Demolition Man was CLEARLY a satire of both 1990's style political correctness and 1980's movie violence.  There were some obvious lapses in plausibility of the great social change (and the museum with LIVE AMMO)...

But all these things pale in comparison to Sylvester Stallone's completely serious and straight-faced use of the words: "Hunka-Chunka" as a euphamism for sexual intercourse.  Quite possibly the most hilarious line in film history.

Well put.  In a way, it was an exaggeration of Sly's own situation as an 80's action hero finding himself in the "kinder, gentler" early 90s.

His attempts at comedy were, unfortunately, not well received. I personally though both Demolition Man and Oscar were hilarious.
