Airplane!
“I just want to tell you both good luck, we’re all counting on you”.
Some things in this movie don’t age well, but you can’t tell me this isn’t the greatest comedy of all time. Not only did “Airplane!” shape my humor, as well as countless others, but it also introduced me to one of my all time favorite actors: Leslie Nielsen. Any time I need a pick-me-up, this is the movie I put on. The visual gags are on another level, but the writing is what really makes me love it.
The real question is… When is this getting put on the Criterion Collection?
