I thought Hot Shots 2 was the winner in this category. (sorry, couldn't find non-dubbed version)

First thing I thought of when I saw the thread title. Thanks for finding it so I didn't have to.

Oh, and the French is fine, since it's Hot Shots, Part Deux.

Really? Have you seen the first one? They're both pure silly fun, spoofing all the great action genres.

He's right, Ducimus. You're totally missing out on pure silly fun.

Aye, Duci your missing a good film. If you like the kind of humor like in Airplane! for example, you'll like Hot Shots. HS 1 is more or less about Top Gun and HS 2 is about Rambo 2.

But plenty of them were non-humans, so they don't count.

Happened off screen with no bloody closeups in slow motion. Does not count.

They were vaporized by a beam traveling at the speed of light, there was nothing too see.

Except of course for the part that is about Dances With Wolves.

Gotta love the bit by Rowan Atkinson.

Haha, that's hilarious!

Atkinson: You don't understand. I can't walk... they've tied my shoelaces together.
Sheen: A knot... Bastards!

The President got his moments too.

President Thomas 'Tug' Benson: Here's the target area.
Gerou: That's Minnesota, sir.
President Thomas 'Tug' Benson: Damn it, man, that's the genius of my plan. Why go over there to fight? We can do it right here at home, and get in some good fishing while we're at it.
Gerou: Sir, the enemy is over there.
President Thomas 'Tug' Benson: Then we'll fly them over here. Their families too. We'll teach them to skate... Do I have to think of everything?
