This is “The Friedberg-Seltzer Massacre: How Two Men Single-Handedly Destroyed the Parody Genre.” The series, a career retrospective on the works of parody film writer-directors Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, aims to put their heavily maligned work into perspective.

Moreover, can anything good be said for the directors, whose films are widely considered to be some of the worst of all time.
