I don't know what to call the first genre. Examples would include entertainment product like DATE NIGHT, BRIDESMAIDS, THE OTHER GUYS. Writers spend a couple of hours in an office just throwing out random ideas until the marker board is full. Then they call in the Old Pro to stitch it together into a script. If it needs padding he just repeats some skits.
Second would be the fake art film, titles that have built-in respectability regardless of their merits. THE SHIPPING NEWS, maybe CHOCOLAT.
Third: comic books, superheroes; a little goes a long way.
