Watched The Naked Gun (1989)

It ruled. Hadn't seen it since childhood. Still hilarious. Some really inspired bullshit. It reminded me of the Simpsons' good old days.

Great movie. It still holds. Recommend watching Police Squad. The show is even better than the movie.

From Kentucky Fried Movie to Naked Gun, I don't think there's many directors who had such great runs of films in comedy, except maybe Mel Brooks (I totally forgot about High Anxiety in that thread about Mel, and that's fucking amazing).

Top Secret! doesn't get much love, but Kilmer was excellent.

John Belushi did a cameo shortly before he died on an episode that they cut out because his character drowns and they felt it was “too soon” - I think the footage has never been released.

The day OJ died I was giggling away just thinking of this scene. Physical comedy at it's best

OJ Simpson is HILARIOUS

No one does humor like Zucker Abrams Zucker. Super clever but also clean enough for the kids. Weird Al did it in UHF, but it’s still a rare type of comedy. Not a lot of funny people can do it.

Was always my favorite character when I was young because of the physical comedy. He was great.

Don't forget Hot Shots and Part Deux. Both still hold up.

It's a classic. I haven't seen the third, but the second one is pretty good too. Leslie Nielsen was a legend. Of course they are remaking it with Liam Neeson and im sure it will 99.9% be fucking terrible.

I think it'll be fine. It has one of the Lonely Island kids directing, the same one who directed Hot Rod and MacGruber if I remember right. And I really liked MacGruber.

Neeson is dry, which is what Nielsen was at his best. Whenever he went over the top, like "Dracula Dead and Loving It", his humour bombed. His scene in Ted 2 was actually pretty funny, so I'll give it a chance.

I still want a third Hot Shots though.
