Thanks for the heads up!
I've seen it before, but I've been wanting to show it to a few people side by side with Airplane!

I figure if you wanted my opinion on items unrelated to this forum, you'd ask for it.

Just caught the end of it- amazing how close Airplane made some of the scenes and dialog to this movie, even the characters names. Brilliant.

Definatly worth watching again.

I keep the thought of this comparison in the back of my mind when I hear politicians (any of them!) spout off, with just a small tweek in timing........... Thanx Chris!!
