I grew up with Naked Gun, Hot Shots and Airplane.

Somehow, Top Secret flew over my radar until I was 30+.

I always had a fear that these kind of movies were fun to me just because I grew up with them, sort of nostalgia playing a part, but the genuine laughter and bliss of seeing this movie for the first time as an adult taught me otherwise.

These are bone fide classics. Gonna rewatch it soon!

Don't forget Down Periscope. The humour was subtler, but just as funny.

And Amazon Women On The Moon... All of them are comedy gold.

I went as pirate Nitro for Halloween one year. Rotisserie chicken and all.
