I think @protist was close with the Night of the Lepus suggestion, but I think a different movie about a bunch of rabbits may actually be more thematically fitting.
Watership Down
A small group of people/rabbits breaking off from a very large group. Forewarning bad things happening in the larger group that they are fleeing. Attempting to invite others to join them along the way to increase their numbers to a sustainable level. Conflict with another group of domineering authoritarians.
It’s all there.

Is there a movie about Marxist nerds yelling at libs? I’d watch it if so

High Hopes by Mike Leigh seems like it at least partially checks that box.

Napoleon Dynamite, or something equally “short breath of laughter” funny and completely nonsensical.
9 monthsThere is a Canadian movie called “Beans”, but it’s a drama…
Based on true events, Tracey Deer’s debut feature chronicles the 78-day standoff between two Mohawk communities and government forces in 1990 Quebec.
And of course there’s the documentary about Lemmy Kilmister that is called - lo and behold: “Lemmy”

What movie is this from? I’m thinking Mad Men, but that’s just a guess.
Thanks.

Stanley Kubrick’s Full Metal Jacket. The scene is pretty good, the film is weird because it’s basically two films. The first is their bootcamp, the second is their experience in Vietnam.

It’s about Air Traffic Control, but I never heard it quoted to the degree that Airplane! was. Although that “Gimme a plane, I’ve got a hole” line got a lot of play. Die Hard 2 was quoted some too, “Rack 'em, stack 'em, and pack 'em!”. But Airplane!?
I know people who speak jive.

I’ll nominate an underdog: Alphaville.
Basically unknown, jerks you back and forth between genres, simultaneously art house and amateur, and the main character is named Lemmy Caution. Sure he’s a government agent, but he’s the good guy out to destroy the mind control computer on a distant planet by pitting daughter against father.
Edit: and I forgot to mention it’s in French.

Man. I really need to start watching movies from the French New Wave. I knew Alphaville was technically a science fiction story, but I didn’t realize how far I to the genre Godard leaned.

Lemmings
Is there a film called Lemmings? Seems a safe bet there is one.

There’s that made up Disney wildlife film of lemmings jumping off a cliff. They were chased off the cliff by the movie makers who said lemmings naturally do this. Seems appropriate.

Given the general social aptitude of this site I’d say The Perks of Being a Wallflower
