It was a 2014 release. It was considered a creative gamble, as it differed in style and content from similar movies in the same genre by the same studio. But it paid off and was one of the year's top grossing films and COME ON YOU GUYS KNOW THIS!

I may know the movie, but I'm not getting it from the soundtrack clues.

Based on both that and the vehemence of his post,
it has to be "Guardians of the Galaxy."
(I have GOT to sit down and watch it this upcoming week.)
The title of this movie is an informal name for a particular film genre. The movie itself is a parody of a movie in that genre. The movie being parodied originally had the same name as the parody, but it was changed before release to a reaction from either the characters, the audience, or (if all went well, and it did) both.
Both the movie and the parody spawned multiple sequels, with the parody outnumbering the movie by one.
I'll just assume you have to read that numerous times to even understand what it says. Once you do, I actually suspect you'll find the answer to be... not really that difficult. How many parody movies have a whole bunch of sequels?

Why didn't you say that 2 days ago Mr. Wolf? Your right Rottie, They are pretty good. Makes it tough on me to get my 2 cents in.

I was way off going with "The Terminal", except that it didn't have any articles of clothing in the title. I assume WordWolf is correct, but I'm not familiar with it. But that's not unusual.

Stallone. Also well-known for reprising his Rocky role. I can't see him in Eddie Murphy's role in BHC, though... George

Well, the song is "Hooked on a Feeling." Is that the name of a movie, too?

No. But it's on the soundtrack and was in most of the trailers.

You're probably right. It was full of oldies, though I had no idea its soundtrack sold so well.
And, yes, if you haven't seen it yet, you MUST do so.

Yeah that's it. We do have the music of the movies thread (I probably better should have used it there) but at the time I thought it was a good clue.
Raf's up.

"Scary Movie"? It had a lot of sequels, but it also parodied a number of different films...
