I am a very recent new user, so hope this is not repeating information
already listed:
 
There is a bit in Mel Brooks' SPACEBALLS in which Rick Moranis as the
Death Vader parody character (Dark Hat? something like that) consults a
stock of Mel Brooks' movies on video then watches all of the film
SPACEBALLS on FF up  to and current with the current action of the
film so that he knows what other characters are doing and planning.
The look on Moranis' face is priceless when he tries to explain how it
works to his henchmen.  Later in the movie, Mel Brooks as the Yoda
parody character (Yoghurt?) sells SPACEBALLS tie-in merchandise and insults
the integrity of the movie industry in general.
