Wow I never knew this scene was a parody of another movie. But that little boy deserves an Oscar for his reaction 🤣🤣
@Ivy Mossgarden "Zero Hour" was the serious movie that "Airplane" was a parody of
th-cam.com/video/8-v2BHNBVCs/w-d-xo.html
It's pretty remarkable, most of the movie is a shot for shot remake but funnier.
@Ivy Mossgarden It's not even really a parody, it's like 90% the same movie, it's basically just a remake with jokes in it.
Not just this scene.The whole movie.
When I discovered the original, it makes the "remake" even funnier. Pure genius.
For me too! 🤩
Not a remake it’s more like a parody.
@@Daniel4646yes!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
same for me - I didn't know it came from another scene..
I know everyone is in love with the boy's expression (and rightly so) but the little girl's timing and delivery is far beyond her years.
Agree .
Also agree!
It's called 'acting'...
@@glenncalzada1707 No one was saying it wasn't you smug numpty, lol he was just saying her acting was good for someone her age.
@@glenncalzada1707 And you're what is called a "douchebag".
It was only 10 years later when both kids finally got the joke.
And she still prefered it black
@@mortenu.5606 yeah but now when she says I take mine black, like my men, he responds "same"
They were 11 or 12 when they filmed this... they probably knew then. I'm about the same age as the boy/girl (in real life) and we knew more than adults wanted to think we did by that age.
Nice

This film is among the best comedies ever made. The coffee girl is played by Michelle Stacy, and the coffee boy is played by David Hollander. Stacy had a prolific child acting career, but stopped working in that profession in 1980. Hollander went on to become a successful screenwriter and executive producer.
He was also Little Earl in the last season of What's Happening?
you're truly the best.
There’s two David Hollanders, this one isn’t the writer although he does appear to be still working
@@guccideltaco And if I remember correctly he had a massive crush on Raj’s younger sister Dee so apparently he took them black too. 😂😂
Yeah but did shs end up having any mixed babies?
“Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop sniffing glue!!” (It’s time to watch this movie again)
...... and the wrong day to stop methamphetamine
Every single second of Airplane has a top quality joke in it. It's an absolute pandoras box of brilliance and is utterly timeless.
Even the credits are ridiculous
I watched it and this is not true, some of the many seconds they did not make a joke.
Absolutely. And that line - like my men - along with numerous others, is still used very regularly in our house. To describe anything!
This and Blazing Saddles would be my top two comedies.
There's loads of hidden gems, like:
Rumack: Captain, how soon can you land?
Captain Oveur: I can't tell.
Rumack: You can tell me. I'm a doctor.
Captain Oveur: No. I mean I'm just not sure.
Rumack: Well, can't you take a guess?
Captain Oveur: Well, not for another two hours.
Rumack: You can't take a guess for another two hours?
This movie could never be made in today's political climate
The first movie I ever paid a theater twice to see. People were rolling out of their seats. Our sides ached.
I can emphasize. And this movie has truly aged VERY well.
Ditto, Crash Landing was hilarious!
Take your pills, old man😂
Yes, the little girl saying "like my men" is funny. But what gets me every time is the way the boy is looking at her after. 😭😭😭
losttribe3001 yeah, the look on his face is comic genius
Imagine what the kids parents said after the scene maybe they were there da whores
lol he is like "bitch wtf? why did you have to tell me that?", the ultimate "i have a boyfriend"
Most epic look of burn ever.
today he could say he identifies as black.
The fact that the kids were dressed in the same style as the adults was priceless. :D
Even better that they set up these kids earlier in the movie, during the scene where everyone’s getting on the plane you can spot him looking at the girl’s ass like a perverted middle aged man
@@mrcritical6751there is nothing perverted looking at a woman‘s ass as long she‘s not a minor or related to you and she is his age by the way
Yes, it does make it funnier.
I love how his reaction looks so authentic when he has already seen the script over and over and practiced the scene before. Fantastic acting
Well, who knows. Like with The Empire Strikes Back line "I am your father!" this might have NOT been in the script he got to read...
"I 'happened' to be passing...(with a tray and two cups of coffee)" 😆
This video inspired me to become black
We're 100% BLACK.

Nowadays if you feel like you're black the rest of us have to play along anyway or we get sued. So why not? Welcome to the team.
The fact that you can hear propellers buzzing in the back even though they're flying in a jet engine has to be the best gag in the entire film.
EDIT: this video must’ve hit the algorithm because I suddenly got a lot of likes and replies on this particular comment. I just want to take the opportunity and clarify that it isn’t really “the best gag” in the movie, but it’s certainly the most subtle one and thinking about how they snuck it in makes me chuckle every time.
🤣🤣🤣🤣I've seen that movie 20 times and NEVER noticed that!
really ? the best one?
@@ryanlynch290 Same!
Aren't all commercial planes these days jet? Yet they have twin propellers right?

The best part is the boy's look at the end. Priceless. Good direction on that.

I didn't find out that this movie was a direct parody of an older film until more than 20+ years after I saw it. It's a credit to how well the comedy works considering that almost nobody knew about the original!

@@OliverMoore1973how the fuck are you in tomorrow
@@OliverMoore1973 Damn !! Me too. "Airplane" was a riot, but I never knew it was a parody of a much older movie.
Um...when it came out EVERYBODY knew about the original.
@@dannyh8288 UUHH ? Who is "everybody" ? You just heard from several people who didn't know.
I've seen the movie at least five or six times over the years, knew the line was coming, and still heartily laughed out loud for about 30 seconds when I heard it again just now. This movie is just priceless...
Me, too.
I like when a passenger offer a drink of alcohol to a grandma and she say no, but inhale a line of cocaine... I'm still laughing
Really?? 30 seconds?? Surely you can't be serious?? 😂
@@derekmmmm,
I'm not even going to say it - too easy. But you know the next line...

This was made just before I joined the Corps and became an ATC'er-Radar. We must have memorized the entire movie script- it made for some wild humor slipping bits of dialogue into our work. This parody is so smart. Both child actors had the expressions and timing down perfectly. TY!
The boy's expression at 00:47 is impeccable!
Kind of a Jack Benny-esque reaction.
It's funny because I paused it at that exact moment, laughed like hell, and then started going through the comments to see if anyone commented on it.

we're almost there!
No matter how many times I watch it the boy’s reaction gets me every single time! 😂
And you're not alone!
This boy may be... what, 10 years old? But that look on his face makes him look like he’s just aged 37 years in one second
XD!
Thats the moment the innocence leaves his body
Considering _Airplane!_ is from 1980 he caught up a few years ago.
@@germanvisitor2 Got curious and looked him up, he was born in 1969 on August 7. He was ten here and is now 52. Did I need to look that up, and do the math no but I get bored easily lol.

:D
One of the best scenes in cinema; ever. The manners, the clothing, the uptight condescendation, the fleeting remark with a dreamy expression, followed by the sheer, crushing feeling of complete inadequacy. You can live a whole life, and never experience such joyful moment.
Man, that kid nailed that look in the end. They were both great, but that look in the end really killed it!
"Zero Hour " 1957. Is the movie that "Airplane " was spoofed from. You tube has a video with side by side (split screen) on all the seens...its a must see.....
I've seen Airplane! so many times that I think I actually laughed harder watching Zero Hour!, just thinking of all the scenes they lifted verbatim.
Anyone have a link? Thx!
The Zucker Brothers bought the remake rights to Zero Hour to make Airplane.

Airplane!, where no moment is wasted. Always something unexpected going on.
This movie was full of so many good one-liners and quotable quotes. A must watch!
Two things:
1) The kids and coffee scene cracks me up. Still funny over 40 years later.
2) Those two kids are probably in their 50s now. That's scary.

Now knowing that this is a reactment of another makes this scene much funnier.
It’s hard to narrow the funniest moments down when the whole movie is so funny, but this might be #1 for me.
Very hard. I have to go with Ted's drinking problem. And every single thing Robert Stack says and does.

The kid’s face. Absolutely priceless.
Absolutely love this movie! This movie and many others wouldn't fly in these times. I'm surprised it has not been cancelled.
I love the Mrs. Cleaver scene. "Excuse me, miss. I speak Jive."
I love how Kareem Abdul-Jabbar plays himself as the copilot and the movie doesn’t really address why he’s the copilot of a random passenger jet
@@kaimcdragonfist4803 I remember two scenes with him. The first is when the kid is telling him what his dad thinks of him and the second is when he is carried away, still wearing his basketball shorts and sneakers.

It makes you think ZAZ maybe didn't tell the kid that Abdul-Jabbar would be grabbing him by the collar!
Wassup mama I dug her rap. My momma didn’t raise no dummy 😠
My favourite scene, by far. Pity the people who've commented on your comment refer to an entirely different scene altogether. Don't worry, we got you ;)
1,000 years from now this is still going to be hilarious. :)
Nah, cuz there will only be one race in 1,000 years. Either that, or the human race will be extinct.
It won't make sense. we're all gonna be black in a thousand years.
Unless the woke brigade get their way of course.
I went to see this with a group of students in 1980. I don't think I have ever laughed so much since, No time to recover from one visual gag, before something else set us off big time. My sides were well and truly split and I would not be surprised if there were people who saw this, who literally died laughing.
What made it even funnier for this ( 20 at the time ) Canadian kid was seeing Leslie Nielsen in such a zany role. He was a familiar , serious character actor on Canadian TV before this movie.
I've seen this movie 6000 times and I still laugh at every joke. 😆
Yeah, the Zuckers and Abrahms were truly the Slapstick Masters of their time.
I remember that kid as Little Earl on 'What's Happening!" and he actually had a crush on Dee. So he liked his women black too.
And the little girl is the voice actress of Penny from Disney's The Rescuers (1977)
I had that same thought.
I've watched Airplane so many times, I'd never be able to watch Zero Hour without constantly cracking up.
Leaving the theater with a sore back from intense laughing indicates a superb comedy.
This movie keeps everyone (with a sense of humor) laughing hard even over forty years after its creation. It is truly ageless.
Boy should have won an Oscar just for that facial expression at the end!
Hell yeah 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
When it was released in Australia it was called "Flying High"
also in the Netherlands and some other countries in Europe I believe. Don't know why
@@jowannes69 there’s quite a few movies that have different names even in English speaking countries. For example in Britain, NZ and Australia a recent British made movie was called The Boat that Rocked whereas in the USA it was called Pirate Radio I think.
There was an American movie released in '79 called "The Concorde...Airport '79". In some countries it wasn't released until 1980 so got the title "Airport '80". This caused both movies to end up being released about the same time. To curb confusion, the "Airplane" title was changed.
That's funny, there used to be an TV comedy called Flying High. Like Charlie's Angels, but with flight attendants.
@@tami8458 Well, I wouldn't say it was like Charlie's Angels. The formula of starring 3 female leads in a show had become a trope at that time because of the success of Charlie's Angels, but Flying High had unfortunately been canceled very quickly. Shame, too; I really enjoyed it.
Never knew that connection. Thanks!
Glad I found it!
His wee face at the punchline. :D
Such a good film, seen bits of the original before and saw so much Airplane! in it.
Not a punchline, but facts.
:V
If you rwant to see another vintage movie with a lot of Airplane! in it, check out Zero Hour. That is the movie most of Airplane! is actually based on; from the main plot to much of the actual dialog.
@Saltire True. Airplane! is more or less a remake.
betoen wtf

To be fair… they might not have understood the punchline themselves. And it’s easy to tell a kid “Just look surprised after she says that.”
Great to see it with the original clip first. Beautiful 😂
I had no idea the spoof was based on an original but the spoof may as well BE an original it's so good
OMG I had no idea this was a spoof!!! I just saw the movie Airplane when I was younger and just thought it was a random funny (now classic) moment. How fun to learn this. Thanks for posting!
Well, it IS commonly known that the whole movie is a spoof of the disaster film Zero Hour, with many other elements in the mix. This clip is just one of them.
Still, thanks!
In the edited for TV version, those two have an entire conversation and he introduces himself as Milt Ettenheim.
I'm puzzled why I still get so much joy and laughter from a scene I've known verbatim and watched 100+ times in the last 30 years. I'm not worried about solving this puzzler, just thankful something so "petty" is actually gold to me. This movie is basically a treasure trove.
I never realized that many of the scenes in this hilarious movie were actual scene send ups from an older movie. This movie is a comedy masterpiece.
It a remake of zero hour
It is such a close copy that ZAZ had to buy the rights to Zero Hour to avoid being sued.
@@cadenza3210 yes they got the rights cheap since the original was not very successful.
@@ronblack7870 I have a copy of Zero Hour and am not surprised .
Every time I watch this movie I see or hear something new. You have to be listening carefully, and watching the background too. It is so much fun.
I know most of "Airplane!" is a parody of "Zero Hour!" but this scene is a revelation!
It’s more than just a parody. Like this scene, it’s basically a shot for shot spoof.
I thought it was supposed to be a parody of Airport 1975.
@@strawberryseason It's an amalgram of several movies, but mostly "Zero Hour!", including the exclamation point in the title. Almost shot for shot, actually. It's on Amazon Prime Video.
@@JohnDrummondPhoto Thank you. I will have to find that one. Never seen it.
@@strawberryseason With apologies to the creators of Zero Hour!, it can’t be watched as a drama any more.
It's utterly brilliant: a line of dialogue from a lesser known movie that someone would probably riff on and what do they do? They take that riff and put it IN THE MOVIE.
Fun fact, the original upon which the movie Airplane! is based upon, the Canadian production Zero Hour (known as Crash Landing in the US), was produced by a guy named Sydney Newman. This success got him noticed across the pond by both the BBC and ITV. ITV hired him as a producer for the Armchair Theatre series and while at ITV, he became a co-creator of the show The Avengers. Before that show developed into the series we remember today in its second season, Newman was hired away to become the Head of Drama at the BBC where one of the first things he did was co-create Doctor Who.
To be honest, this is the first time ever I learn that this particular scene in "Airplane!" is a parody of another, older scene (I'm not surprised, still...).
But I am also honest, I still have enjoyed this scene with the two children nonetheless, it is just silly and highbrow while serving a great little punchline XD
The entire movie is just about a scene for scene, line for line parody of "zero hour"
I had no idea Airplane is a parody of an older movie, and I still enjoy it every time I see it!!🤣🤣”Like my men.”
It NEVER gets old!!!!! 😂🤣😂🤣
I never saw the origina. Now that I have seen it, it mades the parody so much more funnier.
What many do not realize is that the 1980 “Airplane” movie used much of the exact screenplay dialogue of “Zero Hour” from 1957.
I showed this in my classroom years ago… some black girls at the back weren’t paying attention and then heard their and howled with laughter. The loved the jive talk scene too. One of my proudest moments as a teacher.
You really showed this particular clip to your school class?! I'm honored!
I showed the whole movie... it was a snow day. so the whole class wasn't there.
@@NeilRamsay-q4zAh, well.
The girl in the scene is Michelle Stacy. She was a child actor through the much of the 70s appearing in a number of TV shows and movies before retiring from acting after making "Airplane!" at the ripe old age of 12. She went on to attend USC and is married to Danny Northern.
The boy is David Hollander. He continued to work in Hollywood for a time as an actor, but is probably best known for his work behind the camera as a music supervisor, producer, cinematographer, and more.
Yeah...everybody knows cinematographers!
He is best known for being the EXTREMELY annoying Little Earl on What's Happening!!
Humor like this will never come back.
Then let's make sure we enjoy that type of humor all the more.
Best clip to start the day😂
Saw this awesome movie when it was released over the July 4, 1980 weekend with my best friend when we were 13. We quoted it for the next 38 years until he passed away a couple years ago. Definitely made an impact on a couple of teenage boys.....
Sorry you lost your friend. Glad you had 38 years of fun along the way.
Seven. Lieutenant Zipp died this morning
love to you and your friend
Here's hoping my best friend and yours have met up;)
My condolences 🙏. ,GOD Bless, and may your friend R.I.P.
One of the best jokes in the movie. I don't know how they got that kid to act, but his expression was excellent. And the girl's timing was perfect.
It's not the only time they added just three words to the script. During the phone conversation where the guy was saying he was a menace to everything in the air was lifted directly from "Zero Hour". Having him add "Yes, birds too." made it funny (though not on the comedy gold level as "like my men", but then again, few things are).
Those two kids nail that exchange. I mean their timing and deliveries are absolutely perfect.
Me at nine years old didn’t get the joke. My parents were practically on the floor laughing though. I now see why.
Still cracks me up after decades.
The way the little girl times it b4 she takes a drInk, and says "like my men" is hilarious! The boy's face?...PRICELESS!
I have had to rewatch this film more times than I can recall. I'm doubled up, my jaws ache, my stomach hurts so much that I had to get it on DVD and watch it in parts. I watched the original at the cinema. This for me is comedy gold.
back when this line was still fresh.
Airplane! is a classic. Still holds up today
When you find out the girl in "Airplane!" was the voice of Penny in Disney's "The Rescuers".
DAAAAAAAAAAAAMN! O_O
Wow! I love that movie
I'm just happy people remember the Rescuers, it's such a wonderful film. Bernard and Bianca forever.
Barbara Billingsley translating Rap in the movie Airplane was LOL funny.
This and Beaver's mother talking jive are two of my favorite scenes.
I actually didn't get this scene and wondered what the humor was beyond just two kids drinking coffee. Now it makes perfect sense and is way funnier in context.
It’s funny with and without the context,or maybe that’s just me?
Thanks for showing the original
You're welcome.
I can't watch the original without adding like my men after it in my head
With today's deepfake technology they could make it a reality 😁
There's gotta be a 'hillarious outake' sitting in some dusty old box where she says that on a rehearsal take or something. The way the line was written, it was just hanging there waiting to be said.
Under what circumstances do you watch the original?
I float that joke every now and then as I love my coffee black. You can tell by the looks who has seen the movie and who hasn't. I work with all age groups and having been born before the movie and being a guy the reactions are priceless.
I wish the dialogue from the second scene could have been included in the first scene and was played in a movie that was showed in a movie theatre in Jackson, Mississippi in 1957.
Said dialogue wouldn't have been as crass as in Airplane!.
“Do you like movies about Gladiators?”
"Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?"
You ever wonder why little doggies sniff each other the way they do?
Do you ever hang around the gymnasium?
I think those jokes are so awfully funny, they would never be in a movie made nowadays I doubt
Jesus, it doesn't matter how many times I see the look on that kid's face... it gets me every time!
Thanks for the laugh!
Ye're quite welcome! ❤😋
That scene just never gets old 😂
One of many reasons this movie is so great.
Saw Airplane in the theatre when i was like 10, watched this movie at least 300 times, and i never knew this was a parody. What's even better is there is more dialogue from the little girl about her exploits with men that is hilarious. Thank you for posting.
You're quite welcome! 🥰
The look on that kid's face at the end is priceless.

But I am so glad that made it past the censors.
