videos involving aeroplanes

'Airplane without the jokes' got pulled from youtube by Paramount after 50,000 views in 3 days. Since then it's been shown appropriately enough in Los Angeles. Here it is, for a while at least.

Someone has now ripped it and put it back on the web (password protected - the password is 'airplane' and the link is here

There is an apocryphal story of Groucho Marx meeting the Pope. On being introduced, the Pope said 'Thank You Mr Marx for all the humour you have put into the world.' Groucho replied 'And thank you for all the humour you have taken out of the world'. 'Airplane, a melodrama!' is a Hollington & Kyprianou re-edit of one of the funniest films of all time with all the gags taken out.

Running time 14 minutes.


'Blimey – you’ve spoofed the spoof. I reckon you’ve almost re-created Airport 75!!!' - Sharon from marketing

'How can you take all the gags from an a priori gag? Well you failed.... Its fuckin funny.......' - Aaron from Ireland

Oh god, it's like a sexual encounter that just doesn't reach orgasm.. I cannot take it! - anon

That was soul-crushingly banal. - anon

'Banal? You must not have seen the original. If you had, you'd both marvel at how the editors reached in and snatched the spine of the plot out of the body of the original comedy, as well as chuckled at references to jokes that viewers of this version didn't see. (Just one example: when the flight attendant speaks to the two black guys, we laugh at remembering that they spoke "jive" in the original---and we laugh at them *not* speaking "jive" here....) I can see how someone who hasn't seen the original found it banal, but I also think that's the point....' - anon

'The concept alone is enough to make one crack a smile.' Jack, Iowa Judge
