Didn't The Blues Brothers come out in '79?

Airplane - one of the funniest movies ever.

"Captain, you've got an emergency call on line 5 from a Mr. Ham."
"Alright, give me Ham on 5 and hold the Mayo."

"Surely, you can't be serious."
"I am serious. And please don't call me Shirley."

"We've got to get these people to a hospital right away."
"A Hospital!!?? What is it?"
"It's a big building with patients in it, but thats not important right now."

"Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit poppin' amphetamines."

"Do you like movies with gladiators in them?"

[GonzoNYC]

Yes! Airplane was just on cable last night.

Blues Brothers is 1980 according to IMDb.
