On this day, December 10, 1982, the comedy Airplane II: The Sequel premiered in theaters. Starring Robert Hays, Julie Hagerty, Lloyd Bridges, and William Shatner, this follow-up to the 1980 classic Airplane! took the laughs to new heights with its outrageous humor and absurd gags.

The sequel shifts the action to space as Ted Striker (Hays) finds himself trying to save a lunar shuttle mission gone hilariously wrong. While it didn’t quite match the iconic status of the original, Airplane II delivered plenty of laughs and remains a memorable part of 80s comedy.
