Airplane!



I love me some Airplane!

I've probably seen this film 50 times, and each time, something new cracks me up. Tonight, it was Robert Stack's character, Rex Kramer, telling someone on the phone to "Keep it at 24,000. (pause) No, feet!"

Sure, this film has some dumb jokes, but the ones that work still do so after 30 years. What a classic. Plus you can't beat this film for quoteworthiness. Rattle off a line from Airplane! in mixed company and you might get another line in return and a knowing smile.

And Leon's getting laaaarrrger.

  1. And who can walk into an airport without stating that the white zone is for loading and unloading?
