It's one of only a few comedies I can watch over and over. Airplane I,
Airplane II, Young Doctors in Love, So Fine (VHS), Moving Violations,
Blues Brothers, and maybe a couple more I can't recall at this moment,
are some others.

That was a very funny characterization Al Lewis did.
I did not care all that much for the romantic interludes - they seemed
out of place in a fast-paced comedy.

Our revels now are ended. These are actors as I foretold
you were all spirits and are melted into air, into thin air,
and like the baseless fabric of this vision, the cloud-capped
towers, the gorgeous palaces, the solemn temples, the great
globe itself, yea, and all that it inherits, has dissolved,
and like this insubstantial pageant faded, leaves not a rack
behind. We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little
life is rounded with a sleep.
