I had no idea that one of my favorite movies as a teen was actually a parody of a 1950′s film.
We must have seen Airplane! a dozen times by the time I graduated high school. After seeing these clips, I don’t think I could watch Zero Hour! all the way through without reciting dialogue from Airplane!

Hillarious! I had no idea! Surely they didn’t copy the whole thing?
Apparently they licensed “Zero Hour” before they made the film, so it is an actual formal parody of the earlier movie.
After saying you could recite all the lines, you missed an obvious setup there by Ash.
“…and don’t call me Shirley!”
