I pick Amy Pohler as Rusty the blonde stewardess and Tina Fey as Elaine.

Patrick Stewart for the doctor. Jeff and Beau Bridges as the tower guys.

Not sure who the hero should be. Neil Patrick Harris?

Air Israel please clear the runway showing an airplane wearing a beard and beanie. 2 black guys speaking jive. The movie pulled no punches when it came to ethnic stereotypes. Unfortunately, they could never make another movie like that in today's PC world. Nor would I want to see a politically correct airplane remake, sequel whatever. The movie was funny and let it be what it is.

Yeah right.

A remake of Airplane in this politically correct society would be utter crap.

No... that's just what they'll be expecting us to do!

Movies like that can't be remade. The public now expects that kind of humor, and writers don't know how to write straight faced comedy anymore. Hence the Scary Movie series.

What's your vector Victor?
Possibly the next most popular line behind the "Surely" (Shirley) line?

We have clearance Clarence.
Roger Roger. What's our vector Victor?


And the only good part from Airplane 2

Unger, didn't you serve under Oveur in the Air Force?

Unger: Not directly. Technically, Dunn was under Oveur and I was under Dunn.

Dunn: Yep.

Simon: So, Dunn, you were under Oveur and over Unger.

Unger: Yep.

Clarence Oveur: That's right. Dunn was over Unger and I was over Dunn.

Unger: So, you see, both Dunn and I were under Oveur, even though I was under Dunn.

Clarence Oveur: Dunn was over Unger, and I was over Dunn.

Just have to have Trey Parker and Matt Stone do it.
