After watching Link Removed last week and then more recently my wife and I watched Bowfinger it made me think of all the great satirical films based on Hollywood Celebrity/Film Making.
Current TOP 10 LIST:

Get Shorty
I love this film. It's a combination of great writing, directing, and acting.
Link Removed[/url]
The Player
This is a real classic, and while the humor is quite subtle it still gets its point across. This film also has many numerous Hollywood inside jokes which are fun to try and pick up on.

This is the "Caddyshack" for film makers!

An absolute classic and a wonderful send-up of the traditional 20's film studios' environment.

This is a brilliant little gem of a satirical film and a must see for those that enjoy this genre!

I am always surprised how many critics didn't originally pick-up on this film's wonderful satire of film making hidden under the guise of theater.

I have not yet seen this film, but reviews should speak for themselves why this film has made its way onto the list.

Mel Brook's is one of film's greatest satirists and this send-up of the silent film era is a long misunderstood gem.

Blake Edwards has made several wonderful films poking fun at Hollywood and those effected by its environment, but this is certainly his best! This is also one of Peter Seller's best performances as well.

Link Removed
This is a great film, and defines the meaning of "Truth is stranger than fiction".
