Default Scary Movie Series/Spoofs in general?

Alright so I thought of this thread after seeing Scary Movie for the first time in a while. While watching it I just wondered, where did it all go wrong? Being completely honest, I tried to find something wrong with it, I really did. But really, I found the first one to be brilliant. I love how spot on it is with spoofing 90s horror films, and I love the exaggerated and cliche characters and ridiculous plot twists. I didn't find it any less funny than I did the first time I saw it. Sure a few jokes fall flat and it does push the limit a little bit with the gross-out humor, but in general the movie really was funny. It reminded me a lot of "Don't Be a Menace To South Central" (which I also liked) but honestly thought was better. Scary Movie 2 I didn't feel the same way about, it wasn't bad but it was watchable. Scary Movie 3 was pretty awful, and Scary Movie 4 was horrendous. The series really went downhill after the Wayans Brothers quit. Then there's the spin-offs, god help me. Epic Movie is incredibly bad and Disaster Movie is one of the worst films I've ever seen. Meet The Spartans I've never seen and neither have I seen Date Movie. Now this thread really isn't about some of the classic spoof films (Airplane, Spaceballs) but just the films that are related to the Scary Movie spoof films. What are your opinions on them?
