According to Wikipedia’s entry on Zero Hour! the Zuckers bought the rights to the film so they could use the dialog verbatim.

patrickrhone:

Airplane vs. Zero Hour (widescreen) (via flipflomas)

Proves the fact that the classic film comedy Airplane was a shot by shot send-up of the serious 1957 film, Zero Hour.

There are many cases like this in film. For instance, the 1989 movie Heathers has many shots and plot points with the 1976 film Massacre at Central High. 

Just further proof that few ideas are truly original, especially in Hollywood.

Baldwin has a role as a voice actor in the Xbox 360 game Halo 3 as the voice of marines and the voice of Dutch in Halo 3 ODST. He is joined in this capacity by former Firefly colleagues Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk. The personality each of these actors are given in the game are similar to those from their characters in Firefly. At several points in the game he is heard to shout “Have a taste of/Say hello to Vera!”, a direct reference to his favorite gun in the show. The line “sure would be nice if we had some grenades,” from the movie Serenity, appears. Dutch also shouts ‘Gorram’ when hit, ‘Gorram’ being a Galactic swearword used in Firefly.
