Oh, Jay. I guess you weren't deep enough to desconstruct the work. All the movies actually build up to an Oedipal drama where the Signifier/Signified is transmogrified in a stunt comedy, but the meaning is so powerful.
You should read "Police Academy: A semiotic interpretation", by F. de Saussure and M. Helland, 1903.
