      Another one is they cast Kareem Abdul Jubar to make fun of other films where they cast sports stars that can't act... so they amplified the effect by having him read large cue cards held off camera so you can seek him look back and forth.
      But it gets better because he's personally offended at disparaging comments to his sports performance... and then when carried out of the cockpit he's wearing his Jersey and shorts.
      But I also love the "so Billy, do you like gladiator films?"

      And with this movie having become such a classic, younger viewers often don't realize that until Airplane! happened, they (Peter Graves too) WERE almost exclusively serious actors -- the prime examples of square-jawed humorless action heroes. Leslie Nielsen especially: this movie literally reinvented his career, as previously nobody had imagined he could be this funny. Afterward, he became stuck in a new stereotype, as someone audiences expected to be hilarious.

    What I love about Airplane! is that rather than use comic actors, they hired straight actors and the jokes hit so much harder because they're not delivered in a goofy way but instead everyone is completely straight and deadpan. Also, there are so many jokes in the background that even after seeing it a million times, there seems to be something I missed.

    Fun fact - the black guys created the jive language on their own and incorporated it into their audition which won them the part. Barbara Billingsley (lady who spoke to them) was invited to make a cameo for that scene as she was a popular actress who portrayed the stereotypical 1950's American housewife & mom in the sitcom, Leave it to Beaver (1957). Not only did they have to teach her the language but she enjoyed doing it!

    The lady that was talking jive with the two black actors was the actress who played the mother on the t.v show Leave It To Beaver. The character was very straight laced and never uttered a bad word on the show. So this scene was made even funnier because no one had seen her in different character especially one who cussed. But she did deliver one of the most unintentional sexual innuendo lines in t.v history when she was talking to the husband whose name was Ward. Cleaver in Leave It To Beaver which was the nickname of the child in the show. After a scene where the father had chastised the Beaver for some mistake the mother said "Gee Ward don't you think you were a little rough on the Beaver last night?"

    Some fun facts. One of the jokes, not many catch is the shelves full of mayo jars in the background during the Mayo Clinic call -which by the way, is one of the most famous hospitals in the US. The African tribe playing basketball was the Globe Trotters. The lady saying Jim never drinks coffee twice at home was replaying a line from a commercial in which she said a similar line. The jive lady was famous for her role as the most white stereotypical woman on TV who would be the last person on earth to understand jive. The two black guys speaking jive improvised their lines using real jive slang from the time. The autopilot’s name was Otto; if you read his name out loud it’d be Otto-Pilot or autopilot. The Turkish prison and movies about gladiators lines referenced a couple of famous movies from that time. The beach and algae scene also referenced another movie. The whole slapping scene was proposed by that same lady getting slapped. The surfing nun was actually a guy dressed as a nun while surfing in California. This was Leslie Nielsen’s first comedy. When the flight attendant sings, that’s her real voice. Smoking sections were pretty common on airplanes until the early 90s. The guy on the radar is Jonathan Banks, the actor who plays Mike Ehrmantraut on Breaking Bad. The singing lady at the hospital was in fact, Ethel Merman. The guy in the taxi was a Californian politician famous for his tax and money-saving policies. there is a post-credits scene with him still waiting for the cab driver at the end of the movie. There are tons of more fun facts worth reading about.

    For those too young to remember such things, the white woman speaking "jive" to the black passengers was Barbara Billingsley, who played the Mom, June Cleaver on the TV show Leave it to Beaver in the 1950's and 60's. The guy waiting in the taxi at the airport was Howard Jarvis, a very influential tax reformer when this movie came out. It's funnier with him because he would *NEVER* have put up with being charged for no service. Robert Stack is doing a parody of the part he played in the 1954 movie, The High and the Mighty. Airplane is an almost scene for scene remake of the 1957 film Zero Hour!
