Airplane II: The Sequel (aka Flying High II) (1982)

Ted Striker, Elaine and Captain Clarence Oveur are again aboard a doomed flight, this time to the moon, in this lesser sequel to 'Airplane!' (Flying High) that has plenty of dopey laughs in its first half but like the Mayflower One, short circuits and comes crashing down in its second.

Airplane! / Flying High (1980)

There are two types of people in the world: those that watch this cornball comedy classic with crossed-arms, po-faced, and others who snort and guffaw and howl with laughter at the disaster movie spoof full of daggy dad jokes, puns, sight gags, and Peter Graves' deadpan inappropriateness.
