The Beach Boys parody 'Skeet Surfing' title scene alone put it on the list.
If everybody had a 12 gauge
With a surfboard too
You see em shootin and surfin'
From here to Malibu
Because he's totally bitchin'
Ridin waves and blastin' pigeons
And its a' neat shootin' skeet when youre ridin' on the heavies all day
First Wave (shoot shoot)
Don't get tired
Second Wave (shoot shoot)
Aim higher
Third Wave (shoot shoot)
Pull it and fire
Skeet Surfin' (it's all right)
Waxin' down our surfboards
And loadin' up our traps
Tell the teacher we're shootin'
And never comin' back
I've got a gun rack in my Chevy
For when the surf and the flak get heavy
And we'll have fun with our guns until the lifeguard takes our ammo away
Nick: Listen to me, Hillary. I'm not the first guy who fell in love with a woman that he met at a restaurant who turned out to be the daughter of a kidnapped scientist, only to lose her to her childhood lover who she last saw on a deserted island, who then turned out fifteen years later to be the leader of the French underground.
Hillary: I know. It all sounds like some bad movie.
[*Both side-eye the camera.*]
The movie is largely a parody of Zero Hour! which took place on a prop driven passenger plane. The Zuckers wanted their movie set on a similar plane, but the studios felt that was too anachronistic, and insisted on a more modern jetliner. The Zuckers demurred, but kept in the prop SFX.
The one segment that will never not be my favorite...
Young Boy with Coffee: Excuse me, I happened to be passing, and I thought you might like some coffee.
Little Girl: Oh, that's very nice of you, thank you.
[takes coffee]
Little Girl: Oh, won't you sit down?
Young Boy with Coffee: Cream?
Little Girl: No, thank you, I take it black, like my men.

Fun fact: the Zucker brothers wrote dialogue for that scene and used it for the auditions.
Then these two guys came in, laughed at how hilariously bad these two Jewish guy's attempt at writing Jive, and just ad-libbed the whole thing.
They got the part and just did the same ad-lib in the final film.
I just finished the audiobook 'Surely You Can't Be Serious: The True Story of Airplane!'. Highly recommended. It's also available as a regular book for those of you who can read but the audiobook is great because most of it is interviews with the people involved, particularly Zucker, Abrahams, Zucker.
"Listen kid, I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night. Tell your old man to drag Walton and Lanier up and down the court for 48 minutes."
I recently read that Kareem was initially offered $30,000 for the role. Kareem had been eyeing a $35,000 antique rug so returned with a request for $35,000. He got it and got the rug.
I have always loved how as the plane starts to get turbulent, his pilot uniform slowly starts to come off and he's wearing his Lakers gear, complete with the goggles. So damn funny
The part where the flight attendant playing guitar accidentally knocks out the sick little girl's IV, doesn't notice and keeps on singing as the girl's face contorts hilariously gets me every time.
Cleavon Little, and he broke character because Gene Wilder improvised that whole speech and punchline, and Little’s reaction was so good they used that shot for the film! 😂
My late dad always said “the great thing about Mel Brooks movies is that if you don’t like that joke, they’ll be another one coming at you in 30 seconds.”
Mel was all about quantity, in the very best way.
“Well, when I see a bunch of weirdos in togas stabbing a man to death in full view of hundreds of people, I shoot the bastards, that’s my policy!”
“That was a Shakespeare in the Park production of Julius Caesar, you moron! You killed five actors. Good ones!”
It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.
*Goodyear?*
No, the worst.
Everyone always says Airplane! but it doesn't hit me the same way The Naked Gun does.
I first watched this movie with my dad, WAYYY too young to get a lot of the jokes (or even to be watching it in general), I just learned to laugh when he did.
I absolutely love all three of them. Even the triumphant theme music gets stuck in my head from time to time.
I’ve always thought the humor of Holy Grail is less consistent than Life of Brian. It has individual scenes which are much funnier than any in Life of Brian, but also a few scenes where they drag a particular joke on for a bit too long. Life of Brian has fewer peaks and valleys in the quality of the humor. Both are great movies though.
*Whatcha all doing in here?*
We're doing Viagra. It gives you a boner! If boners last longer than four hours, call more ladies. (wink)
*I'm sorry friend, I'm going to have to pass this time.*
Didn't you hear me? It gives you boners!
My friend group collectively loves this movie to a bit of an absurd degree. If someone drops a line, it's definitely dominating conversation for the next 20 minutes. We've all found that 90% of people have never heard of it, so it's nice to see it shouted out here. Even if I'm one of 9 upvotes lol.
Edit: There are dozens of us!
I'll turn him into a flea! A harmless little flea. Then, I'll put that flea in a box. Then I'll put that box inside of another box and I'll mail that box to myself. And when it arrives... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I'LL SMASH IT WITH A HAMMER! It's brilliant, brilliant, BRILLIANT, I tell you! Genius I say!
*Plop*
Or, to save on postage, we'll just poison him with this.
>Stinks like sex in here.
I think Chandrasekhar said he ad-libbed that line too. You can see the actor playing Rabbit chuckle a little bit when he says it.
Fun fact: they cast Christopher Mintz-Plasse as McLovin largely because Jonah Hill fucking hated him in screen testing and they thought the conflict would make it funnier
The trip from the Museum to the WWII veterans rally was the coup de grace for me. Kills me every single time when the old vet pulls out his revolver to shoot him. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Otto: Apes don't read philosophy.
Wanda: Yes they do, Otto, they just don't understand it!
Edit: change Archie to Wanda. Why the hell did I put Archie?!?
That was Wanda, during her epic rant of how dumb Otto actually is, even though he thinks he's smart.
"The London Underground is not a political movement."
"You do an eclectic celebration of the dance! You do Fosse, Fosse, Fosse! You do Martha Graham, Martha Graham, Martha Graham! Or Twyla, Twyla, Twyla! Or Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd, Michael Kidd! Or Madonna, Madonna, Madonna!... but you keep it all inside."
Top Secret. The cow scene kills me every time. Mûûûh!
"I know a little German, he's standing over there".

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Airplane!
My favorite bit in Airplane! Is whenever they show the whole plane, you hear propellers.
The movie is largely a parody of Zero Hour! which took place on a prop driven passenger plane. The Zuckers wanted their movie set on a similar plane, but the studios felt that was too anachronistic, and insisted on a more modern jetliner. The Zuckers demurred, but kept in the prop SFX.
It’s a shot for shot parody. They even bought the rights to it so as not to get sued!
Missed that. There are so many details in that movie.
Omg. You’re right! What a masterpiece.
It still kills me that the "I speak Jive" lady is June Cleaver (Barbara Billingsley).
One of the big gags in Airplane! that's lost on most younger people is all those actors were serious, dramatic actors.
I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.
How about some coffee, Johnny? No thanks!
That's the whole point. Also...*chump don want da help, chump don get da help.*
*Jive ass dude don't got no brains anyhow!*
TIL she is also Nanny in the old cartoon Muppet Babies
As an added bit of trivia, to pull off the scene, she took the other actors out for several lunches where they worked the scene out among themselves.
“Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?”
"Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?"
Have you ever seen a grown man naked?
The one segment that will never not be my favorite... Young Boy with Coffee: Excuse me, I happened to be passing, and I thought you might like some coffee. Little Girl: Oh, that's very nice of you, thank you. [takes coffee] Little Girl: Oh, won't you sit down? Young Boy with Coffee: Cream? Little Girl: No, thank you, I take it black, like my men. https://youtu.be/1c1F0PpbHdg
So good! I have a soft-spot for the jive segments, myself.
Fun fact: the Zucker brothers wrote dialogue for that scene and used it for the auditions. Then these two guys came in, laughed at how hilariously bad these two Jewish guy's attempt at writing Jive, and just ad-libbed the whole thing. They got the part and just did the same ad-lib in the final film.
Golly!
Oh stewardess! I speak jive
Oh, stewardess…
I just finished the audiobook 'Surely You Can't Be Serious: The True Story of Airplane!'. Highly recommended. It's also available as a regular book for those of you who can read but the audiobook is great because most of it is interviews with the people involved, particularly Zucker, Abrahams, Zucker.
A hospital? What is it?
It’s a big building with patients, but that’s not important right now.
Surely you can't be serious.
I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.
Roger Roger
"We have clearance, Clarence." "Roger, Roger. What's our vector, Victor?" "Tower's radio clearance, over!" "That's Clarence Oveur. Over." "Over." "Roger." "Huh?"
"Listen kid, I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night. Tell your old man to drag Walton and Lanier up and down the court for 48 minutes."
I recently read that Kareem was initially offered $30,000 for the role. Kareem had been eyeing a $35,000 antique rug so returned with a request for $35,000. He got it and got the rug.
I feel like he was looking at a promptor during that scene and not the kid, makes it even funnier.
I have always loved how as the plane starts to get turbulent, his pilot uniform slowly starts to come off and he's wearing his Lakers gear, complete with the goggles. So damn funny
"I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue."
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines
I had a Honda Pilot named Clarence and whenever I went under anything that felt low hanging I would say "I hope we've got the clearance Clarence"
The part where the flight attendant playing guitar accidentally knocks out the sick little girl's IV, doesn't notice and keeps on singing as the girl's face contorts hilariously gets me every time.
“It's really the only sensible thing to do if it's done properly. Therapeutically there's no danger involved.”
Blazing Saddles
"Somebody's got to go back and get a shitload of dimes!"
He couldn’t have picked a funnier unit of measurement
"...you know, morons."
It's the way Bart breaks character and loses his composure that really makes the scene. (Can't remember the actor's name and too lazy to Google.)
Cleavon Little, and he broke character because Gene Wilder improvised that whole speech and punchline, and Little’s reaction was so good they used that shot for the film! 😂
Gene*ius* Wilder!
"Hey, boys, look what I got here" "Where all the white women at?"
I live in a town that has Sheriffs driving around regularly. You bet your ass I say “The sheriff’s a near!” every single time I see one.
Until they reply "excuse me, while I whip this out".
My late dad always said “the great thing about Mel Brooks movies is that if you don’t like that joke, they’ll be another one coming at you in 30 seconds.” Mel was all about quantity, in the very best way.
along with Young Frankenstein, History of the World (pt1) and Silent Movie.
Don't forget Spaceballs
“They said you was hung!” “And they was right”
Oh man we’re going to need to go back and get a shit load of dimes!
I didn’t get a harumph outta that guy!
Office Space
When I was younger I found the movie so funny. Now that I’m decades into my career it feels more like a documentary.
Every time I watch it I notice my productivity at work go down for the rest of the week .
"I could set this building on fire"
"Lawrence, you awake?" "Yeah, man," "You wanna come over?" "Nah, man, I don't want you fuckin up my life too."
\*thru the wall Dont worry I won't tell anyone either man!
PC load letter. What the fuck does that mean?
The Naked Gun
“Entering without a search warrant, destroying property, arson, sexual assault with a concrete dildo... what the hell's got into you, Frank?”
“Well, when I see a bunch of weirdos in togas stabbing a man to death in full view of hundreds of people, I shoot the bastards, that’s my policy!” “That was a Shakespeare in the Park production of Julius Caesar, you moron! You killed five actors. Good ones!”
It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day. *Goodyear?* No, the worst.

Even the triumphant theme music gets stuck in my head from time to time.
“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.”
Lot of great movies here, but I gotta throw Clue out there.
"Your first husband also disappeared." "That was his job, he was an illusionist." "But he never re-appeared!" "He wasn't a very good illusionist."
Now, I’m gonna go home and sleep with my wife.
That’s why I’ve chosen to expose myself! “Sir! There are women present!”
"Flame. Flames, flames on the side of my face... Hea.. Bre... Heaving breasts.."
"His head was cut off and so was his... well, you know." *Every man in the room simultaneously crosses their legs*
1 + 1 + 2 + 1
No, it's 1 + 2 +1 + 1
Came here to write this! It is SO densely written with jokes, I think I pick up on a new one every time I watch it. Absolutely brilliant
Monty Python & the Holy Grail
"I'm not dead yet"
“I’m getting better”
"Someday, son, all this will be yours." "The curtains?"
She's got *huuuuge*....tracts of land!
I’ve always thought the humor of Holy Grail is less consistent than Life of Brian.

Life of Brian has fewer peaks and valleys in the quality of the humor. Both are great movies though.
Yeah but as a member of the peoples front of Judea I must say life of brian gives the judean peoples front too much screen time
African or European?
Walk Hard: The Duey Cox Story The entire movie has maybe four seconds of time that isn’t devoted to a joke.
You don’t want any part of this!!

And rated the second best Star Trek movie, after Wrath of Kahn.
