The jive black dudes were parodies of characters in Blaxploitation films of the 70s. In fact, the actors came up with their own dialogue, because they felt that the words written by the Zucker brothers didn't go far enough in their absurdity. And the old woman who speaks jive to them later in the film was Barbara Billingsley, who played June Cleaver in the sit-com "Leave It To Beaver". June Cleaver was the ultimate nuclear family stay at home housewife, and was remembered as such by the audiences of this film in 1980. Thus, when she busted out in jive talk, the audiences would go berserk with laughter, watching the premiere submissive white housewife go head to head with the two black brothas.

[@RDRussell2]

Couldn't have said it better myself!

[@breakingames7772]

No they used mostly real jive words ...they made up a few such as Medici but not things like run thru the garden. Jive was very real but only used among others who spoke it...and it was very rare and for a short lifespan when it was in style

[@3DJapan]

People did speak like that but not quite to this extreme.

[@Pulloxx]

In the german dub the dudes talk with an heavy bavarian accent.

[@lordwalker71]

Jive was created by jazz musicians in the 1930’s

[@luckyshot2574]

I wonder if she evn know what she said.

[@JamesBond-ib9tq]

The boys reaction was even funnier

[@kevinstanton5998]

One of my favorite jokes got cut at about 14:28... the pilot at home was fixing his tie in front of a mirror, and as he walked away, his reflection steps out of the mirror

[@TatiJBC]

It took me YEARS to notice this one! 😅😅 Also, it was not long ago I found out about the meaning of the name of the autopilot: Otto, "Otto Pilot" = autopilot. 🤣

[@vandergrad]

It's interesting to me how every single reactor I've seen watching this movie is shocked that smoking was once allowed on a plane. Smoking used to be allowed everywhere!! There was no such thing as "no smoking" in public spaces. Then they started segregating the smokers, hence you got asked "smoking or non-smoking" almost anywhere you went. It was absolutely the norm back then.

[@mathiash.1379]

Glad i am not the only one here who is that old 😁

[@wildmanfisher]

I actually flew from The Netherlands to Indonesia in a smoking section and this was in 2000. I smoked cigarettes back then and I was soooo happy but after hour after hour sitting in that smoke, I felt like crap.

[@robertfalk3767]

The fact it took you 6 tries after the kids coffee skit to actually be able to talk just made my night.

[@sharkdentures3247]

This movie works SO well because ALL the actors/characters "pretended" they were in a "serious" movie (deadpan delivery) and they acted as if ALL the bizarre stuff going on was "perfectly normal". In fact, most of the actors were well established "Dramatic" actors, but for people like Leslie Neilson, THIS launched his career into a new (funnier) trajectory! Also, within the last year or two, I read a comment (forget from whom) on another Airplane reaction video, and they pointed out something that I had missed for the last FORTY YEARS! A "joke" almost everyone misses (me too) is that the background engine sounds throughout the movie flight? Is for a PROPELLER aircraft instead of for an airline jet engine sound! After 40 years, you can STILL discover new things rewatching this film. Oh, and there is also a brief follow up joke post credits. (it's no biggie, just FYI)

[@jspettifer]

Except for Jonnie of course

[@dfhowes]

@@jspettifer Yup! Johnny, the only comedian actor playing . . . a comedian. 😁

[@jspettifer]

[@travisepsteen3234]

Also, I never understood why nobody ever gets the “all together” joke. He said the line “It’s an entirely different kind of flying, all together” as in now you guys say this ALL TOGETHER.

[@JonasCraftUltimate]

it took me watching it like 15 times before i got it lol. the voice demony change becomes the main focus of attention

[@Powerranger-le4up]

I’m laughing a bit. You recognized Jimmie Walker instantly, but it took you a longer time to recognize one of greatest basketball players of all time.

[@matthewzeller5026]

It took like less than half a second, I'm honestly impressed. Even if I recognize someone it will takes way longer to conjure up a name.

[@theprimo100]

There's actually a post-credit scene with the taxi.

[@jenfries6417]

There actually was an after-credits scene with the taxi passenger declaring he'd wait just a little longer. Practically every line in this movie was a reference to some other movie, tv show, advertisement, or pop culture trope of the time. Even the most random lines referred to something, even really obscure things. For instance, in the control tower, when one character says the fog is getting thicker and Johnny the obnoxious secretary jumps in and says, "And Leon's getting larger!" and jumps out again, I read somewhere that was a reference to a local tv ad for a furniture store in the hometown of one of the filmmakers. Apparently, they were always expanding their stores. That was their slogan. A little inside joke for the gang back home.

[@mikeroman5208]

The taxi passenger was Howard Jarvis, who was a California politician known for his stance on fiscal responsibility, thus the joke.

[@ramonacosta2647]

The movie is also a parody of the 1957 disaster flick Zero Hour! Large chunks of dialogue were taken directly from the film.

[@Arthaius]

- It's been so long since I have seen this, but the one scene I remembered from this when the airplane crashes through the bay windows is actually (If I remember correctly), a reference to one of the movies from the Jaws Franchise, where the shark crashes through an underwater viewing window or something, and the scene is nearly identical except the shark is an airplane etc. I am thinking though that MrL Boyd didn't know this reference.

[@markreed392]

The taxi passenger was Howard Jarvis, a businessman and tax activist who is responsible for the 1978 Proposition 13 in California. He would have been recognized at the time.

[@pjd4268]

ahh..that explains the "Leon" joke.. never got it.

[@Don-ol8ze]

"I know you! You're Kareem Abdul-Jabbar!" 🤣 One of my favorite scenes.

[@mscolli3]

Its rare to find someone intellectual enough to get the Mayo Clinic joke... props to you!

[@twrampage]

I've always been surprised by the number of people that seem to miss it.

[@deeanna8448]

Apparently, a lot of people don't know there is a place called the Mayo Clinic so the joke doesn't make sense.

[@boki1693]

You are literally the first reactor I saw that got this joke. The first time I heard of it I was like 5 years old when I was watching "Pride of the Yankees" with my dad. When Lou Gehrig first got sick, he wet to the Mayo clinic to be diagnosed.

[@Lewis9709]

@@twrampage Yeah I missed the Mayo jars on the background until recently.

[@mortimerbrewster3671]

I can't believe how many reactors I've watched who either didn't notice that or didn't mention it.

[@andystewart581]

Yes, smoking on planes was a thing at one time. The smoking sections were in the back rows of the plane. No worries tho. There was a little placard that showed where the smoking and non-smoking seats were separated. Smoke knew not to go past that area. There was also smoking allowed in hospitals, grocery stores etc.

[@darinrezac2112]

Some of the planes in the late 80’s and early 90’s still had the ash tray in the seats….

[@flatebo1]

It wasn't that smoking was allowed in certain areas. It was that smoking was beginning to be prohibited in certain areas. The initial anti-smoking crusade of the 1970s was sold on the notion that non-smokers (mostly those with chronic respiratory problems) just wanted small non-smoking areas in certain businesses like airlines, restaurants, etc set aside so that people with an actual medical problem wouldn't have to endure others literally blowing smoke in their faces. And of course once the anti-smoking moral crusaders got their "reasonable concession" they immediately demanded more concessions. Then more. And more again. Until by the late 1990s restrictions on when/when people could smoke (and the hysteria over second-hand smoke) hit absurd levels of some cities banning all smoking everywhere except - maybe - in your own home or car. For your own good, of course.

[@nikkihayes5411]

@@flatebo1 last time i was touring in france on my bike, i stopped at a bar with two police bikes outside, walked in to find two gendarmes smoking at the bar having coffee...i ordered coffee..looked at the barman...barman pulled out a pack of cigarettes and passed me one..i lit up .....and no one died🏍💨️🏍️💨🏍️💨😈🚬👍

[@Hayseo]

Yes there was closure on the taxi cab guy. You didn’t watch through the end of the credits

[@toodlescae]

The 2 guys speaking jive came up with that themselves because what the writers wrote wasn't working. Then they taught it to Barbara Billingsley who was famous for playing America's suburban housewife in Leave It To Beaver.

[@aaronburdon221]

Seeing June Cleaver speaking jive is the best thing in the movie in my opinion.

[@MGower4465]

You don't remember the magical smoking section on airplanes in the 80s? The two jive guys write their own lines - jive cropped up now and then but it was kinda like Valspeak - it hit mainstream and died instantly, but you rarely heard anybody hse it outside movies from a very narrow span of time. They had to coach Barbara Billingsley in her lines, delivery and body language. The three had so much fun crafting that scene they stayed friends long after they wrapped up their parts.

[@jonathangruber7793]

Love learning new behind-the-scenes trivia about movies and other things I like. It adds more context and texture to them. Thus establishing a deeper connection as well. Thank you for sharing!!

[@ShadowmonkStudios]

Gotta love having the smoking section in a sealed environment... Kinda like having a peeing section in your pool...

[@EvHervey]

YES!!! YES!! Somebody got the "Mayo Clinc" Joke! FINALLY!

[@iandude1]

The character who says "Where did you get those shoes and that dress" is possibly the most underrated character in the whole movie, Johnny. He gets some great moments and lines throughout this and the 2nd movie.

[@cardsfanboy]

Johnny was the best, this review didn't do him justice. I think I quote him more than any other person from this movie after it came out ("Leon's getting larger" " There's a sale at Penny's" and of course him unplugging the lights, "just kidding." )

[@CorporalCookie]

Especially considering that he was allowed to make up his own lines as he went. None of the other actors knew what he would do.

[@firefly24601]

Johnny is the most hilarious thing in this movie. And that's saying something!

[@kylestubbs8867]

He was the only character who seemed to _know_ it was a comedy.

[@t0dd000]

"I take it black. Like my men." .... slaughtered me. Ha!

[@spindletopcenter]

The Molimbos were the Harlem Globetrotters and the nice Japanese soldier was James Wong (Blade Runner: "I design your eyes!")

[@dfhowes]

And this is why, even after watching Airplane! many, many times (including when it was first released) is why I read the comments sections. I just learned about the Harlem Globetrotter trivia a few years ago.

[@NoelMcGinnis]

One of the most amazing things about this movie is that, at that point in their careers, none of the actors had ever done comedy before. All of them were willing to completely ridiculous and really funny. Several ended up doing a lot of comedy (Leslie Nielsen especially) after this movie was so successful.

[@gregorydumeynieu8264]

For a real eye opener into this movie you should review the videos that showcase the Zero Hour/Airplane movies side by side comparisons. Airplane is nearly a shot by shot remake of the other movie, and seeing them together reveals a lot of hidden things (like why a jet engine makes a prop engine sound)

[@baronvonscharfenberg]

Zucker/Abrahams/Zucker actually bought rights to Zero Hour from Paramount so they wouldn't have to worry about it being so close to the original.

[@TatiJBC]

For people reading the comments: in this movie, Zero Hour, they just cast one of the most famous sports player back then to be the second pilot (not sure if was a basketball one). For no reason at all but calling public's attention (probably). That explains the joke with the presence of Kareem Abdul and only the kid recognizes him as a player. This movie is so amazing! ❤️

[@baronvonscharfenberg]

@@TatiJBC Elroy "Crazylegs" Hirsh, halfback/end/receiver for the Chicago Rockets (1946-1948) and Los Angeles Rams (1949-1957).

[@jamesoblivion]

That's not green/blue screen compositing, it's rear projection, where the actors are in front of a big screen, and the background is projected onto it from behind. It was a practice well out of fashion by the 80s, but used here specifically as a joke.

[@KunraVong]

Just wanted to add that this movie sums up the 70's. This was the 70's. Weird and Strange.

[@stephenlabarre7890]

there are so many subtle 'jokes' in this movie; jet powered airplane that sounds like a propeller driven one, Striker in the Air Force - but wearing a navy uniform, skits mimicking TV commercials of the film's era, and so much more. Some of the humor is missed by most unless you're old enough to know the reference. For that reason, this movie (albeit still humorous) will lose its edge more and more as it gets older. Still, a lot of the content is eternal. A pie in the face is still a pie in the face.

[@MCDreng]

yep. pop culture references will come and go... but "surely you can't be serious? / I am serious and don't call me Shirley" is forever.

[@CitiesTurnedToDust]

Almost no reactors ever notice the prop plane sound. Also, seems like nobody gets the joke when Elaine says -- "It takes many things to make love last. But most of all, it takes respect. And I can't live with a man I don't respect" that was a turn on the trope that she should be leaving because she's not *getting* respect, not because she doesn't *have* respect. Nobody seems to comment on why he's suddenly sitting next to a WWII Japanese soldier. Finally, I almost never see any reactors comment on the fact that all of Ted's war memories are ludicrous because it's 1979/1980 and he's got memories of World War 2 dogfights and, later early flying mishaps from the 1900s-1920s

[@billolsen4360]

Have seen this movie 100 times but love to see when younger people get are exposed to these gags for the 1st time it's a joy to watch all over again.

The directors were in Germany and observed a screening there and they were surprised to hear the audiences laughing hard at the "Jive Subtitles" scenes. When they asked one of the locals, they explained that the subtitles were in basic German but the spoken parts were in the Bavarian dialect, and no one else in German can understand Bavarians.

This was Leslie Neilson's first comedic role. The role before this was the "Poseidon Adventure" was his last serious role. He was a serious actor for a while, even was the romantic lead in "Tammy and the Pilot" I believe. For future, I hope you react to "Clue" and to "Robin Hood Men In Tights". It fits in line with some of the other movies you've seemed to like.

[@reddirtwalker8041]

The back story of this film is that the movie AIRPORT came out in the early 70's and started a trend of "disaster" movies that all did well... and then a series of really crappy disaster movies followed that were thrown together just to try to make money. So, by the early 80's the whole genre was just begging to be spoofed. Enter a screenwriter who had made a dramatic airplane disaster movie back in the 1950's who was willing to spoof his own film. So, almost scene-for-scene, they took every line and turned it on its ear with a massive dose of dad-jokes. And the result was pure comedy gold!!

[@tranya327]

A gentle correction on one of the facts presented above: - The film ZERO HOUR! (1957) on which AIRPLANE! is based, was written by Hal Bartlett, Arthur Hailey, and John Champion. AIRPLANE! (1980) was written by the Zucker brothers and Jim Abrahms (based on the earlier film written by the three previous writers). Main point: It wasn't the three people (or any subset of them) from the 1950s who were willing "to spoof his own film." My understanding is that the AIRPLANE! creators bought the rights to the original film, so that they could do what they wanted with it. The thrust of your other point is entirely correct: AIRPLANE! killed the whole 'straight drama disaster film' trend that had been gathering momentum and which was by that point, overdone. The film is directly spoofing ZERO HOUR!, and indirectly spoofing the various AIRPORT films of the 1970s, and (even more indirectly) spoofing the entire genre of non-airport disaster flicks (Earthquake, The Towering Inferno, The Poseidon Adventure...)

[@ganggreen9012]

It wasn't green screen but old school projection on a background. The actors were in a mock-up of the car and various backgrounds were projected on a movie screen behind it. The "car" would be on a platform that could be manipulated to give it motion that would look like hitting a bump etc.

[@Whateva67]

Yes and it was done poorly on purpose to make it funnier

[@jhilal2385]

The dance scene is a reference to John Travolta in "Saturday Night Fever" The beach scene is a reference to a famous scene in "From Here To Eternity". The plane crashing through the window, as well as the hysterical woman being slapped and the arguing PA announcers are references to a series of movies "Airport", "Airport '75", "Airport '77", and "Airport '79".

[@mytech6779]

Its awsome you immediately recognized the old piston engine sound track for the jet, most modern reactors miss that. In 1980 most of the audience would have experienced both. The kids with coffee are directly reading lines from a movie called Zero Hour that is being parodyed by Airplane! except for the additional "like my men" The lady with the inner voice and her husband are the actors from this commercial kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3uXnHZ8Z5eCaNk

You are going to love: Hot Shots (1991), Hot Shots Part Deux (1993), Loaded Weapon (1993) & Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993).

[@nthman123]

the punchline to the taxi bit was post credits.🚖

[@jRoy7]

If you're going to keep rocking the parody films, The Naked Gun is mandatory.

[@JakkFrost1]

I'd say the mandatory list is, in no particular order: Naked Gun Top Secret Hot Shots National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1 most of Mel Brooks' oeuvre and any available sequels. Honorable mention goes to Police Academy. Not specifically a parody, but it does feature an old gray-haired white guy who steals the show!

[@dwaynedoody7576]

Just watched this earlier today. Ty for noticing things I missed (especially the mayo & that lady knocking out the IV). This review & the movie cracked me up.

[@ramonacosta2647]

This reaction should be called Everything Wrong with Airplane in 20 Minutes.

[@73jefft]

It's a little weird that you recognized Jimmy Walker instantly but took a minute to recognize Kareem. But nonetheless, I'm here for it!

[@Kebmo338]

This movie is actually a shot for shot remake parody of a movie called Zero Hour. Theres a comparison clip on youtube that will blow your mind.

[@grifirnyc]

I've loved this movie since I saw it in theaters. And your reaction is just so much fun. One thing that I just had to look up though, when you commented on Randy , the flight attendant, saying she was 26. Of course she wasn't. Lorna Patterson turned 24 the day before Airplane! was released in theaters.

[@ninjabluefyre3815]

Finally somebody who gets the horse joke!

[@mikejankowski6321]

It was her Catherine the Great moment.

[@JakkFrost1]

@@mikejankowski6321 well there are... toys for wpmen on the market that are shaped like horse phalluses, so it's apparently a fairly popular notion. 😳

[@CitiesTurnedToDust]

Jee whiz you're not old enough to remember the 70s, where smoking was allowed almost literally everywhere? Except not in hospital surgeries...it wasn't quite as bad as the 1950s.

[@hockemeyer1]

Yes, that 70s Jive talk. They are on a jet plane but the engines sounds are of a prop plane like a DC 6. This was a parody of the 1970s movie series call Airport. There were a slew of disaster movies in the 70s.

[@jimbobeire]

Also, almost a shot for shot remake of _Zero Hour_ which is where the aircraft engine noise was lifted from, as that involved an airliner with propellors.

[@trueyinyang7941]

LOL Mr. Boyd losing it at coffee scene

[@paulinegarrity4003]

They recruited older dramatic actors. Lloyd Bridges, Peter Graves, Robert Stack. This was the first comedic role for most of them.

[@erikipedia]

There were SO MANY plane crashes in the '70s and '80s. Playing on that when it was still raw was just like Blazing Saddles.

[@SailorYuki]

The taxi guy is an after credit scene. Way before it's time. But he's still sitting in the cab.

[@reflectionist]

Dude, I damn near swallowed my blunt when I recognized June Cleaver speaking "Jive"

[@scgreek1114]

The movie is a parody of the 1970 disaster movie "Airport." There are at least 20 other parodies of movies, TV shows and even commercials, which means it was even funnier to contemporary audiences.

[@tonygourdine512]

Satire my brotha, Satire !!! A seemingly lost art !

[@whyaddnamehere]

I remember flying when I was a young kid and we were near the smoking section in the back. It's funny to see reactors now be confused about smoking on a plane.

[@evaserration6223]

I didn't realise this film was pretty much a shot for shot parody of a specific film called Zero Hour! Having watched bits of it, I can see where the creepy Flight Captain character came from. In that film it was a mostly benign mentor figure to the boy but did give creepy vibes in the performance. This movie just brought those traits to the forefront.

[@breakingames7772]

Even funnier, they didn't use a jet noise they use a world war II airplane noise for all the outside shots of the airplane flying

[@Trashbd]

The horse in the bead is a reference to "The godfather", next movie should be "Top Secret" it's like Airplane! but on drugs, same author, same directors, same everything but the cast. And also, when watching a ZAZ-movie don't miss the the credits, you'll find some wonderful recipes and other good stuff in them.
