Airplane!
(1980)
Funny--no, really, funny!--I always remember this as a gag-a-minute riot-fest, but in fact, compared with the AK-47 gagfests of today, this is a lot more patient, a lot more deliberate in setting up its jokes--and just a whole lot funnier. As often as I've seen this (at least six times, surely . . . ), how can I still laugh out loud at so much of it? Well, yeah, OK: I'd had some wine, but still . . .

Don't give me that "red zone" crap.
I was just thinking of the whole "You are Kareem!" bit a few weeks ago.
"Listen, kid, you tell your old man to drag Walton and Lanier up and down the floor for 48 minutes!"
