It's a funny movie, to be sure, but where it sits in the Top 100 doesn't bother me much. The Macho Grande bit is from <em>Airplane II: The Sequel</em>, by the way. Though Jim Abrahams and the Zucker brothers weren't involved with (and allegedly claim never to have seen) that one, it's still got some pretty damn funny moments.

Probably won't, but will soon. I cannot remember the last time I saw <em>Airplane! </em>, and it is the kind of movie MFC would appreciate. OMG, I really should rent that on the way home!
