Line 190:
* ''Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer'' parodies [[Hillbilly Horrors]].
* [[Flubber]] and [[Inspector Gadget (film)|Inspector Gadget]] parodies anything from Disney.
* [[Woody Allen]] parodied genres like '70s sci-fi (''[[Sleeper]]'') and epic historical romances (''[[Love and Death]]''). A section of ''[Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Sex (But Were Afraid to Ask)]]'' parodied Italian film making.
* "I'll Make a Man Out of You" from ''[[Mulan]]'' would be an Affectionate Parody of a [[Boot Camp Episode]].

== [[Professional Wrestling]] ==
* [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] wrestler Gregory Helms's former character, The Hurricane, was an Affectionate Parody of [[Superhero]]es, especially [[Superman]] and the [[Adam West]] [[Batman]]. His character previous to that was an Affectionate Parody of comic-book ''fanboys'', as he trotted out his encyclopedic knowledge of the [[Green Lantern]] and compared situations from the comic to everything he came across in his wrestling career (in fact, his costume as Hurricane was heavily influenced by the costume worn by Kyle Rayner as the [[Green Lantern]]).
* The [[Lay Cool]] characters were affectionate parodies of the [[Alpha Bitch]] with them being fashion obsessed, finishing each other's sentences, their own [[Buffy-Speak]] catchphrases and a whole lotta [[Les Yay]]. And they were still some of the best written heels on Smackdown.
