What movies, books or tv shows are meant to spoof/parody a particular genre while actually being a great example of the genre?
The 3 that come to mind for me are Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The Princess Bride. All three are poking fun at their respective genres but also are great examples of the genre. I'm curious if Lemmy has other such examples.
The more I watch of 'Succession' the more I think it is close to perfect in terms of family/executive drama. It started almost as cringe inducingly funny as say 'The Office' but it has just become amazingly accurate and dramatic. Recommended.
