One of the most subtle jokes in this movie, is that the titular Airplane, is a jet engine plane, but they put the sound effects from a like, WW2 propeller powered plane.

Before this movie Leslie Nielsen was mostly in serious movies. After this movie he switched over to comedy roles. Also at 1:17:45 on the video timer that's Mike from Breaking Bad watching the radar screen.

2024-08-30 04:27:20 +0000 UTCThere are lots of movies to springboard from Airplane to. One movie that is absolutely hilarious, that I would wager most haven't seen, is "Top Secret" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvG7kNZXPJE

2024-08-30 00:59:26 +0000 UTCWait. "Airplane" is how you spell it. Is it not spelled the same in Australia? Im confused on why you said it was spelled wrong, that is the correct way to spell it at least in English.

2024-08-29 22:18:17 +0000 UTCafter watching Airplane you must either watch the Youtube comparison of Airplane and Zero Hour or watch the full length movie of Zero Hour. It is the bases of the movie and many scenes are very similar with the script and only added humor or lines for the movie Airplane.

2024-08-29 18:29:09 +0000 UTCAlways fun watching someone see this for the first time. Not every joke holds up, some of them are based on things that just don't really happen anymore (like all the various folks trying to talk to you/hand you things at the airport) so they just come off as strange instead of funny. That said, this movie has one of the highest jokes/bits per minute that I can think of, a comedy classic for a reason.
