What's your favorite movie? Is it a remake or a requel? - Often when a movie fan hears that one of their favourite films is going to be remade.

But what they might not realise is the version they love so much is already a remake.

(alternatively titled Flying High!) is a 1980 American parody film written and directed by David and Jerry Zucker and Jim Abrahams in their directorial debuts, and produced by Jon Davison. It stars Robert Hays and Julie Hagerty and features Leslie Nielsen, Robert Stack, Lloyd Bridges, Peter Graves, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Lorna Patterson. It is a parody of the 1957 Paramount film Zero Hour!, from which it borrows its plot and central characters, also drawing many elements from Airport 1975 and other films in the Airport series. It is known for its use of surreal humor and fast-paced slapstick comedy, including visual and verbal puns, gags, running jokes, and obscure humor. Released by Paramount Pictures, it was a critical and commercial success, grossing $171 million worldwide against a budget of $3.5 million. Its creators received the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Adapted Comedy, and nominations for the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy and for the BAFTA Award for Best Screenplay. Since its release, its reputation has grown substantially. It was ranked 6th on Bravo's '100 Funniest Movies'. In a 2007 survey by Channel 4 in the United Kingdom, it was judged the second-greatest comedy of all time, behind Monty Python's Life of Brian. In 2008, it was selected by Empire magazine as one of 'The 500 Greatest Movies of All Time', and in 2012 was voted #1 on 'The 50 Funniest Comedies Ever' poll. In 2010, it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". ► CAST Robert Hays as Ted Striker Julie Hagerty as Elaine Dickinson Leslie Nielsen as Dr. Rumack Peter Graves as Capt.

A remake tells the same story as the original but uses a different cast, and may alter the theme or change the story's setting. A similar but not synonymous term is reimagining, which indicates a greater discrepancy between a movie and the movie it is based on. ► Subscribe to The Loch https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-x4bTqQxUbhcP1v8Fnia1Q?sub_confirmation=1 ► Follow me on Twitter and let me know whats your favourite movie. https://twitter.com/Choppersquadfan (c) 2022 The Loch - What's your favourite movie? / All your Favourite Movies are Remakes #FavouriteMovies #Remakes #requel @davetheloch
