The disgruntled postal workers charging in, gun blazing like there's no tomorrow with epic orchestra music playing in the background will always be the funniest shit I've ever seen in my life.
In Germany when the postman came in they said in the German dub, "oh no, look, the postmen want the 20 hour weeks" which really cracked me up. One of the only things that was funnier to me in the German version
Fun fact: leslies nielson played most of his life rather serious roles. After the Audience loved him for his role in "airplane" he stuck to comedy. I would say his biggest strength in comedy was the fact that he could say and do the most ridiculous things on camera while keeping an absolute straight face.
I met him on the street in the French Quarter. A small crowd had gathered around him and he was so graceful and kind to everyone. I walked away thoroughly impressed. He really knew how to show his appreciation towards his fans.
I miss this brand of humor. This is how you do random gag humor right. There are absurdist jokes at play, not just "lol let's throw everything at the wall and see what stick"
When films like Naked Gun and Airplane! are firing on all cylinders, you barely have time to catch your breath from laughter. There's lots of great modern comedy but I've never seen a film that managed to pack as many gags into every single scene as these
That's a SIG P228 converted to fire blanks. You can see it cycling brass in the earlier shots. You can tell it's a P228 and not the near-identical P229 since the groove in the front of the slide only goes back to the chamber.
LOL at the postal worker scene... not many people remember these days all the shootings by whacked-out postal workers in the '80s and '90s. It certainly was a thing at one time.
Crazy thing about that is that this movie came out in March of 1994. The OJ chase through Los Angeles in Al Cowling's white Bronco happened on June 17th, 1994. So this movie was actually still in some theaters when the world changed.
That scene might be the greatest parody since Airplane. The people who did The Untouchables are likely also laughing out loud. There's like a new thing that's funny every 5 seconds, including that Frank Drebin never learned how to hold an assault rifle (where did he get that thing, anyway?). The fact that it's a dream sequence is also a great parody, seeing as how dream sequences are one of the most obvious and disliked tired clichés. I think what cracked me up the most was the lawnmower. We miss you, Leslie.
Still one of the funniest scenes in cinema history. Up there with the underwater bar fight scene in Top Secret. What? You've never seen Top Secret?! Go see it now.
It suspiciously sounds like _"You Go We Go"_ from _Backdraft's_ original soundtrack: th-cam.com/video/hO-YIWaoUFg/w-d-xo.html The scene itself is a parody of two other movies: Brian de Palma's 1987 _The Untouchables_ and Sergei Eisenstein's 1925 _Battleship Potemkin_ (namely, the iconic shootout scene where a pram with a baby is tumbling down a very long flight of stairs while soldiers shoot on protesters). Oh, and fun fact: the ululating cry of the suicide bomber in this scene is actually done by Peter Segal, the movie's director.

I've seen it in several movies such as the original film "La femme Nikita." It actually shows up twice in the movie: once when the VIP's guards chase Anne Parillaud through the restaurant and again when she is in the secret agency's gun range.
@@abelq8008 Its got a sight integrated into the carrying handle, right at the front. Not a great sight radius but they did think of the sights. As I recall it was a small tube welded right there so your sight picture was a target inside a tube inside the rear aperture.

I love how everything in a technical level is so serious and intense, the music, the camera movements, the edition, adds a lot to the comedy factor that is filmed like a real drama

It's hard to believe Leslie Nielsen is the father of all modern serious science fiction movies! He was the star of Forbidden Planet, the first Hollywood big budget serious science fiction movie!
Today this entire scene probably wouldn't be filmed with how PC Hollywood has become. People don't have a sense of humor or are too easily offended by scenes like this. That makes me sad because Leslie Neilson is a legend and the Naked Gun series is comedy gold. Not to worry though, Disney will be releasing a new generic animated or Marvel superhero movie again soon 🙄

I think Scary movies tried similar humor with the comedy.

_Arrested Development_ is even craftier at the layers of jokes. And the jokes are smarter.
@@danieldougan269 Smarter does not mean funnier
1:18 Him switching from an obvious prop gun to a realistic assault rifle that's actually ejecting shells is a nice touch.
Also the side gag of M16 jamming..
That was the militarys fault btw not the designers
Those are the jokes that I particularly love about Mel Brooks style of comedy, how he includes props and sets in creative gags
They're all firearms converted for blank ammunition including his pistol. The term *prop* just means (theatrical) property
That's a SIG P228 converted to fire blanks. You can see it cycling brass in the earlier shots. You can tell it's a P228 and not the near-identical P229 since the groove in the front of the slide only goes back to the chamber.
