43 years later, and it's still one of the funniest movies of all time. When my friends and I saw it in the theater back in 1980, we were laughing so hard at the jive-talking scenes that we were afraid we were going to get thrown out.
Funny movie. What is really good is that all the actors played it straight and no smirks. They must have had a few crackups trying to say those gag lines with a straight face. This film is pure entertainment.

I found him a little too silly. The humour of the other characters comes from taking themselves too seriously, like they are really in a disaster movie.
. I have seen Thousands of comedies spanning from about 1920-2024 and in my mind the absolutely funniest line ever uttered in any movie is, "I guess I picked the wrong Week to quit sniffing glue" from Airplane
The incongruity of an elderly white woman being able to speak jive is funny enough... The fact that the elderly white woman is "America's Mom" Barbara Billingsley makes it hilarious.
When this movie was being made, I was working at a company called MacKenzie Laboratories in Arcadia, California. They made tape-loop message repeaters used at airports, including LAX in Los Angeles. The producers of “Airplane!” contacted MacKenzie’s CEO, Addison Taylor (nicknamed “Doc”), to find out who had recorded the voices on the LAX repeated message that said: “The white zone is for loading and unloading of passengers only. No parking!” It was repeated over and over by two voices, male and female. It happened that Doc (who had been a radio announcer) and his wife Pat had made those recordings-so they ended up being hired to tape the off-color comic dialog between the two voices in the movie. Little did they know at the time that they had played a small, uncredited part in what would become an iconic comic film.
The background story is so cool! My brother is in special effects and tells me these kinds of stories. Every time I go to any airport I always have this dialogue play in my head! Too Cool!
As a pilot, Rex Cramer, taking off his sunglasses to reveal another pair of sunglasses underneath is hilarious. Shame it missed out of being in this clip.
i was 16 when it came out. first movie i ever saw by myself. One of the funniest ever. ive seen many times since. they were so creative. the chemistry of the directing and acting was outstanding.
The funniest parts of this movie was seeing otherwise serious actors like Peter Graves,Lloyd Bridges, Leslie Nielsen and Robert Stack play their parts with so much humor.
"Hey... knock a self a pro, Slick! That gray matter backlot perform us DOWN, I take TCB-in', man!" Don't be so naive, Arthur. Each of us faces a clear moral choice.
One of the funniest movies ever made, i never get tired of watching it, same with top secret, police squad and the naked gun franchise, these movies are still slaying audiences decades after they were made...zaz at their best ♠️

Starts with a slight fever, dryness of the throat. Then the virus starts itching, a rash. Then the victim becomes dizzy. Then the virus penetrates the central nervous system causing severe muscle spasms. Followed by the inevitable drooling. At this point the entire digestive system collapses. By now, the poor bastard becomes a wasted piece of jelly. (Sorry if I missed anything I did this based off of memory)
When I think that Peter Graves refused the role at first, saying he couldn’t do comedy and that they should get a comic actor instead…he was perfect here, mimicking all the symptoms!
All of my humor was developed from 1974-1980- MP and The holy Grail, Blazing Saddles,Young Frankenstein, High Anxiety , Blues Brothers , Animal House, Airplane , Caddy Shack

2 of the best lines....... they were so many
“Sir, maybe we should turn he searchlights on now.”
“No no, that’s just what they’d expect us to do.”
I quote that second line quite often. People over 40 usually get the reference, those younger do not.
What makes this movie comical these actors are serious people who are being down right funny !!!!
Exactly. No one had ever seen Lloyd Bridges or Robert Stack (or Leslie Nielsen) do anything but dramas.
They struggled with it in the beginning too. I think it was Lloyd Bridges who cracked the code when he told Robert Stack that "we" are the joke.
agree i was 16 when it came out n 1980. they were not comedians, until this movie............

The BEST stupid jokes movie of all time! Every actor was working against character and made it hilarious.
I was 10 years old!! I was cracking up!!! LOL
😂😂
I found out only recently that was Barbara Billingsley. That made it even more hilarious 😂😂

I'm sure they had some crackups. Those outtakes are archived on the shelf of some warehouse.
Big difference from today when they’re playing for laughs.
Dr: What was it we had for dinner tonight?
Elaine: We had a choice, steak or fish.
Dr: Yes, i remember. I had lasagna.
My favourite line. It’s hilarious. 😂😂😂
Fkn facts lmao
i dont get it. can you explain?
Yes, yes I remember. I had vagina
You can’t take a guess for another two hours? 😂😂 Leslie Neilson had the best delivery.
Cracks me up 😂
one of the most sarcastic one liners ever. haha@@therobust
@@elgoogs1and delivered completely straight.
The Naked Gun series was so good too
"it's a big building with patients" 🤣🤣🤣
It's a big building where generals meet, but that's not important right now.
Hospital? What is it?
"Do you want me to check on the whether Clarence?" "No, why don't you take care of it."
"We have clearance Clarence,
Roger Roger what's a vector victor"...
That should be "weather".
This one is going over my head. What’s the joke?
@@ted.angell7609the pilot's response is incorrect. He responds as if his copilot had asked HIM to check the weather, but he actually offered to check it himself.
They gave Peter Graves the best lines ever. And he delivered in such a comedic/serious way.
Prior to this film coming out, I though that turning Peter Graves into a comedic actor would be mission impossible!!
How the cast could keep a straight face with Leslie and his whoopie cushion around. They were fantastic.
I'd say 'Airplane' and 'Blazing Saddles' are the two funniest movies ever made. Honorable mention? 'Stripes'
Don't call me Shirley.
jon122569 I like to think he really was calling him Shirley. It makes the scene even funnier to me.
Stop calling me Shirley.
I'm still using that joke, sad
So many things would never pass today. Man I’m so glad I was able to see this. I still watch this for laughs. Amazing!
Yes. Graves' pedo lines would never pass today. And rightly so.
You can't take a guess for another 2 hours!!! When I caught that joke...OMG!!! And Leslie with the straight face made it soo much better.
What mean
@@panchito1384 Watch the video.
I love when the kid says to Kareem my dad says you only hustle in the playoffs. Kareem gets pissed .
Brilliant to have Kareem Abdul-Jabar in effect playing hinself! A kind of pastiche of OJ in films playing himself.
This is a master piece. 20 or 30 years later is still super funny. How many movies can say the same?
I hate to break it to you but it was actually 40 years ago. 😱

Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, Caddy Shack, Blues Brothers, just to name a few.

It offended each and every victim group. Today the leftists would throw them in prison for it
@@AntiAtheismIsUnstoppable Please, I could name 20 non-offensive jokes funny in this movie.

Nope.
The part where she was blowing the balloon co piolet, i remember asking my mom what she was doing and being whisked off to bed lol.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLLLLLLLL
My Son and I paid to stay in the Movie to watch this show TWICE!!!
One more watch would’ve made it thrice
"Get a note to the milk man, no more cheese!" That's line kill, me every time. Lloyd Bridges crushes every scene he's in.
I must have missed that one. And I've sent this movie many times
Unfortunately he picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines.
Steven Stucker had the best lines in the movie. “I can make a hat a brooch a pterodactyl” 😂😂
The typing prior to the line and after its delivery helped the scene
Johnny was the best
Supposedly, he ad-libbed his lined.
RIP Johnny. His character was iciing on the cake.
I found him a little too silly. The humour of the other characters comes from taking themselves too seriously, like they are really in a disaster movie.
You ever seen a grown man naked? 😅😂😂
They would never get away with that today.
Or the old lady stopping the N-bomb....
was just thinking about that line today
You ask kids that often?????
I just noticed the line is dubbed into the film
It's not what he actually says to the kid
Definitely not.
There is just never a good time to quit smoking, drinking, amphetamines, or sniffing glue.
"Cut me some slack, jack!
[Argue in jive]
Chump don't want no help, chump don't get no help. Jive ass dude don't got no sense (?) no how."

A hospital? What is it?
It's a big building with patients but that's not important right now
God this movie if it was made today can you imagine the backlash
Exactly!!! LOL
The level of creativity they had in the scenes and dialogues were above and beyond today's standard comedy....
Now they let special effects guy handle it all!
Johnny was the best.
“It's a big pretty white plane with red stripes, curtains in the windows and wheels. It looks like a big Tylenol.”
😂😂
Nobody did deadpan better than nielsen. I could watch the "are you a doctor" scene a million times in a row -- "yes. yes of course"
“Nervous?”
“Yes.”
“First time?”
“No. I’ve been nervous lots of time.”
Lol

leave it to beaver........things were alot different back then.........
If I’m not mistaken, this was Neilson’s first comic roll. He had been a serious actor for years. Airplane is a classic.
Yes I think so.....LOL
It was, and a legendary comedy career was born.
It is.
Role.
Not exactly. He did start out as a serious actor, but the series Police Squad predates this movie.
One of my top 5 favorite movies of all time! I watch the DVD at least twice a year…every year!
"Passengers certain to die!"
"Airline negligent!"
"THERE'S A SALE AT PENNYS!!"
Just bought shoes...
