Funny moments in Airplane II: The Sequel. Examples for the original Airplane! go here.
- When Ted escapes the asylum in with spotlights searching for him, he passes singer Jack Jones in a spotlight singing The Love Boat theme into a mike.
- You open doors on the moonbase by going 'Hssst' at them.
- Elaine tells the passengers that they're half a million miles off course, missing a navigational system, and being bombarded by asteroids. The passengers remain calm.Random Passenger: Miss, are you telling us absolutely everything?Elaine: Not exactly. We're also out of coffeeCommence Mass Freak Out
- As all the passengers are panicking and fighting:Flashing Sign: DON'T PANIC (sign catches fire) OKAY, PANIC
Elaine: Listen to me! Your crew is in complete control of the situation!
Flashing Sign: BULLSHIT
Elaine: Trust me, there's absolutely nothing to worry about!
Flashing Sign: UNBELIEVABLE BULLSHIT
- As all the passengers are panicking and fighting:
- "Oh, cut the bleeding heart crap, Stryker. We've all got our buttons, lights, and knobs to deal with. I mean, out here, I am literally surrounded by hundreds and thousands of buttons, lights, and knobs. They're blinking and they're beeping and they're flashing and they're BEEPING AND THEY'RE FLASHING!"
- The joke here is that William Shatner said that.
- The base trying to figure out what all the lights do.
- Also when he's shown Ted Striker's record: "Ted Striker's 400 Polka Favorites", complete with a cover picture of Striker playing an accordion.
- Finally, he looks through the periscope while going on a rambling monologue about how Ted is responsible for the lives of everyone on that ship, then stops and backs away from the periscope at whatever he just saw. Cut to Stock Footage of the Starship Enterprise cruising along.
- Ted requests a screwdriver. And of course, Elaine hands him a drink. Extra funny: Ted still has a drinking problem.
- "Excuse me...I know this isn't the place. I mean, I know I don't know you. But...I don't think we're gonna live through this, and I've...never been with a man before."
- Extra points: The third time the girl does this, she says this TO A DONKEY.
- This scene, especially the visual gag involving (what at first appears to be) a video chat screen.
- "Why the hell aren't I notified about these things?"
- "We could just try ignoring it, sir."
- Premature evacuation (dramatic lightning strike).
- DANGER: VACUUM
- "EXPLOSIVE" "DYNAMITE" "A MUST SEE"
- When Mccroskey asks for any ideas, this line is a hoot:Jacobs: How about a game show like Hollywood Squares but with kids? Gary Coleman could host.
- Weirdly enough, they had actually done something similar during that show's original run, as Storybook Squares, where the celebrities portrayed famous fairy-tale characters or historical figures.
- And on the subject of game shows, Art Fleming and the Jeopardy! board showing up randomly.
- A woman being interviewed on TV about the flight goes off on a completely irrelevant political rant, prompting the station's sign-language interpreter to roll her eyes and start making a "jerk off" motion.
- The solution to stopping the computer.Ted: Elaine, I think we'll have to blow the computer.Elaine: *looking sheepish* Blow R.O.C.?R.O.C.: *screen turns into a happy face*
