      Stephen Chow's source of inspiration

      I originally thought that "Flying All Over the Sky" was a reasoning film or something, but I didn't expect it to be a comedy film made in the early 1980s in the United States. And there are a lot of shadows in the movie of the star, or more correctly, the shadow of this film in the movie of the star. For example, the male protagonist Ted told the passenger sitting next to him on the plane about his love history. The people next to him couldn’t bear his endless talk. The three of them...

      The originator of the spoof! !

         The first two-thirds of the film can be said to be wonderful, many funny methods can be called excellent, when I think it is funny, it doesn't do it, and when I don't pay attention, it makes me laugh abruptly. Many of the sections in it were imitated by later movies, such as the section where the Tang monk in the Westward Journey said that the fairy was dead. I think the funniest passage is the one about the guitar. The baggage that suddenly shakes out in the sound of nature is...

      Humor can be endless

      The time difference between the opening of the mainland and Hong Kong has created Zhou Xingxing's supreme status in the mainland.
      In fact, he is not a creator, but just a good imitator.
      Many details have become Zhou Xingchi's mirror.
      For example, when we advertise, we often sigh at the award-winning works of large companies. Later, we learned that it was copied from a foreign company. It turned out that large companies took advantage of the complete information, so that...

      See how Americans go to space funny and scared

          Ning Meng occasionally laughed after watching a funny film "Flying in the Sky" and the sequel "Flying in the Sky" made in the 1980s in the United States. For this reason, Zhou Xingchi's so-called "nonsensical" is contemptuous.

          The Hong Kong translation of "Unprecedented and Unparalleled Flying in the Sky" is "Funny Horror Goes to Space"; "Hidden Sky Flying Over the Sea" is called "Funny Horror Goes to the Moon". In fact, it was originally the originator of...

      Suddenly, I thought about it and wanted to sort out the smiles that I could recall

      Most of them are based on memories, and memory discrepancies are inevitable.

      a. "Don't worry, they have the (pilot) instrument" – the next act is the four playing (musical) instrument in the cockpit

      I don't like spoofing, but a certain classmate must tell us to hold on to it. This is a film that makes us laugh every second, and all of us fell asleep on the sofa. . Parody is never...

      It's really Kareem; the inflatable navigator can even change his expression = = the doctor asked the hospital? what is it= = the male pig asked what is the captain's room... God Lightning cooperates with the plot; there is even an Easter egg after the ending song; spoof The regulars of the film are meaningless lines repeated; much worse than the anti-fighting...

    Evaluation action

    The film is a landmark hilarious comedy, and the whole film is presented at a fast-paced pace. Even if you watch it again after thirty years, it still makes people feel fresh and interesting.  (Comment by "Daily Telegraph")
    This spoof disaster film has more comedy gimmicks than any other movie. The screenwriters and directors did not leave any clichés when dealing with funny passages, and its humorous content was fresh and...

    • Steve McCroskey: [seeing airplane from tower] It's coming right at us!

      [he then jumps out of a window]

    • [looking at the controls of the airplane as he begins to try to fly it]

      Ted Striker: Let's see... altitude: 21,000 feet. Speed: 520 knots. Level flight. Course: zero-niner-zero. Trim and mixture: wash, soak, rinse, spin.

    • Jack: What's going on? We have a right to know the truth!

      Rumack: [to the passengers] All right, I'm going to level with you all. But what's most important now is that you remain calm. There is no reason to panic.

      [Rumack's nose grows an inch long]

      Rumack: Now, it is true that one of the crew members is ill... slightly ill.

      [Rumack's nose continues to grow longer and longer, à la Pinocchio]

      Rumack: But the other two pilots... they're just fine. They're at the controls flying the plane... free to pursue a life of religious fulfillment.
