Bugs Bunny far surpassed It Happened One Night. His manner of speaking, saying “doc,” and his obsession with carrots are a direct parody of Clark Gable’s character from that movie, but modern audiences don’t realize he’s a parody at all and instead assume the carrot thing it based on rabbits’ real dietary preferences.

Weird Al's White And Nerdy, so much better than Ridin Dirty.
Airplane parodying the airliner movies like Zero Hour
Dr Strangelove parodying atomic terror movies like Fail Safe
Dr Strangelove parodying atomic terror movies like Fail Safe
I legit didn't know it was parodying something else. I thought it was just gallows humour.
Nobody watches the other airliner movies, but at least with Airplane! you know you're watching a parody.
Edit: Per other people in this thread, apparently not.

Kung pow: enter the fist
Steve Oedekerk, the writer/star of King pow: enter the fist, is amazing in every way - especially if you were consuming media in the 90s. He
- wrote and directed when nature calls
- cowrote the nutty professor
- wrote including Patch Adams
- wrote Nutty Professor II: The Klumps - wrote and directed Bruce Almighty
- created thumbnation
- executive produced Jimmy Neutron and his studio gave us two Jimmy Neutron movies
I weirdly dislike most of these things. Nature calls was fine.
Still glad people found joy in his work though. Obviously talented.

Not really a parody but "happy but beats 2 and 4 are swapped."
The truth is this: oof!
Just listened to it, I elfe keli eninglist ot ti kebro ym inbra
This does not fit the criteria so im sorry in advance, but it reminded me of the "Somebody That I Used To Know" song and that there is a really cool "5 people 1 guitar" cover that has 200M views which is a good 8% of the original video with 2.4B views.
They actually use 9 hands on that guitar (10 if you consider the one holding the top end)

r/TheDonald. If I remember right, it started as a meme sub before he actually ran, then it was overtaken by actual supporters.

Cunk - parodying Attenborough and cosmos style docs
Starship troopers - more of an active ignorance of source material

Gintama.
Took me a while to realize the whole post-war samurai living in an era of peace premise was just Kenshin but with aliens.
Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen is a satire of Gothic novels in general, and The Mysteries of Udolpho by Ann Radcliffe in particular. Several others are referenced by name in the story and for many of them it's probably the only reason they are even remembered today.
