Airplane, because it was hyped up to me to such an absurd degree. "The funniest movie of all time" etc. Nah. Not really
Airplane felt like I was going thru a theme park ride being presented with various dioramas, not a huge fan
That's an accurate description. It references a half dozen or so other disaster movies that are now nothing but boring cheese.
Well if I go watch those now, it will be like watching Lynch movies before seeing the Italian movies that deformed his mind. It feels weird like "oh he wanted that kind of guy, but being a different guy"
Yeah, don't bother. I'm just saying that when it came out movie goers had seen at least a couple of the sourse flicks and certainly saw ads for the rest. There's no point in seeing the orginals because they were never very good. Without reference points to what it spoofs, Airplane! has to lose most its humor and instead just feel like a bunch of hype over nothing.
Oh yeah, same vein as Animal House to me. Except less evil than Animal House.
