I Liked It When I Saw It The First Time, Entries Beginning with Y

This page is inspired by the comedy of David Spade. Yes, David Spade. During his stay on Saturday Night Live, he would occasionally put things down that seemed to copy things before them by saying something like "I liked 'Black Sheep' the first time I saw it, when it was called 'Tommy Boy'". So this is my attempt at ranking on the movies and television programs of the nineties (and present) by pointing out what they copied from the eighties. Since there always seems to be a lot or unoriginal ideas in Hollywood, this should be an easy page to fill up quickly.

I liked "Yo Mamma" when it was called Dirty Dozens from In Living Color
You Mamma is a blatant ripoff of the Dirty Dozens sketches from In Living Color, which was a mock game show featuring Yo Mamma jokes.
I liked "You Got Served" when it was called Breakin'
Same moves, different decade.
I liked "You Got Served " when it was called Beat Street or Breakin'
All three of these films both deal with street dancing, but Beat Street and Breakin are still the best movies about the subject.
