Watching Airplane

Spent the evening watching Airplane, probably one of the better slapstick comedies of the 80s. I think I'm a bigger fan of slapstick than I would admin; probably because I love spotting the small incongruencies that make the show funny (or not; depending on how you look at it). Well, Airplane is a classic and few comedies make it to those dizzy heights. As you might know, it was followed by a number of sequels and parodies; but nothing quite compares; can you imagine teryx suspensions on a plane? Well, neither can I.
