Airplane! is the perfect comedy

God I love this movie. True irreverent humor that I don't want to know if people contained about. Nude breasts that perfectly fit the MPAA PG nudity guidelines of "brief and non-sexual". So many quotable one-liners. The sight gags were on point and perfectly timed. I WISH movies like this could be made. Scary Movie, Not Another Teen Movie, and all the other parody movies are great, but do not hold a candle to the Airplane! movies.

Naked Gun is another great one.

Kentucky Fried Movie is up there as well.

"It's true what they say, cops and women don't mix. It's like eating a spoonful of Drano; sure it'll clean you out, but it'll leave you hollow inside"

I loved the Naked Gun movies.

The Hot Shots movies were funny too.

The obvious one is Blazing Saddles.

Then there is "the gods must be crazy" which I thought was amazing
