Shirley These “Airplane!” Jokes are Still Hilarious
1
Surely it’s not hyperbole… “Airplane!” just might be the funniest film ever made.
Over 40 years ago, Jim Abrahams and the Zucker brothers piloted this spoof comedy straight into the comedy movie ethos.
There’s no denying the impact “Airplane” has had on today’s comedy movies and pop culture in general. Try saying, “surely you can’t be serious?” and see how many Leslie Nielsen impressions follow suit.
Every perfectly timed zinger, callback joke, and visual gag is like a well-executed take-off.
Admittedly, turning the classic comedy into memes doesn’t do the film or actors justice, so, consider these memes your in-flight entertainment… until you rewatch “Airplane” and wake up everyone in your house with laughter.
