Kung Pao is one of the dumbest and most underrated comedies. It's not exactly sci-fi, but it does have aliens and intelligent cows.

I watched it over ten times, and I don't regret a second.

*Kung Pow: Enter the Fist. I loved it when it came out but I'm afraid to watch it now for fear that it doesn't hold up. But I will always laugh at the way the lady picks up the baby and rolls it down the rest of the hill. "So cute"

I think it holds up, especially if you watch the original movie it was based on.

I thought Kung-Pow used scenes from a handful of different old films with the same actors (like Betty).

It's all pretty much from the same ridiculous kung-fu movie, as far as I could tell. There's even some similarity in the plot.
