartans "High fives with the ladies, ioen mouth kisses with the dudes" ^now THAT is a line worthy of the gayest movie imo Not what zack did
unlabelledView post →Meet the Spartans and Epic Movie are really funny, I insist
unlabelledView post →I watched Epic Movie and Meet the Spartans an embarrassing number of times when I was 12
unlabelledView post →The Arrow Video 4K UHD was just announced, so give it a few months... Honestly, I've seen people reappraising EPIC MOVIE and MEET THE SPARTANS. That's how bad things have gotten.
unlabelledView post →Hell, let's ignore the right wing dog whistles... this film just looks BAD. There was only a single joke that was funny in the trailer ("Why only half-gay?") and it has a "Meet the Spartans" feel of "we just throw everything at the screen and pray it sticks"

unlabelledView post →There's something so funny to me about going to a movie like The 40 Year Old Virgin or Meet the Spartans and seeing a bunch of my friends having it marked as watched but not rated or reviewed. It has the same vibe as the pallor of silence that falls on the crowd at a public hanging
unlabelledView post →Just watched Meet the Spartans (2008) which unironically might be the most progressive Hollywood film made in the Bush era
unlabelledView post →I regrettably watched a double-feature of Epic Movie and Meet the Spartans once in college. The latter actually made me chuckle twice, which surprised me as much as anyone else. But that was a MISERABLE afternoon
unlabelledView post →I didn't watch Epic Movie but I have unfortunate memories of watching 'Meet the Spartans' on a sleepover while at school. An even more vafflingly bad movie if, like me, you hadn't actually seen '300' first.

unlabelledView post →Meet the Spartans. Hands down. Nothing more insufferable than watching a “comedy” movie that doesn’t make me laugh in the slightest.
unlabelledView post →hard to pick. Love Guru, Son of the Mask, Epic Movie/Disaster Movie/Meet the Spartans, In the Name of the King, Daredevil, The Happening
unlabelledView post →Meet The Spartans. But since that's so incompetent that it barely counts as a professional movie, I'm going to say The Change-Up, which is kind of Freaky Friday For Men. One guy learns to not respect women, the other guy learns that babies shit in your face and almost fall into blenders a lot
unlabelledView post →Make a Friedberg and Seltzer parody movie? Couldn't be worse than Meet The Spartans. Or all of their other movies. You'd have to overuse the ferret eating balls joke a lot, but you'd make a lot more money than the 5 dollars you used to produce it.
unlabelledView post →Not to mention, of course, that what we end up with could just be another Disaster Movie or Meet the Spartans, where the ratio of references per minute matters more than actually making good jokes. AKA the blueprint for a lot of content creators in the 2000s/2010s.
unlabelledView post →Yeah, the first one made me laugh out loud in the theater (Especially the beehive scene), although a LOT hasn't aged well. The second movie had one or two moments but after that, they were shit...ESPECIALLY the Disaster Movie and Meet the Spartans era.
unlabelledView post →spinoffs like "Epic Movie" and "Meet the Spartans") but bringing back stuff in the vein of Airplane or Mel Brooks would do numbers
unlabelledView post →Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer probably had one of the worst all time runs of movies from 2006 to 2010: Date Movie, Epic Movie, Meet The Spartans, Disaster Movie, and Vampires Suck. Truly deplorable movies and pretty much killed the spoof movie genre after that.
unlabelledView post →Please tell me plenty of people sent him gifs from his hit film “Meet the Spartans” and pointed out that he’s no stranger to gay baiting?
unlabelledView post →#7. Meet The Spartans [2/10] So take the unfunny “social media/modern tech/media” jokes of the Ice Queen in Epic Movie and apply that to the entire premise of this “parody” of 300. I chucked once when one of the guards is killed by a towel whipped at him, that’s it. 🧵9/45
unlabelledView post →I saw The Spirit (2008) in a small, half empty room with a bunch of stupid teenage friends. One of the worst movies I've ever seen. Half the audience got up and left when Samuel L Jackson appears in full Nazi uniform. I can't decide if The Spirit or Meet The Spartans is the worst film I've seen
unlabelledView post →I am cautiously optimistic to see this franchise come back. Between this and Naked Gun, it would be cool if the parody genre could reemerge... ... just keep Friedberg and Seltzer as far away from a film budget as possible. We don't need Meet the Spartans: Legacy 😬
unlabelledView post →I think similar is a stretch. Meet the Spartans etc were “look at this recreation of a currently popular movie or (shudder) meme we’ve recreated”. At least the new Naked Gun crafted original jokes and sight gags unreliant on other properties. Meet the Spartans has a 2% on RT for christ sakes! 🤣
