The other day I wanted to watch a fun animated movie, and found that I'd never seen a Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles movie that came out in 2007. Downloaded, put it on... and immediately greeted by the weinstien logo... then they had not one but TWO different Asian actors doing lines in the "broken Chinese accent." Kinda ruined the whole movie for me.

Oof yeah that's a rough one
Eurotrip - the whole dvd.
I clicked through rewatching some of it and it’s generically raunchy, like it was trying to outcompete the American Pie movie for sex references and topless women.
Bring It On, which is surprising.
Just a little too much casual rape dismissed as "digits slip."
Shallow Hal is a pretty good contender
Isn't the ultimate message of the movie wholesome though? I've never actually seen it.
The basic message is supposed to be but loses intent because of the fact it's all fat jokes

It is an interesting question. Most comedy ages poorly, often not because it's bad, but because the jokes are built on common assumptions of the era, and some of those are kinda shit.
Main exception being physical comedy. Some of those old silent films are hilarious, and just as funny now as when they came out 😂
City Lights is a great example of this but it is ALSO a great example of the opposite of this, specifically with all the jokes where drunk driving is the punchline
