I know it's kind of random, but I filmed this a while ago, because I needed a comedy, and with shifting everything around because of Arcane, I'm moving a few projects up in the timeline. So I hope you all have a good laugh, and enjoy this as much as I did!

Airplane! Full Length Reaction

Comments

Jacqi, as a USC graduate, I don't think you're allowed to dance along with the Notre Dame fight song. They might revoke your diploma if you're not careful. ;) (That whole talk between Ted and the Doctor is parodying a famous scene from "Knute Rockne, All-American" (1940). Rockne was a Norte Dame player and coach that first pushed the Irish to national prominence. It was a mostly forgotten film by the 70's until Ronald Reagan(who played George Gipp in the film) started his run for president. During his campaign, he started using his line from the film as a campaign slogan: "Win one for the Gipper." As for your memory about the forehead slap meme, you've got the wrong movie, but one of the right actors. If you continue watching Leslie Nielsen movies, you'll come across it very soon. (BTW, Airplane was Nielsen's first comedy. This led to a second act to his career as a brilliant comedic actor.) To a few of your most confused looks: - The whole movie is a spoof on suspense melodramas from the 50s/60s. They(ZAZ) specifically used the script from the movie "Zero Hour!" (1957) as the basis of "Airplane!"; to the point that they bought the rights to "Zero Hour!" to avoid legal problems. - Boy's Life is/was a real magazine for the Boy Scouts. It's now called Scout's Life. - "Jim never has a second cup of coffee at home" - This is from a Yuba Coffee ad campaign from the 70s. - The woman doing the jive translation was Barbara Billingsley. She was well-known for portraying June Cleaver on "Leave it to Beaver" (1957-63); the most whitest of white-bread housewives on TV at the time. - The beach scene was a parody of a famous scene in "From Here to Eternity" (1953) about the days before the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. Speaking of PH, the Imperial Japanese general on the plane was portrayed by the legendary James Hong; still making movies today at the age of 96. - The stethoscope joke is because airplane headphones at the time looked like them because they use the same principle(air pressure). These headphones disappeared almost overnight once cheap electronic headphones hit the market in the very early 80s. - The very questionable pilot - Honestly too long to fully describe, but it goes back to "Zero Hour!". Due to several factors(facial structure, camera angle, lighting, etc.), the pilot in the original looked like he was leering at the kid. ZAZ blew that up into the whole series of jokes in "Airplane!". It's a deep cut joke.

If you get a moment, there is a post credits scene at the very end, and it's what I'm sure you expect it to be :)

You missed the post credits scene. The "Jim never has a second cup of coffee at home" was a reference to Yuban coffee ads from the 70s.

If you ever get a chance watch Zero Hour! It’s the original screenplay for this movie. Many of the scenes in Airplane! are taken directly from that movie (including the ! In the title). It’s interesting how a disaster movie can be made into a comedy. It’s also one of those moves movies you keep picking little details on. Like the sound of the jet is that of a propeller aircraft, not a jet. Or that the old lady who speaks jive is Barbara Billingsley who was Leave it to Beavers mother, June Cleaver. It was also Leslie Neilsen’s first movie and first comedy. He doesn’t even make his appearance till 38 min into the movie.

There are a few movies that I always look forward to seeing notifications of reactors. When I saw yours for Airplane I could not wait! Seeing you have a good laugh is always a highlight!

Necrophysilis

The group facepalm is from the third Naked Gun movie.

If you would like a comedy TV show to react to, Galivant is amazing and underrated. Only a few people have reacted to it, but i promise its worth a watch.

If you go on IMDB, this is Otto's first and only credited movie.

Sterling LaLoge

But with this credit he was given his own Imdb page

One of the jokes that almost no one gets is the name of the stewardess Randi. A play on the reputation stereotype of stewardesses always being eager to show how much their feet hate each other. I hope that you watch the second Airplane movie at some point. I personally think that it was better than this one. Although it has far fewer memes and gifs to its credit. :)

Thank you! After all the heavy, I needed a good laugh! 😄

Movie Night

I'll make sure to go back to it before I post the video to YouTube. Thank you for letting me know!

Thankyou - I'd forgotten how gloriously absurd this film is. This is the first time in 40 years i've sat and watched the whole thing. I was an immature teenager back then, so naturally my favourite bit was the wobbling jelly. I'm very different now though - grown up, married, responsible, but it turns out that's still my favourite bit.

This movie may not have invented deadpan comedy. . . but it might have. They cast actors like Peter Graves, Robert Stack, and Leslie Nielsen to say ridiculous things with complete seriousness, because it made them funnier. To the point Leslie Nielsen is remembered more these days as a comedic actor than a serious one, he was a classic leading man type before this film came out. Stack and Graves pretty much returned to serious roles after this, but weren't above dipping back into comedy, mostly via Adam Westing. And you perfectly illustrate why this movie works so well: if you don't like this joke, 5 seconds later there's a completely different one that'll probably get you. If you like all the jokes, you need to watch it three or four times to get the ones you missed while were laughing at another. This is a true example of "often imitated, never duplicated." A lot of movies aim for what this one accomplished -- Scary Movie and its sequels, the other "(X) Movie" parodies, even its own sequel, Airplane! II -- but none have ever quite captured what made this one work. That said, I do think Airplane! II is good, just not as good as this, and some of the gags it borrows from this film wear out their welcome.
