I really appreciate the edits on these videos. So many other reactions channels just do random automated-cuts which results in punchlines being cut mid-sentence or the best scenes being omitted altogether. It must've taken quite a bit of time to go through and find all the best bits and trim around those scenes, rather than lazily butchering the whole reaction by doing fixed-interval cuts every few seconds. I appreciate the effort! It makes your reactions so much more enjoyable to watch.
I was 6 when this came out on HBO, almost a year after it hit the theaters. But it was only PG, because the PG-13 rating had not yet been created in the US, so we watched it as a family. I grew up watching reruns of “Andy Griffith Show” and “Leave It To Beaver”, so when Barbara Billingsly, who played June Cleaver, was speaking jive, my dad lost it, and 6-year old me lost it when he did.
When they show the instrument panel of the plane, a lot of reactors don’t realize it’s a joke. These two got the joke. Kudos for them. They also got the Kramer walking through the mirror joke as well. Very few people noticed that. I never noticed it until I read the comments years ago. It went over my head too.
I think of the double sunglasses joke as being echoed in “Barbi.” My friends and I still say, “Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit [fill in the blank].” Whenever I get into the back seat of a car, I say to the people in front, “I just wanna tell you both, good luck. We’re all counting on you.”
@@anime_cyko IMDB Triva said they actually hired the two voice actors who did the real pre-recorded announcements for LA International Airport to do the red & white zone voices. Hilarious!
The actor that played Jimmy was a friend of the Zucker brothers and he wasn't given a script and was told to improv everything. The "Leon is getting larger" joke was from a commercial on a local tv channel for a mattress dealership that most of the cast found annoying, so he thought it be funny to do the start of the commercial.
Leslie Nielsen's excellent deadpan delivery in this movie was what revitalised his acting career, this time as a comedy actor. In an interview he once said something along the lines of, "I've been delivering very silly dialogue with a straight face for many years. The only difference now is that it's silly _on purpose."_
It was much funnier in 1980. The lady translating jive played the iconic 50's mom in the sitcom "Leave it to Beaver". The guy in the taxi was Howard Jarvis, whose political agenda was fiscal responsibility, and was responsible for California Prop 13, that cut property taxes. When the woman says "He never has a second cup of coffee at home", that was from a coffee commercial where she figures out she's serving the wrong brand of coffee. They used to clean your windshields and check your oil while your car was being filled with gas, which is what JJ Walker (breakout sitcom star, catch phrase 'Dy-NO-mite) was doing, and the thing he gave them was how credit cards were processed. Airports were populated by people asking for donations, mainly religious groups. "Win one for the Gipper" was Ronald Reagan's famous line from a movie about Notre Dame football. Before this, Leslie Nielsen was a dramatic actor, he was cast to be ironically funny, and it elevated his career beyond what it was before by being a comedic actor. I watch this with my kids about 20 years ago, and had to stop it / rewind it many times to explain or point out the jokes.
The great thing about this movie was the fact they had so many serious actors from the 40s and 50s, playing major roles seriously, and not for laughs. Which is why it's so funny. Lloyd Bridges, Robert Stacks, and Leslie Nelsen were all Lead Men in one movie or another, with Nelsen being the only actor to have one major Lead Actor role in the Sci-Fi classic, Forbidden Planet. Robert Stacks would later go on to voice Ultra Magus in the animated movie The Transformers the movie, along side Leonard Nimoy, Orson Wells, and Judd Nelson in 1984. Of course Nimoy would later play another Transformer, Revenge of the Fallen
No one watches the credits (there are some gags in there too) which also means no one ever sees the post-credit scene. Others may have done it earlier, but this was the first time I had ever seen iy done.
Lt Zipper pep talk was a reference to a 1940 movie..Knute Rockne:All American about legendary Notre Dame coach..Knute Rockne..Ronald Reagan played football player George Gipp..nicknamed The Gipper..dying of cancer..told the coach..when the going gets tough and the boys are up against it..tell them to give it everything they’ve got and win one for The Gipper…(real life legendary pep talk in the Notre Dame football locker room)For many years Notre Dame was the best team in America..the coach was killed in a plane crash in a,Kansas cornfield in 1930..college,football passing the ball began with them..
Jeff and Beau Bridges; actually! Lloyd Bridges has 2 famous acting sons. In fact; Jeff and Beau starred together with Michelle Pfeiffer in The Fabulous Baker Boys
The sports movie parodied was Knute Rockne All American, which had the line" win one for the Gipper". The music was from the movie, too. Hoosier was later.
In 1920, George Gipp was a star college football player at Notre Dame. When he was gravely ill, he told his coach when the team wasn’t doing so well, to tell them to win one for the Gipper. Gipper was his nickname. Airplane is paying homage to the movie Knute Rockne: all American which made the phrase “when one for the Gipper“ very famous.
A character portrayed by Ronald Reagan, which makes the Reagan joke even funnier. He was elected President of the U.S. a few months after this was released, but had been campaigning for nearly two years. About 20 years prior he had actually been the president of the Screen Actors Guild, so the Reagan jokes were a way of throwing him a bone.
Lots of jokes appear all the time. The sound of airplane engines with jet engines sounds like propeller engines, for example. Despite the speed, rain is shown running down the windows.
Yes! The second part of AIRPLANE! That shout at the end took me offguard (is that how you write it?). Anyway, I just want to tell both of you "Good luck", we're counting on you.
The win one for the Zipper. Is referring to a Ronald Reagan movie where he played a role in. The actual line from this movie is “ Let’s win one for the Gipper.” It’s a movie about a famous American football player.
The film is called Knute Rockney All American. A must-watch classic. The music from that scene is the fight song if Notre Dame University where that film is set.
I've yet to see a reviewer recognize the doctor's speech being from an old Ronald Reagan (the Gipper) movie about Notre Dame (hence the Notre Dame fight song in the background).
@6:41 The bad guy’s secretary assassin in Naked Gun, David and Jerry’s Mom, Mrs. Zucker. She’s also in BASEketball amongst their other works. Top Secret and Kentucky Fried Movie are funny.
You'll want to avoid "Airplane 2: the sequel", made by different creative team, its a poor imitation. 1984-Top Secret - would be the creators next theatrical project.
@@mildredpierce4506 The last time I was in LAX was 1999. Most of my airline travel was at the turn of the century, and I never really saw that at any of the NYC airports or Washington National or Pittsburgh.
So many gags, you had to live in that era. "Jim never has a second cup at home." A ripoff of a popular commercial. The sick lady with the eggs has "The Bird Flu" a common illness at the time. I speak Jive lady, June Clever from "Leave it to Beaver" & the most wholesome mother in America. Cab Politician - famous for cutting wasteful spending. Sound is a prop plane, not a jet. & So much more. & The entire movie is almost a copy of another movie "Zero Hour" that is not a comedy.
It took me forever to get the joke with the horse, but then again, I'm not from an English speaking country, nor is English my first language. So it's funny when English speakers don't get the joke. She has a studmuffin over while her husband is away, or a stud for short.
It's really not that complicated. 1) She's cheating on her husband. 2) Her paramour is literally "hung like a horse" It's not really a language based joke.
@@jamesfischer2427 No, it's more a cultural one. Which makes it so funny if people from a country with the culture don't get it 🙂 But having an in on the use of the language does help.
NEWS FLASH!!!! (OK 40 YEAR OLD NEWS FLASH)Otto the inflatable automatic pilot faked eating the fish and deflated so he could get some from elaine. The guy in the taxi dies waiting in there so long, He gets to the line at the gates of heaven and says: "well I'll give this line 20 minutes...." Dead gramma who hung herself in this movie says to the taxi passinger: "you better make that 20 years the way this line is moving"

Thank you so much! We appreciate you noticing!
And they don't have the stupid same 10 meme's in every video like others...
I watch a bunch of Reactors, but only ones who do proper editing. I don't know why anyone watches reactions that are just randomized chunks like that.
Agreed 💯
Just glad someone finally noticed the mirror gag.
Mrs. Cleaver speaking jive was the funniest moment of my young childhood.
I was 6 when this came out on HBO, almost a year after it hit the theaters. But it was only PG, because the PG-13 rating had not yet been created in the US, so we watched it as a family. I grew up watching reruns of “Andy Griffith Show” and “Leave It To Beaver”, so when Barbara Billingsly, who played June Cleaver, was speaking jive, my dad lost it, and 6-year old me lost it when he did.
Very few reactors get the “ altogether” joke. It goes completely over their heads.
So many people miss the mirror gag. Its one of my favorite.
miss the very ending where the guy in the cab says i will give him 20 more minutes
Reading the actual credits is fun too...😊

A joke most miss from not reading the credits: the inflatable doll was named Otto. Otto pilot.
Yeah I can’t believe I missed it the first five times I saw the movie. Otto pilot
@@anime_cyko IMDB Triva said they actually hired the two voice actors who did the real pre-recorded announcements for LA International Airport to do the red & white zone voices. Hilarious!
I hated the Jimmy character at first too. But over subsequent rematches, he's become a favourite. Give the poor fella another chance.
The actor that played Jimmy was a friend of the Zucker brothers and he wasn't given a script and was told to improv everything. The "Leon is getting larger" joke was from a commercial on a local tv channel for a mattress dealership that most of the cast found annoying, so he thought it be funny to do the start of the commercial.
Yea, he almost ruined the movie.
You missed my favorite joke about the RadarRange which was the first commercially availible Microwave Oven.
The film succeeds by having the actors play it straight with all the humor in the background
Rex Kramer was Robert Stack, most famous to anyone under the age of 50 as the host of _Unsolved Mysteries._
Leslie Nielsen's excellent deadpan delivery in this movie was what revitalised his acting career, this time as a comedy actor.
In an interview he once said something along the lines of, "I've been delivering very silly dialogue with a straight face for many years. The only difference now is that it's silly _on purpose."_
there was a post credit scene of the taxi
"I'll Give'em Another 20 Minutes but That's It!"
Fun fact: If you have watched Breaking Bad, that is good ol’ Mike Ehrmantraut at 14:26.
Who is also a cast member later on in Community

Thumbs down for the Johnny hate!
Yeah, that was kind of surprising. Most people think he's funny.
On the contrary - that role figur did nit add anything whatsoever to the film; just a nuisance.
Johnny is one of my favourites! I still quote some of his lines.
@@Vinterfrid Yes he did. He added comedy. Which is a good thing to have...in a comedy.
@WaveGazer he added zero comedy.
Wow! Nobody ever notices the Kramer-through-the-mirror shot.

...which incidentally had Ronald Reagan in it... referenced earlier with the sick egg woman.
Notre Dame Football fight song

Johnny is one of the funniest characters in this. No way annoying.
You can't be serious.
Notice that the plane sounds like a prop engine type instead of jet? 😅

Maaan, y’all are trippin’ Johnny is hilarious 😂 actually your disdain for him is even funnier
No, he's a disaster in the film. Just annoying.
Almost ruined the movie. He is the Jar Jar Binks of Airplane.
If the plane were at 35000 ft and dropped 1000 ft per second, that's about 680mph downward motion. The plane would hit the ground in 35 seconds.
Yes! The second part of AIRPLANE! That shout at the end took me offguard (is that how you write it?).
Anyway, I just want to tell both of you "Good luck", we're counting on you.

You'll want to avoid "Airplane 2: the sequel", made by different creative team, its a poor imitation. 1984-Top Secret - would be the creators next theatrical project.
It's interesting that so many people find the plug pulling guy annoying, to me he always was the funniest part of this movie...
He annoyed me too. He has more lines in airplane two.
he is funny
From the wizard of az
Great movie
Hendo and Dean, Now that you have watched and reacted to this film, you should do the same with its lesser loved but still funny sequel, Airplane 2!
it must be a boeing jet everything is briken
The editing and banter are top-tier.
As always when it comes to these two!
Thank you so much!
Other movies I think you might like:
The Ref
Waking Ned Devine
Midnight in the garden of good and evil
Sunset Boulevard
Snow dogs
The ZAZ team also worked on the _Hot Shots!_ movies. However, I'd say _BASEketball_ was the past good movie they did.
This movie is a great example of unrelenting silliness.
If you did not read all the closing credits, you did not watch the full movie. There are jokes in the closing credits plus one additional scene.
LAX is really the only airport I've seen with that many people offering religious tracts and soliciting donations.
That was over 40 years ago. You don’t see that now. Back then there wasn’t all the security you have now.
