David McK (3372 KP) rated Chicken Run (2000) in Movies
May 31, 2021
Aardman Animation's first feature-length production, starring a then-popular Mel Gibson (before he went off the rails quite a bit!) as the voice of an American Rooster who crash-lands in a chicken coop where the inmates are all trying to escape as they all have to lay a certain number of eggs each day or else face the chop.
And yes, it is indeed a - loose - parody of The Great Escape.

David McK (3372 KP) rated Eric: Discworld: The Unseen University Collection in Books
Aug 19, 2023
Early entry in Terry pratchett's Discworld series (I think it's book #9, and the 4th to have Rincewind); a parody of the tale of Faust.
Not Pratchett's best work: it fails to reach the heights he would later achieve in the middle segment of his career (around the time of Lords and Ladies, Maskerade or Soul Music), but having said that a sub-par Pratchett is still better than many other authors operating at their peek!

Top notch animation
Another hit in the LEGO franchise
This is probably one of the best parody movies in recent memory. It is hilarious from start to finish and the voiceover cast is brilliant. I enjoyed the Lego movie more than I thought I would the first time I saw it and I enjoyed this even more. Do yourself a favour, no matter what age you are, give this a watch and I promise you will not regret it.
