It actually is brilliant in its comedic presentation! Satiric? Tongue in cheek? Mockery? Inspiring? It's all of that and more! Not ridiculous at all. Sublime!
The opening of The Spy Who Loved Me. After a rather epic ski chase with semi-automatic weapons, Bond heads for a mountain cliff with a quite evident long drop. He soars in the sky and in his descent, he kicks off his skis. Bond pulls a ripcord. The parachute emerges, a Union Jack.
Mission: Impossible 2 - Ethan Hunt and Sean Ambrose collide mid-air. It's like jousting. But, with motorcycles. And fists. We love it and make fun of it. It's totally epic.
The Blues Brothers cop car crash scene.
Pitch meeting: "Okay, guys. We cooould crash a couple of cars, but what if we crashed like fifteen."
"Oh and do it in the middle of downtown Chicago."
"Brilliant!!"

Hooper... Burt Reynolds’s ridiculously unrealistic jet car jump. Over the top, stupid, old school awesomeness.
And the winner is Montgomery Creative with Hooper. Congratulations, MC, you get to choose Monday's question.
