| Airplane II: The Sequel | comment |
The 1982 sequel to comedy classic film Airplane!, featuring most of the original cast (with the notable exception of Leslie Nielsen, who was busy starring in Police Squad!) and written/directed by Ken Finkleman.Ted Striker, reluctant heroic pilot, has been committed to an insane asylum after attempting to blow the whistle on a faulty prototype lunar shuttle. Elaine, his love interest, has moved on and is engaged to another pilot named Simon. Both are crew members on the shuttle's maiden voyage. Learning of the launch, Ted escapes from the asylum, boards the shuttle, and is forced into the cockpit again as a malfunctioning computer system kills the pilots and sends the spacecraft off course.Although the Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker team had nothing to do with this one, the film tries and largely succeeds at capturing the tone of the original, largely through recycling many of the jokes. | |

Steel Eardrums: Parodied. Bug Kruger and the Commissioner get into an elevator at one point where there are a bunch of other people who have their ears plugged because the elevator muzak version of "MacArthur Park" is playing at full blast. Neither Kruger nor the commissioner see the need to plug their ears. The elevator doors close. When they get off, "Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head" is playing at full blast, and they're still finishing a conversation that started when they got on the elevator. | |

Celebrity Paradox | |
| Airplane II: The Sequel / int_7b8b3def | comment |
Celebrity Paradox: In a scene cut from the final film (though occasionally added to television broadcasts to fill time), we see McCroskey in the Old Folk's Home (for senility) as the nurse mentions that he "...thinks he's Lloyd Bridges." He's hiding under his blankets with a snorkel sticking out of the top. You could say that by this time, his lungs were aching for air. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Airplane II: The Sequel / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Shatner's character looks through the periscope and sees the Enterprise from Star Trek: The Original Series. Captain Oveur attempts to disconnect R.O.K. using the same key that Dave Bowman used to disconnect HAL in 2001. When R.O.K. responds by flooding the area with toxic gas, Oveur fights for survival to the theme to Mission: Impossible, which starred Oveur's actor, Peter Graves. When the shuttle takes off, the song playing is straight from the original Battlestar Galactica theme. In fact, most (if not all) of the movie's soundtrack is actually the Battlestar Galactica theme. The Dramatic Theme played when we see the Mayflower I heading towards the sun is the "dramatic music" from the titles of Galactica's feature-length pilot episode Saga of a Star World. The Galactica pilot music re-usage continues with the "Viper Launch theme" for when Mayflower I goes to 0.5 Worp; the "Cylon Basestar stinger" from the pilot sounds when the dog Scraps grabs Seluchi's bomb briefcase; and the "Nova of Madagon" cue plays during Mayflower I's tilting ramp launch out of Thunderbirds. To Jeopardy!: "Art, I'll take Air Shuttle Disasters for $40." "The answer is....the Mayflower!" R.O.K. is a direct parody of H.A.L. 9000. Seluchi's plan is lifted directly from the original Airport where Van Heflin's character plans to explode a bomb over the Atlantic so his wife can get the insurance. | |

Cow Tools: The machine in Alpha Beta Base that triggers Murdoch's Billions of Buttons Freak Out has no purpose that anyone on the crew can figure out. The lights just keep going back and forth. | |

Black Comedy Pet Death | |
| Airplane II: The Sequel / int_d5b6d628 | comment |
Black Comedy Pet Death: This movie has a brief moment at the beginning where a child asks a security guard if his dog Scraps can go on the shuttle. The guard then says no and shoots the dog, which then falls down. After a beat for everyone to freak out, the guard announces that the gun is loaded with blanks and that Scraps is fine. The dog then gets up and everyone laughs. | |

Waiting Skeleton: This film continues its predecessor's Running Gag of Ted's boring stories making people kill themselves with this gag; after Ted tells an old woman a story, we see that she's now a skeleton. | |

| Airplane II: The Sequel / int_e201cc | comment |
The Bore: Ted's Running Gag of making people Driven to Suicide because he bores them with his reminiscing is taken up to eleven early on with him making what looks like the entire wing of his psychiatric hospital (patient and doctor alike) blow their brains out after he finishes his tale. He also kills a couple of people in the Mayflower. | |

Aside Glance: After Simon takes an escape capsule from the shuttle, Ted Striker says "Simon was a fool to eject now". Elaine asks "You mean...?" Ted turns slightly to look at the audience and says "That's right - premature ejection." | |

Everyone Is Armed: Played for Black Comedy. After Ted Striker bores yet another group of people with his tales, they all pull out revolvers and blow their brains out simultaneously. The scene happens inside of a mental hospital, and most of the people who pull out said guns are patients◊, who should not even have access to said firearms. | |
