Surely, you've seen the 1980 disaster-movie parody, Airplane! But, have you seen it recently? (And don't call us "Shirley.") Written and directed by David and Jerry Zucker and Jim Abrahams, the movie was a major hit thanks to all kinds of comedy: surreal and slapstick, sight gags and puns, and more than its share of scatalogical humor. But now, decades later, is any of this a laughing matter? A pedo-pervy pilot? A young girl in need of a transplant? Subtitled jive-talking passengers? They're just a few of the characters being looked at again, this time, through a middle-aged lens. The Old Roommates grab their one-way tickets and give it all a rewatch.
