Default Airport and Airport 1975


Fair enough. For the record I was as-yet unborn when the first film
came out, and not long walking for the second. In my opinion, though,
some shots might have been better left out altogether, leaving it to
the imagination.

I'll also say this about the generation gap. I clearly missed the days
when people dressed up to fly, or when flight attendants flirted with
anybody.

In regards to special effects, it was 1975 fercryinoutloud. IMO you are
critiquing that aspect of the movie through a point of view augmented by time
and the incredible realism leap thanks to digital special effects. At the
time the effects actually were not as bad as time now makes them.
